♥Jenny's POV♥

Could this girl get any more annoying! Throughout our day at the beach, she acted so gloom. The more I asked her if she was alright or not, Casey would always reply with a simple, 'I'm fine'. Did she forget that I was a girl too? I know damn right that she was far from being fine. She was maybe really bipolar or something but something was really up.

We still managed to have lots of fun... surprisingly. I figured that she liked the water more than I did. We played a few pranks on persons we didn't know and barely got away with it. Please note, do not play sand fight. That sh*t hurts when the game gets a little too serious.

Overall, the beach wasn’t that bad, but Casey's disposition most of the time killed the mood.

Right now, I was getting prepared for Andrew to come pick me up. It was exactly 6:00 p.m. and I had no idea what to wear. James was helping me a few minutes ago but he's now on the phone with a 'friend'. Hmm I’m sure was a...‘Friend’. I called Tyler a few minutes ago and he was yet to arrive. The dude said that he would be here in no time, so, where was he?!

"Ugh!" Letting out a frustrated grunt, I plopped myself on the floor of my walk in closet. So this is how it is huh, when girls go out on dates...searching for something attractive to wear to impress their date, I thought to myself, looking around the little room.

There was nothing decent which I could have worn. I mean, I dressed like a guy most of the time and I didn't own anything too feminine. This search was useless and I was only realizing this now. All this time that I had wasted I could have gone to the store and had bought something appealing to the masculine eye.

"Jenny! Are you here?" I hear Ty's voice and I quickly beam. Yes, he'll know what to do, I thought.

"I'm in the closet Ty!" I shout back, getting onto my feet and began rummaging my clothes once more.

"Dang, what a mess... I’m glad I came quick," Tyler comments, stepping into the closet. I simply rolled my eyes and continued what I was doing. He saw my movements and rolled his eyes at me too. Being that he was Tyler, I simply ignored his gesture.

Just as I was about to reach for another outfit, I was pulled out of the closet. Ty dragged me to my room, lifts me up and drops me on my bed. I glare at him because he knew full well that this was no time to be fooling around!

"What the f*ck are you doing Ty?" I question in a calm manner. He knows that once I'm this calm that I will pounce at any second now.

"You, don’t even think about taking your aggravation out on me.” He snaps. Turning his back towards me he grabs a black plastic bag from my dresser. I was so distracted with what I was doing that I hadn't noticed this extra parcel in my room.

"What's in the bag?" I ask him curiously and he only smirks in response.

Opening the bag, he pulls out a pair of grey skinny-jeans, a red under top and a grey jacket. My mouth hangs to the floor because I couldn't imagine myself wearing something of that sort. Though my mind was off to another place right now, I couldn't help but think of one thing. Where is God's name could Tyler had gotten those clothes? Was this the reason he was late? Did he just buy those?

"I know what you must be thinking, and no, I did not just buy these. Apparently, this is the birthday gift, you, without a moment of hesitation, rejected." He replies, shrugging his shoulders and handing me the outfit. I didn't think twice about taking hold of the attire, because I was that desperate, and I then rush to my bathroom to change.

The sound of Ty's laughter erupted throughout my room as I did so. I didn't care how stupid I looked because Andrew would be here any moment now.

Hmm I wonder what Casey is doing right now? Oh my goodness, why was I even thinking about Casey in the first place. What the fuck was wrong with me?!

"You look like a ... girl." Those were the first words James and Ty greeted me with the moment I stepped down the stairs. It was true though, I did look kind of girly but I wasn't that bad. Was it?

"Thanks for the boost in my motivation guys," I comment flatly, approaching the sofa both boys were seated on. My clothes did feel weird because they won't 'me'. They didn't feel as comfortable as a guy's attire. It all felt too tight and suffocating. Note to self-Jenny: You are burning this outfit when you get back home.

"But dude, it even feels strange to call you 'dude' anymore," James says, eyeing me up and down. An exasperated sigh escaped my lips as I faked remorse, "Sigh, even my own brother never saw me as a girl..." Ty lets out a snicker and then gives me a playful punch on the shoulder.

"Shit, sorry girly... I didn't me to hit you," He jokes and I simply presented him with a devilish smile while I cracked my fingers. Knowing what was coming next; Tyler lifts his hands in surrender and quickly apologizes. James, being one to enjoy a scene, laughs at as. Tyler then gives him this kind of look which read something along the lines of 'I thought you were on my side', and then James ceased from laughing.

My bro and my best friend, awkward...

"You boys really act like a couple sometimes-" My words came to an abrupt end the moment the doorbell was being rang. James and Ty gave me thumbs up (at the same time disregarding my sentence) and then nodded towards the door. Taking a deep breath, I made my way to the door.

I just hope Andrew didn't make a ridiculous comment about what I was wearing. I really and truly didn't want to go on a date with a guy who had two black eyes and a bloody nose.

"You look ... Wow. I am loving the change," Andrew compliments me and surprising the shit out of myself, I blushed. "Thanks, you look great yourself," I say, taking in his simple look. He wore a pair of well fitted black jeans, a white V-neck and a dark jacket. I supposed he wanted to look tough or something?

