*Beau's POV*
"What the hell.." I muttered. I said it quietly, no one heard me. I squinted my eyes. Was I really seeing this? I was looking out of the window because I saw Mari sitting out there. Then this guy came and sat down beside her. I didn't really think much of it until...well, that. The guy kissed Mari. I know I shouldn't be watching but I wanted to see what would happen. This guy bothered me, I didn't like him.
"What are you looking at?" Daniel asked. He appeared out of no where.
I immediately took my eyes off of Mari and looked at Daniel. "Oh, nothing, I was just-"
"Watching Mari?" He laughed.
"No!" I snapped. I don't know why I sounded so angry so I spoke calmly. "I mean, I wasn't watching her. I just glanced out of the window and she happened to be there.."
"Okay, Beau, okay." Daniel shook his head, laughing. He walked away to talk to someone else.
I looked back through the window. Mari wasn't there anymore. But the guy was. Where did Mari go? I couldn't see the guy's face. I assumed that's who Mari was talking about when she said her ex-boyfriend was here. I shuffled over a few feet to get a better view out of the window, but I still didn't see Mari. She just disappeared in less than ten seconds. I wanted to go looking for her but I didn't want anyone else to think too much of it. I admit, I liked Mari. But I didn't want everyone knowing because they would make a big deal out of it. I decided to leave it for now, she would turn up somewhere.
*Mari's POV*
I was sitting in the backseat of the girls' car. I didn't want to go inside to the party, and it was too awkward to stay with Jake. I was just tired and I wanted to go home. It was a weird thing to say considering I was supposed to be hanging out with the janoskians, but I wanted the night to end. So Jake kissed me. And I liked it. But it didn't feel right. I told him I couldn't do this. I haven't seen Jake in years, what if he was a completely different person now? I wasn't exactly looking for a boyfriend now anyways, I was only here for the summer. I should have stopped him before he kissed me but I was too in the moment, now it was awkward and, well, he stole my first kiss. I guess he was always meant to be my first kiss though, he was my first boyfriend after all. I heard a knock on the window of the car. I turned my head to see Daniel. I opened the door for him when he pointed to the handle which probably meant he was asking to come in. It wasn't locked, but still. I let him in.
"Hey, Mari. What are you doing out here?" He asked. He sat down on the seat beside me.
"I don't know. I'm tired. I know nobody at this party." I sighed. I didn't want to get into the whole Jake thing.
"Yeah, I get it." Daniel nodded. We just sat there for a few minutes saying nothing. Then I thought of a question.
"How did you know I was here? And why did you come?" I asked. I looked over at him.
"One of the boys noticed you were gone so I came outside to look for you, then I saw you in the car." He answered.
"Oh." I smiled. One of the Janoskians noticed I was gone. "Who noticed?"
"Uh, Beau. He noticed you disappeared and got worried."
I tried to hide my grinning. Beau was worried about me. And he noticed I disappeared.
"Why don't you come back inside?" Daniel asked.
"I guess." I sighed. We both got out of the car and walked back to the party.
When we walked back inside, Daniel left to talk to some people. I saw Kat which meant the other girls would probably be with her too. I walked over to them so I wasn't alone. They all had drinks. By drinks, I meant alcoholic drinks of course. I kind of wanted one too, it would make the night easier. I wanted to enjoy myself too. It was almost as if Jordane read my mind because she asked me if I wanted a drink. I nodded and she got one for me. I was never much of a drinker, mostly because I didn't have friends to party with in the first place, but it couldn't hurt to try it now, right?
"So where were you?" Jenny asked. They all turned to look at me for my answer.
"Well first I went outside. Then Jake came. We might have kissed. Then-"
"WHAT?" Kat yelled. If the music wasn't so loud, everyone would have heard.
I just laughed. "Yup. But I told him I wasn't interested..He's my ex, and I'm kind of over him. Plus I don't know him very well now." The girls nodded like they were waiting for me to say more. "That's basically it. Then I went out to sit in the car for a bit but Daniel came and brought me back in."
"Where is Daniel anyways? I've barely seen him all night!" Jenny asked, looking around.
"He went over.." I looked around for a minute and then pointed to our left, "Over there." Jenny smiled and walked off to find him. Kat, Jordane and I talked about some random things for a while. It was my first time drinking at a party and I went a little overboard. Honestly, I didn't remember the rest of the night.
