walking down the beach felt amazing. i mean all of our friends were here right now. it's just a good feeling, you know?

"may i present" belly broke my thoughts "the belly special!" she sat the bottle of the margaritas down

"nice" we all whooped, more alcohol. just what we needed

"we saved you the inflatable unicorn, well lauren kinda stole it but she won't bite" gigi pointed out from next to me , belly sat on it

a couple seconds went by and jere and cam cameron walked towards us "hey, check out who i found, it's cam cameron" jere tan towards us

jere sat next to me "what's up gigi" he then looked at me "hey babe" he smirked

i rolled my eyes and shoved his shoulder "shut up" my eyes went back to belly, god she's drunk

i laughed and jere looked at me funny "what are you laughin at?" his eyebrows raised

"belly is waisted" i exclaimed with a smirk "mom is gonna be pissed"

"it's not a race con" nicole said making all of our heads look at them

"yeah save some for us please" jeremiah called out and i nodded in agreement

"okay wait, wait but what if it was a race?" belly held up her hand, i looked at jere with wide eyes and he only laughed with a shrug "i mean, isn't that the premise of like, every drinking game?"

gigi looked down at belly "you wanna play a drinking game?"

"why not? i mean it's the fourth of july right?" belly smiled

"fuck it"

"let's do it"

~~~~~

after a little while, everything had settle down and the all girls, cam and steven were sitting on the dock

"did you know that she was one of the last people to visits lindsay lohans beach club in mykonos before it closed?" gigi asked, playing with lauran's hair

they're all buddy buddy now

shylah said "are you serious? oh my god id die for linsay, she's a queen"

"ibiza is superior though" nicole said making me role my eyes, who even are these people?

i got up and stretched "on that note, i'm gonna go inside. see y'all later?" i told them sad stated to walk away

i need a nap.

once i got back to the house and laid in my room for awhile a knock was at my bedroom door

"come in" i called out

jere walked through the door and gasped when he saw me on my bed "your seriously taking a nap?"

i let out a laugh and pulled him next to so i can lay my head on his chest "i was earlier, what have you been doing?"

"dad and conrad got into a fight" he exclaimed , i looked up at him with soft eyes and he continued "then belly tripped over the stairs, so mom dropped the cake and i saw dad and her fight"

my eyebrows knotted "is suzzie okay?" i asked him and he nodded "do you think your parents are having problems?"

i felt him shrug from underneath me "i hope not" he told me "can we tell people about us? please?"

i looked at him and he was giving me his puppy eyes "fine" i smiled and gave him a kiss on the lips "your so cute"

"i know i am" he laughed "i should go, your brother said he needed to talk to me, said it was ishtfu"

i laughed and said "that means it's important so hurry the fuck up"

he got up and bent down, giving me another kiss "see you in a second" he wondered

i nodded, laying my head back down on the pillow  "you will"

~~~~~

"hey mister" i stoped walking when i was next to jeremiah, i looked at him and noticed his jaw was clenched

he seemed off

"what's wrong?" i asked him, taking ahold of his hand but he pulled it away

"my dad left" he said then pointed in front of us at the dock, belly and conrad. i heard something being lit

i looked at jeremiah's hand and saw him with a firework, pointing it at belly and conrad

fuck, of course he likes her

the fireworks flew at the right time, when the two were about to kiss

i scoffed and started to walk away, but i was stopped

jeres hand gripped my own "i'm sorry" he said "i just need time" he exclaimed

tears fell from eyes and i harshly pulled my hand away from him "i hate you" i breathed, i felt bad. but he has feelings for my sister

"penny!" he called out my name, but i just walked away "pen!"
