It's been three days since Wes and I last spoke. Actually, it's really been three days, five hours, fifty two minutes and forty five seconds...but who's counting?

ME, THAT'S WHO!! I've missed him. I've missed Wes way more than I ever would have imagined. I missed his smile, his touch, his scent, our tickle fights, the way he would smile in between kisses. I even missed running my fingers through his thick chocolate brown hair.

I laid propped up by pillows on the bed in my baggy sweatpants and sweatshirt, hair pulled up in a messy bun, I flipped through the pages of my favorite fashion magazine. One by one, I absentmindedly turned the thin, slippery sheets, occasionally stuffing my mouth with some m&m's from the bag beside me. Without my piano I had no choice but to rely on chocolate to help me feel better.

The bed sheet was crinkled up and full of creases. A few other magazines were scattered on the bed. The ceiling fan whirred away at full speed over my head. I continued flipping through the magazine until I came across an ad for the Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio cologne. The very familiar scent wafted up to tickle my nose and I couldn't help but smile as thoughts of Wes came flooding in again. I shook my head furiously, flung the magazine onto the floor and pulled my hair back in frustration. I wanted to scream at myself, and just break down crying in an empty field where no one could hear the animal-sounding cries coming from me. I didn't want to miss him like this.

As much as I tried I was unable to stop the memories of all the moments I had shared with Wes flooding into my mind. I ran my fingers through my hair and pulled it loose as I thought of something to keep my mind off him. I hugged my pillow to my chest and groaned. When did life get so freaking complicated?! Suddenly my phone vibrated on the night stand next to the empty Ben and Jerry's container. I reached for my phone and checked the screen, it was a text from Jill.

look out the window ;) it read.

Ugh! What was this girl up to now? I reluctantly stood up and shuffled over to the window. I looked out and Jill was sitting on one of the lounge chairs by the pool already looking up at me. She flashed me a grin and pointed towards the pool.

I gasped with surprise. I thought Wes would try to avoid me after what happened between us, but there he was looking as hot as always, just floating in the water on an inflatable water mattress. Kale had his elbows propped up on the inflatable water mattress while he spoke to Wes. They must've been talking about something funny because they were both laughing their heads off.

I knew that despite how Wes looked and acted, he was hurting. I caught a glimpse of the shadows that lingered in his eyes. I wanted nothing more than to go downstairs and lay down beside him, take him into my arms and confess my love to him, but I knew I couldn't. What if he pushed me away?

I stared at him while I played with the tips of my long dark brown hair. I couldn't help but bite my lip at how delicious he looked. He had on a cute pair of grey and blue board shorts, his chocolate brown hair was damp and his sexy, tanned abs were right there, shining in the glowing sun. Gosh, he was so gorgeous.

Suddenly, a light, refreshingly sweet scent of jasmine enveloped me. I turned around not expecting Aunt Becky to be standing there. I gasped and clutched my chest from the mini heart attack she had caused.
