Then she says, "Loren Tate. Do you like him?" I look at her and frown, "Yeah I like him. As a friend, duh." She gives me a look, "Are you sure it's not more than that?" "I don't know. Could be if he was single but he's not." "Emily could dump him really soon.", she says. I frown, "I don't know about that. I think maybe Emily's serious with Eddie." My mom raises her eyebrows, "If that's the case it's probably only because she can use his popularity." "I don't know. Could be. I don't want her to hurt him."

Two days passed and I had a lot of homework to do so I didn't speak Eddie much. He hasn't come over a lot either because I think he also takes his study serious sometimes. Emily obviously hasn't been studying though. Right now I park my car in the parking lot at school. Then I walk to my locker. While I close my locker, Eddie walks up to me. "Hey Loren." I turn around to see him give me a smile, "Hey Eddie, haven't talked to you much lately." "I know. These days were crazy right?" "Yeah, I was crazy busy." "So that's why we're all going to the beach after school." "Who are we all?", I ask suspisciously with a frown on my face. "Me, Emily, mine and Emily's friends and anyone you want?" "I'll invite Melissa, Lily and Jennifer then." "Great. So first Emily and I are going by my home and then to her house. We'll take my car from there?" "We don't fit all in your car so I guess I'll go with Melissa, Jennifer and Lily." "Okay, see you later Loren Tate."

I walk out of my room in my red two piece bikini with a blue see through cover up over it and white flipflops. Emily walks out in a pink two piece bikini only covering her nipples and a little bit around it. Eddie's sitting on the couch in the living room waiting for us and Melissa and the girls are in the car. When we walk in Eddie gawks at us...or me? "So, shall we go?", I ask trying to get Eddie out of his trance. He scrapes his throat awkwardly and then stands up, "Ehm...yeah." I walk outside of the house and see a few cars parked in front of it. There's a black jeep with Tyler behind the wheel. Dylan and Phil are hanging out of the car trying to look cool. Adriana and Kim are in their bikinis sitting on the roof of the car trying to look sexy. They immediately wave at Emily while giggling. I sigh and then look at Melissa's car. My girls aren't rich so it's a simple not so expensive red bmw. The roof can be removed though so today it's off. Lily and Jennifer are sitting in the back and Melissa is behind the wheel. I walk to them and sit down next to Melissa. Eddie and Emily get into Tyler's car. It wouldn't fit if Adriana and Kim weren't sitting on the roof. We all drive to the beach and when arrive we get out while grabbing our stuff. Then we all walk onto the beach. Somewhere in the middle we lay our stuff down. I get out of my cover up and then suddenly turn around because of Tyler, "Loren Tate has a tattoo?!" Now that I have turned around they can't see my tattoo anymore so they walk to my backside and look at my tattoo just a little above my bikini bottom making me feel really uncomfortable. It's the word infinity. I shake off my flip flops and give Melissa a look telling her to get me out of the situation. "Come on girls, I'll race you to the water.", she says and then she immediately starts running giving her an advantage. We quickly run after her and jump into the sea. After a while when I'm doing a handstand in the water I suddenly feel somebody grabbing my legs. I get above the water again and see Eddie standing next to me. He smirks at me and then explains his actions, "It wasn't straight." I move my head closer to his and then say while smiling, "I don't care."

And then I pull back and let myself fall in the water. Eddie smiles and starts splashing me. That starts a battle between us and the others soon join us. After about 10 minutes we stop and everyone gets out of the water but me. After a while when I'm just drifting, somebody suddenly pushes me under water and tries to keep me there. I grab the wrist and twist it. I stand up and take a huge breath while twisting the arm until it's on the back of the person. Then I see that it's Emily but I just keep her arm on her back and she lets out a soft scream. "Never do that again.", I say angrily. She tries to struggle against my grip but I'm too strong for her. "Loren! Let me go!", she exclaims. I hold on for a few more seconds twisting it a bit further and then let go. Emily turns around. "Stay the hell away from Eddie!", she exclaims. I frown, "What the fuck are you talking about?!" She looks over her shoulder and sees the rest staring at us. "You know exactly what I'm talking about. Stay the hell away from him.", she hisses. And with that she walks back to the others. We stay for a little longer but I'm not really able to enjoy it. So I'm glad when I'm home. I immediately walk into my room. A little after, Eddie walks in. "Eddie. What are you doing here?", I ask. He shrugs, "Just wanted to see if you were okay." I shrug too, "I'm fine." He frowns and then asks after a few seconds of silence, "So, what was it all about?" "I have no idea. Something about staying away from you." "Oh.", he responds and then adds with a smile, "Well don't."

It's the next morning and I walk into the kitchen. I'm wearing a blue chiffon high low dress with a sparkling belt around the middle. I absolutely love this dress. It's my favorite``. My hair is styled, sparkling hoop earrings, my ankle bracelet and blue strappy heels. Yeah, I'm totally in love with this outfit. Emily is sitting at the kitchen table. She's wearing this hot pink dress. It splits on both her sides. The only reason it doesn't fall off is because it's stuck around Emily's neck. She has this belt around it but from her left or right you can still see her hot pink underwear. But she's wearing a string so you can see almost every part of her ass. "Loren, we're going on a double date tonight.", Emily simply states. "Ehm...no?", I answer with a frown. "Yes, come on Lo. I'm going on a date with Eddie but one of his friends wanted to come. So if you don't come it won't be like a date.", she begs me. It's not like her to beg me. "I don't feel like it.", I respond. "You want me to be nice to you when you don't act nice to me?", she then tries to manipulate me. And it works. I sigh, "Fine, I'll do it. Who is this friend?" She smiles mischievously, "You'll see tonight." I grab some breakfast and then get into my black bugatti. While driving to school I think about this stupid date idea. I wonder what the real reason that Emily wants me to go on this is. Emily isn't shy so she would just tell Eddie's friend to fuck off. But instead she asks me to come? It's a little weird. Well, Eddie will be there so that makes it a bit better.

