AJ LEE, Emma, and Summer were waiting behind the door. They could hear whispers outside. They were waiting for Paige to enter the house. AJ saw Summer shoot the clock a look. AJ smiled, because one of the hands was getting closer to the six. In a couple of seconds, the three girls will have a reason to go out and get the younger girl.
AJ turned to the door when she saw that Paige was entering. The pale girl entered and. She looked at her three roommates, her eyes wide.
"He said ten thirty," AJ told the Brit, with a frown on her face. But she wasn't really mad, she was actually excited. It was Paige's first date, and it like seeing a younger sibling going on a date. The protective nature was stronger. But seeing the happy look on Paige's face made her happy as well.
Paige just laughed at the comment. "It's just one minute. And it was my fault." She placed a huge stuffed animal on the ground. It was a huge stuffed dog.
AJ's eyes stayed on the bear for a second later. She was so sure the bear was almost as big as she was. It freaked her out a bit. She felt like the bear could eat her alive.
"Did you have fun?" Emma asked. She grabbed Paige's hand and pulled her towards the kitchen. AJ and Summer followed them.
Paige nodded, as she moved to sit on the table. The other three girls sat around, and all turned to the younger girl. "I had the best time. He was sweet. Nothing was awkward, and we won each other stuffed animals."
AJ couldn't help but smile at the look on Paige's face. AJ couldn't remember seeing her so happy before.
"I'm glad you had a great time. It's still early. Want to tell us what you guys did?" Summer asked.
Paige nodded and told them everything. She told him about the carnival. She told them about winning Saraya (Emma and Summer gushed over the name). She then told them about how Seth won her Colby (again the blondes gushed). Then about them riding the roller-coaster until Seth almost threw up. They went out for dinner, but ate in the car.
"How is that good? It's your first date. Eating in a car is not first date material," Summer commented, a confused frown on her face.
Paige shook her head. "I liked it. It was different. It was something I liked. And it was perfect to me."
AJ nodded. She knew that everyone saw it different. Paige didn't want to make a big deal over it, and Summer did. Emma and AJ were in-between.
"Continue please," Emma told her.
Paige told them about how Seth took her to Hollywood and how they ended their date. "It wasn't like how AJ kisses Phillip, or how Summer and Roman are. It was innocent, and nice."
"We don't want to see you kiss anyone like we kiss our guys," Summer ordered, a serious look on her face.
Paige smiled them. But her smile wasn't fully there.
AJ frowned. She could see that something was bothering her. She could see that something had happened during that last part. She looked over and noticed that she wasn't the only one. Emma also had a confused look on her face, although she hid it behind a smile.
Paige told them that she was tired and she was going to bed. Summer was also going to bed. It left Emma and AJ alone.
"You saw that too, right?" Emma asked, turning her attention back to AJ.
The older woman nodded. "Something happened."
"She's not going to tell us," Emma told her. She sighed and looked at Paige's door.
"Maybe not now. But we just have to wait," AJ told her, standing up.
Emma nodded and then turned to go towards her room. AJ walked to hers. She looked down when she felt her phone vibrate. She smiled when she saw that she got two messages. She opened the first one. It was from Seth.
Thanks for helping me plan. I'm sure she told you she loved it. I'll pay you back for today.
AJ shook her head. None of the other girls knew that she had something to do with the date. She opened the other one. It was from her fiancé, Punk. The word brought a smile to her face.
Hey babe. Thank you for helping Seth. Have a goodnight. I love you and can't wait to officially call you mine.
AJ smiled and quickly sent out quick replies.
No problem. Paige was happy, that's all the thanks I need.
I love you. Enjoy your day with your brother tomorrow. And I can't wait to become the official Ms. Phillip Brookes. Goodnight.
She placed the phone on her nightstand and went to bed.

"What are we doing today?" Emma asked, when all four girls were in the kitchen. She had cooked breakfast for everyone and they were all setting up plans for the day.
"I got nothing going on today," Summer told them. AJ nodded. Punk was going to spend the day with Seth. Paige looked at the three girls.
AJ saw that she looked conflicted. Like she wanted to say something, but wasn't sure what to say. AJ looked at her two blonde friends and noticed that they had noticed it too.
"I-I wanted to talk to you guys. I want you to-to know about my family," she whispered, looking at the table. Emma was the first to smile.
"Whenever you're ready. We're here for you," she told the younger girl. Paige looked up and smiled.
"I want to. It's time you guys knew about them. About my life back then."
AJ nodded. "After breakfast."
Paige smiled and started to eat, followed by the others.

