Goodbye Dana
Chapter 4: Night at the Beach
Flashback
"Logan, there is something I need to tell you."
"What is it?"
"Well, I don't know how else to say this but I'm gonna be leaving PCA…… to go to France." said Dana as she buried her head between her hands.
"What?!"
(End Flashback)
3rd person P.O.V
Room 101 (A few days before the end of 8th grade)
It was only a matter of days before the end of school year 2004-2005, which was 8th grade for the gang. They just couldn't wait to officially become high-schoolers. High school was only a few months away. But a certain friend will be missing: Dana Cruz and she will definitely be missed. Everyone wondered what things would be like without her.
There were 2 days left in the school year. All the students at PCA had to start packing their things as school rules required that the dorms be (temporarily) vacated for the summer.
"Whew! That's the last of my stuff." said Zoey as placed her last piece of clothing in her suitcase.
"Yeah, I'm done too. Are you done, Dana? Cause I'm done and I love it when I get things done." said Nicole.
"No. Not yet. I haven't even started." replied Dana. She definitely had her work cut out for her.
"Don't worry. We'll be glad to help." said Zoey. She and Nicole stood up and began helping Dana with the all too complicated task of packing.
(3 hours later)
"Whew! I didn't know you had this much stuff. I mean, how could somebody like YOU have this many clothes and stuff?!" Nicole complained as she wiped the sweat off her forehead.
"Yeah, since when did you get this many clothes?" asked Zoey. "Did you go on some kind of a shopping spree?"
"Well, yeah….. Sort of." replied Dana.
"Ooh. Ooh. I think someone's trying to look nice for a special someone." teased Nicole.
Dana blushed after Nicole's remark. She tried her best to cover her now extremely-red cheeks.
"For who? Logan?!" asked Dana. She was clearly getting very defensive.
"Yes. Come on. Just admit it already! You like Logan!" said Zoey.
"No, I don't."
"Oh really? Then why did you agree to go on a date with him?" asked Zoey.
"It wasn't a date. I just didn't want to spend the rest of the year being on bad terms. That's all."
"Yeah, right. Haven't you realized that you guys have been hanging out a lot more often now than ever before?" asked Zoey. "I have to admit you guys seem to be getting along really well."
"And he gave you that really cute necklace." added Nicole.
"Would you guys stop it already? I'm not in love with him, okay?" exclaimed Dana.
"Okay. Okay. You're not in love with him." said Nicole, sarcastically.
(Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!)
Dana opened her cellphone to look at the new text message she just received. Not surprisingly, it was from Logan.
Hey, school's almost over so we should hang out. Meet me the beach 4.
"Who's it from?" asked Nicole as she stood up and approached Dana. She looked over Dana's shoulder hoping to get a peek at the new text message.
"Logan."
"What did he say?" asked Zoey.
Dana raised her eyebrows. "He wants me to meet him at the beach at 4."
"Well, are you gonna go?"
"Yeah, I think I am. After all, this is probably the last time I'm gonna be seeing him." said Dana.
"Umm… You might wanna wear a nice bathing suit tonight." Nicole suggested.
"Why?' asked Dana, despite knowing the answer to her own question.
"Dana, think about it: you and Logan alone by the beach…." said Nicole.
"Don't worry. Nothing's gonna happen tonight. It's just gonna be a casual picnic." said Dana.
"Yeah… 'A casual picnic'…"
The Guys Room
"Logan, that text message you just sent, who was it for?" asked Chase while placing his clothes in his suitcase.
"Dana." replied Logan. "I'm gonna be meeting her at the beach tonight."
Logan had just finished packing his things in preparation for the upcoming summer vacation. But he decided to do some additional packing. He placed all the things he needed for his 'picnic' with Dana in a separate backpack. It included a large beach towel, two regular towels, a blanket, a lighter, two Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, several cans of beer (and a condom). He quickly placed the condom in his pocket so his roommates won't notice. Logan had the night all planned out. He wanted tonight to be a night he and Dana will never forget.
"Oh and what exactly are you gonna be doing with her?" asked Michael. "Or should I say, to her?"
"Nothing. It's just a casual picnic" said Logan.
