A/N: Well, I'm off to a dance competition in Halifax this weekend but I'm in the writing mood, so I think I'll try to write as much as possible today and tomorrow before my flight, so I can get back into this story! Sorry I'm not touching either one, but nobody's reviewing, so it doesn't feel like I'm writing it, so I don't want to write to myself. That's KINDA creepy to me (: . So, the date scene. Enjoy.
Chapter 20: My Summer Girl
(ZPOV)
First date. My first date. My first date with Jacob. Well, not really, but since our separation, split, whatever you want to call it, it's the first date. The excitement is radiating through me. I know what we're doing today, where we're going. We're going for dinner, and then Jacob agreed to go to Port Angeles with me to cruise a mall for a while; my music selection is getting horrendously low. That's when I heard a knock on the door. I went downstairs to answer.

I put on some jeans and a polo, and went across the street to Zoe's. I knocked on the door, and she answered, I'm guessing mid-dressing because she was missing a shirt. I laughed, and she looked down, and broke down laughing, gave me a quick kiss, and went upstairs. I took my shoes off, and followed her up.
She went into her closet and took out a shirt from the Warped Tour 2008. I remember her telling me that she went across Canada and the States last year just to get almost every show possible. It ended with her being flat broke, but happy and with enough shirts to clothe a regular human for years. A werewolf however: only a month or so. She was careful to never wear these shirts if she thought she'd be getting angry or lose her temper; they meant the world to her. After me, that is, I hope.

We left my house, and went to just a simple place, a Wimpy's Diner that was just in town near the mall, and then off we went. I went to the clothing stores first. Pac Sun for some jeans; Hot Topic then D-tox for even MORE band shirts. That's when we got to the music store. The doors to HMV were just looming in front of me. I heard a small chuckle come from Jake, and looked over and hugged him. He had promised to buy me at least 2 of the CD's that I wanted. That greatly helped because I was not doing well in the money department. I really needed to get a job, but with La Push being so tiny, there wasn't much room for one.
I raced through the isles, the first one I picked up was 'Masterpiece Theatre' by Marianas Trench. I walked further down for 'Attics To Eden' by Madina Lake, and then Billy Talent III. This continued for hours of me just going through the store. Jacob got tired, so he sat down when I was in an isle for a given amount of time, and I even went and sat next to him with piles a few times just to look over them and he helped me pick what to get.
Two hours later, and 13 CD's out of my own money paid for later, and then two that Jacob paid for, I smiled, and pulled him over against the rail outside the bookstore and wrapped my arms around him, kissing him for all it was worth, just a little teaser, and then broke off, and walked into the bookstore. He groaned. This was going to be a long night for him, but just because he was with me, I knew that he wouldn't even complain.

After we left the mall, we went back to Zoe's house, and just hung out in her room, listening to the music that was playing softly in the background. It was only 8, and since it was nearing the end of June, it was still pretty warm outside. That's why I laughed at the irony of the song playing on the radio, "Summer Girl" by some band called Stereos. Apparently they won some competition on a music channel a while back. All I knew, was that they were one of Zoe's favourite bands.
It was just now that I realized how much this song sounded like my life.
"(Do-Op
Do-Op Well if you're feelin' me Tonight
is all we got
Even though we shouldn't
Summer Girl you're right for
me)
Let's make a memory
My
heart is meltin' cause you're
Hot like the Summer Heat
And there's no time to stop
We think about this
Should we or Should we not
And I
Know
That you got a man
But I'm Here
So put me in your
plans
And I'll Be
What you need tonight
And I'm never
gonna see you again"
I know
that sitting here, in quiet with Zoe, this is all you can hear in the
background, as much as it reminded me of Bella, it didn't make me
miss her, if anything it made me understand. "I wanna Do-Op Do-Op No need to take it slow
Let's make it happen Shawty
Do-Op Do-Op
It's got to be now
Do-Op Do-Op
Even though we shouldn't
Summer Girl you're right for me
'Cause soon I gotta go

Gotta take
advantage of a
One Summer Night
That you
got a man
But I'm Here
So put me in your plans
And I'll
Be
What you need tonight
And I'm never gonna see you again"
I knew
that, Bella was like my summer girl. She was before, and I'd never
see her again. But she wasn't my summer girl anymore. "Do-Op
Do-Op Sing it again now
Let's make it happen Shawty
Do-Op Do-Op

Do-Op Do-Op
Even though we shouldn't

Do-Op Do-Op

Summer Girl

All about a Girl
like a
Summer Breeze
I'll never see her again"
I had tried to make Bella see the best of her inner self, but it was no use, and there was no reason for me to keep trying. When I was with Zoe, she was herself, she held nothing back, and neither did I. Zoe was truly, my summer girl, my imprint. The girl that I loved unconditionally, and nothing, not even my past, could ever change that.
"Zoe? I have to say something. I know that it's soon and we just got back together. But, I want you to know. That no matter what happens, I'll always love you. Nothing, not even the world ending, could ever change that."
She looked up at me through those big brown eyes of hers, and her expression melted to complete love. That's the only way to describe it. It was a look of love. She leaned in and kissed me, running her hands into my hair to stroke my head, and curling up in my lap. We just kept kissing until the sun went down, and even then, only stopped to change into more comfortable clothes and kept going. The last thing I remember hearing that night was a whisper in my ear from the most beautiful creature in the world.
"Jacob. I love you. And even this rift between us could never change that."
I pecked her on the cheek, and closed my eyes, wandering into the world of dreams.
A/N: So, there you have it, finally a chapter! Yay! So, if some of you were completely lost on that song. Summer Girl by Stereos! One of the most amazing bands of all time! AND if you don't know who they are, look up muchmusic and disBand, they won the first season, were at warped for some dates (I MISSED warped. I was at my aunt's house:[ so, there was no Chiodos, no Madina Lake, nothing.)
As always, Review please
