Chapter Fifteen: A Little Too Much Fun
~*Manny*~
"Here I'd been thinking we wouldn't see you until at least Monday." I walked into the kitchen, surprised to find Spinner holding a cup of coffee. "And please don't tell me you made that."
Spinner laughed, and shook his head. "Hazel did. And as for the rest..." he winked. "I wore the poor girl out."
I poured myself a cup, and pointed towards the pool. "I'm gonna take this outside. Care to join me?"
Spinner shook his head. "Gotta bring some of this back to the lady. I think Hazel's still out there though, and Marco too."
"Have fun." I replied. "Morning!" I said, as I let myself out.
"Hey girl." Hazel greeted me.
"Well aren't you in a good mood." Marco noted. "You've been one big ray of sunshine since we got here."
"What can I say?" I shrugged. "I just needed to get away from things for awhile. You know, I've seen you since last night, but I haven't seen Dylan. Is he having a good time?"
Marco blushed. "He has. He's um, sleeping now."
Hazel laughed. "Nothing to be embarrassed about, honey. Enjoy yourselves."
"I uh, think I'll get back to...Dylan. Later." Marco stood up, and walked back inside. Hazel and I looked at each other and grinned.
"Finally!" Hazel exclaimed. "I swear, I thought I was going to have rip their clothes off and throw them together myself!"
I laughed. "Now that would have been a sight."
"A sight I wouldn't mind seeing." Hazel replied.
"Oh yeah." I replied with a mischievous giggle.
"Wouldn't mind seeing what?" Craig asked as he came outside, guitar in hand.
"Oh, um, nothing." I looked at Hazel and tried to suppress a giggle.
"Where is everyone this morning?" Craig asked, strumming a random tune on his guitar.
"Where do you think? In bed!" I replied, nudging him. "Or did you forget about last night?"
Craig blushed a little. "So", he said, stopping his strumming to tune a chord. "What's on the agenda today?"
"Hazel, Ashley, Bianca and I are gonna explore the shopping in town. Wanna come?"
Craig wrinkled his nose. "You left your shopping in Canada to come to the Caribbean to...go shopping?"
"It's different shopping, Craig! Tourist-y stuff." Hazel replied.
"I dunno." Craig had found a tune this time and was strumming it loud and proud, a sunny, happy melody.
"Come on, where else can you find the shrunken head of a native?" I asked.
Craig stopped strumming. "A real shrunken head?"
~*Spinner*~
I walked into mine and Paige's bedroom, carefully holding two mugs of coffee. "Paige? You up?" I asked, staring at her form, covered only by a thin white sheet.
"Barely." She replied, not moving.
"I brought you some coffee." I said, setting it down on the bedside table.
"I think I'm gonna need it." She replied. She sat up, covering herself with the sheet, and drank from the mug. "Man, that's good coffee."
"I think it's Jamaican." I replied, sitting down on the bed next to her. "So..."
"So." She agreed, looking at me. I couldn't help but smiled at her messy hair.
"Did you have fun?" I asked.
She smiled, and kissed me. "Last night was the greatest night of my life."
"Really?" I asked.
"Really." She replied.
"You wanna get some breakfast?" I asked, retrieving her clothes off the floor.
"In a minute." She replied. "Gavin?"
My head snapped up. She only called me Gavin when she was mad at me. "Yeah?"
"I love you." She replied.
"I love you too, Paige." I replied, kissing her gently. She kissed me back, more forcefully, and I laid down on top of her, pulling my shirt over my head.
"What about breakfast?" she asked as I kissed her neck.
"Screw breakfast." I replied, pulling the covers over us.
~*Jimmy*~
I slowly came into consciousness and stretched, the sun warm on my face. Turning to Bianca, I ran my hand over her shoulder and then gently kissed it. "Bianca? You up?"
"Mmmm." She muttered, rolling toward me and burying her face in my chest, snuggling up closer. I smiled, and stroked her hair.
"Come on, baby, let's get up. We're in the Caribbean." I reminded her.
Finally, she rolled over on her back and stretched, opening her eyes. "Morning." She said.
"Morning." I replied, kissing her. "Did you sleep well?"
"Like a rock." She replied, stretching again. I eyed her carefully.
"You sure? No nightmares?" I asked.
"No nightmares." She agreed.
"Are you still going shopping with Manny and the crew?" I asked.
"Yup." She replied.
"Then we should probably get showered." I said, getting up.
"Um, Jimmy, as hot as I'm sure it would be, I think you should shower alone." She replied.
"Who said I was offering?" I teased as I walked out of the room to head to a bathroom.
"Very funny!" she yelled.
~*Marco*~
I couldn't believe this was my life. Lying in a bed in the Caribbean while being wrapped up in the arms of someone I had wanted for what seemed like forever didn't happen in real life. It happened in movies. But somehow, I was lucky enough to have it happen to me. I sighed happily.
"What are you thinking about?" Dylan asked.
"You. This. Us." I replied, rolling out of the "spoon" position to look at him.
"Pretty amazing, huh?" Dylan asked.
"Definitely amazing." I replied, staring into his eyes.
"So what do you wanna do today?" he asked, tracing lazy circles on my arm.
"I don't know." I replied. "What do you wanna do?"
"We could go into town, see the sights. Or we could just lay on the beach all day." He said. He was hovering above me now, his face inches away from mine. "Or..." he murmured, running his fingers over my lips. "We could stay in bed."
"I think I'll go with..." I started, but Dylan cut me off by kissing me passionately. I wrapped my arms around him and tangled my fingers in his sandy blonde hair, and quickly forgot about the rest of the world.
~*Ellie*~
I slammed the cabinet door angrily, startling Hazel, Paige, and Spinner who were all sitting at the counter eating. Getting the eggs out of the refrigerator, I slammed that too. After a few more slams, Paige cleared her throat.
"Ellie, something wrong, hun?"
"No, I'm fine." I replied. "It's just....dammit is everyone else in this house having sex except me???"
Hazel sheepishly raised her hand. "Um, me."
Paige looked guilty. "Perhaps we should have invited Sean."
I glared at her. "Sean is not my boyfriend."
Spinner scoffed. "Sure he isn't, Ellie. Just like I'm not the most amazing lover in bed like....ever."
Now it was mine and Hazel's turn to scoff, and the second we looked at each other, we burst into uncontrollable laughter.
"What? I am!" Spinner replied.
"Thanks for cheering me up Spin." I said, walking out of the room, leaving Spinner grumbling to himself, and Hazel still laughing.
~*Bianca*~
"So tell me again why Paige didn't come with us? She lives for shopping." I asked as Hazel, Manny, Ashley and I walked around the busy town streets.
"Four words, Bianca. Headboard. Banging against bed." Manny replied.
"Hey, Ellie and I have the room right next to you and Craig, so don't act like the same sound effects weren't coming from your room last night." Hazel reminded her.
"Yeah, well, Bryce and I are next to Dylan and Marco, and you don't even wanna know what we heard coming out of there." Ashley said.
"Don't be so sure of that." Manny replied with a grin. "I wouldn't mind hearing."
"Or watching." Hazel added.
Ashley rolled her eyes. "You guys are sick."
"And anyway, Ash, full on pot meet kettle! I mean, you and Bryce were making some interesting sounds too, Craig and I are right across from you." Manny reminded her.
I rolled my eyes. "I think all of you guys are having a little too much fun."
