ADDISON'S POV

Jacob and I talked on the beach for a while longer before we decided to head back around 11:30. When we got back to the hotel we grabbed our bags and headed inside, and Jacob being the gentleman he is he walked me to my room. Once I got my key out he took my free hand and pulled me into him. He held me against his chest and wrapped his arms tightly around my waist. "I had a great time tonight Addi." He mumbled into my hair. "Me too." I responded with a smile. After holding onto each other for a while we released from the hug and Jacob took my face in both of his hands and placed a gentle kiss on my lips. "Goodnight beautiful." Jacob said just above a whisper, his forehead resting on mine. "Goodnight Jacob." I smiled and leaned in for one more kiss. I unlocked my door and walked in, waving goodbye to him. 

I closed the door and turned around to see all the girls sitting on my bed, smiles plastered on their faces. "Tell. Us. Everything." Hannah said instantly. I playfully rolled my eyes and sat on Peytons bed. "Okay Peyton, you told me so, I have a crush on Jacob Bertrand." I said. "Well duh! We've known that since the start! So what happened tonight?" Peyton asked. "He taught me how to surf and it was a lot of fun but tiring so I just chilled on my board and watched him surf for a bit. After that we sat down and talked a bit, he asked me about my dating life and he ended up telling me about his ex. I felt awful when he told me about it, I don't understand how someone could do that to him." I said, a sad expression growing on my face. All the girls nodded understandingly, they all knew how bad Jacob was hurt by his ex, especially Peyton. "Anyways, after that he-" I started, then looked at them and smirked. They all raised their eyebrows. "He WHAT?!" They all said in unison. "He told me he liked me, a lot." I said. They all squealed in excitement. "I TOLD YOU! I FREAKING TOLD YOU!!" Peyton yelled and ran over to jump on me. 

"So what happened after that?" Nichole asked. "I told him I felt the same about him, and we both admitted we have liked each other from the start and just didn't know if the feelings were mutual." I said. Peyton slapped her forehead and said "Y'all are DUMB." I laughed and continued on. "So then we uhh, kissed." I said. Their jaws dropped. "ADDIIII!" Peyton squealed from next to me and pulled me into a hug. "Okay I love this so much." Mary said. 

"So what now? Did he ask you out?" Hannah asked. I shook my head. "No, so I really don't know what's next. I guess we'll see." I said and shrugged. They all nodded. "Don't worry, he's probably just waiting for the perfect moment, him being the cheesy guy that he is." Peyton said. "What could be more perfect than on a beach in Malibu?!" Hannah said. "He probably just doesn't want to move too fast." I admitted. "I mean we did just tell each other about our feelings tonight." They all nodded in agreement. "Yeah I guess you're right. He better make his move soon though." Hannah warned. We all laughed. "Don't worry, I'm sure he's got something up his sleeve for when he does."

ADDISON'S POV

The rest of the week in Malibu consisted of us going to the beach, sight seeing, Jacob trying to teach us all how to surf and overall just becoming closer as a group. Jacob and I took advantage of any alone time we could get and shared many secret make outs and just intimate time together. In public he would hold my hand or have his arm draped around my shoulder, not caring who was looking, but it wasn't like the whole group didn't know what was going on between us anyways. I still didn't know what we were, we hadn't talked about our conversation on the beach since it happened, so throughout the week I stood genuinely confused about the whole situation. Sure we were acting like a couple, but we haven't made anything official. I wanted to talk to him about it soon, and tonight was our last night on vacation, so what better time then now.
