JADE'S POV   I don't know if this is the universe plotting against me or anything but I'm stuck with him now.   Yeah, I know I'd initially agreed to share his suite with him for the trip and all, but after seeing him with Lizzy again, I didn't think I wanted to anymore.   It isn't what I signed up for after all and I'm not sure I can handle having her in the same space after our last encounter but that's something that's gonna be unavoidable if I'm sharing his space.   Of course she'll come waltzing in every now and again to visit and I don't even want imagine finding them making out.   Makes me want to retch, thinking about it.   So with that in mind, I naturally showed up for room balloting.   Yeah, balloting.   That's when all the available room keys are dumped in one bowl and we come pick one up randomly.

JADE'S POV   Today is day one the trip and not so surprisingly, the first activity on the list is hiking.   Yeah, there's no surprise here because just behind this hotel that were staying at is a wide spread of good land that leads to what I'd describe as a beautiful hiking trail.   It'd been hiked by the hotel staffs a lot too when they were rattling on and on about how choosing their hotel is one of the best choices we've made.   It's early in the morning and I'm setting out my things on the bed so I can get ready.   I'm sure everyone is probably still getting in an extra fifteen minutes of sleep but I have to do my business now because I share the suites bathroom with Caden.   I don't want to get in his way or have him walk in on me while I'm in the tub or something, that would be like super awkward.   Speaking of him, I don't know wha

JADE'S POV   My problem is not with fact that Ches had a thing with Kyle, I mean anyone would bite that chunk of hot male piece.   My problem is with the fact that she sounds so smitten by him, like someone who is developing some kind of feelings for him.   It might be too early to tell though and I might be dealing with just unfounded paranoia, but I don't think I can be blamed for looking out for my friend.   Kyle is a popular manwhore in school, the kind that's known to have been in and out of many girls panties and trust me I know the type, and if someday she starts to want more than just sex, she'd only end up getting hurt.   They ain't gonna settle because some good girl out here decides to fall helplessly for them.   I know that first hand, and that's because I'm being stupid and not taking my own advice.   I'm low key envious of h

JADES POV It's funny having Caden offer me a piggy back ride because of my injury and realizing he is serious about it only made it weird. He doesn't look the part and the Caden Adam Jones we all know will never let himself be caught doing something like that on a normal, or so you understand my confusion and then later decline of the offer. I notice my refusal to get on his back pissed him off but since he doesn't mention it, I let it slide too. He can't be getting pissed about trivial things like that, when he's been a big bunch of provocation since joining Matt, Ches and myself. Since I adamantly refused to be carried on his back, he finally settles for holding up and supporting my weight, almost just like Matt had been doing. I hear him mutter promises to be more careful with me and blah blah blah while supporting me. It takes a lot to accept the idea of limping the rest of the distance and a couple tries to get used to it. Matt is too pissed by all of Caden's theatrics to

CHELSEA'S POVI love my best friend, Jade, with everything I am, but sometimes, I can't help being so envious of her.Even though she doesn't have the best relationship with her family and all, every other aspect of her life seems to be doing so great it just hurts my eyes.I sigh as I continue down the path i'd started on just a while ago, alone, because I needed a break from the drama between her and her beaus.Her grades are perfect for one and she has Caden on her tail like a love sick puppy and it's worse that she's so blind to all his advances.Yeah, it's kind of annoying watching her play dumb to his feelings and claiming he's only doing the thing he does because they'd been best friends once upon a time and all.Dude isn't the kind of person to get jealous of her growing closeness with Matt just because they'd been friends or because he wants to stay friends or anything.It's clear even to the blind that Caden Adam Jones has the hots for her except my thick headed girlie is wor