"Dude, if it's just a casual picnic, why did you just slip a condom in your pocket?" asked Chase while pointing at Logan's pocket.
"What condom? I didn't slip a condom in my pocket. You must be seeing things." said Logan.
"I don't think he's seeing things." said Michael.
"Whatever. I gotta go meet Dana. See you guys tonight." With that Logan shut the door behind him.
At the Beach
Logan sat down on the sand watching the waves, the birds flying by and the sunset. The PCA sunset was one of the most beautiful sights he'd ever seen. He always loved the beach, who doesn't? That's one of the many reasons he's loved PCA since day one. Now, he's in love with someone he never thought he could love. It's too bad she wasn't going to be around for long.
A lot of thoughts were going through Dana's mind as she made her way to the beach. She was having difficulty trying to figure out how she really felt about Logan. There has always been something there. Zoey and Nicole have a point. Those times she and Logan have been hanging out, they never 'killed each other' and she actually enjoyed his company. In fact, she seems to have become fond of him. After a few minutes of walking she found Logan sitting by the waves.
"Logan!" greeted Dana.
"Wow, you actually managed to make it here on time." teased Logan.
"Yeah, whatever." replied Dana with a smile.
"Since you're here, are you ready to go into the water?" asked Logan.
"Sorry. I can't. Umm.. I don't have my bathing suit." said Dana. At the back of her mind, she knew that that would not be a good enough excuse to stop Logan from trying to convince her to go into the water; even if it meant her stripping down to her bra and panties. Too bad she didn't come prepared. Nicole was right, after all.
"So? I don't have one either." Logan began to undress in front of Dana. First, he removed his sleeveless shirt, exposing his well-toned upper body. Dana couldn't help but stare at him. Then he unbuttoned his cargo shorts and pulled them down to reveal his red boxers. Dana looked away. This was a very awkward moment for her.
"What are you staring at?" asked Logan. Dana blushed a little upon hearing that question. "Why haven't you gotten undressed, yet?"
"I already told you! I don't have my bathing suit!" yelled Dana. "You can go ahead."
"Look, it's not that complicated." replied Logan. "All you have to do is take off your shirt and your shorts. You'll be in your bra and panties, problem solved."
"I'm not gonna strip down to almost nothing just for you!" said Dana. She was getting more annoyed by the minute.
"Well then, maybe you could use a little help." said Logan with a naughty smile. He approached Dana and was now within a few inches from her.
"Don't even think about it!" yelled Dana as she crossed her arms over her chest area.
Logan started playing with her hair (which was in a pony tail) and began to feel her up. While he was at it, he whispered in her ear. "Come on Cruz. I know you wouldn't even think about resisting." Dana just looked away.
Logan uncrossed her arms and began letting his hands roam freely from her shoulders down to her arms and eventually her chest area. His hands moved down lower and grabbed hold of her gray t-shirt. He slowly started to remove her shirt and to his surprise Dana did not resist. She actually helped him out by raising her arms as he removed her shirt to reveal a black bra. Logan moved behind Dana and massaged her back for a few minutes. She just closed her eyes and didn't make a sound. Then he grabbed the garter of her shorts and slowly pulled them down. He found that she had matching panties on.
Logan walked away but then decided to turn around when he realized Dana was not moving. He was surprised to see her frozen in place. Dana placed one hand over her bra and the other over her panties in an attempt to cover up her now exposed body. It looked as though she was stripped of something other than her clothing: her pride. Logan has never seen Dana look so vulnerable. But Logan, being the guy that he is didn't feel too bad about helping his good friend get undressed. After all, he knew it was only a matter of minutes before she got over it. Besides, there was also the possibility that she was just pretending to feel embarrassed so that she could get more of his attention.
"Dana, what are you still doing over there?" asked Logan. "Aren't you going into the water?"
Dana began to speak after a few minutes of silence. "You did not just do that! You pervert!"
"What are you so embarrassed about? Dana, we've been swimming together for an entire quarter." Logan tried to remind her.
"What has that got to do with anything?"
"I've already seen you in a bikini…. several times." said Logan. "You were okay with that. So I don't see what your problem is."
"Logan, let me remind you that there is a difference between a bikini and a girl's underwear." said Dana.
