"Catching Feelings (Part 2 to One Night Stand)"

"Drunk in Love"

It started to rain on their first day at the Maldives. People left the beach & started to head for shelter. The little bungalows were soon filled with tourists wanting to stay dry. Summer was already back at the villa & had talked herself into getting out of her relationship with Dylan. She wanted a fresh start & wanted to leave the past behind. She came to the realization that although she did love Dylan, that she wasn't ready to give him another chance. If they were meant to be, they would still be together. She battled within her mind whether she should forgive him or not. She sat on the dock in their outdoor shower/bathroom area looking at the water & the rain. It was quiet & peaceful. Totally opposite of what was raging in her mind & heart. She thought about Jay & felt bad for leaving him at the restaurant. She had a feeling that he loved her, but she was hoping she was wrong. She looked at her watch & wondered where he was. She heard the door knob jangle & turned to see Jay walking in. His head hung low & she could tell he's had a few too many drinks. He crashed on the water couch. She left her spot on the dock & walked to where he was.

Summer: Jay?
Jay: Summer, I'm so sorry.
Summer: Why are you sorry?
Jay: I'm sorry I'm not Dylan.
Summer: Ok, big guy. Let's get you to the bed.

She struggled to get Jay off of the floor, but somehow managed to.

Jay: I think I'm a little drunk.
Summer: A little? Come on, take your clothes off.
Jay: Are we going to have sex?
Summer: Um, no... we need to get you out of your wet clothes.
Jay: Oh, that was my second guess.

Summer giggled & helped him undress & got him some fresh new clothes.

Jay: You're so beautiful. No wonder Dylan loves you.

Jay reached for Summer face & hair. Summer held Jay's hand.

Summer: Let's not talk about Dylan anymore.

Summer fluffed the pillows & laid Jay down on the bed. She put the blankets over him & caressed his head.

Jay: You're so sweet. Why are you taking care of me?
Summer: Because you take care of me...
Jay: I love you so much.

Jay rolled around.

Jay: I'm crazy about you Summer.

Jay knocked out & started snoring. Summer looked at Jay, caressed his head & kissed his cheek. She shook her head as she went back to the hammock by the dock. The rain had stopped & Summer looked back at Jay who was still sleeping away. She left the villa to get them both something to eat. "He's gonna need to eat something once he wakes up", she thought.

About an hour later, Summer returned to the villa with paninis & other baked goods. She entered the villa & was confused when she didn't see Jay on the bed.

Jay: Hey angel face, I'm in here.

She walked over to the indoor mini pool & Jay was in the pool with two drinks in hand.

Summer: What do you think you're doing?
Jay: The best way to get over a hangover is to keep drinking.
Summer: I don't think so.

Summer took the drinks away.

Jay: Hey! One's for you.
Summer: I don't want it.
Jay: Come on... You're killing the fun. We came here to have fun, Summer. Besides, I'm not driving anytime soon.
Summer: Fine.

Summer gave Jay one of the drinks back.

Jay: Cheers! What's in the basket?
Summer: Food.
Jay: Why don't you come in & join me? The water's fine.

Summer lifted up one eyebrow.

Jay: There's no jellyfish in here, I promise.

Summer set the food on a platter & set it in front of Jay. She took off her swimsuit coverup. Jay couldn't keep his eyes off of Summer. She got in the pool. Jay looked at Summer & got closer to her. Summer backed up into the corner. Jay cornered her. They had a moment of looking into each other's eyes. Jay wanted Summer so bad, but he knew she didn't feel the same way about him.

Summer: You should probably eat something.

Jay backed away & got out of the pool & sat on the edge to eat.

Jay: Thanks for the food.
Summer: You're welcome.

Summer swam out of the pool.

Summer: How's your head?
Jay: It's been better. How's your back?
Summer: Still stinging, but the pains gone down.
Jay: So I booked a spa & a couples massage.
Summer: Couples massage?
Jay: What? It's the only massage they provide. No one comes here alone.
Summer: I guess. What are we doing tonight?
Jay: What do you want to do tonight?
Summer: I wanted to checkout the treehouse.
Jay: Treehouse?

Summer & Jay got ready for the evening. Summer slipped on a white mini dress. Jay wore khaki shorts & a white shirt. Jay was mesmerized by Summer as she was putting on makeup & doing her hair in the bathroom.

Jay: You don't need any of that stuff.
Summer: Stuff?
Jay: Yeah, all that makeup.
Summer: I beg to differ. I'm almost done. Don't worry.
Jay: I'm a patient guy. I can wait...

Jay continued to watch Summer & eyed her from her beautiful long hair down to her shoulders, then her hips, butt & legs. She was stunning. Jay realized that he had professed his love for her earlier that day. He had forgotten while he was a bit hungover, but it was all coming back to him. She wasn't avoiding him or acting weird so he wasn't worried about it. He wondered if he actually had a chance with her.
