Chapter 26: New Romance

Dylan's POV

I walked over to our towels and noticed Carissa wasn't there. Neither was Hayes, or Katie. I scanned the beach and my eyes landed near the ocean and I saw Carissa with a random dude.

She was laughing and he was carrying her bridal style. He put her down and they were splashing each other.

Wow, I am such a loner.

You know what? I'm gonna get some ice cream. Ya, that will help. I walked over to the food areas and got a vanilla and chocolate cone.

I took a couple of bites on my way back to my towel. I was almost back onto the sand when I tripped on the last stair. I dropped my ice cream and face planted in the sand.

"Are you serious?" I muttered to myself.

I kept my eyes glued on Carissa and the guy. He is so ugly, why is Carissa even with him? He doesn't even have a six pack!

Who am I kidding, he's pretty good looking (from a girls point of view) and he has an eight pack. What a surprise.

Am I jealous? Yup.

I have a solution. I'm gonna make Carissa jealous.

I'm going to date a girl and bring her to the house and everything. But, it has to be someone Carissa despises.

Kourtney. Perfect. Carissa probably doesn't like her because of what happened between her and Katie. She's hot, so it can't be too bad right?

"Dylan?! Is that you?!" A high pitched voice screamed, breaking my internal war with myself.

Kourtney. Wow, perfect timing. She had on a strapless, push-up bandeau that was bright pink and matching bottoms. It really complimented her tan skin.

"Hey, Kourtney," I said.

"How are you?" She asked.

"Good, thanks," I replied. "Wanna do something? Like Mini Golf in the arcade?" I asked her.

"Ya, that sounds fun!" She exclaimed. "Wait aren't you with Carissa?"

"I never was." I snapped.

She immediately backed off but then started flirting with me again. We walked to the mini golf and bonded a lot. I think she likes me.

Mini golf was amazing with her. We finished up and I won. I suggested we go back to the beach and she agreed.

"Kourtney, I know we haven't really go to know each other until now, but I've always liked you. Will you be my girlfriend?" I asked. Wow, I'm a better liar than I thought.

"OMG, Yes!" She replied in a screechy voice.

Phew, it worked.

We reached the beach and Carissa, the unknown guy, Hayes, and Katie were talking. Katie saw Kourtney and I and her face immediately filled with rage. She angrily stood up.

"I thought I told you to stay the he*l away from us and to stay away from Dy-" I cut her off.

"Okayyyyy, calm down. Kourtney is my girlfriend," I announced.

"You're kidding right? Why would you date this slu-" I cut her off again.

"Look, it's fine," I assured.

"Ya, no it's not," She said then went back to Hayes.

Carissa came with a smile on her face. "I'm happy you found someone, Dylan," She said.

"Thanks," I muttered, angry that she wasn't jealous.

"Everyone, this is Jason, my friend back from middle school," Carissa announced.
