RILEYS POV.

"Wes?"

"Oh my god..." Wes's jaw dropped as he looked at me from head to toe. I did the same to him. He was wearing khaki pants, hoodie and a snapback I got him for his 17th birthday.

I didn't hesitate to hug him, I jumped right into his arms and squeezed as hard as I could to make sure it was actually real; that Wes was actually here and with me.

"I've missed you so much Wesley."

"I know Riley, I know." His grip grew even tighter, I didn't think that was possible.

I could feel everyone's eyes on us and sense them all dancing. The noise seemed to keep getting louder and louder in my head as I held on to Wes.

"Maybe we should leave and take this someone a little more private..." He whispered in my ear and I agree. We need to talk, and having hundreds of people dancing and screaming isn't the best place.

"Can I meet you at the beach in half an hour?" I asked. He didn't say anything, he nodded then walked away. Just like that, he was gone.

I run back over to Tay,
"Tay! Wes came back a day early! I'm meeting him at the beach in half an hour, can you drive me, please." I begged her and her eyes went wide.

She grabbed my hand and we ran out of the house full of people and started running up the street to her car.

"DID HE TALK TO YOU? DID HE SAY ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP? DID YOU KISS HIM? ARE YOU GUYS A COUPLE AGAIN?"

"All he said was that he missed me and that he'll meet me at the beach."

"You still like him right?"

"Of course...I might even love him but I'm just scared he doesn't feel the same way, he's had 10 months to move on, he's probably had a girlfriend in Canada, he might even have one currently.."

"Riley that's crazy, he loved you. He probably still does."

"Maybe."

The rest of the ride was silent, Tay pulled up to the beach and there was still 5 minutes before Wes would get here.

"Thanks Tay."

"Text me once you're on your way home, if you're not back by 12 I'll tell your mom what happened and I'll cover for Talon."

"Thank you soooooo much, I'll see you soon." I was about to close the door but Taylor stopped me with her words,

"Oh and Ry...good luck."

I smile and close the door.

Walking around I found a spot to sit and took off my shoes and let the sand go in between my toes. The sun had already gone down so the sand was cold, but refreshing.

"Hey Ry." I turn around and see Wesley. Jumping to my feet, I give him another hug.

"You always did give the best hugs." He smiled and I started laughing. The beach was quite so my laugh echoed which caused the both of us to laugh more.

"So how have you been?" He asks as we start walking down the beach.

"Pretty good, I'm taking a gap year to think about College, what about you?"

"I'm taking a gap too, Keaton and I are staying at Drew's again."

"That's awesome!"

"It'll be like last Summer again."
