*Dominique’s POV*

I’d chucked the heels off my feet a long time ago and now Justin and I were walking along the shoreline, our bare feet digging into the sand. We were laughing and I was in my heaven. It was just like the old days when we’d be sitting on his couch, me putting my fingers through his blonde, now brown hair. He’d do the same to me. I remembered it like yesterday, only it wasn’t yesterday. It was a couple of months ago. I remembered how he loved my curly hair and would always bounce the curls, both of us laughing in the process.

“I miss it,” I whispered under my breath.

“Hmm?” he asked.

“Oh nothing,” I answered and sat down on the sand.

I could care less if my dress got dirty. All I wanted to do was sit here; just him and I living in the old days. I’d do anything to go back to what we used to be, but I didn’t even know if that was going to be possible. I felt a hand wrap around mine and I looked down. Justin had intertwined his fingers with mine. I smiled and squeezed his hand a little tighter. I didn’t want to let go and there was no chance I would until we solved this thing.

“Do you trust me now after all that us girls have done for you guys? And after all that we’ve been through?” I asked him.

He looked me in the eyes and smiled. “I never stopped trusting you and I never will. You mean too much to me and I love you too much. You’re my girlfriend. What did you expect me to say?” he asked.

I looked down at the ground. “I just, I don’t know,” I basically whispered my reply. “You and Thomas shocked Vicky and I when you pretty much said you didn’t trust us. I couldn’t believe that you of all people would be like that…”

“I’m sorry sweetie. I didn’t mean anything. I was being an idiot and now I realize that. When you walked out of the house, I was worried you would never come back.”

“Of course I’d come back. I love you,” I said.

“I love you too,” he said and kissed me. It was like one of those movie kisses where you were on the beach with a guy and the water was splashing against your feet. It was perfect. I’m glad I hadn’t left him for good.

*Michelle’s POV*

We all went back to the house after the prom and we were sitting on the couch talking. Chris and I had talked about some stuff during the prom, but he really didn’t say much. I think he was trying to figure out what he was going to say to me. And my prediction proved to be right.

“Mitchy, can I talk to you outside?” he asked.

“Sure,” I said and walked out onto the deck.

He came up behind me and slipped his arms around my waist, holding me close to him. He put his chin on my shoulder, whispering in my ear, “I love you Chelle and I don’t want you to ever forget it.”

I turned around and looked at him. “Why all of a sudden the change of heart?” I asked.

“There was no change of heart. I’ve changed and I did it for you. You mean the world to me sweetheart,” he answered and kissed me.

“You mean the world to me also. Just promise me you’ll never break my heart again. That’s been happening way too often with us and I’d prefer if it didn’t happen at all,” I said.

“Oh, I can definitely promise that. I hate seeing you cry.”

He kissed me once more and took my hand, leading me inside. All of the girls were excited to see us together again. I could just tell by looking at their faces. I was pretty happy myself.

*Ashley’s POV*

Everybody was downstairs getting all mushy mushy with their boyfriends and I couldn’t take it anymore. José still hadn’t made any effort at all to get back with me. Maybe he just didn’t want me back. I lay on my side on the bed and sighed. I guess I had to face the truth. I’d have to find someone else and that was going to be easy. I couldn’t just forget about him. We’d gone to all of this to get the guys back and it had worked. Well, for most of the guys it had.

I noticed a shadow cast on the wall and turned around to see who was standing in the doorway. Like I’d been hoping and expecting, it was José. He smiled and lay down next to me on his side so he was looking directly at me. Next thing I knew, he had his arms around me and was pulling me closer into a passionate kiss. I kissed him over and over again and he finally pulled away.

“I love you Ash,” he said.

“I love you too,” I replied and started kissing him again.

He held onto my waist and pulled my even closer which I didn’t think was even possible. I slowly took off his shirt and he just looked at me.

“Are you sure you want this?” he asked. I smiled. At least he asked.

“More than anything,” I responded and kissed him.

And one thing led to another and…

*Michelle’s POV*

“Hey, where are José and Ashley?” Dominique asked.

“I don’t know. Probably off making out somewhere,” AG teased.

“Or doing something else,” Chris added. We looked up from where his voice was coming from. He was upstairs attempting to open the door. “It’s locked.”

“You don’t think they...” I started.

“Oh yeah, they definitely are,” David laughed. “You have two missing people and a locked door. What else would they be doing?”

Angel opened up her mouth to say something, but he cut her off with a kiss.

“Don’t even think about saying something pervy,” he told her and she giggled.

“Oh great, where are we sleeping tonight Chris?” I questioned.

“Looks like we’re going to have to settle with the couches,” he said.

*The next morning* *Jose’s POV*

I had been staring at her for the past half an hour. She was so gorgeous. She opened up her eyes and lifted her head off of my chest.

“Good morning,” I softly said.

“Good morning,” she smiled and kissed me.

“So, are we back together?” I asked her.

Her head shot up. “DUH! What the hell did you think?”

“Whoa, whoa, calm down babe. I was just making sure that you weren’t going to leave me after that.”

“Of course I wouldn’t leave you! You should know that by now. I’m not that kind of girl.”

“I know. I’m sorry. Well we should get downstairs. We’re leaving today and we’re going to get questioned. I feel it coming,” I suggested.

“Alright, let’s get ready.”

So we got ready for the day and went downstairs. Everybody was staring at us like they knew what went on. They weren’t stupid. But apparently they decided they weren’t going to ask. That was a good choice on their part cause I wouldn’t have talked anyways.

“Everybody needs to go and pack all of their stuff. We’re leaving in 2 hours and we need to clean this cabin spotless,” Ashlee ordered.

We did what she said and two hours later we were on our way home. What we came face to face to when we got home was NOT what we were expecting.
