***********************************************************************TWIGGIE*******
A New Start (Reggie's POV)
"I said no and that's finale." Raymundo told me after I asked again if Twister could spend the night. He never had a problem with Twister staying over before but now that we're dating he's rarely allowed. Even Otto had trouble convincing him to allow it and he's his best friend.
"Come on dad it's Twister!" I protested, trying to get him to change his mind.
"Is that supposed to reassure me? He's still a boy Reggie!" He replied crossing his arms.
"Dad, please! Tomorrow I'm going off to college and I won't see him again until I'm off at Thanksgiving. That's almost five months apart!" I reminded him getting down on my knees and begging. "Please, please, please!" He looked down at me and dropped his arms to his side.
"Fine." He finally gave up. I scrambled up to hug him and say thank you when he stopped me. "But, you stay in the living room, he sleeps on the floor and you sleep on the couch. And his parents have to be okay with it as well." He ordered.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" I shouted pulling my dad into a tight hug. "I'm gonna go let him in." I grinned running to the door.
"He's already here?" Ray asked surprised.
"Yeah we talked his parents into it first before coming over here." I told him and then opened the door to let Twister in.
"He said yes." I said as soon as I saw him.
"Really?" Twister asked shocked pulling me into a hug and twirling me on the porch.
"Don't make me regret this!" My dad shouted on his way up the stairs.
A Dream, a Wish Your Heart Makes? (Reggie's POV)
He came over to study. We were upstairs in my room with books spread out around my bed unopened. He leaned down to kiss me, one hand steadying himself above me, the other slipped under my shirt creeping its way up to my chest. He slipped his tongue inside my mouth, making me moan ecstatically. I had my hands dug into his back making sure he wasn't going anywhere. "Oh Twister." I sighed into his mouth.-
"Twister!" I shouted sitting up on the couch, waking up. Twister?I was dreaming about Twister? I had an intimate dream about my brother's best friend Twister? Panicked, I looked around the room to make sure nobody heard my outburst.
"Mommy?" Twist mumbled rolling over on his stomach, still asleep. I sighed and leaned back on the couch happy he didn't wake up.
"Did you have a good dream?" My eyes shot opened when Otto asked. He was leaning over me with a huge smile on his face. "Oh Twister kiss me!" He said in a girly voice, mocking me, laughing at me as he went to lay back down in his sleeping bag.
"What's going on?" Sam mumbled groggily.
"Nothing, go back to bed." I groaned. Sam rolled his eyes but did it anyway and passed back out a minute later. I knew I'd get blackmailed from Otto for life, just like I knew I wasn't going to be sleeping any time soon.
Why Her? (Twister's POV)(WARNING! Kind of dark, mention of death, drinking, and sex)
(A/N: I wanted to do something other than a mushy story so I hope nobody gets upset with this one.)
We had just gotten back from the funeral and went to the Shore Shack where Ray was hosting the memorial for Trish. Otto, Sam, Sherry, and I were sitting at a table when Reggie came out of the back room Tipsy. Otto was a mess and could barely take care of himself after learning that his girlfriend was hit by a drunk driver so when he stood up to get Reggie I persuaded him to let me take care of her. After all she was my girlfriend, just as much my responsibility as his.
"Reggie, have you been drinking?" I asked her surprised leaning in to smell her breath. She took it as an advance and leaned in to kiss me.
"Maybe a little bit. Let's go have sex." She giggled pulling me back into the room she just exited. Wasting no time at all she slipped her hands under my shirt and tried peeling it off before I stopped her.
"I don't want to rush this." I pulled away from her placing my hands on her shoulders to keep her a good distance away.
"Since when?" She snorted unconvinced. "You've practically begged me to sleep with you since the day we got together." She pointed out trying to fight against me.
"Reggie, you're drunk." I tried reasoning with her. She may have been right, I had wanted to sleep with her for a while now but not like this. Never like this. Not when she wasn't herself and fully aware of her decisions.
"Come on baby I know you want to." She whispered seductively in my ear before sucking on my earlobe.
"Reggie, I know you're scared after what happened to Trish but I can't do this. I won't take advantage of you." I promised her, restraining her once more.
"Who said anything about taking advantage of me? I'm the one who suggested it!" She shouted trying to pull away.
"Come on Reg, let me take you home." I offered steering her towards the door.
"I don't want to go home!" She screamed fighting hard to get away. I fought back just as hard, trying not to hurt her. I pulled her against my chest and held her tight as she punched at my sides, trying her best to get away until finally she gave up and stopped fighting and wrapped her arms around me.
"Why her, why did he have to hit her?" She sobbed into my shoulder.
"I don't know, I just, I don't know." I told her trying my best to comfort her by rubbing her back. Things were never going to be the same in Ocean Shores now. Someday we'd move on, but we'd never forget.
