I just realized I'm starting the last few chapters of this story...wow:(

But thanks for all your feedback and support!

Ps, I reread Sleep Away a few days ago and fell in love with Massington...now I don't know who Massie will end up with. I'm torn!

Ps part deux, I'm sorry this is short! But it's winter break so I have some free time and I'll write long chapters and update frequently

Oh and someone asked me why in all of my other stories, I write professional sounding, but in this story, I write with run-on sentences or say 'like' all the time. I'm writing in Massie's point of view and writing how I picture her speaking, which is the way I (and many teenage girls) speak. I don't know if that made sense, but I just wanted to clear that up for you(:

We're -we being me, Dylan, Claire and Olivia, Nikki is nowhere to be found- lounging on the beach beside the boys, hoping to get just a little browner before summer's over.

And today's the day we're asking the boys to the Social. Well, Claire, Olivia and Dylan are. I think it'd be better if I went alone. And so far, Dylan's the only one with a date. As soon as we set up our towels, she went over to the guys, asked them to come hang out with us and told Danny Robbins they were going together.

Yes, the Danny Robbins that Claire slept with and that Olivia loved. But we'd come up with the plan that niether of them were going with him, in case he got the wrong idea or if it just caused more drama.

"Let's go swimming," Cam nudges my calf with his toe.

"I'm tanning," I murmur, since my face is pressed into my towel. "Later."

"Noo, now!" he whines like a little kid. "Come on, Mass. I'm bored. Pleeeeaasseee?"

I look up to find him starin at me with his multicoloured eyes wide and pleading, and his lips stuck out in a pout.

I laugh. "Has anyone told you how lame you are?"

Camp stops pouting to ponder it. "No, I don't think so."

"Well someone has now," I stand up and stretch.

Cam jumps out excitedly. "Are we going swimming now?"

I grin and push my hands against his chest, making him fall back down. Sand sprays up and hits me with a bunch of little pricks but I've become accustomed to the feeling of gritty sand hitting my sensitive skin. "Last one in the lake's a loser," I shout at him, turning around and running as fast as I can down to the shoreline.

Before I can slowly wade into the water (this lake is at arctic temperatures, no lie), Cam appears behind me. He scoops me up, princess style, and wades in up to his knees before dropping my squirming body into the lake.

And trust me, it's freezing.

"Cam!" I shriek, sending a spray of water towards him. "I hate you!"

"No you don't," he grins before dunking his head under the black water. When he resurfaces, he shakes his dripping black hair, sending freezing droplets of water towards me. "No one can resist my charm and good looks. Not even you, Block."

"Yes I can, Fisher," I pinch my hand behind my back, annoyed that I can't come up with a better comeback.

"So the Social's coming up. We going together?" he doesn't look at me, instead looking at his hand that he drags palm side down back and forth in the water.

An unexpected blush creeps into my cheeks. Before I can reply, Cam shrugs nervously. "You know, as friends."

"Uh, sure," I say with a smile. "It'll be fun!"

"Massie," I hear a familiar voice say from the beach. I turn around to see Derrick and his shaggy blonde hair and golden four pack and chocolate milk coloured eyes beckoning me. Um why? "Can I uh talk to you?"

I look at Cam, who's crossed his arms. "I'll see you later," I say. Sure, it's kinda mean to ditch Cam but it's Derrick.

"Hey," I say as I reach him on the shore. He hands me a towel with a smile. "Thanks," I quickly dry off and pull on a pair of black shorts.

"I was thinking maybe we could go for a walk?" he shuffles nervously.

"Sure," I say, surprised. My eyes narrow. "What is this, Derrick? You dump me at the beginning of summer then pretty much ignore me after that. And now you want to go for a walk and talk?"

"I just," he looks down. "Look, I was just thinking about last summer and I-I miss you."

Warmth spreads through my body. He misses me? Really? I bite my lip. "Oh?"

"And last year at this time I was trying to psyche myself up to tell you that I..I loved you," he blushes. "And ever since I started thinking about last summer, it's like part of me has been uh trying to psyche myself up to tell you I miss you and I still love you..."

I feel like I want to cry, but I don't. Derrick misses and still loves me. And I miss him and still love him! "So..." I trail off, taking a step closer to him and looking up at him through my lashes.

"So, I was thinking," Derrick swallows, "maybe we could go to the uh the Social together?"

I throw my arms around Derrick, inhaling the familiar scent of Axe. His arms immediately wrap around my waist, something I haven't felt in forever. "Sounds like a plan."
