Chapter 6: White please
A few days had past since Paige and Alex were together. They would basically spend everyday together doing something fun. It was summer after all. Most of the time they were with Marco and some other people from the rest of the gang, and usually they would sit down and watch a movie or go out and do a little karaoke. But soon enough everything got boring so Alex came up with an idea. But she decided to keep it a secret from Paige and everyone, but Marco. For this, she would need his help.
While Marco and Alex were in the kitchen cleaning up some dishes Alex started to talk.
"So I was thinking, instead of doing the usual movie night, or karaoke fun we could change things up a little." Alex said.
"oh and what did you have in mind?" asked Marco.
"well I was thinking that we could invite some people over and have an old fashion water fight, super soakers and all." Said Alex.
"hmm not bad, not bad at all. But where are we gonna get all of those water guns from?" he asked.
"well I was thinking you could pull some of your connections" she said
"what connections?"
"okay, well I was hoping you could ask Dylan and his hockey buddies to borrow some, we all know Dylan is still a kid at heart." She said.
"sadly, that's true. Alright I'll get it the weaponry arranged and you call everyone and fill them in, okay?" he said
"alright, just one thing. Don't tell Paige, I want this to be a surprise." She said
"alright, what ever you want, she's your girlfriend." Marco said
"… that she is." Alex said as they finished up the dishes. Alex and Marco walked out of the kitchen, Alex went to the living room to see Paige and Marco went up stairs to go talk to Dylan about their 'arrangements'.
"hey cutie" Paige said as she saw Alex walk towards her. Alex lay down on the couch with her head on Paige's lap.
"so what are the plans for tomorrow?" asked Paige knowing that she and Alex would do something everyday together.
"umm, it's a surprise…" Alex said
"ooh a surprise, me like. But it isn't one of those surprises where you put me on a prank show and I'm seen making a fool out of myself in front of millions, kind of surprise… is it?" asked Paige
"nooo" Alex said giggling at how far Paige's imagination can drift.
"okay well is there anything I need to bring, or know, or do?" Paige said looking down at Alex.
"umm, just wear a white shirt." Alex said with a huge smirk on her face.
"okay… white it is then" Paige said.
The next day Paige waited for Alex and Marco to come over. Where are they? They were supposed to be here 10 minutes ago Paige thought to herself. Just then the doorbell rang. Paige went to go open it, she saw Alex standing there with a smile on her face.
"hey, its about time you got here you're 10 minutes—" Paige said before being pulled away by Alex.
"ready for your surprise?" asked Alex
"I guess..." Paige said as she was practically being dragged to her backyard. She realized that Alex was hiding something behind her back.
"what's that you're hiding babe?" Paige said smiling.
"I'm glad to see you wore a white shirt." Alex said completely ignoring Paige's question. She knew if she had answered it, it would completely blow the surprise.
"you ready?" Alex asked
"ready for what?" Paige asked back.
"here, you're going to need this." Alex said as she pulled a water gun out from behind her back.
"what's it for?" Paige said as she saw Alex running away.
"this!" Alex said as everyone ran out from behind something shooting water at Paige. The only thing you could hear from Paige was a very high pitch scream. Even at that it was hard to hear because it was so high. Some people even claimed they heard dogs barking after her scream.
Within 10 seconds everyone had stopped shooting Paige to see her reaction. Paige was completely soaked from head to toe. When she looked down she saw that her shirt was slightly transparent.
"Paige, why are you wearing a white shirt to a water fight?" asked Ashley.
"water fight?" Paige asked looking at Alex who had the biggest smile on her face that you could imagine. Paige knew Alex planned for her to wear a white shirt so that she could see through it. "You dirty little—" was all Paige got out before she started running towards Alex, spraying her with water.
"you're dead!" Paige said smiling. Everyone else resumed their water fight. Marco, Hazel, Spinner and Ashley were all in their own little fight, running around the pool, whereas Paige and Alex were seeking revenge against one another. Alex and Paige were running around so much that Paige had cornered Alex along side of the house. Paige started running towards Alex in a playful manner when she realized neither of them had any water left in their guns. Paige tackled Alex to the grassy floor as they were both laughing.
"You're so nasty, you planned for me to wear this white shirt just so you could get a little peak of me." Paige said now on top of Alex.
"well, you are my girlfriend, aren't you?" Alex said as she rolled on top of Paige so that she could be in control.
"I'll get you back for this you know" Paige said as she rolled on top of Alex so that she could regain her control.
"go ahead" Alex said. "let's see what you can do." Alex noticed Paige's hand going down her Alex's leg, she thought finally, some action. Neither Paige, nor Alex broke eye contact. That is until Alex realized Paige wasn't exploring her body, she was reaching for something else. As soon as Alex saw what Paige was going for she pushed Paige off of her and go up as quickly as possible, but it was too late. Paige had reached for the hose. She quickly turned on the tap and started to spray Alex. Alex tried to run away, but she realized she was still cornered.
