I have a new story. Read and review!

Anna's POV:

"Suzannah Laurel Isabelle Fisher! Get your butt down here,"called my mom from downstairs.

"Okay. Hold up! I'm almost done,"I called, looking at my blue duffel bag full of bathing suits, short-shorts, tanktops, flip-flops, rubber bands, three summer dresses, sun screen, and aloe vera.

I zipped it up and ran down stares.

In the living room stood my mom, Isabelle Fisher, my dad, Conrad Fisher, my brother, Justin Fisher. Everyone held a suitcase full of their clothes.

I looked at the brunnette who I resembled so much,"Mom, where is Uncle Jeremiah, Aunt Lacey, Cousin Shane, Uncle Steven, Aunt Emily, and Cousin Mason?"

Mom looked at me,"They can't come. This summer Jeremiah is in Hawaii and Steven is in Mexico. It's just gonna be us and Damon and Derek."

I can't wait to see him,I thought,Damon. I'd been in love with Damon since I was five up to now at the age of sixteen.

"What about Anika and Drew?,"I asked.

"Drew has to work and Anika is doing a movie. So they gave Damon and Derek money for a plane to get to Cousins."

Anika Dominique Dugless Mills was Damon and Derek's mom and was also a really rich actress. Drew Gregory Mills was their dad and was a full time doctor, so let's just say the family didn't have to worry about money.

Damon was seventeen and was an amazing football player. He was also as handsome as a god, but he was guarded. He was closed up and no one could get him to open up, but I loved him unrequitedly.

Derek was sixteen (my age) and he was as open as a book. He barely ever kept secret. He was my best friend, other than Sarah Davis (Taylor's daughter). He was skilled in soccer. He had a sort of innocent beauty that I always loved about him. I loved him like a brother (although I have enough of those).

"Oh,"I said."Okay."

"Well,"said Dad,"Shall we go."

Everyone got into the van, suitcases piled into the trunk.

It was a four hour drive to Cousins.


When we finally stopped at the summer house, I stayed in the car taking everything in.

It was the same summer house that Mom, Dad, Uncle Jeremiah, Uncle Steven, Grandma Laurel, and Grandma Suzannah all stayed at when they were younger.

The tradition stayed in the family. I have been living in this house every summer since my mom became pregnant with me. Anika, Mom's best friend, stays at the house with her family, too.

The house actually belongs to my dad and uncle, but they treat Anika and Steven like they own it, too.

I finally got out of the car and was tackled by a boy with sandy brown hair.

"Anna!,"yelled Derek in my ear.

"Honestly Dere. Give Anna some room to breath,"came Damon's bored voice.

Derek pulled away with a smile.

I looked over his shoulder to find Damon staring at me. I looked back Derek with a slight blush,"It's fine. You have every right to hug me unlike your brother."

Damon came over and shoved Derek out of the way. He smiled down at me. He pulled me into a big bear hug. When he pulled away, he laughed,"So much for not having a right to hug you."

I rolled my eyes and laughed,"Okay, okay. I give you permission to be allowed to hug you."

When I looked back over at Derek, he was talking to Jake and Justin.

I turned back to Damon,"Derek's changed a lot."

Damon nodded,"Girls are actually paying attention to him."

I smiled,"That's great. I guess they are finally seeing the hot guy I saw two summers ago."

Damon stiffened,"If you thought he was hot all that time, why didn't you ask him out?"

I hesitated,"I think of him as a brother. And besides, I have a boyfriend back home."

Damon raised and eyebrow at me,"Since when?"

"Since the Spring Formal when he saw me in my white dress."

"Oh yeah. My mom showed me pictures of it. So what's the guy's name?,"Damon's voice sounded strained to my ears.

"Aaron Wesh,"I said. I know it sounds wrong that I would be dating Aaron while I'm in love with Damon, but I have to at least try to get over Damon, and Aaron's a nice guy.

"Suzannah Laurel Isabelle Wesh. I can't picture it,"said Damon, smirking.

"You weren't meant to. I don't want to marry him. He's just for fun while I'm waiting for the right one,"I said without looking at him.

Damon took the hint, but did nothing about it as usual,"For fun, huh?"

I glared at him and hissed,"Youv'e had enough girls to understand it, right?"

Damon got really red with anger,"And you, on the other hand, haven't even lost your virginity, have you?"

"No,"I hissed,"No, I haven't, because I'm not some sort of slut like the girls you like."

With that, I stomped into the house and up to my room after grabbing my bag. I slammed my door and started crying.

I fell asleep with tears stained on my face.
