Kyle
I wonder where Tess went with Evans and why they left. I tune out Alex and Maria's banter and ignore Jake and Isabel as well as I brood over what Tess and Max might be up to.
I'm way cuter than Max, why isn't Tess hanging out with me? And the others of course. Max is way too boring for her ... the water fights earlier proved that - the guy doesn't know how to have fun. Well, I'm gonna prove to Tess that she is taking a walk with the wrong guy!
I really want to know what they are talking about! I better stop looking after them though before they think I'm actually interested in what they do.
Well, will be interesting who'll decide when we drive back. Maria and Alex won't mind staying for longer and while Isabel merely shrugged, it's obvious that she isn't too comfortable here. Probably wanting some time alone with lover boy.
Lets see what Michael and Liz are up too. I just hope the guy isn't drowing Parker and ...
"HOLY SHIT!" I yell in surprise.
"God Kyle!" Isabel snaps at me annoyed. "Don't you have manners?"
"What's wrong?" Alex asks before looking out towards the ocean like me too. "Oh."
We all are now staring with interest and also shock towards Michael and Liz who are clearly playing tonsil hockey.
Who would have thought that Liz had it in her?

ALEX
"I never said that she had an operation!"
After Kyle's question about how long we are going to be here, Maria immediately said that she wouldn't mind being here till the morning while
Isabel's answer was something like "I really don't have to be the last one to leave." I guess that was a hint for me to not stay to long and drive them home soon.
In the end, we agreed to wait till everyone was here before making a decision.
Anyway, Maria and I started a conversation about music, singers and the hype about young artists and that not many artists can be successfull for more than 20 years - if they want to. That way, we got to Cher and Madonna with Maria wondering how old Cher might really be and I made the mistake of mentioning that Madonna now looked younger too than about 8 years ago.
At least now I know to never say something bad about Madonna when fans of her are present!
Maria is about to reply when Kyle's outburst gets my attention. Trying to find out what is wrong, I look towards the ocean in the direction that Kyle is looking and ... "Oh."
Please, don't let Liz be the one who started the kiss!

It's not much, but at least it's a part.
<center>~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ Liz ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~</center>
“Michael?” I ask when he has this odd expression on his face. I don’t quite know what he’s about to do until it’s too late. And that sounds odd, even to my own ears, considering that things seemed to move in slow motion. I wanted to stop him, but by the time I could, his lips had already descended on mine. His arms crushed me to him and I’m sure that my face would reveal my panic. My eyes were wide as I tried my best to push against him. Part of me wanted to scream, while the other part of me was afraid what he’d do if I opened my mouth to.
Pushing against him wasn’t doing anything. He was just too strong, but there was little else that I could do. I turned my head to try and separate us. My efforts were rewarded. As soon as I was able to push myself away and extricate myself from his hold, I glared at him.
“What was that for!” I screamed, demanding an answer more than asking for one. The anger in my tone apparent to me and possibly to everyone else, which is exactly how I wanted it. The whole beach could have heard me just then and I wouldn’t have cared. He just looked at me in that Michael way he has.
He had taken advantage of the situation and misread everything! I had never felt so embarrassed and . . . and . . . I don’t even know how to explain it! He made me feel . . . almost . . . cheap.
I wanted to hit him for what he’d done, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Instead I turned and swum part of the way back to shore before standing and stumbling through the water to run on the sand, parallel to the breaking waves, down the beach. I purposefully chose the direction opposite of where I noticed Max and Tess walking earlier. I didn’t know where I was running precisely. I just knew that I had to get away. I wanted to get away from Michael, and I didn’t want to face the others and the questions they were bound to ask.
I needed to calm down before I lashed out on someone who didn’t deserve my anger. I needed to calm down, and running decided like a good idea. I didn’t even care that I was wet or wearing next to nothing. Getting my clothes meant seeing the others, and seeing the others was something I wanted to avoid at all costs at the moment. That included getting my clothes.

