Seth's POV

"Bro you need to come home! Aunt Mel is going crazy over here." Hayden looked frustrated and distraught. His hair was messed up , his tie was a bit lose . His sleeves were rolled up , and he seemed like he haven't slept for days.

Well , that was what I expected from my mother . She wanted me to come back , because she was throwing a party-for Hayden becoming a part of Clavane Industries . And as a younger brother and a heir , I had to be there .

"Dude I can't come , not now ." , I said with a small sigh .

"Then deal with your mother yourself ! I'm tired of covering your ass every now and then ." He said curtly , and went offline. I shut my laptop angrily , ran my hand through my hair in frustration .

"You okay ?" I heard a familiar soft voice. I turned my head , and saw Lauren-with a concerned look on her pretty face . She was wearing an over sized sweat shirt and shorts . Her hair was tied up in a messy , what do they call it-a bun ?

"Yeah , I'm fine ." I finally spoke . She made her way to the front , and sat beside me .

"I was wondering when are you going back , you know... back to Connecticut ?"

I raised my brows , "Why ? Do you want me to leave ?"

"No ! I didn't mean like that !" She exclaimed . "I mean , I just wanted to know . That's it ." , she shrugged .

"Then I'll be leaving in three days ." , I said making up my mind .

"Three days ?" She said as if she was confirming what she heard. 

"I can stay , if you want me to ." I smirked.

"Uh . No . Three days are fine ."

That broke my heart .

"Okay , you only have three days-why don't we have some fun ?"

"What fun ?"

"You've never been here before ; so lets just give you a little tour ."

"Sounds good ." , she smiled .

I returned her smile . She stood , and went upstairs . I just sat there-probably for an hour or so ; mesmerized by the beauty that Lauren held . Her smile ,  the  freckles on her cheeks-everything was perfect about her . Even if I had to just stare at her all day long , I would gladly do it .

"So , where are we going?" I asked politely to Lauren , as I buckled my seatbelt .

"Ask this question once again , and I'll throw you out of my car!" She spoke .

Wild much .

"It was just a question ." I shrugged .

"Which you asked for the hundredth time ." I saw her , rolling her eyes .

I didn't speak then , after all-she was the tourist guide for me ; as she would be leading me around the entire place . She drove us down to the Malibu beach , after quite a long drive , we finally came to a halt . The sun was shining brightly , the weather was amazing ;  around me were so many sexy ladies-but trust me , my eyes were on that one girl . Thank God there weren't many people as I was expecting here to be . She held my hand , and dragged us to the quieter part of the beach . I heard her say, "It's beautiful isn't it ?"

"Yeah ." , I said , staring at her-instead of looking at at the blue sea . I moved my gaze from her before she could catch me gazing at her , or else I would be doomed .
