Chapter 10

Mia's POV

Lenny rented a wagon for us to ride in. No, not the kiddie wagon but more of a big wooden wagon with real horses and haystacks in it.

I was actually pretty excited about this ride, so was the rest of the gang cause they were screaming and cheering on the way to the park. Becky was probably the happiest kid right now as we rode in the wagon, I know how much of a nature lover she is. I was between Greg and Keithie again, and I leaned my head on Greg's shoulders as he wrapped his arms around me. I shivered from coldness which made Greg hold me tighter.

Today would be our official last day and night together. Tomorrow would be all about packing and saying goodbyes. I have no doubt that a few tears would be shed tomorrow...

We arrived at the park, it was packed with people again like the water park, we were the only one who had the idea of a wagon for a ride. We found a spot underneath the heat of the sun, though the cool breeze lessened the heat a bit. We set up the picnic baskets, some lawn chairs and blankets. Once everything was set, I removed my shorts and shirt and settled on my mint blue bathing suit, we (Donna, Andre, Greg and I) got out the inflated mattress and dragged it to the lake.

"Okay, it's on position." Greg said below me. I was already on the diving board or lifeguard chair or whatever.

"I don't know, man. This looks crazy.." Andre hesitated.

"It'll be fine. C'mon, I spent all morning blowing this thing up." Greg persuaded.

"You should be alright." Donna said while fixing the mattress.

"Should be?" Andre screamed as he padded across the mattress to sit on the edge.

"Yeah." I answered giddily as Greg and Donna ascended.

The three of us lined up, held hands and jumped to the mattress. We hit the mattress at the same time that Andre flies up into the air, flipping so that his back was the one towards the water and hits the water. Seconds ticked by and then Andre's head popped up the water screaming, "Let's do that again!"

"I'm next!" I yelled.

"You sure about this, babe? I don't you to get hurt.." Greg hesitated.

"I'll be fine. C'mon, line it up." I ordered as Donna just shrugged and began to fix it again.

I was by the edge of the mattress waiting for Greg to yell his cue. Andre joined the two on jumping, they got ready and jumped. I soared through the air what felt like hours and then dove into the water with a perfect form. I gasped for air as my head popped out of the water.

A few minutes later, we retired from all the swimming and went back to the picnic spot. I dried myself and then put my clothes back on. I started to towel dry my hair and did the same with Greg's, he just smiled at me in thanks. We settled down and started eating chips and fruits.

A few old guys approached us. "You sure you wanna do this, Bailey?" Lenny asked.

"My five against your five." Dickie Bailey said.

"Oh, boy.. Look at this. I see the boys stayed in shape, huh." Lenny chuckled as someone from the fat guys in front of us burped.

"Robideaux, good to see ya." Lenny referred to the crossed-eyed guy.

"Lenny." Robideaux acknowledged.

"If you're looking at me, I don't know." Lenny chuckled. "Look, fellas. We just want to eat some watermelons and relax, if you're alright with that."

"Oh no, it's not alright. You're not gonna wizzle out of this one, Feder. Wiley, snucked out of intensive care to see you finally get some justice.." Dickie said.

"Yo, you best be gettin' to ballin', Feder." Wiley, in a full body cast, said. So that was the guy who hanged himself by his feet at the water park...

I rolled my eyes and went back to my eating and Greg did the same.

"So what time are your parents going to arrive at the lake house?" He asked, mouth full of watermelon.

"Ew, close your mouth!" I scolded as he just smiled at me. "Hopefully, my parents arrive after you leave."

"Why? You don't want them to meet me?" He said, disappointment on his face.

"It's not that! It's just that they can be a bit..judgmental.." I said. That was an understatement.

"I can handle them. Trust me, babe. I'll show them my charming self." He said as watermelon juice dripped from his mouth.

"Great." I smiled forcefully. I'm dead...

"Alright, let's do this thing." Lenny agreed.

"Oh it's on!" Wiley cheered from the bleachers with the crowd.

A few minutes later, the crowd was waiting in anticipation for this game. I don't know why Dickie Bailey won't let this go. I mean, that game was years ago and he still hasn't gotten over it!

"Guys, look!" Keithie pointed as the dads appeared in a Water Wizz t-shirt. I laughed as Kurt stepped on Rob's injured foot without even noticing. Rob kept on screaming in pain but the others didn't seem to notice his loud cry. The moms appeared at the same time, wearing makeshift cheerleader outfits.

And so, the basketball game begins. Eric passed the ball to Uncle Marcus and then they ran across the court as my uncle passed it again to Eric. Eric faked left and then passed it to Lenny which then got our first score. The crowd began to cheer.

"Lucky shot." Wiley said. A few seconds later, Dickie's team got a score.

"Hey, guys. Motion 78!" Rob called out. He faked right then passed the ball to his left which my uncle caught and then he began to circle the ball in front of the guy and passed it to Eric. Eric caught it and dribbled it, Kurt was open so he passed it to him, but instead of catching the ball, he head-butt it. That's gotta hurt, I winced. Lenny caught the ball and did his famous bank shot as we scored again!

"Hey, Wi. Where's M, C, A?" My uncle joked as we all laughed.

