CenaCandiceFan4Life- Thank you for the review!
Jeff POV
I was kind of excited to hang out with Merci today; school went by fast. I was glad, because I was in trouble for fighting with Randy again. He didn't know how to be anything, but an asshole. I got home, changed, and went over to Merci's.
"Hi Jeff." Her mom said and let me inside.
"Hi, is Merci better today?" I asked her and she nodded.
"Yep, she is already outside." She said.
"Thanks." I said and got ready to turn around to leave.
"Jeff?" her mom said and I turned to look at her.
"I know that you have feelings for her still, but I don't want you to date her. I heard the two of you outside; she doesn't need any more problems like that." She said and I nodded.
"I know and I was the one who stepped away, because I know that I have an anger problem and I don't want to hurt her." I said and she smiled.
"You are still welcome over here all the time." She said and hugged me.
"Thank you." I said and walked outside. I was a little sad because her mom knew about me, but it was true, Merci deserved someone better than me. I walked in the back and she was sitting outside reading a book.
"Hey." She said and hugged me.
"Hey, ready to get in the water?" I asked her and she nodded. I reached down, scooped her into my arms, and carried her to where Matt, Shannon, Kelly, Gail, and a few others were already out there. I knew that Dave, Paul, John, Tara, and Eric were coming later. Mickie couldn't make it because she had to work tonight; she had gotten a job at the movie theater that her dad owned. Phil was also working, plus I didn't really want to deal with him right now.
"Hey, when you coming back to school?" Gail asked her as I put her down in the surf. She was still holding onto me.
"Next week; mom wants most of my bruises to heal." She said.
"Matty!" she hugged him when he walked up.
"Hey girlie." He said and hugged her back.
"Thanks for the flowers you two." She said and hugged us bother.
"Welcome." Matt said.
We all waded in the surf and Merci floated out on a surfboard with me. I was just glad that she was able to do stuff.
"You feeling better today?" I asked her and she nodded.
"Thanks for getting me out." She said and I smiled at her.
"You're mom talked to me today… she heard us the other day… she doesn't want me to date you." I said and she sighed.
"I'm sorry that she heard us." She said and I shook my head.
"I'm not, it keeps me from hurting something important in my life." I said and she smiled at me.
"Thanks, Jeffy." She said and kissed my cheek.
Merci sat on the surfboard with me while everyone else is was surfing and swimming. They all talked to her and she seemed comfortable.
"I'm hungry." Shannon wined and we all went back to the beach; we were going to grill foods.
Merci POV
I was sitting on the beach next to the grill while Matt was grilling. Kelly, Gail, and Tara were sitting near me.
"Hey, I heard a rumor." Tara said and I looked at her. Kelly and Gail were talking so I wasn't too worried about them hearing what she was going to say.
"What?" I asked her.
"Dave likes you…" she said and I looked at her strange.
"How did you hear that?" I asked her.
"John and Dave go to my school… they were talking one day when I walked up to them at lunch." She said and I nodded.
"Wonderful." I said and Tara looked at me strange.
"I don't care about dating right now." I said.
"Yeah, I heard about Jeff freaking when he saw you and Phil kissing…" she was saying when Shannon walked past so she stopped talking.
"Let me guess… Dave told you?" I asked her and she nodded… I just sighed.
"Drama should be the new name of this island." I said and she laughed at me.
"Hey, it's nice to be wanted." She said and I nodded.
I talked to Tara until the food was done. I was eating whatever Jeff gave me; I was tired of sitting and I was starting to hurt.
"I need to lay down." I told Tara and she helped me stand up.
I hugged everyone and started towards my house. I almost got there when I had a pain shoot through my side. I was close to falling over when I felt a strong arm wrap around me and my feet be lifted off the sand.
"Nice try." Dave said and I smiled at him.
"Come on." He said and effortlessly carried me into the house.
"Are you alright?" my mom asked me and I was going to say something.
"She is hurting." Dave said and I nodded.
"Can you walk?" my mom asked me.
"I can carry her, where do you want me to put her?" he asked my mom.
"Her room." Mom said and smiled at me; I knew that she liked Dave.
Dave POV
I carried Merci to her room and she just held onto me; she fit perfectly into my arms.
"Thank you." she said as I carefully sat her on her bed and she started to get up.
"I just put you there." I said and she laughed.
"Yes, but I need to change." She said and I helped her to the bathroom.
"I will wait and help you to your room." I said.
"You don't have to." She said and her mom appeared.
"Here, Merci, I rented you this movie." Her mom said and gave it to her.
"Thanks." She told her mom and her mom smiled at me.
"Why don't you stay Dave and watch it with Merci?" her mom suggested and I looked at Merci, just smiled at me and nodded.
"Sure." I said and smiled at Merci.
She took a shower and I helped her back to her room. We both sat on her bed and were watching Surrogates. I was glad that I had helped her and stayed; I knew that Jeff and Phil would probably be jealous right now, but I didn't care. I was happy sitting here with her.
"Are you bored?" she asked me and I shook my head no.
"Good, I'm glad you stayed." She said and I smiled at her.
I stayed until after the movie and left once she fell asleep.
I got home and Kelly was smiling at me.
"What?" I asked her.
"You like Merci." She said and I looked at her.
"Maybe." I said and tried to walk past her.
"No, you really like her." She said and I sighed.
"Even if I did… what's your point?" I asked her.
"Get ready to compete with Phil." She said I nodded; I knew that she was right.
