Before We Collide...

#13 Off to the beach- Part 1

After Caleb finally calmed down from his little over-exciting moment, he got down from the table and everybody agreed to leave for the beach in an hour. The girls squealed and dragged me up the stairs towards my bedroom and have since been running around my room trying to fix me up so that I could and I quote "Look sexy enough to knock Damian's socks off". I just shook my head and let them do their thing, that's what best friends are for right?

"Girls, we're just going to the beach and besides the water is going to wash everything away anyway so why try?" I questioned as they styled my hair into loose curls that cascaded down my back and rolled their eyes.

 "Hey, I saw that." I said and they giggled as they finally finished what they were doing.

"We are doing this, so that you could look-" 

"Look hot for Damian, I know, I know" I cut them short and stood up from my desk to stretch my legs. "He's not even going to notice me." I said as I put on the blue and white bikini they picked out for me. I don't know where it came from but it's cute so whatev's.

"Of course he's going to notice you. It's obvious he likes you and you're a couple now. We can all tell through the way he keeps looking at you that he's madly in love." Rebecca explained as Shanette nodded in agreement and handed me my white jean shorts and blue crop top. Oh right, they still don't know that this relationship or whatever we are, is fake.

"Yeah, it's like he wants to jump your bones every time he lays his eyes on you." Shanette commented and I groaned in embarrassment while pulling on my flip flops.

"Shan ! No ! He doesn't even see me as anything more than a friend. He told me so himself." I sighed as I sat down on my purple bed sheets. The girls joined me in my misery and wrapped their arms around me from both sides in support. "Well, he's an idiot and he can go screw himself for all we care." Rebecca replied as I rested my head on her shoulder and Shan hummed in response. Luckily they didn't ask any questions and I'm grateful for that.

"So today let's just have fun and you my girl are going to show off this smoking body off yours to all the other boys on the beach and when he gets jealous we'll know the truth that he hides behind those mysterious green eyes." Shanette said and slipped on my bracelet that my brother gave me for my 10th birthday. I smiled in loving memory and nodded along.

They're right. It's time I have fun for a change and forget all about Damian and his adorable smile and cute dimples that I've just noticed when I opened the front do-

No Sky! Forget about Damian and his adorable dimples ! Go live your life for a once !

"She so likes him. The drool situated on her cheek gives us evidence." I heard Becca reply behind me and they giggled as we walked downstairs towards the living room. I quickly wiped the corners of my mouth as a blush crept through my face. 

"I can see it now. First they fall in love and then they get married, have 10 children...Wait no. Ten is too much. But nine is too little and an uneven number so that doesn't make sense. Maybe eight, but that's too little too but it's an even number so it makes sense. Wait where was I? Oh yeah and then-" 

"Shanette!" I called out as we came to the end of the of the staircase. "Huh?" she asked in confusion walking towards the living room. "You were rambling on again." Rebecca explained before I could and we all broke out into a laughing fit as she turned into our own little living tomato. Seems like we're all having the blushies today.

As we rounded the corner we could hear the boys talking and laughing among themselves as basketball played on the flat screen TV,located on the red wall above the brown bookshelf. That bookshelf held all the books my brother and I used to collect when we traveled around the world, from New York to Amsterdam. No, no waterworks Sky. Enjoy yourself today, remember?

"I'll tell her later. Just keep your mouths shut." Damian growled as I came in hearing distance. "Tell me what?" I asked as confusion played on my face and I took a seat next to Charming. "Finally, you girls are done!" Jason covered it up, but it wasn't like I was magically going to forget what he said. Was Damian in trouble? Maybe something happened with Stefan? 

"Beauty takes time babe." Rebecca stated casually and picked up the cooler holding our food and drinks from the ground. Jason was quick to take it from her and plastered a quick kiss on her lips before taking it to the car. "You tell him girlfriend!" Caleb commented, snapping his fingers side to side. I chuckled and my smile was quickly replaced by confusion as the thoughts about what Damian could possibly tell me rushed through my head.

Out of the corner of my eye I could see Caleb jumping onto Damian's back as they laughed and wrestled each other. "Get off you asshole." Damian stated and picked up the umbrella from the floor. Caleb gasped dramatically and put a hand over his heart mocking hurt. "Take that back you meanie! That's it, we're through !" He yelled and walked towards the front door.

Damian chuckled at his childish behaviour and turned towards me. "Hey, turn that frown upside down and get that pretty little ass in my car." He walked towards the porch and I closed the door behind me, hiding my smile as he snickered at my embarrassment.

"So it seems that there's too many off us to fit in Damian's Impala, so we're taking my car too." Jason stated and as soon as the word Impala registered in my mind, I almost lost my neck as quickly as it snapped. 

Oh my gosh ! 

It was the very same Impala Sam and Dean has on Supernatural. Let me tell you, he's not going to have this car any longer.

"W-where's your other car? How come you never told me you have a 67 Chevrolet Impala!" I freaked out and ran towards my baby. Damian chuckled and followed me down the stoned driveway towards his car as I checked it out in real life. This is literally the best day ever!

"Because I knew you'd freak out like this since your boyfriend Dean Winchester also owns one." Damian stated and hopped into this wonderous specimen. I rolled my eyes knowing he'd seen the million posters of my baby on the walls back in my room. When the car roared to life and Thunderstruck came blasting through the speakers I knew he also watched Supernatural.

What were we? First he tells our friends that we're dating and then he just completely does a 360  on me and calls me just a friend. I honestly wanted to ask him, but let it slide for now. I felt Damian's eyes watching me and as I turned to look at him the car came to a stop.

I frowned as I took in our surroundings and realised we weren't at the beach. "Where are we? Why did you stop?" Damian ran a hand through his hair in annoyance as his eyes made contact with mine and held an emotion that I couldn't decipher. He tucked a stray hair behind my ear that must have escaped earlier on and caressed my cheek as I closed my eyes in his embrace. I felt his minty breath on my lips as he leaned closer. My breath hitched as his nose touched mine and I could feel my heartbeat in my throat.

"You still haven't answered my question Hazel. Do I make you nervous?" He laid his forehead on mine and my eyes fluttered open as he kissed my nose. "Yes." I breathed out and he smirked as he leaned in to kiss me. Just as his lips brushed against mine, his phone rang and he growled in frustration as he pulled away. I cleared my throat and looked out the window to cover my tomato-like face.

What the hell just happened between us? See this is what I'm talking about. He does these things and it messes with my head. "Hmm. Yeah, I know. I can't talk right now. I have company.Just get it done !" I frowned as he shut off his phone and started the car again.

I turned my body to look at him as he stared at the road with a tense expression clouding his face."Who was that? Damian, is everything okay?" I asked and he just hummed in agreement without sparing me a second glance. Okay...ouch. I swear his moods is going to give me whiplash. I sighed and just nodded as I looked out the window towards the pathway full off dust and cracks that reflected my already broken heart.
