Chapter 102
My heart was racing but a run was exactly what I needed. The fresh air in my face, the quietness, time to clear my head. Bending over I rested my hands on my knees. It sure was a lovely morning. I had been up with the birds even watched the sun rise. Taking a sip of water I put my earphone back in and continued my run all the way home. Reaching my back gate my breathing was heavy but I felt good. I hadn’t run in a while, it was something I needed to get back into.
Switching on the kettle I left the back door open letting the fresh air in. It was hot today. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on.

I did notice the shoes at the front door meaning Pete stayed over.
I hadn’t heard from Jake since seeing him last night but that was a good thing. It meant he was giving me the space I asked for.
After showering and changing into fresh clothes I pulled my hair up into a messy bun. The heat was going to be a killer today. Putting my glasses on I grabbed my kindle and my now luke warm coffee and went back downstairs.
It was almost noon when Lana made an appearance. Pete was leaving out the back way. “You pissed him off”. He asked stopped by where I was sat.
“I don’t think that’s any of your business”. I said. He hadn’t spoken two words to me last night and now he thought he could involve himself in my business.
“Fucking is when’s he’s like a loose cannon. Sort your shit out. We don’t need the hassle p>
“Whatever”. I glared at his back as he walked away. Why did they all feel the need to involve themselves with us?
“Hey girl”. She yawned taking a seat next to me.
“Hey”. Turning my kindle off I finished what was left of my coffee.
“Heard you come in last night. Party not good p>
“Something like that p>
“You want to go to the beach today, soak up some sun, it’ll just be like old times and we could go out later if you fancy it p>
“Yes, yes let’s do that”. We hadn’t been out together in ages and right now I needed some time with the girls.
“I’ll text Alanna and see if she wants to come p>
“Maybe don’t tell her about going out tonight just yet”. She would grass me in to Jake and no doubt he would show up tonight. “Okay”. She frowned.
“She’ll tell Jake and he’ll show up”. I shrugged.
“Is that really a bad thing. I know when I’m drunk I like a little you know what”. She winked.
“No Lana”. I sighed.
“Fine I’ll tell them to meet us at the beach for 2. I’m going to get showered p>
I’m guessing everyone had the same idea are us. The beach was packed and I wasn’t sure we were going to get a space.
“I brought a little something to get us started”. Alanna grinned as she pulled out a bottle of shots.
“Oh hell yes”. Lana laughed.
“Looks like we’ll struggle to get a space”. Lacey added.
“No we won’t”. Lana winked as she pulled down her shorts and removed her top. “Follow my lead girls p>
Rolling my eyes I followed behind my eyes wandering around to see if I recognised anyone. A few here and there from school. My stomach dropped when my eyes landed on the girl from yesterday, Sarah. Prancing around in a tiny bikini making sure she had the attention she needed.
The girl was beautiful and I was no competition on her. Hearing the giggle I grinned knowing Lana had bagged us a good space.
“And you guys don’t mind if we sit here?”. She smiled resting her hand on her hip. She was way to good at that.
