* Next Morning *

Wes had woken me up from the thousand calls and texts he had given me and quite frankly, I was slightly agitated. "What?," I groaned when I answered his fourteenth call. "Good morning babygirl, finally you're awake," he chimed. My heart fluttered at his voice. Why was he in such a good mood? I groaned again, burying my face into my pillow. "I'm outside, let me in," he demanded as I quickly sat up. He's here? "Okay, hold on, I'll be right there," I jumped down from my bed and shuffled towards my bedroom door, looking at myself in the mirror in the process. I looked like shit but oh well. He stayed on the phone as I walked down, step by step and to the front door. I opened it, seeing Wesley's back facing me and he quickly turned when I opened the door. I hung up the phone as he stepped inside, wrapping his large arms around me and lifting me from the ground. "Wes, put me down," I laughed as he threw me over his shoulder. "No," he said, walking me over to the couch. He lifted me from his shoulder, tossing me down onto the soft cushion. He hovered over me, planting a kiss to my lips, "I missed you," he whispered. "I missed you too," I bit my lip, lifting my head from the cushion to kiss him again. "Come on, put on a bathing suit and get ready, I'm gonna teach you to surf," he exclaimed when he pulled away, picking me up from the couch and placing me on the floor. "Surfing?," I questioned, not sure if I was comfortable doing this. "Yeah, why?," he asked, suddenly concerned. "Uh, just w-wondering. Hold on," I stuttered, jogging upstairs. I closed my bedroom door, stripping completely and throwing on my mint green bikini. The top was push-up so my breasts looked bigger than usual. It was my only bathing suit I owned so I had to wear it. I checked myself in my mirror, quickly brushing out the knots in my hair. I grabbed an elastic from my desk and flipped my head over, throwing my long hair into a messy bun. I didn't bother throwing makeup on and I stared at myself in my mirror. I took a deep breath; why was I so nervous? I threw on a pair of light blue shorts and a white t-shirt, slipping my feet into a pair of flip-flops. I quickly brushed my teeth before grabbing my phone and running back downstairs. Wes's thumb was tapping away at his phone before his vision lifted from his phone screen to me. "Ready?," he asked. I nodded in confirmation before we headed towards the private beach.

"Hey Jenn!," I saw four familiar faces, two of which I haven't seen in about two and a half weeks: Rachel and Elizabeth. Drew and Alanna were standing next to them before Rachel and Elizabeth were running towards me, their arms open. I couldn't help but laugh as they knocked into me, causing me to stumble back. "We haven't talked in forever!," Rachel exclaimed as we were embraced in each other. "Yeah, apparently you're dating Wes?," Liz raised an eyebrow before looking back and forth between Wesley and I. I blushed before shyly answering, "yeah." They laughed as Wes stared at me, a wide smile spread across his lips. "Why didn't you tell us?," Rachel asked, shaking my arms slightly. I shrugged, trying to find something to say, "I guess it never occurred to me, I'm sorry," I laughed as they did too. "It's okay babe, so, while you have some alone time with each other, Rachel and I will be over there," Liz smirked before jogging back over to Drew and Alanna. I waved to them as they smiled and waved back, facing Rachel and Liz once again. "They seem way too happy," Wes admitted, causing me to throw my head back in laughter. "Yeah, I like them though," I chuckled, looking back at them. "Come here babygirl," Wes began to walk towards the water, holding his hand out to me. I grabbed it, stretching a smile across my face. I entwined my fingers with his as we neared the water and I noticed a surf board planted in the sand. Suddenly, my stomach began twisting as I got more and more nervous. "Take off your clothes," he demanded as I hesitantly unbuttoned my shorts, sliding them down my legs. I tensed as I removed my t-shirt, knowing Wesley was looking at me. I peered up at him, noticing his eyes traveling everywhere along my body. After I dropped my shirt, all he needed to do was remove his shirt so he brought his hands to the hem of it and pulled it over his head, leaving him in only his red swimming trunks. I've never seen him shirtless and I couldn't help but stare. His abs were so defined and his chest was so muscular. I tried to keep my vision elsewhere but it was fairly difficult. He noticed me staring and chuckled as I looked away, blushing. He held out his hand again, waiting for me to grab it. When I did, he bent down to grab the board, leading me closer to the water.

"Okay, here's good," he mumbled to himself as he laid the board down once again, slightly in the water. "Alright, before we go into the water, I want you to get the feel of the board okay?," he stared at me, waiting for my confirmation. I nodded as he pointed down towards the board, "okay, step on," he instructed as I took a deep breath. I took a quick look towards the water before down at the board. "Do you want to do this?," he asked concerned as I quickly nodded, "yeah, I'm sorry, I'm just kind of nervous," I admitted, shaking out my hands. He put his hands on my hips, reducing the distance between us and pressed his lips to mine. "It's okay, I'll be right next to you the whole time," he whispered, pressing his forehead to mine. I nodded before lifting my chin to kiss him again. "Okay, I'm ready," I took one last deep breath as Wes walked over to the other side of the board. I lifted my left leg, pressing it upon the board as I gripped Wesley's shoulders, lifting my opposite foot. His hands found their way to my hips, holding me for support. I looked down at my feet as I spread my legs slightly, bending my knees. I looked up at Wes who was already looking into my eyes, a slight smile hidden. "Am I standing okay?," I asked, realizing how shaky my voice was. He looked down towards my feet before whispering, "perfect." I laughed nervously, biting my lower lip. "Okay, now it's time for the real thing," Wes informed me as I nodded, once again, taking a deep breath. "Alright, let's go," he smiled as I braced myself for what was next.

* Wesley's POV *

Teaching her to surf was a great success. "That was so fun! We're definitely doing that again," Jenn squeezed my hand excitedly, resting her head on my shoulder as we approached the others. "Finally! You guys have been surfing for about an hour," Drew smiled before suggesting, "should I call Keaton and tell him to come here with Emily?" "Yeah, sure," I immediately answered as Jenn was ripped from our grip by Rachel and Liz. I looked over to them as Liz whispered something to Jenn and she giggled as she nodded. They gestured Alanna to join their conversation as Drew was calling Keaton, leaving me standing alone. After a quick minute, Drew hung up the phone, "alright man, I'll see you in a few." He tossed his phone in his pocket, walking towards me, "he said he's picking up Emily now and he'll be here soon." I nodded before turning towards Drew, a small smile on my lips, "Jenn's birthday is in about a month, I think I know what I want to do for her." Her birthday was the 2nd of August and today was July 1st. I was explaining to him what I was planning before Jenn jumped on my back, wrapping her legs around my waist. "I'll tell you later," I mouthed as I cupped my hands under her thighs, holding her up. "What're you doing babygirl," I laughed as she wrapped her arms around my neck. She replied by planting a kiss to my neck. I dropped her down before turning around and lifting her again, so now we were face to face. Her legs wrapped around my waist again and my hands clasped together under her butt so I could hold her up. She pressed her forehead to mine, looking deeply into my eyes. She smelled like that of the ocean and I noticed a few specks of sand stuck to her chest. Wind whipped her hair around as her hands slowly glided down my arms. She lifted her chin slightly, touching our lips, but never kissing. Our lips brushed against one anothers as she brought one hand to the nape of my neck and kissed me ever so gently and pouring so much passion into it. I've never been more happy in my entire life, and now that she's in it, I felt complete. Every minute we spent together felt forever lasting and quite frankly, I think I was beginning to fall in love with her.
