//Karis' POV//
We're sitting on the boat with Nash driving. we finally found a spot close to the boardwalk and parked. "Hey do you guys want to walk to the beach?" Matt asked. "yeah" everyone chimed in. we grabbed our beach stuff and started walking. I was carrying two chairs and my beach bag. as I was walking I tripped over a messed up board and everything went flying out of my hands and I fell forward on my bag. "ow" I groan. "Oh my gosh are you okay" Hayes asked while helping me up. Everyone was staring at me like I was about to freak out. I stood there for and second and burst out laughing. everyone stats laughing along with me. I soon catch my breath. "yeah I'm fine, that was just a bit embarrassing." I say smiling. "we should start heading to the beach now" I say. I then start to walk towards the scattered chairs and then I grab my bag and start walking with the boys trailing closely behind. I step on the hot sand burning my feet so I start running to a spot and throw down the towel on the sand. I jump on the towel and rub my burnt feet. I turn around to see the boys trailing behind I decide I want to tan to I take off my clothes and set a timer and turn on my iTunes music while I lay down. I'm listening to hypnotic by Zella day when I feel the warmth leave my body. I open my eyes and see Hayes standing over me giving me and evil smile. I slowly and carefully stand up and start to back up as he edged toward me. "Hayes what are you doing?" I ask worriedly. "You'll see" he says while smirking. I then start running down the beach as fast as my legs can carry me but tbh Im fast but not as fast as Hayes. so he soon catches up to me and grabs me from behind and throws me over his shoulder. I start laughing uncontrollably."let me down" I yell between laughs. "no can do sweetheart" he says while going towards the water. I start hitting his back telling him to let me go but he keeps refusing. I then feel the cold water hit me as he drops me in the water. I jump up in shock."Hayes" I yell. Matt and Nash are behind Hayes in the waster laughing there butt's off. I then start splashing them catching them off guard and we all just start splashing each other and just having fun. After I while I get out and dry off I check the time to see its 1:30 I then remember I have to get back by 2:00 because he wants to go to... The beach wait I'm at the beach they always go to. I quickly pull up my contacts and call my papa.
Papa: hey kiddo, you on your way back?
Me: hey, we actually ended up going to the beach with some other friends could you guys just meet us here?
Papa: yeah, sure sweetie see you soon, I love you
Me: I love you too, bye
Papa: bye
I hang up and get ready to tan again, when Hayes walks up to me. "who was that?" He asks. "just my papa he was wondering if I was coming back yet but I told him we were at the beach and he's just gonna come here" I say. "okay, good I wouldn't have wanted you to leave" he says smiling. "are you hungry" he asks. "yeah" I say. he goes to the cooler and pulls out two sandwiches and two bottles of water. "thanks" I say. we sit and talk and eat and just get to overall know each other better. "so what's home life like?" He asks. "umm it's good It's just me and my mom and I'm about to get a little brother next month" I say. Matt and Nash show up and talk with us. "oh that's great is it going to be a boy or a girl?" Hayes asks. "oh my gosh your pregnant?!!!" Nash and Matt say together. "No my mom is" I say giving them weird looks. "oh that makes a lot more sense" Matt says. "it's gonna be a boy" I say answering Hayes' question. "oh cool" he says seeming genuinely interested. "So I noticed you didn't mention anything about your dad how come?" Hayes asks. I then get really uncomfortable I see my papa and Loretta step on the beach. "umm it's nothing but I actually have to go so I'll see you guys later I guess. I say standing up and grabbing my stuff."I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable please don't leave" he says. "it's fine but I do gotta go though" I lie not wanting to look them in the eye. "okay" he says making it sound more like a question. I walk off towards my papa and Loretta. "hey I'm actually kind of tired of the beach can we just go for a boat ride or something" I say. "oh okay, yeah" Loretta says we then walk back to their boat they drove here and ride off. I sit and think about what happened back at the beach. Was I rude about it? Should I have just told him? I just don't like talking about it and I haven't really told anyone except for my best friends Madi, And Alicia cause there the only ones I really trust and we've been best friends since 6th grade. i drift off into my thoughts and just watch the waves roll by as we ride across the bay.
