I grabbed Vaughn's hand and dragged him outside. The cowboy teen sighed but didn't resist. His silver hair was waving in the wind under his official cowboy hat.

"Come ON slow poke!" I giggled.

"Chelsea you are very irritating!" Vaughn grunted.

We- well- I ran; Vaughn was just getting dragged by me, all the way to Denny's shack on the beach. All the way, Vaughn was trying to talk me out of doing this. I didn't care. I sprinted across the bridge leading to Sprout Island.

Denny was leaning against his front door talking to Lanna with his arms crossed.

Denny looked cuter than ever. His wavy brown hair was floating along with the breeze and his gorgeous brown eyes staring right into Lanna's. Jealousy over took me.

I held Vaughn's hand tighter as we walked up to them. Vaughn blushed but looked away embarrassed. I grinned as Lanna and Denny turned to look at us.

I felt like I was in slow motion walking up to Denny and Lanna. My hair blowing in the wind and Vaughn's silver bangs swaying with the breeze. We reached the two fishing teens hand in hand and I snapped back into reality.

"Hey guys! You know Vaughn, my boyfriend." I raised my eyebrow.

"Yeah..." Vaughn rolled his eyes.

I squeezed his hand telling him to behave.

"Wow so you guys really are a couple?" Lanna asked.

"Yup!" I smiled.

"Congrats you guys! Well me and Lanna are going to go fishing out on the pier, good talking to you guys!" Denny smiled weakly. I could tell he was hurt inside.

Suddenly, all I could feel was guilt. Denny really did like me and I acted like a total jerk.

"Okay whatever... well nice talking to you guys. Bye." Vaughn said.

"Yeah see you guys later..." I said weakly.

Vaughn and I walked away and we let our hands fall back to our sides. I sighed still feeling awful about Denny.

I swiftly walked Vaughn back to Mirabelle's store. Mirabelle left a note for Vaughn saying she would be back soon. I sighed and started to leave the store.

"Thanks...Vaughn." I sighed, looking back.

"What's wrong?" Vaughn whispered.

"Huh?"

"What's wrong?" Vaughn said louder.

"Oh well I just feel bad about what we did-" I started.

"We? No you did! I didn't wanna be a part of this!" Vaughn said angrily.

"I didn't force you!" I yelled.

"Yeah you did! You were gonna hurt a chick!"

"So? Maybe you should get over your animal obsession!"

"Screw you Chelsea!" Vaughn shouted.

"Well whatever! I HATE YOU!" I screamed.

"Denny loves you." Vaughn replied quietly.

Vaughn hurt me and boy was he proud! He knew I felt horrible about trying to make Denny jealous and he completely hit me where it hurts. I felt one hundred times more guilty and embarrassed now that even Vaughn noticed.

"You think I don't know that? I feel so bad, so thank you Captain Obvious!" I started to cry.

Then I slammed the door leaving Vaughn in the dark store.

I ran home sobbing. I ignored Will who tried to ask me what was wrong. Finally, when I got home there was a note on my door. I pulled it off harshly and started to read it.

Chelsea-

I really am happy for you and Vaughn but I don't want you to hate me. You seemed upset back at my house. If you care about me at all, please meet me on the pier by my house tonight at 6!

-Denny

What to do now? I was stuck. I sulked into my house and buried my head in my pillow. I felt like crying but my eyes were dry of tears. Denny had been my best friend since we were kids. I had to tell him the truth about Vaughn and I. I decided to drag myself out of bed and get up and walk to the beach.

I walked out of my farm house to see Will walking up the path from Verdure Island.

"Chelsea!" Will called waving at me.

"H-hey Will!" I stuttered.

"I saw you crying earlier and I just wanted to be polite.."

"Thanks Will but its nothing."

"Guy trouble?" Will smirked.

My eyes widened in shock, then I smiled.

"Uh huh haha how did you-"

"It's Denny isn't it?"

"Y-yeah.."

"He likes you a lot." Will sighed.

'THANK YOU CAPTAIN OBVIOUS!'

"I have to go.." I sighed, "But thanks Will... for caring." I smiled.

"Sure, see you Chelsea." Will grinned.

I left Ranch Island along side Will. After Will had walked to his home. I came to my senses and started sprinted towards the beach.

There was Denny sitting on the pier. His legs hanging over the edge, wading in the water. He looked like he was in deep thought.

"Denny?" I called from in front of his shack.

"Chelsea! You came!" Denny smiled getting up and running towards me. From his ankles down his pants and shoes were soaked.

Denny grabbed me in a big bear hug. The same hug we always shared. He let his arms unravel and he grinned.

"Wanna come inside?" Denny asked.

"I'm not going to be here for too long so..." I blushed.

"Ok look Chelsea, I am really sorry that I was such a jerk! I am happy for you an Vaughn I just want you to be my best friend again!" Denny sighed.

"Listen-"

Before I could say anything else Denny's lips were crushing mine. I tried to pull away but he wouldn't let up. Finally I just gave in until he was done. His lips weren't how they used to be. This kiss was rough and not careful, it also had a strange fishy taste! YUCK.

"Denny stop!" I yelled.

"I know you have a boyfrie-"

"No. I have to tell you the truth!"
