Beck's POV:
I sat down on the end of the pier, right next to Cat. After looking everywhere for the rest of the gang, we gave up. We were looking for them for almost 2 hours. I laid down, my hands behind my head, sighing. I was completely exhausted.
"Were so lost. So lost! Were never going to get out of here. What if there is a ghost here or something? What if the ghost ate everyone.."
"I'm sure it's a nice ghost. It probably took them out for tea." I said, getting a little annoyed at everyone. Where did they go?
But Cat obviously didn't catch my sarcasm. "Ooh yea, do you think that there's cake there too?" She said, smiling at me. Then her stomach growled, and I just realized that I'm really hungry too. Cat pouted, and looking at the lake again. "I want cake.."
I sighed, and sat up. This was pointless. We should just walk back to the beach house. But just then, I heard a familiar voice.
"You guys! Were baack! Where have you been?" Trina said, as she walked up to us.
"What, are you finally taking a break from making out in a secret hiding place?" Tori said, rolling her eyes. I saw Cat blush, and I smiled to myself. But then I realized just what we were doing the past 2 hours.
"Where have we been? Where have you guys been? We were out looking for you for 2 hours!" I said, standing up.
"We went back to the beach house to get our swimsuits. Yours too." Said Andre, throwing our swimsuits at me.
"It took 2 hours?"
"We came back here after getting them, but you weren't there so we went out for ice cream." Robbie said, as if nothing was wrong. I rolled my eyes.
"Well, come on! Go get changed and meet us back here." Andre said, taking off his shirt. Everyone else must of changed into their swim suits at the beach house.
"Where are we supposed to change?" I asked.
"Most likely together." Tori mumbled to herself. I rolled my eyes.
"Come on Cat." I said, taking her hand and walking away, as they undressed and jumped in the lake.
I finished changing into my trunks, as my cell phone vibrated in my pants pocket. I reached in, expecting it to be Cat, but seeing Jade's number instead. I sighed, figuring I had to get this over with.
"Hello?"
"There you are! Who do you think you are? I've called and left voice mails." Jade shouted at me.
"Well, sorry, but I've been having fun in Cuba."
"Oh sure, lots of fun with a red bimble head holding your hand. 'Ooh Beck, your so awesome. Show me how you open a can again?'" Jade said, 'mimicking' Cat.
"Your being ridiculous. We broke up, remember? I can date whoever I want."
"No, you can't! Were supposed to be together! Not you and some bipolar freak! What do you see in her anyways? She's nothing but air."
I paused, just as I was about to reply. What exactly do I see in Cat? She's almost the complete opposite of Jade. But maybe that was exactly it.
"See, you can't even tell me. This is just a skam to make me jealous, isn't it? Well guess what? I'm going to make Cat wish she never even looked at you." Jade said, hanging up. I sighed, putting my phone away. I knew Jade wouldn't take it well, but now she was going a little too far.
I picked up my stuff and headed towards the lake, just as Cat ran up behind me. She was wearing a black and white striped bikini.
"Hi! I was waiting for you outside." She said, smiling up at me. I smiled back.
"Sorry, I uh, got a call." I said, not wanting to lie to Cat.
"Oh, from who?" She asked, as we continued to walk.
"Oh, uh, nobody important. It was all a mistake." I said, not wanting to worry Cat about Jade.
"Oh, like a wrong number?"
"Yea, something like that." I said, smiling.
We arrived at the Lake soon after. Everyone was swimming, though Rex was sitting by a pole. I grabbed Cat's hand, and smiled at her.
"Shall we?"
"Is it cold?" Cat asked, looking down at it.
"Let's find out." I said, grabbing her and jumping in. We sank for a while until she started wrestling out of my grip. So I swam back up, as she gasped for air.
"You could of drowned me!" Cat screamed, looking at me. She looked hurt, and I felt really awful.
"Sorry. It was so comforting, I lost track of time." I said, watching as Andre and Tori dunked eachother.
How long were we under? I just felt so peaceful for the first time in a while. I looked over at Cat. She was starting to regain her color again, but still breathing hard.
"Are you alright?" I asked, grabbing her hand.
"Yea, I'm fine." She said, sighing. But I could tell I scared her.
"I really am sorry." I said, as Robbie shouted out at everyone.
"Hey guys, over here! Help me blow these up! This isn't fair!" Robbie said, as he was blowing up pool stuff.
I noticed a big blow-up lounge chair, and smiled.
"Go swim with Justas. I'll be back." I said, as I swam over to Robbie. I grabbed the big lounge chair, and started blowing.
Sorry it's so short guys! And sorry for the super long wait! What was it, almost two months? Again, I'm so sorry! I'm really stressing out with school and all, and so that's why I haven't been posting. I got put in all the advanced classes, and so I'm piled with tons of homework and studying. But don't worry, I don't plan on stopping this story. I'm going to try to post again soon. Thanks a bunch to everyone who's supported me, and thanks for putting up with the long waits!
