Robbie's POV

She just ran. It's the CowWow all over again… She was fine with it before. What happened? I'm in love with a girl I can't have now…

"Damn it!" I say throwing a book at the wall. I hear someone turn over in bed. I just want to scream.

Cat's POV

I just ran! Why am I running! I'm in love with Robbie, I got what I wanted, we kisses—no we made out, everything good happened but I ran! I just can't do this…

So many thoughts were running around in my mind. Ahhh! Why!? I have to go back and apologies. I turn around and head back to the house.

Robbie's POV

I just have to forget about her. Just find another girl. You're in Florida, Robbie; there are tons of hot girls. Plus I can flirt… kind of.

I'll just find someone else. I can get Cat to help too, so she thinks I've moved on. I just need to sleep this off. I'll be fine in the morning.

I lie down on my bed and try to close my eyes. All that pops up are pictures of Cat. The things we did when we were just friends…. Finally my chest falls and I breathe slowly as I fall asleep to the images of me and Cat.

Cat's POV

When I walked towards his room I could see he was asleep. I was too tired to shower, I just needed to sleep. I'll talk to him in the morning. I lie down on my bed and fall asleep.

The sun was high by the time I got up. I was exhausted. I get changed and walk down the stairs. Everyone was in the living rooms sitting on the couches talking.

"Finally, you're up!" Tori says. I smile and get a cup of coffee. "Ok, so do you guys want to go down to the bond fire tonight?"

I look over at Robbie who is smiling. How could he be smiling! After last night! I guess I should apologize now.

I mouth out the words, "I'm sorry," in his direction. He nods and continues his conversation. Ugg this is pissing me off! Why isn't he upset…? I mean it's good that he isn't devastated, but doesn't it bother him! Did I mean nothing!

We all go to the bond fire tonight. The glow of the fire was turning everything a fiery yellow. There was beer on the other side of the fire but I didn't feel like drinking. I sat down near the fire and pulled on my sweatshirt. I pulled my knees up and hugged them. Watching everyone else have fun was depressing so I stared into the fire. The flames bounced up and down, changing color.

Someone turned on the music and the speaker was right next to me. The noise gives me a head ache so I get up and decide to go for a walk. I walk down to the water and walk along the shore line. The water comes up to my feet a couple times. It was warm for being night.

I could hear the music in the distance. Nobody knew I was gone… I continue my walk for a little bit and sit in the sand farther up the beach. The water rolls up and down the shore. I turn to look around and see this figure walking towards me.

About a minute later a man sits next to me. He was about 18 maybe 19. He had a good looking face with light brown hair. He had a high and tight cut, like the marines. He had small short cut facial hair. It went down his cheeks to his chin and up around hit mouth. It was attractive because it wasn't too much. His eyes were an ice blue and he had tan skin. We both sat in silence for a little bit. I liked it how he didn't interrupt me, he didn't introduce himself because he realized I didn't want to talk. There was something about him…

"So, do you usually sit with random people and not make conversation?" I smile at him.

He chuckles, "No. You looked like you didn't want to talk. But you also looked like you needed someone here. Guy troubles?" He smiles back at me.

"Yes." I laugh, "Is it that obvious…?" I ask. He nods.

We sit and stare at the water again for a little bit.

"I'm Cat, by the way." I say.

"I'm Austin. It's nice to meet you." He says wrapping his arms around his knees.

"Yea, yea it is." I say flirtatiously. He laughs. There was just something about him… something I really liked. He was handsome—no hot, his eyes were amazing, He was sweet and funny, and he knew when to leave me alone. Not many guys know that.

"So, is it too soon to ask you on a date? Coffee Friday?" He asks. A charming smile forms on his face.

"I guess not… Friday, that sounds amazing!" I smile back. He takes my hand and looks me in the eyes.

"It's a date then." We continue to talk for hours sitting on the beach. He drives me back to the house and then gives me his number. Before I get out of the car, he stops me and takes my hand again. He pulls it up towards his lips. He kisses my hand softly and says, "Friday then!" I get out of his car and walk up to the door with a smile on my face. I walk in to find Jade and Tori sitting on the couch watching TV.

"So, where were you?" Jade asks turning around on the couch. I walk over and sit with her.

"I got bored so I went for a walk…" Tori looks at me and smile.

"Why are you so happy then? Tori asks.

"You know, it's been a good day. Anyone want some hot chocolate?" I ask quickly changing the subject. I get up but Jade grabs my arm and pulls me back down.

"Spill. Now." She says sternly. Tori laughs and nods.

"Ok… So I was walking and got tired so I sat. And it was really quiet… Then this guy comes and sits next to me. He just sat there silently until I said something. It was like he knew I didn't want to be bothered, but I wanted someone there. Do you understand?" I asked them. Jade got this smile on her face and so did Tori.

"Continue." Tori said.

"Well I eventually said, 'So, do you usually sit with random people and not make conversation?' and he laughed. We kind of flirted for a couple hours. We talked and sat there. Then he aked me if it was too soon to ask me on a date. He asked if I wanted to go to coffee on Friday!" I explained.

"He was cute right?" Jade asks.

"He was way more than cute. This man was HOT!" I laugh, but it was true. "I mean how many hot, sweet, funny, smart guys are out there… NONE! At least that's what I thought."

"So you're going Friday right?" Tori adds.

"Yes, of course. I really like him… I know it's only been a couple of hours but there was something about him, that just… I don't know, caught my attention."

Jade smiles at me again. It was true; I really, really did like him.

Robbie's POV

I sit on the stairs listening to Cat tell the girls about this guy Austin. How hot he was, what he looked like, how sweet and funny he was. She just moved on… just like that… Was he really better than me? I'm in love with her! And I could have sworn she loved me…
