Surviving The Tide With Shay

Twenty-Three ~ Quint's Party

Everyone: Welcome Back Quint*yelling*

He smiled before turning and hugging you.

You: Let's dance grab a partner

You look over at Ari and smiled. He pointed at you and himself and you shook your head yes that was until Summer grabbed his hand and pulled him over to the dance floor.You turned on die first then you pulled Quint to the middle of the dance floor. The music paused.You looked over to see your mom.

Mom: Can everyone please make a circle around them

You: No mom it's fine everyone come on mom un-pause the music.

She un-paused the music and you all started dancing.Poppy and Marlon,Prawnie and Bodhi, Summer, and Ari, and You with Quint.They were all dancing while a bunch of other people joined the party and started dancing(slow dancing).You look over at Ari and see him and Summer laughing while her head is buried in his neck.The song slowed down meaning it's ending when you look at Quint and he spins you. After the spin the song ended you looked over and saw Summer and Ari kissing. You walked over to the porch and  yelled thank you and your mom rolled out a projecter and you looked over to where it was aimed and there was a whit sheet hanging from the trees. You disconnected from the speaker and connected to the projector.

You: Can everyone take a seat and look at the sheet please I want to show you all something.

Once everyone was sitting down you started going through the pictures till you got to the short video witch was your favorite.

Bodhi: I was there when you took that

You all laughed then there weren't anymore photos and you shut off the projector and you all ate. You sat on the porch all night though. Ari walked up to you while you were playing on your phone while your head was on Quints shoulder.

Ari: Shay listen I'm sorry about what Summer did she shouldn't have kissed me that long

You: So are you saying she should've kissed you even though you have a girlfriend but she shouldn't have kissed you that long cause of your girlfriend

Ari: No that's not what I'm saying

You: Then what are you saying *almost in tears*

Ari: I'm saying she shouldn't have kissed me and it was wrong for me to let her kiss me that long

You: Did you kiss back

Ari: Wait...- no

You: Did you kiss back

Ari: What

You: Did...You... Kiss...Her...Back*standing up*

You saw Summer from the corner of your eye walk up on the porch.

Ari: No I didn't kiss her back Shay 

You: Ok

Ari: Shay she means absolutely nothing to me

You: She means nothing not even a penny

Ari: *eyes closed* No she means a lot to me and my family but not as much as you do

You: I don't believe you

Ari: Do you trust me

You: Do I trust you... trust you look where that's gotten me

Ari: Baby I'm so sorry please*hugging you*

You pulled out of Ari's arms his touch lingering longer than it should.

You: Ari I'm sorry but I can't trust you and a relationship needs trust in order for it to properly work out

Ari: No please Shay I love you

You: You love me but you aren't in love with me*crying*

Ari: Yes I am

You: I'm in love with you but you aren't mine

Ari: What no please...please...please please please Shay*tearing up*

You: Ari I'm sorry but I think we need to break up

Ari: *crying* No please Shay don't do this please it won't happen again I'm so sorry

The rest of the team walked up on the porch and only you saw.

You: Ari you basically cheated non me

Ari: I didn't kiss back

Quint: But you didn't bother to push her off either

Ari: I'm so sorry please

You: I'm sorry but you aren't mine 

You started crying to the point you could barely talk so you walked inside everyone following.

Ari: Please Shay

You: Ari... please..go...away

And with those words he walked away and out the door and your knees buckled and you fell to the floor sobbing. Quint and the team sat down and hugged you tightly.

* Half an hour later*

Everyone stood up and brushed themselves off. Quint helped you up and you brushed your self off and looked at you makeup using the camera on your phone. You makeup was fine and you still looked pretty.

Summer: Shay I-

You: Don't

Summer: Just please listen

You: Fine

Summer: I've liked him since we jumped stairway and I was just so tempted to kiss him and that's what I did and I 'm sorry cause I shouldn't have but it felt so relaxi-

You grabbed Quint's hand and walked out while Summer was talking. You connected you phone to the speaker and played some music.You realized Ari's mom and dad were here along with Honey.