"Oh yeah? And what's that?" asked Logan. "As far as I'm concerned, they reveal the same amount of skin."
"That may be true. But it's just that a bikini is something that is meant to be seen by people while underwear isn't." replied Dana. Logan gave her a ridiculous (disappointed) look. "Would you mind turning around, so I can get dressed?
"Fine, suit yourself." said Logan as he walked back to his spot and sat down. He felt very disappointed about Dana being so stubborn and sensitive. He was hoping she would be a better sport about this since they have gotten a lot closer the past several months.
Logan opened his backpack and pulled out a bottle of tanning oil. He wanted so bad to rub that stuff all over Dana's body (if she'd let him) but it was of no use. It didn't look like he was gonna get a chance to do that.
After several minutes of covering up, Dana realized that she was making a major mistake by not spending time with Logan. She only had one day left and she didn't want either of them to look back at this moment and say it was disappointing. So she removed her shoes and walked towards Logan who was spraying tanning oil all over his body. He began spreading the oil with his hands. Dana sat down beside him.
Logan and Dana stared at each other for a few seconds until Logan decided to break the silence.
"You know, we are very lucky to still have the sun out." he said. He reached out to Dana and offered her some tanning oil. "Tanning oil?"
"Sure." she replied. Before she could spray herself, she heard Logan call her name.
"Hey Dana, before you do that, would you mind getting my back?" asked Logan.
Dana's heartbeat began to speed up. Though she refused to admit it, even to herself, she had actually been dreaming about this moment. She always wanted to get her hands on Logan's well-toned body. Now was her chance to do just that.
"Turn around." she demanded, sounding more confident than she did earlier. She placed both her hands on his back and began to spread oil around that area. There was something about the oil that loosened her up. Somehow the oil's stickiness and the shiny appearance of the skin after it has been applied turned her on. Dana was gently spreading the oil all over Logan's back and she loved every minute of it.
"Thanks." he said.
Dana began spraying the oil all over her body, from her chest area to her legs and everywhere in between. Logan struggled to stop himself from drooling. He was hoping she would also ask him to 'get her back'. She decided to lie down on the beach towel in an attempt to get a perfect tan and Logan's undivided attention.
A few minutes had gone by since Dana began her tanning session and Logan was getting impatient. So he decided to offer to 'get her back', after all what has he got to lose?
"Dana, did you need me to get your back?" asked Logan. "Well… I mean it's difficult to reach and you wouldn't want to risk getting sunburn would you?"
"Umm… Okay. Sure. I was just about to turn over anyway." replied Dana. "I was just waiting for the oil to dry up a little."
Dana did just that. She turned over and was now lying on her belly. Logan started spraying as much oil on her back as he could. Then came the best part: rubbing it all over. Logan purposely took his time spreading the oil, he wanted to enjoy the moment for as long as he could. While he was at it, he ran into Dana's bra strap and decided to undo it. Dana tried to turn to look at him but she couldn't.
"Tan lines. I think you'd look better without them." Logan said to her.
Dana nodded. Logan took that as a go signal for him to bring down her shoulder straps ever so slightly. Despite all of his daring advances, Dana still appeared to be very relaxed. After he had finished having his fun, Logan was convinced that now was the perfect time to go into the water.
"I'll race you to the water. Loser makes out with the winner."
Dana fastened her bra strap and stood up. "You're on!" she said. They both started running as fast as they could. It turned out that it was a tie. They got to the water at the exact same time. But they didn't care about the result. All they cared about was being with each other and enjoying the other's company.
Logan and Dana were having so much fun together. They were splashing each other with water. Logan lifted Dana high above the ground while in the water as part of their 'wrestling match'. She felt like she was floating in air, living life in paradise.
Dana was running by the shore trying to get away from Logan as part of their little game of tag. Logan managed to catch up to her and tackled her to the ground. Now they were in a very awkward but intimate position: Logan lying on top of Dana. They gazed longingly into each others' eyes. Logan eventually placed his lips against Dana's while the waves continued to hit the shore and them. They were making out for about a minute before Dana came to her senses. She gently pushed Logan away and sat up.
"Dana, what's wrong?"
