Last Dance

Chapter 3- The Bonfire

It's been about 2 weeks since the accident happened, You know, since Karly and Carson met.
Karly is at a bonfire on the beach with Loren and Luna and some other friends.
Karly's POV:
"Here, have another shot" Mark said while handing me a Jello Shot that honestly looked like blood.
I downed it. The song '2AM' came on.
"Oh my god. I freaking love this song!" I exclaimed. "It just makes me wanna..." I paused and looked over at Jordyn... She knew exactly what I was thinking. She jumped up and I jumped up and we both yelled. "DANCE!"
"Yo Jake. Turn it up!" Brandon yelled.
Jordyn and I moved away from fire and started dancing together.
After a few moments had passed I heard a voice from behind us.
"Ayeeee,"
I turned around. It was Carson.
It's like midnight. What the hell is he doing here???
He was with 1 other guy.
"Mind if we join you.?" He asked.
Jordyn looked at me, and then whispered in my ear "isn't that your new neighbor.?"
I looked at her and shook my head yes.
Brandon walked over "Is everything alright" he asked
"Yeah man, I was jus wantin to know if we could join you guys" Carson said, followed by "I'm Carson, this is Greg."
Greg waved.
Jordyn and I walked away.
"What the hell is he doing out here so late?!?" Jordyn excitingly whispered in my ear.
"I don't know?? But damn, his eyes are green" I said
Jordyn jus looked at me, in shock.
The three guys started to walk toward us.
"Oh please please please don't tell me Brandon said they could stay." I prayed
"I told em they could stay!!" Brandon announced. "they're gonna camp here with us tonight.
I looked up at Carson and his big grin, rolled my eyes, then looked away.
Jordyn went to go get something to eat so the spot next to me was empty. I guess Carson figured that was invitation to come make conversation with me.
I looked at him in disgust.
"What do you want" I asked him.
"Nice moves.." he scoffed.
"Yeah, thanks." I scoffed back
"You didn't let's finish. Nice moves... But I can do better"
I looked at him, waiting for the punchline on his joke.
"Oh.. OH. You weren't joking" I said surprised.
He grinned and shook his head.
"Well let's see dance boy. Show us what you got."
Luna, Jordyn, and Loren came over to us as Carson stood up.
They turned the music on and Carson started dancing.
In the process of dancing, he managed to lose his shirt, and somehow managed to hold it.
When he was finished everybody clapped except me. I gotta admit, he was good. I handed him his shirt, "not bad" I said, and turned around and walked off.

I went to the edge of the water, it was a full moon.
I wanted to take a picture. As I was standing out there, Carson popped up.
"Do you follow me everywhere?" I asked him.
"I can't help it. I like to see cute things"
I jus looked over at him and smiled then turned back to the moon.
"It's beautiful, isn't it?" He asked me.
"Yeah... I love it." I said. He turned towards me, and grabbed my hand. I wanted to jerk away, but I couldn't. For some reason it felt right.
Then he grabbed my face and kissed me...
That felt even more right....
Hopefully nobody saw that
I prayed silently, as we looked out into the distance.
