It had been 2 weeks since Caleb, Reid and Summer had spoken to each other. At school it was fine because they could just ignore each other but at home it was just plain awkward. Usually Summer had never cried but it astounded her how much she had done so in the past two weeks. Surely a girl shouldn't cry this much. It lets the guy think he has the upper hand. Easier said than done.

The next weekend, Summer went home because she was pretty sure that Caleb would stay at school. She sat in the dismal living room with only the stuffed animals and leather furniture (which was always cold) for company. Her mother would walk in every now and again with a coffee or some food for her but she didn't take it. Evelyn had no idea why her children, who had always been inseparable, were fighting but she felt it best to let them work it out themselves.

After a few hours of being alone with her thoughts, she glanced out of the window and saw Caleb's escalade parked outside. Panic struck her, it couldn't have been there long or she would have heard him come in. there was still time to escape. She ran out of the room and headed for the stairs. No sooner had she touched the railing, the door opened and she could hear her brother walk in. she heard him stop and stand still as he saw she was there. She chanced a look over her shoulder at him. His face was emotionless and he said nothing. Turning her look into a glare, she stormed up to her room and slammed the door shut, sitting behind it so no one could get in. she heard no attempt from her brother to pursue her up the stairs, which annoyed her further. She kicked her stool weakly but stretching out a leg. Then something caught her eye.

Reid sat alone in his dormitory. Tyler had gone out with Pogue to get his hummer checked out and had left him alone. He didn't understand it but whenever he thought about Summer, his heart would hurt. This had never happened before. What was wrong with him? Was he sick? I think he knew with every inch of his body, no matter how hard he tried to deny it. He was ill alright, he'd come down with a nasty case of love.

Summer crawled across her floor and picked something up off of the floor for the landslide caused by her stool falling. It was dusty, so she wiped a thin layer of the stuff off of the plate glass, revealing an image of her, Caleb, Reid, Pogue, Tyler and Kate on her 14th birthday. What caught her eye most of all, was the fact that Caleb and Reid were on either side of her, smiling at each other. What had changed? Not a lot. Only that she and Reid had gone from best friends to in a relationship. That couldn't have been too hard to accept could it? It wasn't Caleb's right to butt in. she was perfectly capable of handling herself. Plus she had given herself to him willingly, so what did Caleb see wrong in that. It wasn't as if Reid had insulted her honour. If anything, he would always defend it. Thinking about it gave her a headache. She just hugged her knees into her chest and cried again. Why? She hated cliché and was too smart for this. Then something hit her on the head.

She uncurled herself and saw it was a rolled up piece of paper. She looked around to see anywhere it could've come from. The only place she found was the open window. She didn't look out of it straight away, but carefully opened the paper with her delicate hands.

Do you hate me?

Summer recognised the scruffy handwriting immediately: Reid. She ran to the window and looked out frantically but she saw no one, so she wrote a note back.

Yes, I do.

She threw it out of the window and waited on her bed. Another piece of paper came flying in. She opened it.

Why?

She wrote underneath the writing.

Because you weren't there for me, like you promised. But I won't hate you for that forever.

She threw the piece of paper out of the window and looked out of it, keeping herself hidden. She saw the page pick itself up off of the floor by itself and whiz behind a tree. A hand caught it. Summer's eyes whitened. She stood to face the window and then something strange happened. Every piece of her broke down into water. The puddle flew out of the open space to the other side of the tree. She reformed, eyes now normal. Hearing scribbling on the other side of the tree, she felt inclined to speak.

"So this is what the infamous Reid Garwin has been reduced to?" she said, revealing herself. Reid's jaw dropped to the floor.

"Reid Garwin, the notorious ladies man has been reduced to sending notes through a girls window. I never thought I'd see the day." she said humorously, she didn't smile. Reid stuttered a bit before finding his tongue.

"I-I didn't think that you would want to see me." she muttered.

"You were wrong." Summer said sternly. She crossed her arms across her chest and tapped her foot impatiently.

"Not for the first time." Reid murmured into his shoes, not wanting to look up. He knew if he did he would be hypnotised by Summer's eyes.

"No, not for the first time. At least you know that." she sighed at him.

"I'm sorry." Reid whispered.

"What?" Summer screamed. That ticked Reid off.

"I'm sorry!" He cried, "I'm sorry for everything. I'm sorry for kissing you, I'm sorry I kicked Aaron's ass that made him angry so he told Caleb, I'm sorry Tyler found out, I'm sorry I made you hate your brother, I'm sorry I broke your heart and I'm sorry I love you, Summer."

"You- wait, what?" Summer was so shocked that she forgot to be angry. Reid chanced a look up at her, she was standing closer than he thought, an arms distance away. He still couldn't believe how beautiful she was. He found it in him to look into her eyes.

"I love you, Summer." she said, again in a whisper, "But you hate me."

Summer shook her head.

"You don't?" he asked.

"No, I hate the fact that I don't hate you." she muttered through her perfect lips. Reid barely had time to process her answer before her lips were on his. He was too happy to care what was happening with Caleb. He kissed her back and the night slipped away.
