Adopted By Phan

Chapter 18

'Love you too,' I hung up.

I texted Dan quickly, saying I was going to Starbucks.

-

'Hey Jace!' I shouted from across the street

'Hey bitch!' He replied, posing.

We walked in together, both ordering a caramel, soy latte.

We sat in a corner booth.

'So what you want to ask me?'

'I was wondering if you wanted to come to Vid-Con with me, Dan and Phil,' I kept a straight face through the whole sentence but Jace looked so surprised, he'll burst.

'I.. Wai... What?'

'Yep,' I smiled

'Are you being serious?' I nodded again 'Oh my god Summer, thank you so much!

He jumped on me, engulfing me in a hug.

'Thank you, thank you, thank you,' He kept repeating

'It's two weeks we'll be leaving. On Monday, not next week, but the week after,' I smiled.

'That's awesome, I've always wanted to go to America,'

We spent the rest of the time just messing around while drinking our coffee.

'Ah shit,' I looked at the time on my phone 'I have to go, I'll see you on Monday?'

'Yeah, see you then,' He smiled, giving me a hug.

I set off home as I go the opposite way to Jace. It didn't take long.

'Hello my dear daughter, how was Starbucks with thy Jace,' Phil said as I walked through the door.

'It was fine,' I giggled 'Jace said he can come,'

'Cool! We'll be in America for two weeks, we'll do Vid-Con and then just be in America for the rest of time,'

'This is gonna be ace!' I jumped on the sofa to look what Dan was doing on his computer. He was on Tumblr, the Phan smut tag.

'Wait why are you on the...smut...tag, you two could've just had sex while I was out,'

The looked at each other and smirked, Dan blushed slightly.

'Jesus Christ, you two are like sexually ambiguous rabbits! 

'Come on, we aren't that bad,' Phil stated, getting out his phone.

'Yeah sure, you don't see me making out with someone every morning when you want breakfast,'

'No, and we wont, ever!' Dan warned.

I arrived at school just before the bell went, thankfully. I was having a stressful morning, leave me alone.

Currently I was in one of those 'you come near me and I'll slit your throat' moods. Not good.

I looked around for Jace at the front of the building. He wasn't there, which was strange. He always walked me to class whether the bell goes or not. I guess he had to get to lesson.

I walked through the never ending halls to History and plonked myself in my chair when I arrived.

Mrs Brainsbury walked in a short while later.

'Right then students! You'll be handing your essays on Henry VIIIs' wives, start from the back row and come up one at a time,'

I stood up first, handed it to her and sat back down. I swear to Bob, if I don't get at least a B on this, I'm going to kill myself.

That lesson dragged on very slowly, I got a C on the paper! How? I went into every little detail about each of the wives and how everything they did affected their relationship with Henry. Every. Little. Detail.

Jace still wasn't here, which was strange. I guess he was ill, I'll pop round later to check on him.

I was sat under a tree listening to Panic! At The Disco from my iPhone when I saw someone's legs in front of me. Rem.

'Can I help you?' I pulled out one head phone.

'I wanna' talk to you,' He looked somewhat annoyed.

'Okay, talk then,'

'I just wanted to say,' He hesitated for a moment.

'Say your sorry? Yeah buddy, that 'ain't gonna work' I rolled my eyes. I may sound like a bitch but I really don't care.

'No, that's not what I wanted to say,' He started, then he rolled his eyes 'I wanted to say, that you should say you're sorry,'

My eyes widened at his words.

'Me! What did I do! You're the one who couldn't handle your jealousy! You're the one who left me with a fucking concussion for a week!' I was so angry at this point.

'For cheating on me! With that asshole you call a best friend, don't be so self centred, Jesus,'

'He is fucking gay and you call him an asshole again, I'll put your bloody head where the sun doesn't shine, oh wait, it's already too far up there!'

'Yeah right, you wouldn't do anything,' He chuckled. When did he become this horrible?

I stood up to meet his level, ripping out my headphones.

Then I kicked at his legs sideways causing him to fall over when pounced on him, pinning his arm behind, twisting it slightly.

'My Dad taught me it before he died, don't come near me or Jace ever again,' I got off him, brushing my shirt down.

'What,' He scrambled to get up 'You, you fucking psycho bitch!' He ran then. I am so done with assholes at the minute, or ever for that fact.

The rest of the day swung by slowly, painfully slowly. I almost jumped for joy when the bell, signalling the end of the day, rung.

The bus was late so I decided to walk home. I arrived home shortly.

'Hey Sum, how was school?' Phil asked, coming out the hallway when I walked through the door.

'Eh, it was school,' I left out the 'Rem' part.

He laughed 'Do you want to watch an anime?'

'I will in a bit, I have homework to do, where's Dan?' I asked

Phil looked disappointed for a second before replying 'He, erm, he went to go pick up food shopping,'

'Okay, I'll see you in around an hour or two,' I gave him a quick hug before walking to my room. It was strange, Phil wasn't usually upset.

I got out Maths first, sighing then picking up my pencil.

During my last piece of homework there was a knock on the door.

'I'll get it!' I shouted before running to the door.

I opened it and stood before me was a police man.

'Summer Green Howell-Lester? He asked me.

'That's me,' I replied

'May I come in for a second?' He asked taking off his hat.

'Sure, sure,' I opened the door wider for him to walk in. 'Would you like a cup of tea or anything?

'Oh, no thank you,' He smiled

'Be right back,'

Phil was in the kitchen. 'Who was it?'

'It's a police man,'

He stopped stirring his tea abruptly, before following me into the living room.

We sat down opposite him.

'Well...' He began.