Coming to Terms (Otto's POV)
"Man this sucks! Reggie gets her own room while we all have to share this tiny one!" I complained. Ray and Tito were asleep in the two beds while the three of us all got sleeping bags on the floor. Twister had no problem falling asleep, he never did. He was smiling about some dream of his and snoring.
"I bet Twister wouldn't mind sharing a room with Reggie." Sam teased, noticing Twister's smile as well.
"What you say Squid?" I asked getting angry.
"Nothing." He gulped hiding under his covers.
"I can't believe he's dating her." I groaned staring at my best friend, thinking of ways I could, but wouldn't, hurt him. Unless of course he hurt Reggie.
"Really? I always thought he was kind of smitten with her." Sam shrugged, poking his head out.
"He's supposed to be my best bro and he's dating my sister." I whined still not okay with the two of them. I didn't even want to know what took him so long to get back here after walking Reggie to her room or what he was dreaming about that made him so happy. The thought of the two of them together grossed me out.
"Aren't you happy for them though? It's your best bro and your sister!" Sam replied trying to make it sound better than it was.
"Whatever man, it's still sick!" I groaned rolling over onto my side. No matter how you said it, it was my best friend and my sister, it was wrong.
(Twister's dream)
'Mm a sandwich as big as the skating rink'
Fixing Mistakes (Twister's POV)
"Are you okay?" Otto asked concerned, coming into our room to check on me after Reggie just threw away my heart, stomped on it, and kicked it in the gutter. We were all in college now so I thought things would finally be different for us, better, and she goes and does this.
"What?" I asked coming back into reality. "I'm fine man." I lied.
"Dude, you're my best bro, I know when you're lying to me." He pointed out resting a hand on my shoulder.
"I just didn't expect this." I opened up to him, dropping my head into my hands.
"Me neither, I thought you guys would last forever." He told me, patting my back. "I know that sounds cheesy but I did." He added.
"I just don't understand why would she do this?" I asked standing up and pacing my room.
"Do you want me to find out if there's another guy?" He asked getting my attention.
"There's another guy!" I shouted panicked.
"Sorry man I shouldn't have brought it up, I don't know!" He replied trying to relax me.
"Who calls their boyfriend of two years, two years, and breaks up with them over the phone? I thought I meant more to her then that!" I yelled upset. My hands balled up into fists and before I knew what was happening I punched the wall beside me. "Ow!" I shrieked in pain.
"Well what you do that for?" Otto shouted coming over to check on me. My hand was bruising and turning purple so I knew I broke it. "Man I'm gonna have to take you to the hospital!" He added frustrated. On our way to the car Otto's phone rang.
"Who is it?" I asked. By the look on his face I assumed it was his sister, the heart breaker.
"Give me one second." He told me before answering the phone. "Reg, I'll have to call you back later. I have to take Twister to the hospital now." He told her. There was a pause in the conversation obviously her talking back. 'Why bother with the hospital, just let him die in the gutter with his heart.' I imagined her saying. "It's nothing I'll tell you about it later I have to go." He told her before hanging up. At the risk of sounding like a jealous ex-boyfriend I decided not to say anything about their phone call and opted for silence. We didn't talk on the ride to the hospital, we didn't talk while we waited for a doctor to see me, and we didn't talk when one finally did. I did end up breaking my hand so I got a cast and pain pills which I popped right away.
"I love you man." I told him on the ride home. I was feeling woozy which meant the pills were working which was a good thing. When we got home someone was sitting on the floor outside our apartment leaning against our door. They popped up when they saw us. I could barely keep my eyes open but I could have sworn I saw violet hair. Then I knew the pills were working because why would she be here, she didn't care about me anymore. I heard Otto say he was going to stay at Trish's because he needed some space, no, to give us space. He'd be back in the morning. I went and fell into bed, falling asleep quickly. Not, however, before I heard Reggie say she was sorry, maybe I was asleep already and dreaming that, I must have been.
I woke up and it was dark. I went to scratch my head and ended up hitting myself with what I thought was a club but realized was just my cast which suddenly hurt. I got up to get a glass of water and take another pill put ended up stumbling over the mess on the floor.
"Ow!" I screamed for the second time that day after stubbing my toe. Otto shot up in bed, no doubt because I woke him. "Sorry man I hit my toe go back to sleep." I told him. Only he didn't listen and instead turned on the lights. That's when I realized it was Reggie in Otto's bed not Otto. "What are you doing here?" I asked surprised.
"I came over as soon as I hung up with Otto. All he said was he was taking you to the hospital, I was worried about you." She replied getting out of bed.
"Why should you be worried about me, you aren't my girlfriend anymore remember?" I rubbed it in, knowing it would hurt her.
"Twist, I still care about you. I always will." She barely whispered unable to look at me.
