Chapter Twenty Four: Part 3

Dylan's POV:

Just watching my girl getting pulled by Ava and Phebs is just sad. I really just wanted to spend today with her and only her. Yesterday was amazing after i asked her to be mine and she said yes, after that we just cuddled under the moonlight by the lake... which was the best day of my life, but then again i couldn't think of what would have happened if i didn't brake her window and meet her that night, i'm just glad we met and now she's my girlfriend. That night she slept in my bed but we didn't do anything but cuddle and sleep.

So now when i see her getting pulled by my two friends away from the group just makes me feel weird, like i don't know. Every time i see her butterflies fill my stomach... oh now i sound like a girl, but yea she makes me nervous and i love her for that... oh god did i just say love oh and that reminds me, i nearly let that slip. I don't want to scare her off especially since we only became official yesterday, i'm really grateful for Aiden telling us to hurry up cause i don't want her running off a day into the relationship. Let me be honest... I Dylan Collins fell for a girl that goes by the name Emilia Josephine, she's amazingly gorgeous, beautiful, lovely personality... something a bad boy like me wouldn't actually fall for if he didn't 'accidentally' meet her and that accident was definitely not an accident in my books... it was what was put in store for me.

"Man don't tell me your starting to be whipped." Hunter says slapping his hand on my shoulder, cutting me out of my daydream and i look to him raising a brow,

"Dude, what are you talking about?" i asked as if i'm confused, i'm not whipped and my old bad boy habits have started to ware off, only the slightest, i still smoke and drink when i get a chance, i don't go to many party's and i still have my bike.

Dude your whipped. My inner voice tells me,

"Dylan," Cory pauses for effect and gives me a tight smile, "you were staring at the same spot she was five minutes ago. Your clearly whipped." he smirks, and i turn to the rest of the guys who are agreeing, and chuckling,

"Nothing to much to worry about, but enough for now were going to have fun!!" Aiden says enthusiastically and i chuckle,

"Yes, that's what this trip is for remember!!" i smile, oh this is going to be like old times with the guys before the girls started hanging out with us,

"Well actually it was for my assignment." Jace adds with humor in his tone and we all crack a laugh, typical Jace, he took out his camera and snapped a photo of us laughing while he was at it,

Emilia's POV:

"There is no way i am going in there." I tell the girls standing stuck to the floor, just staring at the building in front of me. Hell to the no. No way.

"Preettttyyyyy pllleeeewwwwssseeee!!!" Phebs begs in a baby voice with her hands stuck together in front of her chest and a puppy dog face, how can i say no to that. I really really don't want to go in but with the look she's giving me and Ava is just standing by her with a puppy dog face too, really. It was the flipping ride that you stand strapped to while it spins. No thank you.

"Hey there pretay ladies!!" A male voice says from behind and i look at the girls and Ava is smiling, well at least she's single.

"Hey, were kind.." My jaw dropped at who was standing behind us, there was two guys. One of the guys is blonde with blueish-grayish eyes and the other has brown hair and bright green eyes. And let me tell you they were drool worthy eye candy, they were wearing singlets that guys usually wear to the beach... you know the ones that show off their sides and abs.

You have a boyfriend!! Remember!! My inner voices scolds. Yea i do have a boyfriend and a very hot one. These guys couldn't beat his hotness.

"Hey there, sexy!!" Ava is first to talk and i know she wants one of them the way she is looking at them and she is the only one out of the three of us that doesn't have her eye on a guy. Phebs is also looking at them, mouth agape. But i know for a fact she likes Leon.

"I lost my number, i was wondering if i could have yours!!" The blonde winks at her and i struggle to keep my smile away at Ava's giant grin. This pick up line is used way to often for her to fall for it,

"If you tell me your name first." she says biting her lip, while me and Phebs keep silent and standing there awkwardly.