Not wasting any time at all, we made our way to his car. He wasn't a really flashy guy but he did take pride in his ride. He drove a slick black convertible and I really loved the way it rolled. Drew and I had some small chat on our way to the movies. Surprisingly, we had a lot of things in common; maybe that's why I liked him in the first place.

Speaking of like, did I really like Andrew? I'll be sure by the end of the night then.

We got to the movie theatre in no time and were already choosing a movie. "You want to watch 'The Notebook'?" He asks and I give him this 'are you f*cking with me?' stare. "Do I look like some chick that comes to the movies to watch chick flicks? Well think again, let's watch something with action."

He lets out a sigh of relief, grins at me and chose an action movie. It was sweet though, the way he didn't make a total sexist comment. We got our snacks and made our way into the theatre. On our way there, Andrew took a brave approach and held my hand.

The freakishly weird thing about this was; I felt no sparks. It was totally the opposite outcome as to what I felt with Casey, weird… right?

The movie went along alright, I guess. We made a few jokes every now and then. He would do some cheesy thing like letting out a yawn just to wrap his arm around my shoulder. Even then I was expecting to feel nervous or have my heart skip a beat but it all felt oddly friendly to me. But I thought I liked this guy for a long time. Was my crush a fake?

Eventually, the movie ended and it was time for us to leave. For the type of sneaky player dude Andrew was, I really and truly was expecting more. A few laughs, jokes and flirting wasn't enough. Something didn't feel right and I was yet to find out what.

The drive to my house was short because I lived reasonably close. We were now parked in my driveway in this tension filled silence. 'When did this tension commence?" I asked myself.

"So... I had fun tonight," He says, his husky voice ringing through my ears. Diverting my gaze towards him, I see that he was already facing me. This is when my heartbeat accelerated and I nodded in agreement with his statement.

All of a sudden, I noticed that we were inching towards each other, our vision plastered on each other's lips. Though it was dark out, the moonlight still allowed me to see the shape of his soft pink lips.

Just as our lips were about to touch, my eyes began closing automatically by the sensation of Andrew's hot breath on my face. "I really like you Jenny." And just like that, his hand went to the back of my neck, pulling me closer and he crashed his lips onto mine.

At the contact of our lips I felt no connection. Yes, I did kiss him back but I could see that he was enjoying this much more than I was. Nibbling on my bottom lip, he asks for permission to enter and I allowed him to do as he pleased. The kiss got even more heated as he brought his other hand to my short hair. It was eerie, the way my body didn't respond the way I wanted it to. My hands even lay numbly to my side.

But, then something mind blowing occurred. The image of Casey's face came to my mind and I couldn't focus on Andrew any more. 'I think someone likes Casey!' My stupid sub conscience had nothing more to say, gosh.

Pulling away from the kiss, I was breathless and I felt a little disgusted with myself. Why did I feel this way? I have no idea. "I-I'll see you at school. Thanks for the date," I stammered, as I rushed out of his car. Yes, I seriously stammered, that just proves how awkward this was.

Literally running to my front door, I fiddled with my key to unlock it. Opening the house and entering the living room, I see James and Ty seating really close to each other on the couch. Announcing my presence, I let out a trail of cuss words, ripped of my jacket and dropped myself onto the cool hardwood flooring.

"Someone's date didn't go so well, huh?" Tyler asks and I simple shook my head.

"My baby sister chose the wrong guy I suppose," James comments, giving me this sorry look.

"Guys, let's just say... The crush I thought I had on Andrew was never there in the first place. God, I need a bath and seriously need to wash out the guy's saliva out from my mouth!" I exclaim dramatically, leading to the two boys laughing their asses off. I wasn't upset at them but I still mocked their laughter and went up to my room.

The moment I got up to my room, my phone vibrated in my pocket. Taking it out, I saw that it was only a text from Casey. Any other time I would have ignored it but I supposed that we are friends and though she was annoying as hell, it would be extra rude to neglect her text message. And another reason I gave it my attention was because I was actually looking forward to reading the message.

Hey Jenny... um... I wasn't timing you or anything but I suppose your date with Andrew is over by now, huh? So... how was it? -Casey

It was 'okay'. He admitted in liking me and we made out in his car -Jenny

I didn't see the need to tell her all that information but she was curious after all. Plus, it's not like Casey had a crush on Andrew or something, did she? While I was waiting for her to reply to my message, I removed my clothes and wrapped my towel around me.

Oh okay... -Casey

Are you alright? It's not like you to send short texts -Jenny

I'm fine. So, he kissed you... Exciting, wasn't it? Oh well, I need to go help my mom now, bye! Talk to you at school on Monday! -Casey

Um, okay... Yeah, bye -Jenny

Well, that was a fast departure. There were so many questions roaming my mind at this moment. Some of which were, why would she have mentioned the kiss? Did Casey like Andrew after all? It's almost midnight, what on earth could she be helping her mom with? Why did I think about Casey while kissing Andrew?

A/N: Longest chapter yet! But, I hope that you enjoyed! I wonder if we'll ever get some Jasey/Cenny action :3 Lol, I'm such a tease.... Hmm I wonder what was Casey's mood in her texts about? If you know... Comment a guess!
