Chapter 57 - Beach Days

"Oh my god I haven't been here in forever" I said as we got out of the car.

"Me neither" Faith agreed with me.

"I don't like it" Stokeley complained as he got out. I looked back at him and giggled. He rolled his eyes at me and shoved me lightly and playfully.

Right now we just got to the beach. Faith and I somehow convinced the guys to come with. It's me, her, Jahseh, Stokeley, Craig and Trunks. We couldn't get anyone else to come, but it's okay. Coolie may meet us here too. He said he'd think about it, but I think it's a no.

"It's such a nice day. How could we not?" I said as I admired the view of the ocean as we all walked. I grabbed onto Jahsehs hand.

"I never come here. Not because I hate it, it's just not something I do" He told me. I nodded understanding.

I looked around at all the people as we walked to find somewhere to put our stuff down. I remember I used to get so jealous of all the people that would be here smiling and genuinely happy having fun. I used to wish that was me. I don't feel that same way anymore though. I'm actually happy now.

As we stopped walking, I looked over at my friends. Damn I got lucky to find genuine people. We put our things down and through this, Jahseh never let go of my hand. I looked over at him and watched as he looked around at everyone.

His eyes wandered back over to me and he just stared back at me. We just stood admiring one another. My cheeks started to get pink since his heavy stare was making me feel a little insecure since I only got my bathing suit top and shorts on. I looked away and let go of his hand. I put my back down on Faiths towel next to her bag.

"This ain't working" Stokeley said with a laugh as the water washed over my name that Jahseh is trying to write in the sand for me.

"Let's move up a little" Jahseh suggested so me, him, Faith, and Stokeley moved up a few feet. Craig and Trunks left to go get food so it's just us. We watched as Jah wrote my name in the sand with his foot. "There" He said proudly as he stepped back. I quickly took a picture of it. I used to do this every time I came to the beach. I don't know why. It was just something I did. I posted the picture to my Instagram story then locked my phone.

"Ima go back up there. Y'all coming?" Stokeley asked us. I shook my head.

"I am" Faith told him.

"Wait take my phone with you" I said then handing Faith my phone before they walked away. I faced the water and looked over at Jahseh. He was looking at the ocean too. I grabbed his hand making him look over at me and a small soft smile came across his face. I stared into his eyes just admiring them. Every time I look into his eyes I feel safe and secure.

"Ima throw you in the ocean" Jahseh joked as he let go of my hand. I pushed him playfully.

"You're crazy" I said with a laugh then looked back at the ocean. It's so pretty. Suddenly, Jahseh picked me up. I gasped and wrapped my arms around his neck. He had a devious smile on his face.

"Ready?" He asked and started walking into the water a little more.

"Stop" I said laughing. He pretended like he was going to throw me and I held on tighter. "Jahseh!" I yelled while we both laughed. He did it again then put me down. "I hate you" I joked and then kicked in the water making him get splashed.

"I'm sure you do" He said with a smile and splashed me back. "I'm glad you brought me here. I didn't think I'd enjoy it as much as I am" He told me making me smile a little wider. I nodded.

"I'm happy you're having fun" I faced the ocean again and felt the small waves hit my legs. Jahseh came up behind me and wrapped his arms around me. I leaned against him.

"I mean I don't really like the sand that much, but I like the water" he said making me laugh.

"I agree actually"

"So are you and Wifi okay?" I heard him ask. I turned a little so I can look at him. I shrugged.

"Yeah. I guess. I mean it's been weird, but we aren't fighting" I answered him. He nodded slowly. "Why?"

"We were talking about that whole situation last night. He still feels so bad. He thinks you won't forgive him and you just fixed things so there aren't problems in the house. He feels like shit about it" Jahseh explained to me.

"I do forgive him. I don't want him to beat himself up over it" I said sighing. Maybe me and Isaiah should have actually talked it out.

"You should tell him then"

"We're home losers who didn't come with us!" Stokeley yelled as we walked into the house. Everyone laughed loudly. I walked in after him and saw Coolie and Isaiah standing by the back door. I guess they were going outside.

"How was the beach?" Coolie asked us.

"Honestly fun" Craig answered him.

"Yeah for real" Trunks agreed.

"Y'all should have came" Jahseh told them.

"I ain't into the beach" Isaiah said shrugging.

"Neither am I. But it wasn't bad" Stokeley said back. I walked up to Isaiah and wrapped my arms around his torso, hugging him.

"What's up?" Isaiah asked as he hugged me back. I looked up at him without moving my arms. He was looking down at me confused.

"I wasn't lying when I said I forgive you and I feel like you didn't believe me" I told him.

"Honestly no because I was being an asshole" he said back truthfully.

"I forgive you Isaiah. For real for real" I said making him smile a little bit.

"Alright alright enough of holding each other" I heard Jahseh then felt his hands on my shoulders pulling me back. Everyone started to laugh including me and Jahseh. I faced him and cupped his face in my hands.

"I'm all yours" I said before kissing him. I pulled away then faced everyone again. I grabbed the backwoods from Coolies hand.