"I'm sorry. I can't do this." said Dana while gasping for air. Her assumption was right. Logan IS a great kisser and that's exactly what she feared the most. She knew that if she was to continue making out with him, one thing will lead to another and her virginity will be gone before she even realizes it.
"It's cool." said Logan. "Hey, it's getting dark, so I think maybe we should go into that cave over there."
"Alright." They both gathered the discarded pieces of clothing which were now covered in sand and made their way inside the cave.
Inside the Cave
It appeared as though everything was going as planned. Just the other day, Logan spent some time gathering the firewood in preparation for this special night. Now they wouldn't have to worry about keeping warm in the evening or being in the dark. Logan took the lighter out of his backpack and lit the pile of firewood.
"Hey, I just realized it's just about time for dinner. You hungry?" he asked Dana.
"Yeah. I'm starving. What you got?"
Logan opened his backpack and took out two sandwich bags. "Well, I have two Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches, one for you and one for me."
"Awesome!" said Dana. She was so hungry she could eat a horse or even a cow.
"But that's not all. I got us some booze too." Logan told her with a smile. He pulled a couple of beer cans out of his backpack and tossed one to Dana.
They began to eat their sandwiches. Let's face it: a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich is nothing special. But this time it was the most delicious meal either of them had ever consumed. The taste of the beers seemed to add even more flavor to the already delicious sandwiches. Logan only had one beer since he wanted to make sure that he was sober enough to enjoy what was to come. Dana, on the other hand, had already consumed three cans (that should be enough to get an eighth grader to feel a little tipsy).
"You're gonna be leaving tomorrow, huh?" Logan asked Dana.
"Yeah… Unfortunately." replied Dana. She looked sad at the thought of having to leave PCA and all her friends. They were the only REAL friends she ever had. But getting a chance to study in France was a once in a lifetime opportunity that she just couldn't pass up. "I'm gonna be living in France starting this summer. My parents thought it would be good idea since that would give me plenty of time to adjust to a new country and eventually a new school." she continued.
Dana got up and looked outside the cave. She looked up at the sky and stared at the moon, a full moon. It was the most beautiful full moon she had ever seen. "It's a full moon." she said to Logan.
While Dana had her back turned, Logan saw this as an opportunity for him to set down the beach towel, prepare the blanket and of course pull out the condom from his pants. He did just that. After he had finished his preparations, he walked up to Dana who was still staring at the moon with the condom hidden underneath his fist.
"Yup, you're right. It's a full moon." he commented. Dana undid her hair tie in order to let her hair down for no apparent reason.
"This could be the last one we get to see together." she said.
After she told Logan about her decision to study in France, they started hanging out more often. On basketball nights, they would sit beside each other and stare at the full moon after their competitive scrimmages. They did the same thing several times after every 'dinner date'.
Dana walked back inside the cave. Logan followed her closely from behind with the intention of 'influencing' her to walk towards a corner where she had nowhere to run. This was not a difficult task since she was not completely sober. It didn't take long before Logan had Dana cornered against the wall.
"So, have you changed your mind?" he asked.
"About what?"
He opened up his fist to reveal the condom. "Are you in the mood to make out (love) right now?"
"No, Logan. This isn't right. I don't think we should." said Dana. She was feeling really nervous. She really did not want to lose her virginity at the age of fourteen. There was the option of finding an escape route to get away from Logan. But something inside her made her want to stay.
"Did you wanna help me slip this on?" he asked, referring to the condom. Dana nodded 'no'. "I guess not. Maybe this'll change your mind."
Logan pulled down his boxers to reveal his extremely erect penis. Dana's eyes widened upon seeing Logan's manhood. Her mouth was wide open. The sight of "pretty boy" in the nude really turned her on. Logan slipped on the condom (A/N: Definitely the smart thing to do in this situation.) and closed the gap between him and his 'good friend'.
He began running his hands through her long, dark hair and brushed away the hair that covered her beautiful face. Then he started planting soft, wet kisses on her right cheek and moved down to her neck. Logan pressed his lips against Dana's and poked the opening of her mouth with his tongue to see if she'll let him in. Not surprisingly, she did and their tongues wrestled for a really long time. While this was happening, Logan's hands moved down on Dana's back until both of them settled on her ass.
