At the movie store+

Alex and Marissa were walking through the aisles hand in hand, trying to decide on what movie they should watch.

"So what kind of movie do you want to watch?" Alex said as she looked through the titles.

"Something scary, I feel bold tonight," Marissa said with a smile. Alex looked over at her girlfriend with a raised eyebrow.

"Bold eh?"

"Yep, that's what I said." Marissa smiled, and started to turn away until she felt Alex's hand tug at hers to bring her attention back to the blonde. Alex leaned in closely to Marissa's ear,

"Does your newfound boldness only concern the scary movie?"

"I don't know, there might be something else," Marissa replied.

"And what might that be," Alex asked. Marissa moved her head so that she her lips were slightly grazing against Alex's ear causing her to close her eyes.

"If you're a good girl, I'll show you," and with that Marissa smiled and went into another aisle, leaving Alex a little more than slightly turned on. After a few moments had passed, Alex turned around to find Marissa at the counter with their movie. Alex made her way to Marissa at the counter.

"So what did you choose?"

"It's a surprise," Marissa smiled.

"Um, OK,"

They were in Alex's car when Marissa's stomach started to grumble, "Hungry?" Alex asked with a slight giggle.

"Um, maybe," Marissa said with mild embarrassment.

"So I'm a little low on food right now, where would you like to go? Maybe the Crab Shack?"

"Sure," Marissa said with a smile as she leaned her head back on the headrest for the rest of the ride.

Crab Shack, the girls were seated and had just ordered their food. Alex thought that this would be a good time to bring up some questions that she had.

"Do mind if I ask you a question, Marissa?" she asked nervously.

"Sure," she could sense the anxiety in Alex's voice and became somewhat worried as well.

"Why did you break up with Ryan?" she blurted out, knowing that that little statement could have gone a little better.

Marissa frowned realizing that Alex still had issues with Ryan, but then soon smiled when she figured out what she was going to say, "Well, we were together, because it seemed to be comfortable, just to go back into a routine, you know? But then that lasted about a day, and I simply started to waste away being with him knowing that I was using all of my energy trying to convince myself that being with Ryan was the thing to do, but it just turned my world into darkness," Marissa paused and looked up at Alex who simply took her hand in her own silently urging her to go on, " And as much as I wanted to break up with him, I just couldn't I didn't know what to do, everyone around seemed to be normal, and thought that we were meant to be together, until I had had enough. My drinking got even worse and I started to isolate myself for days at time, and started to make myself sick at what I had become. The only peace I would have was when I would pass out from alcohol, or when I…" Marissa trailed off, not knowing if she should continue.

"When you what, Marissa?" Alex gently asked.

Marissa looked up with tears in her eyes. She looked straight through to those ocean blue eyes and said, "When I thought about you. The only nights that I would be able to fall asleep were when I dreamt about you. The only way that I could bare to kiss Ryan was when I closed my eyes and pretended that they were your lips pressed against mine, and that when my cell rang it was you calling to say that you love me, not him looking for me whenever he wanted. Then I couldn't take the pretending anymore, we got into a huge fight because of this and then I told him everything. I told him that I didn't love him and that I wasn't over you, and that I would never be over you," Marissa said the last line while looking directly into Alex's eyes.

Alex suddenly took her hand out of Marissa's grasp, making Marissa hold a face of disappointment at the loss of contact. She raised herself out of the booth and went straight over to Marissa's side and pulled her into a comforting and loving hug. Marissa smiled at the gesture and buried her head in Alex's shoulder inhaling the scent of her shampoo. After a minute Alex released Marissa and gazed into her eyes, "I'm sorry you had to go through all of that pain. But maybe I can help take it away," Alex tucked a stray strand of the brunette's hair behind her ear and gently cupped her chin and started to lean in then stopped, "Is this ok? I mean I bet there are people here who you know, I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable," Alex said as her voice started to crack.

Marissa smiled, 'She still thinks that I can't be public, and is willing to sacrifice her feelings for my comfort. I'm never letting her go. Ever.' She looked to Alex's confused filled eyes and leaned in capturing the blonde's lips in a kiss that started out lovingly, but soon escalated to both of their tongues competing for dominance. Alex let out a silent moan that only Marissa could hear. Marissa pulled away in need of oxygen. She laughed as she saw the look on Alex's face; she had her eyes still closed and her mouth was slightly open, until she realized that Marissa was sort of laughing.

"Good kiss, babe?" Marissa asked when Alex finally opened her eyes.

"Uh, huh. You didn't mind that people, uh, saw us," Alex asked.

"No, I want to be able to kiss you whenever I want to and wherever I want to, if that's ok with you,"

"That's perfect," Alex smiled and started to move out of the booth so that she could be facing Marissa.

"Hey, where do you think you're going?" Marissa said as she placed her hand on Alex's thigh keeping her in place.

"Nowhere," she replied as she scooted closer to the brunette's body.