YAY! Wonderful Liz part. 
I'm only sorry that Max wasn't able to see it. But it did seem like a perfect oportunity for Michael. 
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
*Michael*
Liz is a pretty girl and kissing her should be great but somehow it doesn't seem that way. She's stiffening in my arms and pushing away. As I break off, she screams at me! Demanding to know why, and then turns and runs off before I can answer.
"Hey! Come back!" I yell at her, wading through the water towards the shore. I can't let her just run off. How's that gonna look. Wait, I think, stopping for a moment. How's it gonna look if I go chasing after a girl? They're supposed to be chasing after me!
But as I stand here watching her, I forget about that. This is Liz. The one person here who's been anything close to a friend. I can't let her be upset. She's moving away from the others, almost running. No, I gotta figure this out.
"Liz!" I shout, moving quickly out of the water now and then running down the sand. She's got a head start on me, but then, I'm pretty good at running and she's doing mostly a really fast walk.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
*Max*
Tess doesn't respond to my comment about the sunset except to smile softly and walk a little more closely to me. As we get past the jetty, I pause, putting my arm around her waist. She lays her head on my shoulder and everything feels really peaceful and warm and nice.
I stand for a few moments just feeling her breathe, listening to the gulls and enjoying everything. I try to banish Liz from my mind but it isn't easy. Instead, I concentrate on how nice Tess is. Her smile, her golden hair. Her friendly laugh - no good - that makes me think of Liz's laugh.
I turn slightly so I'm looking at her face. "You really are beautiful," I tell her. It's lame, because I'm sure she knows that, but still it seems worth saying because it's true. Her eyes are clear and blue and her hair is so soft and smooth.
She smiles at me, soft and sweet. I look at her and try to see only her. Smiling, I move in closer. I move my free hand up to her face, over her ear, as I lean in and meet her lips with my own for a soft kiss.

TESS
Max comments on the beautiful sunset as we walk towards the jetty, and I agree with a smile; lost in the moment words don’t seem that necessary right now. He wraps his arm around my waist and pulls me closer to him when we come to a stop before the jetty. I sigh involuntarily and lean my head on his shoulder. He is so warm and soft, in the good way, like cuddly soft.
After a few minutes, Max turns to face me, and I look up at his big, blue eyes- I mean, his deep brown eyes. Max has brown eyes. Max is not Kyle. Kyle is still back at the bonfire, sulking … or something.
"You really are beautiful," Max says suddenly. I don’t even have time to blush before his lips are descending on mine and I tilt my head back and up to meet his in a light, sweet kiss. A few glorious seconds later our lips part and I open my eyes to see him just staring at me. He brushes a thumb back and forth across my cheek for a few seconds. I can feel the blood rushing to my face this time. I smile up at him; he is standing so close I can smell the mixture of salt water with his cologne.
“What was that for?” I ask softly, wondering to what I owe the pleasure of that first [?] kiss.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sorry I didn't move it forward any, I'm still new to the intimate interactions part of role playing, and I can't remember if they've already kissed or not.

“Liz!” I heard Michael call me once again, probably wanting me to stop, but I didn’t feel like it. I didn’t know how I would react, be it cry, lash out, or try to hit him. After the whole Alex-Max fiasco, another act of violence would not be prudent.
I turned to see that he was jogging after me, catching up, and I shouted back, “Just leave me alone, okay?” Not knowing whether that would get him to stop or not, I start running away with the intention of putting distance between us. The wet sand was fairly easy to run on, packed and cool against the soles of my feet. I kept my breathing even and ran, trying to clear my mind, but the fact that Michael had taken advantage of the situation, of me, when I was just starting to think that that wasn’t the only thing on his mind.
Tossing my wet hair over my shoulder I increased my pace not wanting to spare a glance over my shoulder to see if he was there.

I know I should take a hint and leave Liz alone but I can't let her be all upset. "No, Liz. Wait! I'm sorry," I call after her as I start a solid run.
In a short while, I catch up with her not far from the bar/bathhouse. I reach for her arm and then think better of it, running two steps ahead of her and turning around. "Liz, stop," I say. She does, but the look she gives me is deadly and she immediately starts to turn. I'm sure she's about to change direction and keep going. I reach out then, gently holding her upper arm. It's light enough that she could break out easily, but I'm hoping she'll stay. "Please wait. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. I'm just -- I don't know. I didn't -- Don't be mad."
I don't really understand this. I know she wasn't really my type from the start, but she seemed to like me. I thought I'd try it but it obviously didn't work for either of us. I don't understand that. I frown, remembering something else that she'd said. A friend. She had wanted to be a friend. I wanted a friend, too. I guess I don't really know what to do with a friend who's a girl, but I know I don't want her to be angry and upset.
*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*
*Max*
Tess smiles at me and I have to smile back. It feels so nice to see that soft expression on her face and know it's because of me. I know she's not pretending.
What was that for? she asks.
"For you, of course. Because I really like you," I tell her.
I lean forward and give her another soft kiss. My hand runs down her hair and over her warm bare shoulder. The setting sun, the sound of the surf and the softly crying seagulls makes this so nearly perfect. There's only one thing more that it would need, but that's not something I can even think about right now.
I pull back and once again find myself admiring Tess's soft smile. Still, I'm not sure I'm really wanting a major make-out session right now. I glance to the north and see that we're only a hunddred yards or so from the end of the private beach. I guess there's not a lot of point in a longer walk. Instead, I take Tess by the hand.
"Let's sit here for a while," I say, leading her to the jetty. She sits with me as we both look out over the water. The sun is setting beneath the trees and I put my arm around her waist, holding her close as her head again falls onto my shoulder.
"Are you cold?" I ask. It's still very warm out, dispite the darkening sky but I ask, anyway.
I know I should take a hint and leave Liz alone but I can't let her be all upset. "No, Liz. Wait! I'm sorry," I call after her as I start a solid run.

