Love At Second Sight

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Perfect

How many of you are surprised?! Haha, I decided that the whole Lucy-Jonah-Mason situation needed some more explaining :)
Enjoy:

Well, I guess things didn’t turn out exactly as planned.

  I had expected a really nice, calm vacation now that all tension had been ‘thrown away’. Boy, I was totally wrong. Now, when I’d walk in the hallways of the hotel and walk past Jonah, who was no longer my hotel room roommate, he’d glare at me. It didn’t seem as if him forgiving me was an option that was going to happen anytime soon.

  I couldn’t imagine how horrible it would be once we got back to the apartment in three days and I’d have to see Jonah every single hour of the day. I felt as if I was back to square one with him again. It was like I was just avoiding him once more. This time though, he had been added to the avoiding action.

  This morning Harlow had texted us all saying that she was challenging us to a volleyball tournament on the beach. I put on a tank top and my jean shorts and made my way to the beach, which was right in front of the hotel. Once I arrived, I discovered my friends in front of a set up volleyball net and to my surprise an unrecognizable man who was holding hands with Jessie as she leaned into him. I was guessing this was the guy that ended the relationship between Jessie and Mason: Tristan Joannie.

  “We’re all here!” Harlow noticed happily. She walked towards her lime green beach bag and took out a yellow volleyball. “First let’s make teams.”

  We had made equal teams of six. On my team I was with Drew, Peyton, Mason, Tristan and Jessie. This left Jonah, McKinley, Maven, Harlow, Lucas and Jared on the other team.

  My team started off with the ball. Mason currently had it in his hands. “Alright!” He said as he started to get into position. “You’re going down!” He yelled to the other team.

  Five out of six of them smiled, leaving Jonah frowning as if there were no tomorrow.  I hadn’t seen his face light up ever since he caught me almost kissing his best friend. Every time I thought about what I had done, I felt as if my heart was being squeezed. It was just a horrible feeling. The worst I had ever felt.

  Mason served the ball and it went over the net towards Harlow. Harlow passed it to Lucas, who then got it over the net to our side. Jessie got the ball and passed it over to Drew. Drew hit the ball as hard as he could and it went over the net.

  Our opposing team all went to get the ball. However, they were too slow since it had already hit the soft sand.

  Peyton ran up to Drew and cried out happily, “You got it!” She pecked his lips quickly, causing his ears to go red and everyone else’s jaws to drop.

  Harlow walked right up to them and pointed. “Wha-what’s going on here?” She asked them happily.

  Drew wrapped his arm around Peyton’s waist and kissed the top of her head. She put her arms around his neck and smiled. “Oh, just a little something-something,” She told everyone.

  “What?!” Jessie exclaimed. “Is there actually something going on here?”

  The happy couple smiled. “I think so,” Drew replied. “What do you think, Peyton?”

  “There’s definitely something going on,” She said.

  Mason hit the ground, looked up to the sky and threw his hands in the air. “Finally!” He cheered.

  Everyone laughed (besides a certain unhappy person) and then we got back to our game. I started off with the ball and I hit it over to the other side. Maven got it and passed it over to Jonah, who then leapt up into the air and sent the ball flying towards now standing Mason. The ball hit Mason smack in face, leaving a little bit of a red mark.
