David's POV
2:49 pm

I was shooting stuff for my vlogs with Alex at the apartment. I tried to put all of my energy into shooting the vlog but I couldn't wait to text Dylan and see her again. A part of me regrets kissing her, but at the same time I don't. I'm just so confused. I hadn't had feelings for someone in a long time.
I had my camera in my right hand and I was laughing at a joke that Alex made when my phone buzzed.
I checked my phone and Dylan's name flashed on the screen.
"Who are you texting?" Alex teased
I must have smiled when I saw her name.
"No one." I rolled my eyes.
I continued shooting the bit for my vlog, I didn't want Alex to know I was texting her. I like to keep my relationship stuff to myself.
After I got a few clips, I put my camera away and took a break. I sat on the couch and checked my phone to see what Dylan said.

Dylan: you left your jean jacket at my house.

I smiled at the text and responded.

David: I'll get it when I pick you up.

Dylan: when are you picking me up?

David: three thirty.

Dylan: okay, see ya soon.

I was so eager to see her again. When I'm with her it feels like everything's okay. Like all the stress I have is gone. She made my chaos into organized chaos. She was such a light.

I was already wearing swim trunks since I was gonna pick her up soon. I was so excited to just talk to her again.

"David are you good?" Alex laughed.
I must have been smiling while I was staring off into space.
"Yeah." I responded
"Who texted you?" Alex asked
"Someone, it doesn't matter." I said
"Aww does David have a boyfriend?" Alex teased
"Oh yeah." I joked
"No seriously who were you texting." Alex asked.
"I made plans with Dylan, my friend." I confessed
"Ooo David's going on a date." Alex joked
"Dude, shut up. I knew you were gonna say something dumb like that." I laughed.
I checked the time and realized I had to pick up Dylan soon.
"I gotta go, I'll probably see you tomorrow." I said to Alex as I walked out the apartment door.
I walked down the hallway and to the elevator. After that I headed to the parking garage and got in my Tesla and headed to Dylan's place. I had to post a vlog for tomorrow so I brought my camera and my laptop so I could shoot and edit stuff while I was at the beach. I'm really stressed out about going to the beach, I could be shooting stuff with Jason or doing something crazy to Natalie's room, but instead I'm going to the beach with Dylan. But I couldn't pass up an opportunity to spend more time with her, even if it means I'll miss out on filming some vlog footage. I'm kind of afraid of having feelings for this girl. She seems so closed off. Her and I seem like opposites. But I met her for a reason. She makes me happy in a way that I've never really felt. And all I wanna do is make her happy like she makes me happy.
I care about her, a lot.
I analyzed my feelings as I drove to Dylan's place.
I parked in the parking garage and texted her to let her know that I was here to pick her up. My palms began to sweat as a result of the nervous feeling building up in my stomach. I sat in my car and basked in my thoughts. I thought about if I really liked this girl or if I was just afraid of being alone, if I just missed kissing someone to wake them up, or cuddles in bed. I thought about if I should talk about the kiss, or if I should let it be. I eventually came to terms with my situation and decided that I would just let whatever happens happen.
Just then I saw her walking toward my car with a smile on her face. Her smile seemed to have no flaws. She was wearing a t-shirt that was tied up, my denim jacket was draped across her shoulders, with a pair of black high waisted shorts, with her swimsuit underneath her outfit. Her hair was wrapped up in a bun perfectly. She also had a bag across her shoulder. She opened the car door and sat down in the passengers seat.
"Hi." I said softly
"Hey." She replied, followed by a giggle.
"You ready for the beach?" I asked excitedly.
"Yeah." She laughed.
Her and I listened to music on our way to the beach. She showed me some of her favorite songs, and I showed her some of mine. All I could do was smile. I vlogged her singing along to some of her favorite throwback songs. I loved every moment of this car ride. We chatted along the way too, mostly about her because that's all I wanted to hear about. She made me feel like I could trust her, and she could trust me too. It was incredible.
We arrived at the beach as the sun was setting.
We got out of the car and headed to the water. I had my laptop and camera in my hands.
"Look at the sky." She said admiring the golden sunset that danced across the sky.
"Its pretty." I said looking at the view as our feet sunk into the sand.
