Because Of The Bucket List

Chapter 5

"Hey what are we all doing tonight?" Seth asks us, while we're at lunch. Layla, Camryn, and I have planned a girls night tonight. Were going to Layla's house and having a slumber party. After school, were all going to the store and buying tons of junk food. Layla has a huge selection of scary movies were going to watch.

"No plans yet. What would you ladies like to do?" Ryan asks.

"Nope. Were having a girls night at my house. You guys having to find someone else to tolerate your asses tonight." Layla tells them.

"Yup. No boys allowed." Camryn says.

"Fine!" Seth huffs. "We don't have to hang out with you women." He pouts and we all laugh.

"Yeah, we'll just go to a party and get drunk." Ryan laughs.

After school, we go to the store and get all of our supplies for the night. We get lots of ice cream and Nutella. Camryn gets chips, dips, and drinks. We pay for our things and go to Starbucks. I get a large chocolate chip frappe. We go by my house to get some over-night clothes and leave my mom a note saying where I'm going. I pack lightly and Layla tells me to pack my bikini. We make one more stop at Camryn's house before going to Layla's.

We get to Layla's house and put some of the food away. Since it's almost 6 o'clock, we put in a movie and eat. Camryn picks the first movie. She picks Pitch Perfect. After her movie, we watch The Hunger Games and get half way through a scary movie called Flu. The doorbell rings and we all jump.

"No, no, no." Layla whines, getting up from the couch.

"What?" Camryn and I say in unison.

"Hey ladybugs!" I hear Seth yell, as him and the guys walk in.

"No!" Camryn yells.

"What babe? You didn't miss me?" Caiden laughs.

"You guys aren't supposed to be here. Couldn't you find a party to go to or something?" Layla cries.

"We did." Jace laughs, pointing around the room. We all sigh and know the boys aren't leaving.

"So what are we doing?" I ask.

"Swimming!" Seth yells and runs outside. Everyone agrees and we go get changed.

I put on my bikini and put my hair into a long ponytail. I feel almost naked. I didn't plan on guys being here, so I just grabbed a random bikini I had. Now, I regret that decision. The girls finish up and we grab some towels.

We get to the pool to see all the guys jumping and splashing around. They're acting like animals. I notice none of them are wearing shirts anymore. My hormones go crazy. I don't have feelings for any of the guys, but they all look really hot. I look at Ryan, who seems to have a perfect six pack. In fact, all the guys do. It must be because they work out for hockey. I notice Jace seems different. He's happy and laughing. I don't think I've ever seen him laugh. I skim my eyes all over his body; from his wet, scruffy hair, to his small birthmark on his left hip. He's gorgeous. They all are. But, there's something different about Jace. Something different in his eyes. He puts on a tough face, but so do I. Maybe he's been through a rough life? Or maybe he's just an ass.

"Come on, Pea. Get in." Ryan yells at me, from the pool. I realize everyone is already in the pool and I'm the only one who isn't.

I get in the pool and try to stay to myself.

"What's wrong?" A voice asks from behind me. I recognize the voice as Jace. I feel the warmth of his breath on my neck and quickly turn around.

"Nothing." I shortly reply.

"Okay. Well Mrs. Richardson talked to me. We have an Algebra test on Monday. I'll be at your house at 3 o'clock Sunday, if that works for you." He says.

"You don't have to." I tell him.

"Yes I do." He replies and swims to everyone else.

Well this should be fun.
