I Love You, I'm Sorry

Chapter 14.

The Summer I Turned Pretty

LEMON LET OUT A SIGH OF ANNOYANCE as she touched at her fascinator, feeling self conscious for wearing a wonky looking hat.

"Would you stop touching it." Belly scolded, slapping at her sisters hand.

"I don't like it!" Lemon told her sister.

"Well, I don't like mine either!" Belly retorted back, looking away from her sister until her eyes locked onto someone.

"Hey!" Belly greeted, smiling.

Lemon noticed she was talking to Jeremiah, though the boy simply gave them a once over look and looked way, "Hey, asshole!" She called out.

Jeremiah took a double look as his eyes widened, "Oh, my god! I didn't even recognize you girls." His eyes looking at the girls' dresses, preferably sticking to Lemon's.

Lemon put her whole weight onto her left leg as she placed her had on her waist, "Tell us the truth, Miah. Do we look stupid."

Belly looked at Jeremiah, awaiting for the boy's answer.

Jeremiah let out a laugh, "Um, uh- no, y-you look good. You both look good."

Lemon smiled as she shook her head fondly as Belly let out a laugh.

"Um, let me walk you guys over." Jeremiah offered.

Lemon blinked as her eyes stared at Jeremiah's naked upper half of his body, "Uh."

Belly giggled as she shook her head.

"What?" Jeremiah questioned, confused at the girls' behavior.

"You're practically naked, Miah." Lemon finally told the boy, "You can't walk us in looking like that."

"Oh, they won't mind." Jeremiah waves the girl off, "They'd love it, more than they'd hate it."

"Okay, sure, Fisher." Lemon rolled her eyes playfully as she began to walk away.

"Hey, are those pineapples?" Jeremiah asked as he took a closer look at Belly's dress.

"Pineapples?" Belly repeated.

"Yeah, pineapples." Jeremiah nodded.

"No, they're flowe- have you seen flowers before?" Belly quipped as she hooked her arm around her sister's own.

"I- I have, but that is, for sure a pineapple." Jeremiah said, running to a golf cart and placing the towels he'd been holding down, quickly running back to the twins.

"OH, THEY HAVE strawberry, raspberry type of cookies and they are to die for." Jeremiah groaned as he grasped at Lemon's hand, lacing their fingers together.

"Oh, really?" Lemon played into Jeremiah's dramatics before she then met her ultimate demise. Her smile diminishes as they walked into the room, noticing as every girl looked at them. All judgement in their eyes and on their faces.