We found a place to set our stuff down. She spread a blanket on the ground to we could leave our stuff there. I laid my computer and camera down. She set her bag down.
"You wanna go in the water?" She asked.
"Sure, it's gonna be fucking cold." I said
She took off her clothes, she was left only in her swim suit. I couldn't even explain how gorgeous she was to me.
I slipped my shirt off. I didn't really like taking my shirt off in front of people, but I trusted her a lot. Maybe more than I should've. Her and I walked to the water and allowed for the waves to engulf or feet.
"I haven't swam in the ocean for so long." She smiled as we walked further into the water.
"Same here." I chuckled.
We walked waist deep. The cold water shocked my limbs.
"Holy shit." She shivered in response to the cold water.
"I told you it would be cold." I laughed.
The waves crashed across our shoulders. It was perfect. She looked perfect.
"I love this so much." She said excitedly.
"Me too." I smiled
Her smile dropped when she peered at her right hand.
"What is it?" I asked looking at her hand.
"I must have lost my ring in the water." She said with a slightly sad look.
I felt so bad, I wanted to help her.
"I'll find it." I offered
"Don't bother, the water probably swallowed it up." She said
"No harm in checking." I shrugged
I filled my lungs and plunged my head under the water. I opened my eyes to see if I could find the ring. My vision was blurry and I could only make out certain shapes. The salt water was painful in my eyes and they were stinging. I desperately ran my fingers through the rippled sand at the bottom of the water, in search of her jewelry, this went on for a good while. I don't think I've ever held my breath for so long. I looked up to the surface of the water, the setting sun fell through the waves, it was so pretty. I focused my attention to the sand again, trying to find her ring. My chest starting hurting from the lack of air. I could hear my heart beat in my ears. I needed oxygen badly. I felt Dylan shake my shoulder to make sure I was okay. I swatted her hand away, determined to find her ring. My head was sore and throbbing. I felt as if it could explode. Suddenly all I could see was red veined clotted dark. Scared, I swam upward and broke the surface. I inhaled sharply, finally taking in the much needed air.
"Are you okay?" She asked quickly.
I had gotten a bloody nose from holding my breath for so long. I felt weak and dizzy, my head was pulsing. I licked my lips, I didn't know if it was blood or salt water I tasted.
"I couldn't find it." I spoke, breathing heavily.
"It's all right." She said placing her hand on my shoulder.
I looked into her eyes as she looked up at me. This moment was absolutely perfect. She placed her hand on my jaw and kissed me. My heart jumped. When she pulled away she had gotten my blood on her face. It looked as if she had a bloody nose too. I scooped water from from the cold sea and splashed it into my face, trying to remove the blood. Dylan wiped the blood off of her own face as well. I felt light headed, I wanted to lie down. I rubbed my temple.
"Are you okay?" She repeated her question from earlier
"Dizzy. My head hurts" I responded.
We both walked out of the chilled water. I laid down on the blanket and she sat next to me, running her fingers through my hair in attempt to sooth my head ache.
"I brought something that might help your headache." She mentioned
"What?" I asked, sitting up.
She reached into her bad and pulled out a bottle of Hennessy.
My eyes widened.
"Where in the fuck did you get that?" I laughed
"I have my ways." She said opening the bottle and taking a swig. She wiped her mouth and handed me the bottle.
"Oh god, I'm such a fucking lightweight." I laughed and then took a shot. I scrunched my nose.
We talked for a while and drank a lot. It didn't take long for me to get tipsy. Soon we were both a little drunk and laying together on this blanket, looking at the stars appear across the darkening sky, and listening to the ambient waves. After we talked for a little, I wanted to tell her how I felt. I feel like if I didn't I'd die, maybe that's just the alcohol thinking for me.
"I think I like you a little. Do you like me back?" I said chuckling a bit.
"I don't think so." She responded
My heart sank.
"Wanna kiss anyway?" I spoke without thinking.
"Sure." She agreed. 
I got in top of her slightly and connected my lips with hers. Kissing her was like doing ecstasy. A part of me knew this was going no where, but I've never wanted something so badly. The kiss deepened. Her lips parted allowing me to slip my tongue in her mouth. Before we did anything else I pulled away and just looked into her eyes, I wanted to take a second and just be with her before we continued.