Paige closed her eyes. "I was the youngest. My brother, Roy, he was ten years older than me. He was big and scary, but he loved playing with me." Paige let out a laugh, lost in a memory. AJ wondered how much it hurt to think of her family. "I had everyone at the palm of my hand. Zak, he was two years older than me. We were closer. I grew up with him. And then there was Nikki, she was nine years older than me. You guys remind me of one of them."
"Who do I remember you of?" Summer asked, a grin on her face. AJ nodded, wanting to know who she was to Paige.
"Nikki. She was always protecting us, like my second mother," Paige answered, a faraway look.
"And me?" Emma asked, a small smile on her face. She looked excited that she was getting to know Paige better, they all were.
"Zak. He was a total goofball. And you know, he was closer by age with me. And AJ, you remind me of Roy. He was also a goof, but he was very protective of my family. You're fun, but you're scary."
AJ grinned at the response. She knew she was scary. "We're your family," she told the younger girl, who looked happy but sad at the same time.
"We are here for each other," Summer added, a smile on her face.
Emma nodded.
Paige then continued to tell them a story, of when she was six, and she was playing a game with Zak. And how Roy and Nikki got involved.
AJ noticed a locket around her neck. She never saw it before. But she saw that every time Paige got a faraway look on her face, she would touch the locket.
"Do you have a picture in there?" she asked, watching as Paige gripped the locket. She nodded and took it off. She handed it to them with a small smile.
AJ took it and opened it. She smiled when she saw the family of six on there. Paige was in the middle of course.
They gave it back and Paige quickly put it on. She held it in her hand. "It's one of the only things I have left. It was my mum's."
"Let's go out to eat for lunch, my treat," Emma said, standing up. The other three girls looked at the clock, shocked when they saw that it was lunchtime. Time had passed quickly.

AJ laughed when Summer told them about an ex-boyfriend. He had forgotten about her birthday, so as revenge, when she received tickets for his favorite team, she took his brother. When he asked her about it, she told him that she forgot.
"Really? Good way to get revenge with. If Punk ever forgets anything, I can use Seth."
In front of her, Paige turned red. She muttered something, that no one heard. "Talk louder sweetheart," Summer told her.
Paige looked away, but Emma laughed. AJ assumed it took a while but the younger blonde put together what Paige had said. Once she stopped laughing, she told them what the blonde had said, "She said not if it takes time from her and Seth."
It made the other girls laugh as well. Paige blushed even more.
"Don't worry. As long as Punk remembers things, I won't need Seth for anything."
Paige placed her head on the table and nodded her head. Emma patted her head.
"So how are things with Dean?" AJ asked, the Australian taking the attention from the blushing twenty year old.
Emma smiled. "He's really sweet to me. He's nothing like Sami. I know Sami loved me, but he didn't love me enough. But with Dean, it's like I'm the only one he sees. He makes me feel special."
Sami Zayn was Emma's eccentric boyfriend. They dated for seven months. But his eyes were always wandering. He wasn't into the relationship like Emma was. On the seventh month anniversary, Emma went to visit him and she found him in bed with a girl she did not like, Sasha Banks.
After finding out about the cheating, AJ went to visit him and kicked him in-between his legs. She threatened him. She told him that he was going to stay away from Emma, and he was never to talk to her again. While holding himself, he nodded. AJ left, and no one saw him again. AJ never told Emma what she did. For days, Emma was heartbroken, and worried that she would see Sami.
"Sami is a dick," Summer said, glaring the table. AJ nodded her head, agreeing. Paige just sat there, listening and watching. Sami was out of their lives before they met Paige. She didn't know much, just the basics.
"Dean, he's something. He balances out my crazy," Emma said.
"But you just met him," Paige said, frowning. She looked confused.
"That doesn't matter. How does Seth make up feel?"
Paige looked away for a second. She turned her eyes back to Emma and nodded. "He makes me feel like my crappy past doesn't matter."
"See, you can connect with someone in a day," Emma said, smiling.
"Roman is the same with me," Summer said, a goofy smile on her face.
AJ grinned. She noticed something behind Paige. She saw a guy staring at them. He had a long beard and longish hair. He was wearing a black shirt with a male flowery-buttoned shirt.
Summer called AJ's name. The shorter girl looked at the older blond. "Sorry, what?"
"What were you looking at?" Summer asked, frowning.
"That guy over there, he's been staring at us for a while."
All the girls turned to look. The guy grinned. He winked at them.
"He's just a perv," Summer said, a look of disgust in her face.
Emma nodded. "We're just too hot."
AJ and Summer laughed. AJ frowned when she noticed that Paige was quiet.
"Paige?"
The Brit looked at her.
"Are you okay?"
Paige nodded. "It's creepy."
"It happens sweetie. Some men, and women, are just creeps. No need to worry about that."
Paige nodded. She looked back one last time, before starting up a random conversation with Emma.
AJ looked at the guy, then decided to ignore him.
The girls spent the day just telling stories and talking about family. They talked about AJ and Punk's wedding.
Naked
AJ stared at the ceiling. In her hand was Punk's. They had been talking about the wedding and what was to come. AJ had a smile on her face. "I just want it to be our families and friends. And their dates."
Punk looked over and frowned. "My friends are dating your friends."
That caused AJ to laugh. "I guess it's going to be a small wedding. I don't mind, do you?"
Punk shook his head. "No, as long as you are becoming my wife, I don't care who's there."
AJ looked at him and giggled. She reached up and kissed his cheek. "I love you so much."
"I love you too," he responded. He pulled her closer and closed his eyes. AJ smiled, closing her eyes. She get closer to him.
But as she tried to sleep, she can't get the image of the man she saw earlier out of her head. She wondered why, and who the guy could be.
