Secrets

Chapter 2

Over dinner last night at Wendy's we planned that were going to go to the beach. Since Harry is the only one with a car he is going to pick me up around 10.

....

"Damn, its fucking hot here."

"No really Harry? We are at a beach.. Its summer. I thought it would he freezing!!" Gemma sarcastically remarks

Laying here on the blanket brought broke many memories. I was about 7 years old with Harry and Gemma and our parents of course. But we spent hours digging this hole at the beach. When we got tired of digging we just sat in the hole and talked for hours. It sounds kinda stupid but it was fun.

"Lets go in the water." Harry says

"No we are tanning!" Gemma says

"Come on, lets go. I wanna go!" I say

"Well, than you two go, Im not leaving."

"But.." I didn't want to go with just him.

"Come on jackie, lets go."

"But.."

Next thing I knew, my feet were no longer touching the hot sand because Harry was carrying me. I tried wiggling my way out but failed miserably, he had a strong grip.

He places me down in the shallow water.

"There... Your in the water now."

"Its cold!"

"Oh get over it wimp" he smirks.

"Wimp?? Your the wimp." I say pushing him over causing him to fall backwards.

In defense he splashes back.

We were acting like we were five years old. Splashing each other back and forth, getting closer and closer to get the other person.

The space between us decreased, although childish Harry refused to stop splashing. An uncontrolled laugh comes out! I rested my head on Harrys shoulder, not sure why but I just did. Still laughing of course.

I pulled back once I gained full control of myself. We had this moment where we are just looking at each other. While the little children swim and shout around us.

"So uh.. We should check on Gemma" I say trying not make the awkward tension worse.

"Yeah, yeah, we should." I nod and walk towards the blanket.

Of course on the blanket, laid my sleeping friend. My only option was to wake her up.

"Good morning" I joke

"Ha.. Ha.. Are you guys done with the water?"

"Pretty much."

"Wheres Harry?"

"He was just behind me."

"Oh?"

"Oh there he is." Harry was making his way to the blanket with his head down kicking sand up as he walked.

"Are you guys done with the beach now?" Gemma asked

"Yeah lets get out of here" he says quite angrily.

"Geez! Someones being a pain in the ass."

"Shut up Gemma." He says before grabbing his things and walking away.

Gemma and I pack up everything else and try to find the truck. Grumpy Harry is already in the truck with the AC and blasting the Radio.

"What the hell happened to him in the water?" Gemma questioned.

"I.. I dont know."
