The Jock and the Nerd (A Jc Caylen and Kian Lawley Story)

Chapter 15: Beaches&Heartbreak

Kian:

It's been a couple weeks since Jc and I went to DisneyWorld. We've hung out a lot lately, more than usual, if that was possible. He's even slept over at my house a few times.

Today, we've decided to take a trip to the beach with our friends: Ricky, Connor, Sam, Trevor, and his girlfriend Gretchen, Lia, and Andrea. I slam down Jc's trunk that's filled with our beach bags that has towels, sun lotion, and other things in it. I hop in the passenger seat and I look at Jc. "Ready to go."

Jc smiles as he slides down his sunglasses and backs out of the driveway, driving to the beach. I turn the radio up loud, as Chicken Fried by Zac Brown Band played. We arrived at the beach and Connor, Ricky, Trevor and Gretchen are already there. We all great each other and walk down to the beach, laying out our things. It's relevantly hot, about 80 degrees out.

Five minutes later, Lia and Andrea arrive and they greet and smile at us. I strip my shirt off over my head and bury my feet into the sand, pulling my sunglasses on. I look out at the water, feeling peaceful.

I feel someone shove me into the water and I tense up, surprised, the water freezing. I turn around and see Jc laughing hard, clutching his stomach. I charge at him, and Jc's eyes widen in fear as he starts running. "Kian, no!" Jc screams, laughing. "You're gonna get it!" I scream, grabbing his arm and pushing him into the water. I hear him shriek and I laugh loudly. Jc pulled me on top of him, mid laugh, and my body slams on top of his. We smile at each other, despite the fact that we were just full on tackling each other.

Jc props himself on his elbow, leaning up to kiss me. I kiss him back, softly, and I smile, rolling off him into the cool water. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Lia and Andrea approaching us. I turn my head, smiling and waving at them. They wave back, giggling to themselves. Jc and I look at each other, shrugging as to why they are giggling.

"Hey, Kian." Andrea said, drawing out my name. She and Lia walked knee deep into the water, next to us. They twirled their hair and batted their eyes as they talked to us, and I was oblivious as to why.

Soon, they got cold and walked to get their towels. Jc and I were still in the water, and Jc stood up and held out his hands for me, pulling me up. "I don't get what that was about." I said, shrugging and cold as I emerged from the water. Andrea and Lia never gave us that much attention.

"They don't get that we're gay...And together." Jc says, chuckling. My eyebrows raise in surprise. They were flirting with us? Everyone knew we were gay. Everyone...Except them, I guess.

Jc and I made our way up into the sand where everyone was standing and mingling. He handed me a towel and I smiled at him in thanks. I wrapped it around me, shivering. Jc saw I was cold and came over to me, wrapping his arms around me. I sighed into Jc and let is warmth surround me.

Jc:

Lia and Andrea kept bugging Kian and I. No matter how we tried to dismiss them to have our own time to talk, they wouldn't leave our side. I rolled my eyes as I saw Andrea stand so close next to Kian, who was oblivious to Andrea flirting with him. It wasn't hard for me to catch on, though. Lia kept trying to touch me, and I just kept pulling my arm away swiftly. I didn't want to get into something with Lia. I love Kian.

Soon, dark came around and we decided to have a bonfire. I gave my sweatshirt to Kian as he was so much colder than me. I just kept the towel around me.

I was sitting in a chair and Lia came over to me, sitting down in my lap. I panicked, moving out of my seat, but Lia pinned me down. I tried to break free while Lia leant down, kissing me. I almost gagged, because it didn't feel the same without Kian's lips on mine. I finally broke free and saw Kian standing there, staring at me, disbelief in his eyes. "Kian," I said softly, reaching for him, but he just turned around and ran.

"Kian!" I ran towards him. It was really dark, and I could barely make out Kian's sillouet in the darkness. My heart pounded faster at the thought of losing him, and I pushed farther. By the time I got to him, we were both in tears.

"Kian," I choked out, trying to explain myself. Kian shook his head, turning away from me, gasping for air.

"She came on to me, I tried to pull away, I swear!" I pleaded, grabbing his shoulder gently and turning him around. I couldn't quite see, but I thought I saw his eyes puffy red, and my heart broke even more.

We stayed like that, staring at each other, for about a minute, before Kian started talking. "You can't act like you didn't want her to kiss you, Jc. You and her, it would be so much better than you and I, so much easier. You don't have to stay with me for my own sake." He chokes up at the end, and I take a step closer to him. He doesn't take a step away, but he flinches.

"Kian, I don't want her. I want you. When she kissed me, all I could think about you, how bad her lips felt against mine, and how badly I wanted yours. I don't want easy, Kian, I want you." I beg, trying to reach out for him. Kian looks away, taking a step away from me. I let my hand fall to my side as I feel myself breaking.

"No, Jc...We can't do this anymore. I can't do it. It's too hard." Kian shakes his head, running away before I can say anything. I cry hard, stumbling after him, but I can't see much because of how dark it was and my vision was clouded from my tears.

I trip over a branch, and I feel myself falling. This is it. This is how it ends. I'll never be happy. Not without him. I couldn't be enough for him... I suddenly feel some hands holding me up, but I don't care to see who it is. Everything hurts. I just wanna go home.

You are all gonna hate me for this 'xD...Just bear with me here. ;)

Xoxo, Alli.