Dylan's POV                          

"You are really pretty." His slurred voice cracked.
It was kinda cute. But even drunk me knew I had to tell him my real age at some point
"Thanks." Is all I managed to say.
He put his lips on mine again. I loved it, and I hated myself for it. I didn't want to catch feelings for someone I knew I couldn't have. I'm so petrified of getting hurt again. His tongue entered my mouth, and mine in his in vice versa. Kissing him felt good, better than good. But I knew this would be the last time I'd do something like this with him. I can't let this go too far before I tell him the truth. I just hope after I tell him, he'll still wanna do wild, stupid, fun stuff with me. Because he's a good guy, he really is, but I don't do relationships and I don't think someone as busy as him should either.
He kissed down my neck, causing goosebumps to form on my skin. He nipped at the skin on my neck, surely he would be leaving purple love bites all over me. I stopped him and brought his lips back to mine. I kissed him once before moving my lips to his collar bone and sucking his skin. I rained kisses up his neck leaving a trail of hickeys from his collar bone to his jawline.
He kissed my lips again and started to move his hand down my body. A sense of fear fell through me.
"We can't!" I pulled away and pushed his shoulder slightly.
"It's okay. We don't have to sleep together if you don't want to." He said softly, drunkenly looking into my eyes.
"I'm seventeen!" I blurted out.
"Ha ha very funny." He said sarcastically, leaning back into the kiss.
"David, I'm seventeen." I assured him I was telling the truth.
He stared at me for a second, still on top of me. He suddenly got up quickly.
"Dylan what the fuck." He sat with his knees to his chest. He didn't look at me, he stared at the water.
"I'm sorry I should've-"
"Yeah no shit!" He cut me off
We both paused for a moment. Processing what we had just done.
"What if we fucked?! I could've gone to jail!That's fucked up Dylan!" He said while enraged.
"I know, I fucked up." I responded
We didn't speak for a minute or two. We both just watched the waves crash as the moonlight sparkled off of the reflective water.
"I'm going home. I'll drive you back to your apartment." He said making sure not to look at me.
"David I'm sorry." I said.
"Just stop." He spoke so softly, I could barely hear him.
"You can't drive, we're fucking plastered." I explained.
He covered his face with his hands.
"Fuck. I'm so fucking stressed out. Dylan- why like, why the fuck did you let me do that? Why'd you lie? Do you like me or something?" He asked
"No I just didn't want you to think I was immature." I expained
"Well now I think you're even more immature. Mature people don't lie about their age." He had anger in his voice.
"I know I'm so sorry." I said, hugging him to try and make things better.
"Get off of me, please." He pushed me away.
"Oh so you're gonna treat me differently cause you know I'm seventeen." I said
"Yeah, you're just a fucking kid. I can't believe you let me kiss you, I was about to do other stuff too, that's so not fucking cool Dylan." He said, running his hands through his hair.
"David look, I didn't like you like that anyway. I don't want this to change our friendship. Please." I begged
"I liked you." He stared at the ground
"But you're seventeen." He continued
"I'll be eighteen in like two months."
"Doesn't change the fact that you lied, let's just go sleep in the Tesla, I don't wanna talk about this any more." He said, getting up and picking up  his stuff.
We both gathered out things and put them in his car. Him and I sat in his car and did our best to try and sleep. I hated myself for potentially ruining something that could have been everything. This could have been the rest of my life.
