Those pages talked about Ronnie's and Will's relationship. They had just been starting spending time together, when Ashley (Will's ex-girlfriend, who wanted Will back) noticed that. So she lied to Ronnie, that Will just wanted to have fun with Ronnie and he was not interested in her. She also said that Will behaves like this with every girl. Ronnie believed Ashley. Will noticed that something was wrong and Ronnie was avoiding him. Finally things between them became clear. After that they kissed for the very first time. 
  Ronnie and Will spent a lot of time together. Will took Ronnie to his home. Ronnie was very surprised. She wasn't expecting Will to be from the rich family. Will lived in a very big house with his mom and dad. His mom's name was Susan and father's name was Tom. Susan was a little bit irreverent and Ronnie noticed that Susan didin't like her not much. Will's father was different. He built a big business. Despite that he was rich and successful, he acted like a little child. He liked Ronnie and invited her to see his airplane. Ronnie thought that they had a private plane, but it was a remote-control plane. Tom showed her his skills and then gave Ronnie a try to test the plane. 
  Will went to Ronnie's home for dinner. Ronnie lived in Bungalow. Will had dinner with Ronnie, Ronnie's father and Jonah. After eating spaggethies they played poker. After that Ronnie and Will went for a walk. Will enjoyed it very much. At the same time he was thinking back to the time when she was dating with Ashley. Ashley was a girl from the rich family, she was also smart. Everything in their relationship was fine until Ashley cheated on Will. Will forgave her, because everybody make mistakes, but the relationship wasn't the same anymore. He started noticing that Ashley was pretty bitch and they were together because of their both parents, who were rich. So he decided to end this relationship before it was going to be bad. But Ronnie, she was different. She liked Will before she knew that Will was from rich family. She liked him the way he was. Also, why Will liked  Ronnie, was that Ronnie was like Will's sister Megan. Megan had her own rules and that's why she had been driven their mom crazy.
  Will trusted Ronnie. He talked to her a story about why he and Megan always wore the barcelets. A few years ago, it was a rainy day and Will's mother drove Will and Scott to a volleyball competition. In the car was  Will's little brother Mike also. Will and Scott were playing at the back seat. Mother warned them to be quiet, but they didn't stop. One moment Scott screamed and Susan turned back to see why Scott screamed. A few seconds later Susan lost control over the car and they fell down from the bridge. Scott, Will and Susan escaped, but Mike died. That's why Will and Megan were always wearing bracelets, on these braces were written on IMTF (In My Thoughts Forever).
  At the same time when Ronnie and Will spent time together, Marcus appeared. Marcus mocked  and was jealous on them. Marcus was planning a party. He hoped that there will be many drunk girls and after being with Blaze, he can have other girls too, because Blaze will be too drunk to understand what is going on.

MY OPINION
  Those pages were also interesting and I will continue reading the book. It only gets better and better. I think that something bad will happen in that party, which Marcus was planning. Also I think that Ashley will do something as well to break up with Ronnie and Will. I have heard something about the ending of the book. And it's about Ronnie's father, who had cancer. But I want to continue reading to find out all about that.
