My Paradise

Chapter 16

Skylar's POV
Today was going to be a good day. I could feel it. I woke up next to Marcus. The sun hitting his dark brown hair. I started to play in it. He opened one eye and peeped a look at me and closed his eyes again. "Your staring at me." He said in his sleepy voice. It was so sexy. "I couldn't help myself" I whispered. He groaned and turned his back to me. I climbed over him and laid my head on his back. "You can't ignore me" I said playing with his hair once more. He flipped back over and climbed on top of me. "I hate it when your right." "To bad. I'm always right" I said smiling. He kissed me deeply. It felt amazing. "Don't we have people to meet?" I asked. He sighed. We both got up. I head downstairs to make breakfast. He went into the shower. I made s'more pancakes. He came down with no shirt on and his wet hair dropping onto his abs. I bit my lip trying to control myself. I grab some pancakes and sat down on the couch. I turned the tv on to see what was in. Nothing as usual. I finished my breakfast and went upstairs to shower up. I pull out a red sleeveless crop top with a 36 on it. Some light wash jean shorts and my white converse. I grab a cream colored sweater to complete the outfit.

(Outfit above is what Skylar is wearing.)
I decide to take Baridi for a walk before it was time for me and Marcus to go meet his friends. I took him down by the beach. It was a beautiful day. When we got back I called out for Marcus but got no answer. I went upstairs and heard the sink running. I opened the door but he wasn't in there. I didn't think anything of it. I sat on the bed waiting for Marcus when out of nowhere something grabbed my feet from under my bed. I screamed and Marcus popped out. "That's for waking me up!" He said laughing. I punch him in the shoulder and walk downstairs. He came down and hugged me me from behind." I'm sorry for scaring you." He said. I jut nodded and we left. When we finally got there, there was a big house. It was huge. There was 3 cars in the driveway. We walked up to door and Marcus opened it. "Jake! Alissa! I'm back!" Marcus yelled out. A blonde headed kid walked up to me and Marcus.
"You must be Skylar. We've heard so much about you. Mainly cuz this one won't shut up about you. I'm Jake" the boy introduced himself. Then out of nowhere a blonde girl came running down the stairs. When she finally made it she hugged me really tight." OMG! It's so great to finally meet you. Being stuck in this house full of boys it get pretty annoying after awhile." "I know the feeling. I have three brothers at home" "See she gets it!" She said yelling at Jake. I giggled. "Well c'mon. I'll take you on a house tour" Marcus said. He took my hand showed me around. There was awesome. I saw Lucas and Marcus's room. It was very plain but acceptable. "Neels is probably traveling somewhere. He's a model and a DJ so he rarely here. Aj is probably by the piano..." "YOU GUYS HAVE A PIANO!" I said cutting him off. I loved playing the piano. My sister taught me along with singing. We would just play different chords and harmonize to them. Marcus showed me to the piano. I played A Thousand Years. When I started singing I felt amazing. I haven't really sung or played the piano since Luna's death. But it felt good. While I was singing I hear someone harmonizing with me. I look up and see a browned hair boy. We complete the song and everyone started clapping. "You must be Aj. You are really talented" I said complimenting his voice." Me? You are the talented one." He said. I started to blush. "I didn't know you could sing." Marcus said. "I used to sing all the time until..." I started to cry. Marcus hugged me." It's okay. You don't have to talk about it." He said." No it's okay. My older sister Luna taught me. She actually taught me a lot. She taught me how to act, sing, and dance." Marcus's eyes lit up." You can dance?" He asked me. I nodded. Then I hear You Was Right. Marcus stepped out of my way. I started dancing. At the need I did a head spin and a back hand spring. Everyone's jaw dropped. I looked at them raising my eyebrow. "I'm a little rusty but..." "RUSTY?! THERE WAS NO RUST ON THAT!" Marcus said really excitedly. Alissa came up and hugged me again. "Another talent female! Yay" I giggled. I had really hit off with Marcus's friends. But he had got really quiet. I walked over to him. "Is everything okay?" I asked concerned. "The whole Sebastian situation keeps replaying in my head. I want to forgive him but after what he did... I don't know if I can" he says. I lean my head on his shoulder." He seems like a good guy. I understand he hurt you and your family but did you ever ask him why?" "No after the incident I stop talking to him completely." "We maybe if you knew why he did it you could forgive him" "Yeah maybe" he said. " How about we all go do something. I heard there was a party at the pier. Let's go" I said trying to lift his spirit. He smiled faintly. "Sure. Why not." He replied. "Good but I have to go change. I'll see if Alissa has an outfit I can borrow. I walk upstairs to knock on her door. "Come in" I hear through the door. "Hey there's a party down at the pier. Me and Marcus were gonna go. Your welcome to come. Do you have and outfit I can borrow and outfit?" I ask. She got up to look in her closet." Here. Try this." She gave me the following outfit minus the green jacket.