Dana pulled away from the kiss. "Hey! Watch the hands!" she said with a seductive smile. Logan smiled back and they continued their make out session. After a while Dana wrapped her arms around Logan's neck and lifted one of her legs. In response, Logan picked up both of Dana's legs and slowly walked over to the beach towel without breaking the kiss.
Logan stood in front of the beach towel and slowly went down with Dana. He started kissing her neck. She giggled softly when he hit a certain spot. Logan saw that spot as a bulls-eye and bit down hard on it. That would leave a mark! He moved down and began kissing her in the breast area. While Logan was at it, his hands moved freely around the perimeter of Dana's bra. His soft touch gave her goosebumps all over her body. Logan turned her over with one hand and unclasped her bra with the other. He moved down and started sucking on her extremely aroused nipples. Dana gasped at the sudden jolt of pleasure that spread throughout her body. Logan bit down softly on her right breast which caused her to moan. He decided to take another bite. This time it was hard enough to cause anyone some pain.
"Oww!' yelled Dana. "What the hell did you do that for?!"
"None of your business!" yelled Logan in response.
He continued pressing downward with his kisses until his face reached her panties. Logan bit down on her panties and began to pull them down with his teeth. He used his hands the rest of the way. Dana spread her legs, bent her knees and placed both her hands over her breasts (what for?). Logan held her waist and pressed the tip of manhood at entrance of her vagina.
"Dana, are you sure you wanna do this?" he asked her.
Dana showed him a big smile. "Well, what do you think…..lover boy?" she said seductively.
"Umm…..Yes.(Duh!)" Logan responded. Dana nodded and closed her eyes. He grabbed both of Dana's hands and pinned her down. Logan thrust himself into her. She let out a small yell of pleasure (and pain). He continued to push his way inside of her. She screamed after every thrust and it just got louder and louder. After the first few thrusts, he could tell from the screams and the tightly shut eyes that she was going through a lot of excruciating pain. So he decided to let go of her hands to ease the pain a little bit. Once her hands were free, Dana wrapped herself tightly around Logan, hanging on to him as if he was all she had. The painful thrusts continued. They caused Dana to dig her nails into Logan's back. After a while, she found the found the thrusts a little more pleasurable. She moaned after every one and it just made Logan harder. So he started moving in and out of her until a nice steady rhythm developed.
Dana moved him under her and started to move up and down on him, moaning random words. Logan started caressing her breasts and she threw her head back in pleasure. Dana began kissing him on the lips and made her way down to his nipples. She bit down hard on his right one.
"Oww! What was that for?" he asked, looking really annoyed.
"Payback…." she responded with a naughty smile and wet her lips with her tongue.
Logan got really annoyed and moved her back down under him. This time Dana held him closer and wrapped her ankles around his back, pulling him deeper into her. He started thrusting into her again but this time the thrusts were harder and more violent making her scream his name.
"Logan…. Faster, no!…...Harder!!!" Logan continued what he was doing. After going at it for a while, both Logan and Dana gave in to their hormones. Dana reached her climax and Logan came into her a couple times before pulling out.
"Dana, are you alright?" asked Logan.
"Yeah. Never been better." she replied.
They were both really exhausted. Not only were they breathing heavily, they were both covered in sweat which was dripping from both their bodies. Logan removed the condom he had just used and threw it into the fire. He sat up and reached for the blanket and placed it over himself and Dana. After Dana calmed down from her climax, she cuddled next to Logan and placed her head on his bare chest. Logan placed an arm around her.
"So, are you gonna miss anybody here at PCA?" Logan asked.
"Of course, I will." she responded. "I'll miss all my friends: Zoey, Chase, Michael, Quinn, hell, even Nicole as annoying as she may be."
"I see…." said Logan as he looked at the top of the cave like a man gazing at the stars.
"Most of all, I'm really gonna miss you, pretty boy." said Dana. She moved up and planted a kiss on Logan's cheek.
"I'm gonna miss you, too."
They both fell asleep in each others arms. Nothing else in the world mattered at that moment. The only thing that mattered was the two of them being together that night….
A/N: It's not over yet! One more chapter to go. Please review.
