Angie POV
After successfully escaping Jeff and the sea and making it back to my towel, I laid down next to Lexi, although my eyes were firmly fixed on Drew who now had one of the female wrestlers draped all over him.
"Who's that?" I ask Lexi who looks up from her magazine
"Oh that's Carmella" she says "she's always had her eye on Drew"
"Oh" I say not taking my eyes off him, as I watch his eyes meet mine and he smiles, I give him a half smile and then she turns his face back to look at her.
"If you two keep staring at each other people are going to notice" Lexi giggles "although I don't blame you, I mean look at him"
"Hmm" I say looking away, finally having had enough of watching
"Hey he loves you" Lexi says giving my hand a squeeze "stop worrying"
"Look at her Lex" I sigh "what the hell is he doing with me? You know what I'm just going to go, tell Jeff I said bye"
"Angie wait" she calls after me but I just keep walking to my car, I need to get out of here, away from that.
Drew POV
Looking up I see Angel leaving and I know that Carmella's little show must of upset her.
It took what seemed like a life time to get her off me, I swear that woman is like an octopus.
"Leave her" Stephen says "let her have some time alone, if you go after her you will only end up rowing"
"Damn it" I say kicking the sand "why can't that woman leave me alone"
"Lord knows, I don't" he says "but then I'm not that way inclined, anyway I'm seeing her tonight I'll talk to her then"
Jeff POV
Heading back to our spot on the beach i see that Lexi is on her own.
"Hey where's Angie?" I ask plopping down onto my towel
"She just left" she sighs "she said to tell you bye"
"What did I miss?" I ask "why did she leave?"
"Carmella" she says "she was all over Drew"
"And what was he doing?" I ask
"Trying to fight her off" she says "without much success"
"Right" I say standing up and grabbing my stuff "I'll catch you later"
Angie POV
When I finally make it back to the hotel, I have a shower, pull on some underwear and stand in front of the mirror.
For the first time in my life I analyse my reflection, noting all the differences between my body and hers. She is slim and beautiful, I am a cubby size 14 and at best I'm pretty.
Pulling on some comfy clothes I lay down on the bed and stare at the ceiling, letting a few tears fall, why is he with me when he could have some one like her?
"Angie let me in" I hear Jeff's voice call through the door, when I open it he sweeps me up in a hug
"Are you ok?" He asks and I nod against his chest "tell me the truth" he says
"Alright no I'm not ok" I sigh "what the hell is he doing with me Jeff? When he could have some one like her"
"He's with you because he loves you" he says holding me close "if he wanted some one like her he'd be with her"
"I know he loves me" I say "but I can't match up to her, I mean look at me, it's nothing diet and exercise won't fix but still"
"And what makes you think he wants you to match up to her?" He asks
"Nothing really" I say "never in my life have I ever had some one make me feel as insecure as she does"
"I tell you what" he says "take some time to think about it and if it's really what you want, I will, help you with the exercise part" he says smiling down at me
"Your amazing you know that" I say smiling up at him
"Only for people I care about" he says kissing the top of my head.
Jeff's offer to help had made me feel a bit better, knowing that I had the option to make a change if I wanted to. I know Jeff is right about Drew but maybe this was the kick up the ass I need to change my lifestyle and be a bit healthier
