Same disclaimer.

Ansley wrapped her fingers around the menu as she scanned the list of soups. The window that she was sitting next too looked out on to one of the exclusive Hamptons beaches. A light breeze tangled her hair and carried with it the smell of the Atlantic Ocean and giggles of children accompanied by their nannies while their parents were at one black tie event or another. Forrester reached across the table and smoothed a messy section of Ansley's hair. She blushed and looked down at her brand new Cupid's strawberry ice wedge heels. She had not truly blushed in what seemed like ages.

It had been Forrester's idea to take a day trip to the muggle Hamptons. He had sent Ansley an owl the previous morning.

Ansley,

I am sick and tired of the city I cant breath in this damn stifling summer air Want to go a trip away from all this so called magic

Forrester.

Heath had never written her little notes or taken her somewhere other than the local pub in the village near their schools. Forrester never called her Ans. She hated when Heath called her Ans. Only Lacey and Chase could call her that. She loved that when Forrester wrote really quickly he forgot to add periods and apostrophes.

Forrester asked the waiter for the check as Ansley took the last few sips of her lemonade which she had decided was not half as good as Butterbeer. Ansley starred at Forrester. There was still a little sand in his hair from the beach and his cheeks were stained with sunburn.

How cute!

After Forrester had payed, he and Ansley left the restaurant hand in hand. They had spent the day at beach eating melting ice-cream cones and riding rented bikes along the shore. Even though Ansley had been unsure at first about dating Forrester, she knew that she couldn't be happier. Well no. That was a lie. Ansley had seen Heath with Zoe again a few days before. She was as much of a slut as last time Ansley had bumped into her. And of course Heath had not changed. He had still winked at Ansley when she walked by, even though he knew she was dating his brother. He still had that same smirk on his face that said "I know you still want me". And that was true. Ansley still wanted Heath. No matter how amazing Forrester was, Ansley still would take forever to get over Heath. She had run to a near by bathroom and threw up after seeing Heath and Zoe together. She almost ruined a pair of Stevey Madman violet unicorn hair peep toe flats.

Ansley's mind wandered back to her bedroom at home in New York. Forrester stayed quiet for most of their stroll. He could tell when Ansley just wanted to think. This gave her time to think about her plans for the fall, and how to explain them to Forrester. Her bedroom had been invaded by suitcases the day before she left for the Hamptons with Forrester. Ansley did not want to listen to the other girls talk about her break up with Heath in the halls. She knew they would blow it out of proportion. She did not want to see them point at her and whisper about how she hooked up with Forrester to piss off Heath. She did not want to spend another year apart from her best friend, especially since she needed her the most now. She did not want to throw up anymore after seeing a happy couple or Heath and Zoe. But most of all Ansley did not want to hurt Forrester.

Ansley had made her decision the night she got an owl from Chase explaining where she would be going to school in the fall.

Ans.This sucks. We are staying here until Grand-mom gets better. Which is basically never. This sucks. I am going to be going to school here. As in England. Not back home. Save me please. At least Connor is here. Chase. P.S Come visit me. Pretty please. I will buy you shoes.

Chase's letter had the Weasley's address written on it so she would have no problem getting there. It was the whole telling Forrester thing that was the problem. By then Ansley and Forrester had walked down to one of the beaches. Ansley sat down, dug her feet into the cool sand and pulled Forrester onto the sand. Forrester now squinted because he refused to buy a pair of sunglasses. His reasoning was that, "I have a perfectly good pair at home." If only Ansley could be practical like that. But no. That girl can never have enough shoes.

Ansley grabbed hold of Forrester's wrist and played with the bracelet his cousin Maddy made for him. "I need to tell you something."

"Okay." Forrester furrowed his eyebrows. He knew this was not going to be good.

"I don't want to go back to school this year. Between everything that has happened this summer and not seeing Chase anymore, I feel like I have become an emotional and physical wreck."

"You could never be a wreck Ansley. You always have everything under control and you always look beautiful." Forrester looked at Ansley as he said this. He is too cute.

"I don't want to listen to all the gossip this year. And you know it will be there. No one will try to hide it from me. I just want something new. Away from New York. Chase sent me an owl." Ansley pulled the note from Chase out of her pocket. Forrester scanned it quickly before folding it and placing it in his Hi-flyer polo pocket.

"I will miss you. I understand though. Your mom told me about how you get sick after seeing Heath and Zoe. I would too. If you ever need to talk to someone, well I know this is going to sound cheesy but, you know where to find me." Ansley laughed at Forrester's remark and kissed him. She would miss him too.

Ansley sighed loudly. "Thank Merlin we got that over with. I really need something with a little alcohol in it to drink." Ansley stood up, straightened her classic navy cashmere tee shirt and helped Forrester up.

A/N: I hope you liked it. I wrote it quickly. I hope it is not too fluffy. I did my best to make Forrester understanding and sweet without being cheesy. And I hope I did well with showing how Ansley is feeling. Feedback would be lovely! Sorry it is so short! The next one will be way longer.