The dude with the eye thing got distracted by Curly's barking so Lenny stole the ball and Uncle Marcus got us a point again! I stood up and cheered.

The game went back and forth, getting very close to each other. The guys on the court were obviously tired. The other black guy shot the ball into the air but it went over the basketball hoop and into some fat lady's lap, spilling her drink.

The game continued, but I saw Eric and another fat guy leaning onto each other and making weird noises. Suddenly, Eric and fat guy over there yelled in pain. Eric twitched his body as he limped towards us. Sally got up and helped Eric to sit down..

"This is ridiculous. Somebody's gonna have a heart attack.." Uncle Marcus said. I agree, seeing as they were all breathing hard and face red as a tomato.

"What do you say we bring my son and your son into this?" Lenny asked as Greg's eyes widened. I clasped my hand with his and squeezed slightly.

"Done." Dickie agreed.

"Greggie." Lenny called out.

"Me?" Greg pointed to himself. He looked scared and nervous.

"You'll be fine." I encouraged him. He looked at me in terror. I lightly kissed him on the lips. "You'll do great..." He half smiled at me as he got up.

We all cheered him on. "Hey, somebody fill that jug with some Boss water for the Hollywood kid." Dickie taunted.

"It's Voss. With a V." Greg corrected.

"Ooooh." Bailey's kid sarcastically said.

"Hey, do you mind if I touch your belly? I love babies, I love to feel them kick." Wiley said next to us.

"Yeah, sure. Go ahead." Deanne agreed.

Wiley bended his upper body, but instead of Deanne's belly it was her boob.

"That's not my baby. That's my boob." Deanne said.

"Ooh, I like to feel thos too." Wiley flirted.

"Hey." Eric warned as Wiley backed off.

The game resumed. Lenny scored the first one and then it was the Bailey's turn. They passed the ball back and forth but then Bailey's kid blocked Greg and tangled themselves with Lenny. Dickie's foot was on the line as he shot the ball and we all screamed in protest.

That was clearly just a two, not three!

Lenny and Greg passed the ball back and forth because Greg couldn't take his shot because of the Bailey kid so he just passed it to his dad. Lenny caught the ball and he had a clear shot but I saw him hesitated before shooting the ball. The ball bounced off from the board and the ring. Dickie scored another one and so they won. The crowd cheered for Bailey.

"I'm sorry, dad. We'll crush them next year. I'll work on my left when we get back to LA." I heard Greg promised.

"That's my boy. Come here. I love you." Lenny replied as they hugged. All the families hugged their respective family. I hugged my Uncle Marcus with sweat and all.

"You did great out there, Uncle Marcus." I said smiling up to him.

"I know, kid." He said.

"But you're getting old and your pass was weak." I joked.

"Okay, let's not ruin the moment." He grinned.

I released him and went back to find Greg. I saw him looking down from their loss. I surprised him by giving him a peck on the cheek.

"Hi.." I said.

"Hey." He smiled sheepishly.

"C'mon on, cheer up! You did a great job." I tried to reason with him.

"Yeah, but I wasn't good enough."

"You tried and that's all that matters." I hugged him tightly and he did the same.

I pulled him to out spot and got a towel. He removed his shirt and I tried hard not to gap. I dabbed the sweat off of him and offered another shirt. He put its on and pulled me to his lap.

Hours later, the evening was dark and colder. I hugged Greg's hoodie closer to my body and leaned my back to Greg's chest as we gazed up the sky. The different colors of the fireworks were blindingly beautiful.

Greg pressed his lips to my temple and hugged me closer. I smiled contentedly.

This has been the best Fourth of July I have ever had.

I am so gonna miss these people.

It's like a fairytale setting. With the fireworks and Greg's warm arms wrapped around me... What could ever spoil this moment?

"Alright, everybody! Last one to stay wins!" My uncle screamed as Lenny protested. Well, this ruined the moment. He shot the arrow into the sky as we all scrambled up to run away.

Everybody was screaming and I held Greg's hand tightly as we ran to the cover part of the park. Once we were there, we burst into fits of laughter.

"I can't believe your uncle just did that." He tried to say while still laughing.

"Yeah. Me too. Same old uncle Marcus." I laughed.

Once we calmed down, our faces were flushed from laughing and began to lean towards each other with our hands clasped with each other. Mine touched his lightly and he pulled me closer, pressing his lips firmly on mine. We broke apart and he hugged me tightly as we looked up the sky. Yup, still oh so perfect..


A/N: Okay, so I updated. YAY! Thank you for the awesome reviews and to answer them here it is:

Annika Sparks: Stay tuned. ;)

SimplyKelly: I do agree with you. It's weird for him to do that to an older female while he already has a girlfriend, but what can you do? He's a teenage boy.. thank you for worrying about me and I'm all better now. :)

Candyluver2121: The reason why she doesn't ignore him because it's their last day together and I don't want them to fight on that day. I guess I could have him grovel for Mia's forgiveness but then it will lessen the sweet moments together and she's too sweet to smack someone in the head. :)

Leave a review. :* (Stay tuned for the last chapter this week. Aaaaw. :( I know, I'll miss it too. But I do have exciting news. So stay tuned.)

xoxo,

Violet.
