belly had decided to go outside for a night swim to see conrad with his feet in the water, a lit cigarette in his mouth.

lizzy was upstairs in their room on the bed while jeremiah picked her outfit. "jere can you hurry up? i still need to do my makeup," she whined.

"you don't need it," he mumbled. "why is it that i don't huh?" she grinned cleverly, thinking she was about to get something out of him.

he turned around and bent down to the point where he was mere inches from her face. "because you're smokin' hot without it." he smirked, handing her a crop top and mini skirt.

flustered, she grabbed the clothes and slid from under him, awkwardly stepping around the bed. he stared at her. she stared back expectantly. "turn around, jere."

he sat on the bed and faced opposite of her, respecting her wishes.

⁂

"okay, done!" lizzy exclaimed, turning and facing the boy.

"you're so cute," he groaned once he saw the outfit he'd picked out paired with the girl of his dreams.

"you mean it?" she asked innocently, walking over to him before sitting next to him on the bed.

"always." was the last thing said before they placed their hands on each other's faces and leaned in. lizzy intertwined her fingers in the boy's hair as he deepened the kiss.

"oookay, are you guys ready or wh- oh. my. god." steven gasped as he barged into lizzy and belly's room.

"actually, not oh my god. holy shit. this isn't the first time, right? i'm not surprised, i mean, this was bound to happe-"

"steven shut up!" the two said at the same time.

"yes, it was!"

"yeah, bro, you kinda ruined lizbear's first kiss."

almost immediately, tears formed in the girl's eyes. "i wasn't your first?" she whipped her head to look at jeremiah, who wanted to slap himself for upsetting her.

"absolutely not! he's hooked up with at least half of cousins!" steven blurted.

"yeah, well, no. it was my best!" he reached out and placed a hand on her shoulder. he took his other hand and grabbed her chin, directing her to look at him.

"look, lizzy, i promise yo-"

"lalalalalalalalala! i don't want to hear this let's goo!" steven broke in, plugging his ears.

⁂

racing down the stairs, lizzy remained hurt as she'd saved herself for jeremiah her whole life, jeremiah had regretted hooking up with numerous people just because he could, and steven tried to forget what he'd seen.

busting through the back door, lizzy first, jeremiah second, and steven last.

"first bonfire of the summer!" jeremiah yelled excitedly, earning a giggle from steven and an eye roll from lizzy.

"c'mon man we're leavin' you ready?" jeremiah asked conrad. lizzy walked over to him and grabbed his hand, dragging him up and behind her. conrad shamefully looked down and found himself flustered. "jesus, you want everyone to see your ass?"

"can i come?" belly asked.

"uh, no."

"the moms are getting everything ready for a movie night."

like laurel had said, lizzy went wherever jeremiah went and jeremiah went wherever lizzy went. movie nights with the moms were typically belly's thing as jeremiah was always somewhere else.