"Well i'm Xavier, and this is Derrick." Xavier says pointing to the guy with brown hair,

"Hey!!" Derrick says with a wave,

"Xavier... i like it." Ava states, ignoring the other guy (who was also standing beside his friend awkwardly), she quickly goes in her bag and finds a pen to write down her number, "Here you go Xav." she says with a flirty smile,

"And what's your name? since you have mine now and have even given me a nickname." he asks and and she smiles,

"Wouldn't you like to know." she says smugly with a sly smirk, and he nods,

"Playing hard to get i see, well maybe if i ask you out, you'll tell me." Xavier replies and i roll my eyes, Ava grins,

"We'll see." She says, ride now forgotten. Ava didn't fall for it but she is being her normal self,

All of a sudden i feel a arm wrap around my waist and pull me towards a hard chest. Making my heart jump out of my chest and me just a mile in the air, scared the shit out of me.

"WHAT THE HELL!!" I yell turning around to face Dylan and his smug smirk, he's being his old bad boy self again. "Dylan!! You scared the shit out of me, are you trying to kill me!!" i scold and he shakes his head,

"Babe, why would i try to kill my gorgeous girlfriend!!" Dylan states with a small smile,

"What did i say about calling me babe!!" i say trying to keep a smile off my lips since he called me his 'gorgeous girlfriend', but it's slowly making its way to my lips,

"You will forgive me once you see what i got you," he smiles secretively and he looks around to see the girls with Xavier and Derrick, and his arm tightened around my waist, "and who is this?" Dylan says through slightly gritted teeth, keeping his gaze on the two standing near us,

"Well, this is Xavier and Derrick." Ava tells him pointing to the guys, with a slight pink tinging her cheeks,

I feel a few other presences behind me, and turn to see a few of the others including Leon who looks pissed off, his jaw is tight and his eye colour is turning darker in anger. Leon's eyes flicked from Phebs to the guys and instantly pinpointed his anger or more like jealousy. Leon turned on his heel and stormed away, Phebs soon noticed this and stared after him looking nervous. Hunter, Cory and Aiden didn't seem to notice this but i sure did and i'm assuming Jace and Dylan did to.

"I-I have to go use the b-bathroom." Phebs stutters and takes off in the way that Leon stalked off.

Suspicious much. I'm starting to assume that their dating or their getting to that point soon enough.

Aiden stares off at his little sister, but looks back to Xavier and Derrick with fury in his eyes,

"Come on Ava, we are leaving!!" Aiden demands through gritted teeth,

"Oh come on, we were just talking." She tells him and he shakes his head,

"No! We are leaving. Now!!" Hunter cuts in before Aiden says anything,

"Dude, listen to the girl. We were just talking." Xavier steps in and all this time Derrick has barely said a word,

Hunter moves forward and grabs Xavier from the shirt, "Oh, i heard but did you not hear us. We are leaving." Hunter says in a deadly tone,

"Guys lets just go," i mumble and they sure heard me cause Aiden grabbed Ava's hand and pulled her along,

Is there something i am missing... maybe i'm just seeing things.

Once we arrive at the cars with an arguing Aiden and Ava. Hunter, Aiden and Cory all get into one of the cars with a strugling Ava. Hunter in the driver's seat.

"You guys go ahead, we will go and find Leon and Phebs. Plus Jace still needs a few shots for our assignment. Right?" i ask him and he half nods,

"Yea, Em's right. We still need to find where they got to, so go ahead and we'll meet back at the house." Dylan says and the others nod except for Aiden,

"She's my sister, shouldn't i look for her?" Aiden argues and i shake my head softly,

"We'll meet back at the house. It's fine." i say with a small smile, and he nods unsure, "go, seriously it's fine." and he meekly closes the door. Hunter starts the engine and there off.

"How did a good day turn out like this?" i mumble and Dylan slings his arm over my shoulder.

"Did you find them?" i ask into the phone, we all split up,

"No, you?" Dylan asks and i shake my head,

"Nope. I'll look again, and in ten minutes we'll meet up at the Ferris wheel." i tell him,

"Sure thing."

I hang up and start my search again, i know for a fact that they are together... Phebs and Leon i mean. But i have looked nearly everywhere for them in the past two hours of being here, where can they possibly be? I close my eyes momentarily, and think, if you were an pissed off where would you go? a place to calm you down... that's it the place, where in California for goodness sake, the beach.

