•Still Elise's POV•

We laid next to each other in silence, while we stared at the stars for a while. Gerard sat up as we heard a car rolling in to the near parking lot. He shuffled over close to the shore with his hands in his front pockets. He waved the other guys down and he walked back with his head down- his hair covering his face.

Ray was the first to make it in. He grabbed his shirt and sat next to me.

"How ya doing, Elise?"

"Oh, I think I'll be okay for now," I smiled. Gerard was standing with his back to us, his head still hanging.

Mikey snuck up behind his brother, preparing to surprise him with a wet hug. When he jumped into Gerard's backside, I was expecting him to jump or laugh and push his brother off of him.

Instead Gerard just stood still while his brother slowly stopped laughing, realizing his brother wasn't responding. What was up with him?

All of the guys started to throw on their shirts and Ray and Mikey began to walk towards Frank's car. Frank was still gathering his junk and Gerard was still kinda blankly standing there.

I decided I should get up and get my stuff ready to go, but when I tried to stand up, I fell on the hard sand once again. Gerard snapped out of his zoning and rushed to my side. Frank ran over too.

"What happened now?!" Frank yelled.

"She's too weak to stand. After all she's been through, I can't believe that she can even breathe," Gerard whispered in response to Frank, but I don't think he heard. I don't know, maybe he did. Because he did shut up after that.

"Can I help?" Frank asked specifically to Gerard, who was now helping me off the ground.

"Nah, I got it," Gerard returned calmly. Frank didn't seem too happy.

For the second time today, Gerard carried me to the car, 'bridal style'. Frank walked next to us, carrying our towels and junk. He didn't seem so excited. I probably wouldn't if I was made the 'pack mule'.

I nestled my head into Gerard's chest.

"Thanks Gee. For everything," I whispered. I could see a hint of a smile flash across his face before we reached the car, then it disappeared.

Frank watched us climb in the car, Gerard helping me into my seat. Frank looked totally jealous at the moment. Was he really that jealous? I thought he liked Jamia? He turned around and climbed into the passengers seat next to his mom.

"So how was the beach?" Franks mom turned around to see us all.

"It was fine," Frank said sharply, indicating he didn't want to talk about it anymore. So much for his usual giggly self. He'll get over it.

"You all look out of it," his mom remarked, chuckling slightly.

"Let's just say we were wiped out, literally," I whispered the 'literally' part to Gerard and that seemed to lighten his mood a little.

Even tough it was only a ten minute drive home, I fell asleep on Gee's shoulder. He woke me up when we pulled up to Ray's house. Ray hopped out of the sliding door before

it even finished opening.

"Bye guys! See you all tomorrow! Feel better Elise!" he waved as he ran to his front door. I sat up.