"Why'd you do it?" I asked, turning on her, needing to know the answer.
"Excuse me?" She questioned unsure of what I meant.
"Why'd you break up with me. Is there another guy?" I asked her, not sure if I'd be able to handle the answer.
"Of course not!" She shouted offended.
"Then why?" I asked again.
"Twist, you're only 19. I'm the only girl you kissed, dated, and slept with. You're in college you should be living the dream, sleeping with a different girl every night, going to parties, meeting new people. I'm holding you back." She informed me looking at everything in the room but me.
"Who said I wanted any of that?" I asked her angry all over again.
"You may not now but I don't ever want you to look back with all these what ifs." She replied.
"Do you? Is that why you think I would?" I asked her shaking now.
"No! Twister I love you, I don't regret a moment I spent with you." She assured me holding my arms to steady me.
"Reggie, I want to be with you and only you." I told her. Looking down at her face I realized she was crying. I took my thumb to wipe away the tears.
"I'm so stupid!" She cried hitting herself in the head. "I'm sorry Twister, for all of this." She told me pulling my broken hand up to her mouth to kiss it. "Forgive me?" She asked.
"Just promise me you won't ever leave me again." I told her.
"I promise." She swore, leaning up to kiss me. My forehead, my cheek, my lips, anywhere she could.
"I love you." I told her glad to be kissing her again.
"I love you too." She smiled up at me. I dragged her back to my bed where she cuddled up against me and we both fell back asleep.
One of a Kind (Twister's POV)
Here we go again, pretending were just friends. The four of us at the beach and you won't even look at me.
Reggie mounted her board and rode the wave like a pro. I filmed her all the way through until she finished and jumped into the water on her own.
"Twist, man, hello!" Otto shouted at me waving a hand in front of my face. "Dude you were totally checking my sister out!" He laughed hysterically.
"What, no I wasn't!" I lied almost dropping my camera as I turned to look away from Reggie.
"Man admit it, you so like her!" Otto continued to laugh.
"I do not!" I shot back, sure that my face was tomato red.
"Sammy what do you think?" Otto asked our blonde friend.
"Um, do I have to be the tie breaker?" He asked timidly. "Oh look Reggie's back." He smiled nervously.
"What I miss?" She questioned looking between the three of us, waiting for an answer.
"Nothing." I jumped in before Otto could open his big mouth.
"Sure Maurice, it's nothing." He laughed before going to catch the next wave.
"I'm gonna sit this one out." Sam informed us, slowly paddling back to the beach. "Over there." He added gaining speed to get as far away as possible.
"What's going on?" Reggie asked me, the only one left.
"Argh!" I moaned slapping my forehead.
"Twist what's wrong?" She asked paddling over to me. We were side by side now, our legs practically touching. She reached out and put a hand on my knee. "Twist?" She tried encouraging me to talk.
"I might as well tell you before Otto does." I told her taking a deep breath before continuing. "This is so embarrassing!" I whined unable to look at her and tell her how I feel.
"Twist, what is it? You can tell me anything." She assured me grabbing my hand and yanking me so I would look at her.
"I like you okay!" I shouted a little too loud making the surfers beside us glance our way.
"Oh." She blushed, dropping my hand right away.
"Man now things are weird between us!" I complained, dropping to lay on my surf board continuously hitting my head against it.
"Twister, would you stop that?" She asked getting my attention. I looked up to see her smiling down at me, laughing.
"You think this is funny?" I asked her miserable. She was laughing at me, laughing!
"No, no of course not!" She replied still shaking with laughter. "Well maybe a little." She admitted. I groaned and started hitting my head again. "Twist will you please stop hitting your head?" She begged again.
"Why should I? I told you I liked you and you laughed at me!" I protested continuing to hit my head.
"Twister I'm only laughing because, well because it's about time!" She grinned splashing water in my face.
"About time for what?" I asked confused.
"That you finally admitted you liked me! I was starting to worry Sammy was wrong and I was wasting my time trying to get your attention." She laughed.
"What do you mean trying to get my attention?" I asked finally sitting up.
"Last week, when I wore a skirt, it wasn't because I ran out of clean clothes. I was trying to get you to look at me as a girl instead of one of the guys." She admitted tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
"But that's why I like you, because you're one of the guys!" I shouted again catching stranger's attention.
"I mean, obviously you're a girl, but you aren't one of those annoying Barbie dolls Otto dates. That's what I like about you." I told her honestly, quitter this time.
"Really?" She blushed, looking down at her board.
"Reggie Rocket, you're one of a kind." I replied smiling at her. She smiled back and reached out for my hands pulling me closer to her. It wasn't until she closed her eyes that I realized what she was doing. I closed mine too and leaned in for my first kiss… and fell into the water. She laughed at me until I pulled her off her board into the ocean with me. She wrapped her arms around my neck and caught my eyes.
