I woke up to the smell of maple syrup.
PANCAKES!
I shot up, jumped out of bed and ran straight into the kitchen to see Arden flipping pancakes. I stood in my spot just taking in the amazing smell of the pancakes.
"Arden, I officially love you." I state. She whips her head around towards me to give me a confused look.
"I thought you already loved me." She says with a fake crying face.
"Well, I guess didn't. But since you've made me pancakes, I OFFICIALLY love you." I smile. Arden lets out a laugh and serves me two ginormous, fluffy, gorgeous pancakes on a plate with syrup and strawberries.
"WAKE UP BITCHES! ARDEN MADE PANCAKES!" I scream. I hear two voices say the word 'pancakes' and then I hear speedy footsteps come up from behind me.
"Okay, no offense Arden, but these aren't as good as the pancakes that Mags makes." Zoe says, taking a bite off her fork.
"None taken, and that is true. You my friend, are a pancake MASTER." Arden states.
"Thank you, thank you very much." I wink.
All throughout breakfast, the four of us talked about anything and everything, until Zoe brought up our conversation last night. She explained to the girls what her perspective was and what she thought of it and how I agreed to it.
"So, are you going to go back to him?" Bailey asks.
"I believe him, but I'm not going back to him yet. But I'll ring him." I say, taking a sip of my coffee.
"What're you going to say?" Arden looks over to me.
"Whatever comes to mind." I shrug and reach for my phone and walk into my room. I shut the door and lock it behind me.
"Hello?" I hear Jack ask.
"Hi." I respond.
"Maggie?"
"Yeah, it's me."
"It's so good to hear your voice again."
"I haven't even been gone that long."
"It still feels like a decade."
I let out a small laugh.
"Mags, about the whole Carly thing, I wa-" I cut Jack off by saying.
"I believe you."
"What?"
"I said that I believe you didn't initiate it Jack." I say, moving to the edge of my bed.
"Thank God." he lets out a sigh of relief.
"Zoe made some good points last night, and it made me realize that you wouldn't do that to me. Right?" I ask, biting down on my lip.
"I'd never cheat on you Maggie, I know what happened looked like I cheated, but trust me when I say this, I'd never and I mean NEVER in my life cheat on a you. You're one of a kind, and I don't want to lose you because of this."
"You won't lose me Jack." I say.
"I'm glad you said that. Will you come home now? It's so boring without you here." He whines, which made me laugh.
"I can't, not yet at least. But I'll come back soon enough baby." I say with a smile.
Jack's POV
"I can't, not yet at least. But I'll come back soon enough baby."
Baby. She called me baby again.
I smiled wide.
My princess is coming back to me.
"Alright, well, I'll see you when you come back then." I say into the phone.
"You will."
"I love you princess."
"I love you too baby."
As soon as Maggie hung up, I started doing my own victory dance.
"What the bloody hell are you dancing for?" Conor asked from behind me.
"Dancing? What? No, there was a fly, and, I was uh-"
"I lost interest." He says before leaving my room.
Well okay then
Maggie's POV
I opened my door which led to Arden, Bailey and Zoe falling into my room.
"I guess there's no such thing as privacy anymore is there?" I huff.
"Sorry." Zoe says from the ground.
"It was so worth the fall though. You called him Baby again!" Bailey squealed.
"I did. What about it?" I ask, looking back at the three, who hadn't made an effort to get up.
"Nothing, it's just. UGH YOU TWO ARE SO CUTE!" she shouted. We all laughed and I pulled the girls up off the floor. I checked the time, it was already 11:54.
"WHAT THE FUCK? How the hell is it almost noon!" I shout.
"You slept in until 11:20." Arden said.
"UGH! Now we have to get ready before Rickey and Denzel think we've blown them off." I say walking towards my bathroom.
When I finally finished with my hair, makeup and chose my outfit, I sighed in relief.
"Glad that's over and done with."
I walked out into the living room to see Arden and Zoe changed into their clothes from last night, and Bailey had changed too.
"Good! I'm glad you're set. Arden, Zoe, you guys should head home since we'll be out." I say.
"Alright. Well, we'll see you around then!" Arden says, giving Bailey and I a hug.
Bailey and I waited about 20 minutes before I saw Rickey and Denzel, and once I did, I ran straight towards them.
"DENZEL! RICKEY! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!" I shouted while jumping in the air.
"Omg we missed you too." Denzel said, with a bright smile.
"God, it's been so long since we last saw you two!" Bailey says.
"I know, that's why we need to catch the fuck up!" Rickey yelled. We all laughed and sat down on the cement bench. We started out slow, just asking how we were and ice breaker things like that. Then, we moved on to my YouTube channel.
"So Ms. Ferrier, I heard that you have a YouTube channel." Rickey says, crossing his legs.
"How did you know?" I ask.
"I called them last night to talk." Bailey says from my right side.
"Oh really? What else did you talk about?" I question, wiggling my eyebrows.
"Just what's been going on between you, Jack and Carly." Rickey states. I whip my head towards Bailey.
"You ratted my love life out?!"
"It's not like it was going to be a secret honey." Denzel says with a smile.
"That's true." I shrug.
"Back to the YouTube channel thing, I have my own too." Rickey says.
"No way. Rickey Thompson having his OWN YouTube channel?" I ask looking from Rickey to Denzel. They both nod in confirmation.
"Well you know what this means right?" I question.
Bailey, Denzel and Rickey look at each other.
"What?" Bailey asks.
"You and I have to do a video together!" I squeal looking at Rickey. A broad smile spreads across his face.
"HELL YEAH! I'm in!"
"Yaaaaaaaaaas! I already have an idea of what we should do." I tell everyone.
"Ooh, great. Mags has another 'brilliant' idea." Bailey says, putting the quotation marks around the word 'brilliant'. I roll my eyes and continue.
"We should do a clothes swap challenge video!" I chirp.
"What's that?" Denzel queries.
"It's when the both of us choose three different outfits for each other, and we have to wear the outfits the other persons chose." I explain.
"Well damn, that's embarrassing and stupid. It's perfect for your channel." Bailey teases. I elbow her in the side.
"Just because I'm your little sister, doesn't mean I won't hurt you." I warn.
"You haven't changed since we last saw you." Denzel jokes. I roll my eyes and pass my phone to Bailey for her to take a picture of Denzel, Rickey and I.
