Lovestruck {Joey Graceffa Fan Fic}

Chapter 13

"I kinda want ice cream." I hear Sydney say flatly. We are now all laying on the beach under the bright sun. My shorts have dried so I put them back on. I left my shirt off to tan a bit.

I laugh. "I really do too." I'm a sucker for sweets. "You wants some Kalel?"

"Why not!" I smile and sit up. "I'll get them, whatcha want?"

"Vanilla cone."

"Same."

"Ok three vanilla cones then" I get up and grab my wallet and slip on my shirt.

I walk along the smooth wooden surface searching for an ice cream place.

I find a place and get the three cones. The women hands me a cardboard holder, that will hopefully prevent any damage from my clumsiness.

I walk out to the board walk. I hear a conversation from behind me.

"I'm worried man, I keep calling and I don't know. She said something about the beach-"

The person who is speaking suddenly rams into me. I stumble forward, hitting the ground, but manage to keep the ice cream alive.

I look up, confused to see a male with long dark hair. I laugh standing and brushing myself off. "I didn't know I had to look both ways before crossing the boardwalk."

I hear him chuckle, "I'm sorry, at least the ice cream is safe."

"Yeah-" I see another male next to him. it's Joey!

"Claire are you okay?" I hear him ask.

"Claire? are you with Kalel? she won't answer her phone." I hear Anthony say.

"Uh yeah I'm with her, don't worry she's fine. Funny meeting you here though. You must be Anthony."

I smile at Joey and he flashed a smile back.

"Yeah! are you with Kalel though?"

I look down and grab the ice cream. "Uh come on. I'll take you to them."

We walk down to the beach. I notice the ice cream dripping down the tray. I walk a little faster.

We reach them and Kalel sits up.

"Babe! joey! Claire a guy just came and told us about the fireworks tonight!"

"I guess we could stay-"

"Babe you never answered your phone. I was worried sick."

"Oh, I'm so sorry!"

"Yeah ok." I hear him reply flatly.

"Babe-"

"Come on let's just go okay?"

"Uh okay, I'm tired anyways."

I watch her get up gloomily. "I'll text ya girl!" I hear her say to Sydney.

"Okay, will do! byee."

"Joey you want us to drive?"

"Uh I think I'll stay, Sydney you think you can take me home later?"

"Course!" Sydney replied cheerfully.

"Okay! Thanks!"

Kalel hugs me and Sydney, then Joey. "Bye! I had fun!"

I wave, "bye."

They walk away. I'm kind of worried was he mad at her? was it my fault because I was the one on the beach?

Then as if reading my mind I hear Joey, almost whispering, speak into my ear. "He's just scared. He was really worried about her. He loves her, don't sweat it."

I turn to see him face to face. "Thanks." I pause. "I feel a little better now, but what if it was my fault? I was the one on shore-"

"Hey. Come on. Your stressing over nothing. Let's go walk the boardwalk, the beach is getting cold. It's kinda late."

"Ok" I smile and follow him to the boardwalk.