Paige finally stopped spraying Alex when she saw that she was finally soaked.
"I guess we're even now." Paige said with a smirk.
"umm, not quite." Alex said as she slowly and softly pushed Paige to the ground. Now Alex was on top of Paige and their faces were merely inches apart.
"what are you going to do to me?" Paige asked in a playful way.
"this" Alex said as she went down to give Paige a passionate kiss. Somewhere in the middle of the kiss, Alex and Paige had stopped hearing screams from the backyard. But neither of them really cared, they were to busy in their own matters. The silence was broken until a voice came from behind Alex and Paige.
"I found them, they're over here." Shouted Marco. Alex and Paige quickly got up before the rest of the gang saw what they were doing.
"hey, we got worried when we lost you two. What were you guys doing over here?" Hazel asked.
"just having a little fun." Paige said smiling at Alex
"fun on the floor?" Marco asked.
"oh you see that was just a distraction" Alex said.
"distraction? For what?" asked Spinner
"for this!" Paige said as she got the hose out from behind her back and started to spray everyone except for Alex. Everyone ran away screaming and laughing.
"I guess we're alone again" Paige said as she walked closer to a smiling Alex with love in her eyes.
"I guess so…" Alex said resuming what they were doing before. After a few minutes Alex and Paige heard silence coming from around the pool.
"wait, hun, something's not right." Paige said as she broke her kiss from Alex.
"forget about them" Alex said kissing Paige again.
"no wait." Paige said as she got up and dragged Alex with her. They started walking around the pool to see where everyone was but couldn't see them. Just then the four friends came running out from the side of the house.
"now" Marco shouted signaling everyone to push them into the pool.
"no!" Alex and Paige shouted at the same time. They fell into the pool fully clothed and not too happy about it.
"we had to get you back somehow" Hazel said smiling while high fiving Marco at the same time.
"alright, alright, you got us back now help us out." Alex said as she gave Paige a quick smile and stuck out both hands. Paige did the same. Each person grabbed one hand, somehow they all fell for the trick and Paige and Alex pulled them in on top of them. Basically, in the end, a friendly water fight turned into a wild pool party… fully clothed.
They all climbed out of the pool slowly, the weight of their wet clothes were holding them down, not to mention some people were still splashing other people. Everyone finally managed to get out and grab a towel to dry off. Instead of going home to change they all stuck around and took some time to dry off in the sun around the pool.
"so how long have we been dating?" Paige asked Alex in front of everyone.
"umm, well we got together a few months ago, then broke up like a few weeks ago, but then got together. It's a bit confusing." Alex said looking at Paige's face which was a little confused.
"well all that matters is that we're together now" Paige said leaning in to kiss Alex. Everyone around just let out an 'awww'.
"okay, umm when did I turn? If you know what I mean." Paige said smiling.
"uhh…" Alex began. Everyone turned their attention to see because they never fully understood what initially happened.
Alex let out a sigh knowing that if she told Paige she would have to tell everyone, "okay, well Kevin Smith, the actor/director came to film a movie at Degrassi…"
"wait! Kevin Smith filmed a movie at our school!?" Paige slightly yelled.
"yeah…" Alex said as she gave out a little chuckle Alex was over the excitement of the movie. "anyways… well some students got to be in the movie, and you were one of them but your part got cut." Paige's face lit up when she heard she was in the movie and then dropped into disappointment when she heard she was cut. "So you and me went together, to make a splash at the after party, but the real party was behind a door which was behind a very large bouncer. So I had to pose as your girlfriend and we got in. We started dancing and having a good time, then afterwards we came back to my place and…" Alex zoned off
"and what?" everybody asked at the same time. Alex jumped up at the surprise.
"well I kissed you and you kissed back, and that was it." Another 'awww' broke out from their friends. After a few minutes of non-awkward silence everyone went back to their own thing and were talking to each other. But Paige had one more question.
Paige leaned over to Alex not really wanting other people to hear the question "how far have we gone?" she asked just above a whisper. But the whisper was not enough everyone turned around to look at them in surprise.
"what? Do you all have dog ears or something?" Paige asked in a kind of angry tone. Everyone turned around and went back to what they were doing but of course they were all secretly listening. Watching the others go back to talking Alex thought it would be safe to say now.
"umm, we have gone as far as second or third base depending on what you think" Alex said in a low voice.
"meaning what?" Paige asked.
Alex felt a little awkward explaining this in front of everyone, but still continued. "okay, umm, we've gone as far as making out, topless and feeling, but the pants stayed on." Alex said quickly.
Paige quietly laughed at how uncomfortable Alex was. "Alright, thanks hun, I know how painful that was for you" Paige said laughing and putting a hand on Alex's shoulder. "well who knows, maybe that answer will change soon" Paige said smirking. Everyone kind of looked around at each other knowing what she meant. Alex just looked at her in shock, but a good kind of shock.
