Chapter 38

I know that I didn't post a chapter Yesterday. You can see the whole story of why on my message board! 

I would really love if you were to click that star and leave a comment about how you think the story is going so far! Should Theresa try this new thing with Crew or stick it out for the long run with Logan?

"Alright. Alright. Alright. Maybe we should go home now." Alyssa says as she throws her seventh bottle into the waste bin. I pull my phone from my pocket and see that the time was 3:30 am. I quickly chug the remainder of the Blue Moon in my hand and throw it into the growing waste basket.

I look over at Crew, who is talking to Haiden who is continuously taking drinks from a bottle. "Crew." I say as Alyssa puts her hand on my shoulder. "I should probably take her home before she gets angry." I whisper the last word.

Alyssa opens her mouth wide. "Angry?" I laugh at her inability to sound angry. "I don't get angry!" She proclaims as she puts her hand back onto my shoulder.

I look back to Crew and smile. He returns the smile. "Yeah. The perks of being the designated driver." He says as he points to the two girls looking amazed at their own bathing suit designs that twist into knots in the middle. I look back at him and smile as he picks up a lone bottle on the sand and throws it into the bin. "Good night Theresa."

His words caught me off guard. "Good night Crew." I turn Alyssa around and start heading towards the townhouse. The way he said my name as we said goodbye made me think of Logan. The one person I was trying to forget. I reached for my phone and saw there were six new messages. I slid the notification off the screen and continued to walk back towards the townhouse. If Crew called I would not hesitate picking up. I needed to get my head clear of ever thinking of Logan as more than a really good friend.