I quickly take off towards the beach finding a path there, Running and slipping as sand flicks on the back of my legs, i race towards the end of the path and look around only for the beach to be packed, are you freaking kidding me? Well we are in California, our trip here to get closer was a failure... maybe not so much as Dylan and me are now a couple, but i'm starting to think otherwise for others, i thought i wouldn't be able to find them but a smile reaches my lips as i spot the blue, purple, yellow and orange multicoloured flower top that Phebs was wearing this morning along with her blonde hair flowing in the wind, lip locked with a brown headed guy, his arms wrapped tightly around her waist. Well that was fast,

I run up to the lovey dovey couple and tap her shoulder, she turned around and my smile dropped. You have got to be kidding me, right?

"Sorry, i thought you were someone else." i apologize quickly, the lady gave me a weird look and so did the guy, but i ignored it and start my search again walking through the sand searching for them, this is going to take forever.

I knew it was to good to be true.

Jace has probably got all his photo's by now, while looking for the two. I'm sure the boys know that they are together seeming those two did see her run after him. That was the reason why i told Aiden to go back to the house, cause the fact that they would most likely be together... together.

Where are you?- Em.

I send her and Leon a quick text, but they most probably won't see it and be to caught up with something else. And knowing them, they wouldn't be out in the public making out so why did i think that couple was them.

My phone starts ringing and i pick up almost immediately without checking caller ID,

"Hello," I ask quickly into the phone,

"Em, did you find them?" Jace's voice comes through the phone and i shake my head forgetting he can't see me,

"No, not yet. Did you? or Dylan?" i ask and i hear him sigh,

"Nope. But where could they possibly be, this place is huge," he tells me,

"What are we going to do? i'm at the beach now looking for them, you call Dylan and i'll look here one last time. I also messaged them, no reply." i tell him, i hear him take a deep breath,

"Ok, look one last time. We'll meet somewhere?"

"I told Dylan the Ferris wheel, so we'll meet there ok?" i say looking around my surroundings,

"Ok. Talk soon."

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

Seconds turned into minutes and minutes turned into hours. Still no sign of the two, well it is weird that they are nowhere to be seen and still no reply to my texts. I'm now with Dylan and Jace now, still searching. Well we did go on a few rides cause you know looking for Phebs and Leon didn't go so well and i'm pretty sure that Jace felt like a third wheel. It's getting dark now and the blue sky is just getting darker by the minute. Now we are just going for a walk on the beach, if they wanted us to find them we would have already.

"So Em, you enjoying your time here in Cali?" Jace questions with a small smile,

"Of course i do Jace, i love it. I can't believe you actually brought us here." i say and he smiles,

"Well i knew you would and plus my family came here all the time when i was younger. I liked taking photo's back then too you know and ]we are back here again now but only this time i'm with my friends... well best friends." he tells us and i nod,

"Well i'm lucky i brought my camera here today cause this place is amazing for photo's." i say taking another snap of our view, this place is just amazing and since it's getting darker, lights from the carnival are shining brightly.

"Well isn't it about time you put that thing away." Dylan says slowly taking it away from me and i pout and he trys to act serious but he can't, he always gives into the pout,

"Fine." he whines, but i grab his other hand and look straight up at him,

"Dylan," i say stepping forward, pressing a kiss to his cheek, i really don't want to kiss him in front of Jace, especially since it's rude.

"Uh guys," Jace interrupts, still staring into Dylan's eyes i reply,

"Yea," Dylan's still looking me in the eye and starts to lean down while Jace is distracted,

"I think i found them," he says awkwardly,

I pull away from Dylan and turn to face what Jace was looking at from the distance and i instantly smile at what i see, i damn knew it.

Phebs and Leon was lip locked in the corner of the beach where its more private.

I look at the guys reactions and Dylan's wide eyed, while Jace just stands still as can be.

"Guys. That's perfectly normal." i say slinging my arms over their shoulders.
