Not The Same: Chapter 16: Mia And Jesse: Jesse's POV:

Mia and I were at the beach eating hot dogs and looking at the water (A/N: This was a different beach then the beach Leon and Alex went to). I was thinking about what Letty told me earlier: There's a 'special someone' out there for everyone and you'll find 'em! Don't worry!. I sighed. She already found Dom so how the hell would she know.

I looked at Mia and saw that she had already finished her hot dog and was looking out at the beach. I kind of felt bad for her. She missed Brian. Everyone knew that. Dom even knew that but didn't say anything. One day I overheard him talking to Letty about how he still had respect for Brian and how he still had his good graces. He said that Brian helped him escape from the cops even though it was his job to turn him in. He still highly respected him and he told Letty that if he ever came back he would welcome him back. I also heard Mia telling Letty that Brian has been calling her to see how she was doing and stuff like that. She said she didn't want to tell Dom because she thought that he would get angry with her and we all know that Dom has a bad temper. I don't think Letty ever told her what Dom said. Mia keeps having hope that he would come back and for some reason I think he would.

I looked around the beach and saw a really pretty girl sitting on a towel on the sand. She was wearing tan shorts and a red tank top and sandals. She had light blond shoulder length hair and pale skin. She looked about 5'4 and has beautiful blue eyes. Mia saw me looking at her and smirked. "See something or should I say someone you like?" She asked.

"Shut up Mia! Back off!" I said still looking at the girl sitting on the towel with her legs spread out and crossed.

"Go up there and ask her out Jess! What are you waiting for?" She asked me pushing me a bit.

"She might have as boyfriend and mind your own business!"

"She might not. Go up there and talk to her Jesse. You'll never know if you don't go up there."

"Fine! Fine! But if she does have a boyfriend I'm gonna kick your ass!"

"Whatever! Just go!"

I walked up to this mystery girl and she looked at me and smiled. I felt a little tingle down my spine when she did that. I smiled back.

"Hey, I'm Jesse." I said giving her my hand to shake.

"Welsh Chicky." She replied shaking my hand.

"I never seen you around here before. Are you new here?" I asked her sitting down.

"Yeah. I just got here last week."

"What do you think of this place so far?"

"It's cool I guess. It's really not that fun around here. It's kind of boring since I barely know anyone here."

"Your boyfriend didn't want to be here with you."

"Don't got one." YES!

"Oh. Well.....if you want to....maybe I can....you know...show you around?" I stuttered.

"Really?! I'd love that! Thanks!" She said grinning.

"Yeah I can pick you up tomorrow. Say around...two?"

"Yeah, ok! Here's my address. I'll see you tomorrow at two," she said giving me her address and kissing me on the cheek before picking up her towel and leaving.

I touched the place she kissed me looking at her leave. I suddenly missed her. Suddenly Letty's words came to my mind: There's a 'special someone' out there for everyone and you'll find 'em. I think I have, maybe.

I looked at Mia who was looking at me smiling. I smiled back at her. Thanks Mia. Thank you so much.