“What do you think is going on now?” Maria asks as we watch Liz power walk in the opposite direction with Michael running after her. Honestly this is more entertaining then watching daytime television. I just wish I could hear what was being said.
“I wonder if Liz is going to slap him,” I say, not tearing my eyes off the couple stood further along the beach “Liz sure doesn’t look happy,”
“How can you tell that from here?” Kyle asks
“The fact that she is running away from him kinda gives it away,” I state rolling my eyes and turning back around to face the campfire “You’ve obviously done something very wrong if a girl runs away from you that fast,”
“Do you think Michael used one of his terrible chat up lines?” Maria asks when she finally turns back around.
I shudder, “God, no wonder Liz run!”
“I think it might have had something more to do with the kiss that the whole beach just witness then the use of bad chat up lines.” Jake says and I roll my eyes again. Men, what do they know? If they honestly knew how much of a turn off most chat up lines were then they wouldn’t dream of ever using them again.
“I’m going to go and get a drink, do you want anything?” Jake asks, I shake my head and he kisses the back of my hand before heading towards the beach.
“Wow, you two are sure gag worthy.” Maria says with a grin “So what were you talking about when we were all in the water?”
I shrug and bite back a smile, “We didn’t really get a chance to talk”
“Give me all the details,” Maria says leaning closer.
“Well…”
The ringing of Jake’s cell phone ends my sentence abruptly and I instantly reach for the phone and answer it.
“Jake’s phone,”
“Do you think you should be answering his phone?” Maria asks but I silence her by raising my hand.
There’s a drawn pause from the other end of the phone before a female voice replies, “Who is this?”
“Isabel and this would be whom?” I ask icily, already I can sense that this is going to be very bad.
“Alexis,”
I begin to relax, “Jake’s sister.”
“Actually I’m Jake’s wife”
“His….what?” I screech the last word in horror. This can’t be possible. Jake can’t be married, its just so wrong and eww I’ve been kissing a married man.
“So you’re Jake’s latest tramp. You should know he’s just using you”
I open and close my mouth in utter disbelief. Tramp? Did she just call me a tramp? And using me? Nobody uses me, I’m Isabel Anderson for Christ’s sake. What the hell is wrong with these people? Don’t they realize who I am?
“Did you want me to pass on a message?” I ask with fake sweetness
“Tell him his son needs some diapers,”
The phone goes dead as I begin to chant the words “Oh my God”
“Izzy, are you okay?” Maria asks with a concerned frown.
“I’m fine,” I say with bright smile that makes my jaw ache. I look over my shoulder for any sign of Jake and spot him walking back towards us.
One, two, three, four, five…..
I stand up and throw myself into Jake’s arms, catching him slightly off balance.
“What this for?” he asks tightening his arms around my waist and grinning down at me. I grit my teeth and smile back at him. I’m going to enjoying wiping that smug grin off his face. Its not in my blood to play second best to anyone and I refuse to be anything less number one.
As I look up at Jake I start to fill sick to my stomach. God, how could I be so stupid? Why didn‘t I figure out that he was jerk? Surely all the signs must have been there. How could I be so blind? “I think there is something you should know about me Jake,”
“And what is that?” the arrogant bastard asks.
“I don’t share well,” I state be kneeing him hard in the groin area. Jake groans and falls to the sand in obvious pain. “Your wife rang, you need to stop off at the store before you go home”
“You bitch…”
“Tut tut Jake, there is no need for names but here’s a little warning for you. Come near me again and I will have you castrated” I smile sweetly “And I will make sure its very painful!”
“I’m going to have to arrested…”
“Aww sweetie, that’s a nice dream but I have one of the best lawyers in the country so there really isn’t much point. Its been a blast but you’re boring me now so if you’re excuse me,” I turn sharply on my heal and walk back to where Maria, Kyle and Alex are staring in mixture of horror and shock.
I grit my teeth and look towards Alex, “I want to go home now,”
I stalk towards the car.
I will not cry
I will not cry
I will not cry

“Tut tut Jake, there is no need for names but here’s a little warning for you. Come near me again and I will have you castrated” I smile sweetly “And I will make sure its very painful!”
“I’m going to have to arrested…”
“Aww sweetie, that’s a nice dream but I have one of the best lawyers in the country so there really isn’t much point. Its been a blast but you’re boring me now so if you’re excuse me,” I turn sharply on my heal and walk back to where Maria, Kyle and Alex are staring in mixture of horror and shock.
I grit my teeth and look towards Alex, “I want to go home now,”
I stalk towards the car.
I will not cry
I will not cry
I will not cry