"Good, because I want you to stay forever," Marissa said as she noticed their food coming. They ate in a comfortable silence with a few breaks for conversation.

After paying for the meal the girls decided to take a walk on the beach. The only light that present was the reflection of the stars on the waves as they slowly collapsed at the beach's shore. They walked hand in hand while stealing glances at each other, "Do you want to sit?" Alex asked when they stopped walking.

"Sure," the girls got settled on the warmth sand and simply looked out to see until Alex broke the silence.

"I really want to do something right now,"

"Ok, what is it?"

"Kiss you," Alex said as she turned her body to face Marissa's.

"I'm not stopping you," Marissa said when Alex's lips captured hers, this kiss wasn't as soft as the one in the Crab Shack but still held the same amount of intensity. Both girls pulled away in order to let their lungs work.

"Wow, I miss kissing you like th..." Alex started but was soon interrupted when she felt Marissa's lips crashing down on her own. She put her hands on each side of the girl's face deepening the kiss with her tongue. Marissa moaned and became bolder as she gently pushed the other girl onto her back on the sand and crept above the blonde's body. Their kisses were becoming feverish; they were kissing as if their lives depended on it. Alex kept her hold on Marissa's neck as she tangled her hands in her hair. Marissa's hand began to slowly move under Alex's Bright Eyes tank top waiting for the other girl to back away, but she didn't. Alex felt Marissa's hand inch up under her shirt and felt her mind spin. Her breathing quickened as she lost all coherent thoughts. Marissa's hand crept above Alex's pink bra and slowly began to massage what was underneath. Alex moaned at the contact and tried to pull Marissa even closer to her body; a piece of paper wouldn't be able to get between the making out girls. Marissa smiled when she heard the blonde moan, knowing that she was defiantly turning Alex on.

Marissa pulled away but stayed in the same position, "Is this okay?" she asked as her hand was still on Alex's breast.

"Ahhhhh," all Alex could do was moan in response. Marissa smiled and moved her other hand farther down Alex's body playing with the jeans' button, but not fully undoing it.

"Is this okay?" she asked, hoping that she wasn't overstepping any boundaries, they had just gotten back together but she couldn't control herself.

"Oh God yes," Alex moaned out. Marissa moved down to Alex's neck sucking it lightly then harder as she marked her, "Oh god riss," Alex moaned out as her eyes were closed. It seemed as if the only responses Marissa was receiving were in the form of a moan; she was becoming very turned on seeing Alex like this. She paid more attention to her hand which was at the top of Alex's jeans. As she slowly started to unbutton them and move the zipper her phone rang; stopping her completely. She slid back up Alex's body and gave her a chaste kiss and started to move beside Alex so that she could answer her phone. "Ignore it," Alex said.

"I can't, I'll be quick. I promise," she smiled at how flustered Alex was, and soon reached to her purse grabbing the phone from its restraints, "Hello?"

"Marissa! Where the hell have you been? Seriously you've been totally M.I.A. since the Bait Shop are you ok? Did you get kidnapped? I'm soo gonna kick some ass!" Summer yelled into the phone.

"Hello to you to Sum. I'm fine, not kidnapped," she looked over at Alex when she heard the girl giggle.

"Okay so where are you, I got a voice mail from Alex saying you were okay, but now what? What are you doing?" she asked.

"I'm fine, when I fell Alex took me to the hospital and waited for me all night," she smiled when she thought of how concerned Alex had been that night.

"Good, I knew I could trust her, but where have you been since then? I mean that was a couple of days ago,"

"Yeah well when we left we just went to her place and uh.." Alex moved over Marissa pushing the girl to the ground and started to suck on her neck.

"And what? OMG you guys had sex didn't you? OMG this is like seriously intense!" Summer yelled on the phone, while Marissa was trying to suppress her moans as Alex continued to suck on her neck and had her hand moving north of Marissa's top.

"No, no we didn't do that. We just hung out and watched a movie, then went surfing the next day. You know stuff like that," Marissa tried swatting Alex's hand away.

"Ok, so you're okay?"

"Yep, I'm fine, so I guess I'll uhhhhhhh," Alex's hand reached Marissa's left breast as her kisses moved to the girl's stomach.

"OMG are you two doing it while I'm on the phone! I'm happy that you're back together, but ew not while I'm present please!" Summer whined.

"No, but I got to go, bye Sum," Marissa closed her phone and grabbed Alex's head pulling her into a passionate kiss, "Ok, so not cool to be doing that whilst I talk on the phone," she said with a smile.

"Oh, you know you love it," Alex said with a grin.

"Definitely, but maybe we should continue this at your place instead outside on the beach eh?"

"I totally agree," Alex stood up brushing the sand off of her clothes and lending Marissa a hand to get out of the little mould that their bodies had made in the sand. They walked to Alex's jeep, both were becoming nervous and excited at the same time. 'If the beach was just the beginning I can't wait until later," they both thought to themselves as Alex drove to her apartment holding Marissa's hand while she drove, 'Yeah definitely can't wait.'