"I like you too Maurice." She teased pulling me against her for a kiss. Our first, but definitely far from our last.
Truth or Dare (Reggie's POV)
Sherry and Trish, and Twister and Sam came over to spend the night. We all moved to the living room when Raymundo fell asleep and decided to play a game of truth or dare, my brother's idea.
"Popcorns done." Otto told us, finally joining everyone in the living to get the game started. He set the bowl in the middle of the circle and everyone dug in.
"Who goes first?" Sam asked unsure how the game worked.
"Why don't you start?" Sherry suggested making him blush red.
"Okay, Twister, Truth or dare?" Sam asked.
"Dare!" Twister replied excitedly.
"Um, I dare you to stuff as much popcorn in your mouth as you can." Sam dared him. Twister did as he was told and started shoveling popcorn in his mouth until he couldn't fit another kernel in.
"Done!" He mumbled as some food fell out of his mouth. He swallowed the rest of it before turning to Otto and asking him.
"Dare duh." Otto grinned.
"I dare you to lick Trish's arm elbow to hand." Twister laughed when Trish scrunched up her nose. Otto did as he was told and then turned to Sherry and to ask her.
"Truth, I don't want to lick anything or anyone." She shuddered.
"Alright, is it true that you've never had a crush on someone in this room?" Otto asked her making her blush darker than Sam ever has.
"No." Sherry replied squeezing her eyes shut embarrassed.
"I knew it!" Otto laughed holding his stomach.
"Whatever! Reggie, truth or dare?" She asked me changing the subject.
"Dare." I replied biting my lip nervously.
"I dare you to switch shirts with Twister until it's your turn again." Sherry smiled. She knew I had a crush on him and this was punishment for me laughing at her for admitting she had a crush on someone here, which me and Trish both knew was Sam.
"Come on Twist." I told him going into the kitchen, not willing to undress in front of my brother.
"How is this fair for me?" Twister complained, following me anyways. I took off my shirt and held it out for him.
"Ah!" He screamed quickly turning around before taking his off and reaching out for mine.
"You know you've seen me in less." I pointed out, referring to when we go to the beach as I shrugged into his T-shirt. He just blushed and slipped mine on.
"How do I look?" He asked ignoring my earlier comment. His shirt practically went down to my knees, where my purple tank top was way too tight for him. What you couldn't already see you could imagine perfectly. It took every ounce of control I had not to reach out and stroke his abs.
"What do you think?" Twister asked the group when we walked back in. Otto whistled at him as Trish slipped a dollar into his belt.
"Nice look Twister." Sherry laughed. "Your turn Reggie." She smiled at me faking it.
"I guess that leaves you Trish." I said turning to look at her.
"I know I'm going to regret this but dare." Trish replied.
"I dare you to lick Otto's leg ankle to knee as payback for him licking your arm." I grinned happy with my dare.
"Gross! His leg is so hairy!" She shuddered. Otto couldn't stop laughing uncontrollably as he stretched his leg out in front of Trish. She licked it and then spent the next few minutes whipping her tongue on her hand and eating popcorn to get rid of the taste.
"Okay Twister truth or dare." Trish turned to him to ask.
"Truth." He swallowed nervously afraid by the look Trish was giving him.
"If you had to kiss someone in this room, who would it be?" She asked, making me hold my breath for the answer.
"Um," He started, rubbing his neck. "Reggie." He replied looking up at me, then the floor, then back at me, then to the floor again. I blushed and smiled happily relaxing back against the couch. He chose me. Twister wants to kiss me.
"Dude!" Otto complained punching Twister in the shoulder breaking my train of thought.
"Oh cut it out. You're just jealous he didn't pick you." I joked knowing that would set him off.
"As if, I'd want to kiss Trish!" He shouted before realizing what he was doing. Trish, who was starting to look bored, perked up at this before reaching across the bowl of popcorn to kiss him.
"Oh yay, it's become one of those parties." Sam said shrinking off to a corner.
"So if we're done playing can I have my shirt back?" Twister asked me, coming up to my side and startling me. I was so shocked by Trish I didn't even notice him move.
"What?" I asked, turning away from the lip locking pair.
"My shirt, can I have it back?" He asked again.
"Oh, right." I replied. Only instead of doing just that I copied Trish and her confidence and leaned up to kiss the guy I wanted to.
"Or we could make out like them." He said afterwards before pulling me back into his embrace.
"So, it's just us." Sherry told Sam meeting him in his hiding spot.
"Oh what the heck." Sam replied before leaning in to kiss her as well.

I admit the last one with them all ending up kissing the one's they like was probably stretching it but I couldn't resist myself and thought it be a cute ending. Please review and I'll add more.