“I didn’t mean to hurt you. I just—I don’t know,” Michael says to me, his hand still on my arm. “I didn’t—Don’t be mad.” I can tell that he was searching for the right words, stumbling over the words falling out of his mouth, but he can’t seem to find what he wants to say.
I shrug his hand off, still not really looking at him. I can tell that he is sorry, but I don’t know if he’s sorry for what he did, or if he’s just sorry that what he had done upset me. I shake my head and look at him.
“Apology accepted. Just don’t let it happen again.” I speak the words that I know he wants to hear, but I don’t want to just be with him quite yet. All I really wanted to do was go home, take a shower, put on some comfy pajamas and have some ice cream before reading a book and going to bed. I start going back to the camp and Michael calls me once more.
“Michael, things are okay. Everything’s fine. You have said your apology, and I have accepted it. Just let me go. Okay.”
I race across the beach and slow when I near everyone. Kyle and Maria are talking quietly about something. Alex was collecting some items and shaking the sand off a towel.
“Hey, Parker,” Kyle said when he saw me walk up.
“Hey,” I said in answer, hoping to be dismissive enough so they didn’t ask about what happened between Michael and I. “Are you leaving?” I ask, catching my breath.
“Yeah, Isabel’s ready to go,” Alex says as he shakes the sand out of the towel one last time before folding it. “She’s already waiting by the car,” he added nodding over to where they parked.
“Can I walk over with you and see if Isabel would mind my going back home with you? I’m ready to go myself.” If they let me go, I’d be so grateful.

great posts!

I roll my eyes when Maria starts to press Isabel about details. Great! Chicks constantly need to gossip - probably the reason for their existance! Jake's cell interrupts them - thank God - and Isabel answers it.
From what I get from Isabel's side of the conversation, she first believed that Jake's sister called but then she got a bit .. hysterical, I guess. It couldn't be that bad though since she's obviously taking a message for him. But then agian, she starts chanting "OMG" over and over again.
I told you it's mysterious!
When Jake comes back, it's all fine again though and she's up and in his arms agian in a second. She really must like the guy when she can't be without him for a few moments.
I share a glance with Alex and he's obviously as unimpressed by that lovely-dovely show as I am. I'm about to make some comment about it to Alex when Jake suddenly groans in pain and goes down on his knees. It's pretty obvious what happened and ... OUCH! That must have hurt ... I mean, I myself can feel the pain.
Okay, I think that Isabel is dangerous and it will be pretty smart to stay away from her from now on. Tess will be my main target and no one else.
Isabel frostily tells Alex that she wants to leave before hurrying towards the cars. Alex immediately jumps up and starts gathering his and Isabel's stuff, good little boy that he is.
"Wow, that was something." I whisper to Maria.

“I want to go home now.” Isabel tells me before turning and leaving. Still in a slight shock over what just happened, I start to get my stuff and also Isabel's since she forgot it. What just happened is proof that being on bad terms with Isabel isn't good for health.
Not that I'm feeling too sorry for Jake, he certainly got what he deserved. I hope his wife leaves him, every woman deserves better than him.
I am feeling sorry for Isabel. I didn't want her with Jake but things ending like that ... that is hard. At least I might have still a chance with her since the cheater is out of the picture now.
Liz comes up and asks if we are already leaving. It must be a bit confusing for her - Isabel and Jake gone, me packing and Maria and Kyle chatting - so I tell her that Isabel and I are leaving. I'm a bit surprised about her wish to leave but then again, I guess after whatever happened with her and Michael she isn'T too interested in a merry bonfire anymore either.
After sharing a glance with Maria and Kyle, I shrug, "Sure. Come on." I say when I am sure I have everything and that Liz is ready.
I quickly sum up what happened between Isabel and Jake, so Liz won't make a comment about Jake's disappearance.
"Such a jerk." Liz mutters. "The poor girl."
"Yeah," I agree when we come closer to Isabel and my car. She looks like she's on the verge of crying. Great ... I've never been at my best around crying women.
"Here." I hand here her bag, maybe there are tissues in it. "I hope I forgot nothing."
"How are you?" Liz asks concerned.
"Lets just drive back." Isabel replies in a monotone voice. "I don't want to run into Jake again."
"Maybe we'll get the chance to chase him a bit with the car?" I mumble but obviously loud enough for both girls to hear me. I guess I wanted to be funny with that (it would be fun to drive after Jake while going 70mph) but now is probably not the time for fun.
"Sorry."
not really what I wanted but I hope you can work with it
*chuckles evilly under her breath*This really didn't turn out the way I wanted it to but eh Jake was starting to annoy me.
