ALEC ROMANO

The news the next morning was swarmed with pictures of O'Connor's body. They had tested it and no DNA had come back, but all they know is that he was shot.

"They know he was part of a gang so they're ruling it a suicide." Marco shrugged, rolling his shoulders. He was reading off his phone.

"Has anyone seen Amara?" I asked, "She was supposed to be down ten minutes ago." I checked my watch.

We were going to the beach. I hate the beach, but Joey and Finn want to go and Amara said she wants to get out of the house. 

"I saw her in her room last, she was putting on sun screen." Finn said, shrugging his shoulders.

I headed back into the room, "Amara?" I asked. The room was empty.

"Amara?" I called. Beginning to get worried, I called her cell.

It was ringing from the bathroom. I knocked on the door, "Mar? Are you in there?" I asked.

"Don't come in here." She coughed. I frowned, she was sick, again?

"Baby let me in, please." I knocked softly. 

"I'll be out in a second just-"

I grimaced when I heard the sound of her throwing up again.

I tried to the door handle again and was annoyed when it wouldn't open, "Amara please open the door, I'm worried." I said.

The door finally clicked and I barged in, seeing her hunched over the toilet. 

"Hey, what's going on?" I asked.

Brushing her hair back, I held it out of her face, "Do you have heatstroke or something? Do you wanna stay home?" I was concerned. Usually she's a lot more tan but she's pale and rather skinny.

"No. I'll be fine in a couple minutes, just give me a second." 

"Is it food poisoning?" She shook her head 'no.'

I was confused, "What is it then, hmm? You're worrying me." 

She closed the toilet lid and flushed before leaning against the wall, I slid down beside her and pulled her to me, holding her fragile body against mine, "I have something to tell you-"

Before she could finish her sentence, Joey came barging in, "Finn pushed me!" Joey cried.

Amara giggled, removing herself from my grasp before welcoming Joey with open arms. Joey hugged his sister and I smiled at the embrace, "What was it you wanted to tell me?" I asked.

She smiled and shook her head, "Not now." She whispered, "Also, your Mom's coming over for dinner tonight."

"Can you put some sunscreen on my back please?" I heard Amara say. I peeked one eye open through my sunglasses and eagerly took the bottle from her.

She winked at me and then lay back down on her stomach, head laying on her arms.

She was wearing a simple black bikini that was a little too tight in the ass area... not that I'm complaining. 

I opened the cap and squirted a bit onto my hands before rubbing it into her back. She groaned slightly, "I think I'm getting burnt." She giggled. 

I massaged her shoulders, slowly making my way to her lower back before working the sunscreen into her ass, "I think I'm good now, thanks." She laughed, sitting upright.

I pulled her bikini triangles over her chest more so it covered the parts I didn't want anyone else seeing. Amara held out her hand, "Come to the water with me?" She asked.

I nodded my head and took her hand. Marco was sitting on his towel looking irritated while Giovanni made a sand castle with Joey, "Where's Finn?" Amara asked. Marco smirked, nodding toward the ice cream shack.

I scanned the place before I saw Finn. Amara squealed from beside me, "Oh my God, can we go over and embarrass him?" She asked. I laughed, "No. But we can go and give him ice cream money." 

I held Amara's hand, her fingers loosely tangled in mine as we walked on the hot concrete to the ice cream parlour. Finn saw us coming and widened his eyes.

"Um- Olivia, this is my sister, Amara." 

Amara smiled, "Hi."

Olivia gave her a shy smile back, "And my sisters boyfriend." I was caught off guard by the word boyfriend and apparently so was everyone else, but we played it off, "Thought you might need some money, here." Amara said, slipping a fifty into his pocket, "See you later." 

After frolicking back up the beach, Amara slowly dipped her feet into the water and cruised in slowly, her whole body submerging into the blue water. I went in next, grabbing her by the waist and pulling her to me before she wrapped her legs around my torso. 

She leaned her smooth cheek against my shoulder and sighed, "I love this." She giggled, "I love you." 

Her lips touched mine, "I love you too." She smiled.

"Now, what was it you wanted to tell me?" I asked, dying to know what it was. She rolled her eyes, "So impatient." 

"Please. I'm so eager." I said annoyed. Amara sighed, "Later." 

Her smile was replaced with a frown, "What is it?" 

"I just- I don't know if you're gonna be mad or not." 

"Why would I be mad? What did you do?" 

"Wait-" I cut off her open mouth, "What did you buy?" 

She laughed, "No- it's not that. I don't know. I don't know how you're going to react, that's all." 

I looked down at her chest, seeing her nipples through her bikini triangles, "Alec!" She gasped, eyes up here." 

"I was making sure you didn't pierce your tits!" I surrendered, defending myself. 

"I didn't. It's nothing like that. Look, you'll find out. Just promise me you won't freak out or- make a scene. I'm already freaked out."

"Is that why you invited my Mom?" I asked, pulling away from her hug. She nodded sheepishly. She was still clung to my body, "Amara you're scaring me. Please tell me, now." 

She looked hesitant and shook her head, "Tonight."

Sighing, I gave up.