It's break and I sit down with my friends. But after a while Eddie comes sit with us. "Eddie, what are you doing here? , I ask confused. "Yeah, shouldn't you be with the she-devil?", Melissa says with a grin. Eddie doesn't seem to care, "I'll go to Emily in a minute. Loren, what do you think about this whole double-date idea?" "I think it's weird. I don't understand why Emily would want me to go. Do you know who my date will be?" "No, Emily hasn't told me anything. But you are going then?" I sigh, "I'm afraid I have to." He chuckles, "Don't worry, it will be fine. Well, I have to go now. I'll see you tonight." "Yeah, bye.", I respond. Melissa nudges me, "Soooo, you and Eddie have gotten really close." I shrug, "Yeah, I guess we're good friends now." "Right..."friends".", Jennifer responds with raised eyebrows. I give her a look, "Yes friends Jennifer. Gosh, you sound like my mom." "So we're not the only ones that think there's something more.", Lily says with a grin. "Well, there isn't.", I say, giving her a look too.

I didn't really have to change because the clothes I am wearing are good enough for a date. I just fixed my blue shadow-eye make-up a little bit. Emily is still changing when Eddie walks into the kitchen. "Hey Eddie, where's your friend?", I ask. "He's waiting in the car.", he says. Then simply states, "You look hot." I look down to the floor when I anwer, "I have been looking like this all day." I look up again and see one of the corners of his mouth twitch up into a smirk, "Yeah but I didn't really have the chance to say that you look totally hot." That's when Emily walks in in her clothes from today but with even more make-up. "Shall we go?", she asks as she grabs Eddie's arm, pushing her breasts against his arm. I turn my attention away from it, "Where are we even going?" "We're going to have dinner at this expensive restaurant.", she answers like it's the most normal thing to have an expensive dinner for no paticular reason. We walk outside and leaning against the car is Emily's friend Dylan. Gosh, I don't like him. I should have known someone like that was going to be my date. Why did I even agree to do this? I shoot Eddie a look and he chuckles cause he totally understands.

We're in the restaurant and we just ordered. "So Loren, you can dance.", Dylan states giving me his coolest look. At least it's supposed to be his coolest look. I personally think that it looks absolutely ridiculous. I give him a fake smile, "I guess I can." From the corner of my eye I can see how Emily pulls Eddie into a kiss. That means I'm forced to talk to Dylan since there's no one else to talk to now. "Well, it looked totally hot.", Dylan answers still trying to impress me with his 'coolness?' I frown, "Thanks I guess." We sit there in silence for about half a minute until Eddie pulls back from kissing Emily. "So Loren, where did you learn to dance like that?" "I used to have this friend and her mom was a dancer so her mom used to give us both lessons.", I explain. "What happened to your friend?" "She moved away about a year ago." "Do you guys still have contact?" I smile, "Yeah." Emily gives me this totally fake smile, "That is just great Loren." Then she immediately starts to talk to Eddie about shopping. She just keeps going on and on about it. She mainly talks to Eddie so Eddie shoots me a helpless look once in a while making me chuckle. "So Loren, ever had sex on a first date.", Dylan asks while smirking. He smirks differently than Eddie. When Dylan smirks, it's because he's convinced that he's cool and hot and that every girl is totally in to him. When Eddie smirks, it's either to tease you or because he's amused by something. Then there's it that when Dylan smirks, it looks just smug. When Eddie smirks, it makes him so sexy that my knees become weak. But that's actually really unconvenient. Because I can't think about his smirk or him like that. I don't even know if I do think about him like that. The only thing I know is that I'm physically attracted to him and who wouldn't? But I can't even be that because he's dating my twin sister. "No. And I'm not really planning to either.", I answer to Dylan, totally grossed out by him even suggesting to have sex. The smirk remains on his face though when he responses, "That's okay. You shouldn't plan those things." I frown at him, "Great to know." And that's when Dylan starts a conversation with me about sex. It's totally grossing me out to hear about his experiences with sex. By now Eddie and I are both sending each other helpless looks and then we both chuckle. "So yeah, that's when I knew those shoes were just meant for me.", Emily says. Eddie doesn't notice." "Eddie?!", Emily says with a frown on her face. Eddie turns her head back to her, "Ehm yeah...that's great babe. So babe, do you also have a tattoo like Loren?", Eddie tries to change the conversation. Emily makes a disgusted face, "Ew, no, gross." "When did you get yours Loren?", Eddie asks focusing his attention to me. "Ehm, about two years ago. I got it together with that friend I told you about." "That's cool." "Yeah.", I say. Then I chuckle and add, "Can't say my mom thought the same about it." Eddie now chuckles too, "Ha, no. Probably not."

I stand up while saying that I need to go to the toilet. I walk away in the direction of the ladies room. But when I reach the hallway someone pushes me with my back against the wall.
