him to know his dirty talk turns me on. “Do you think about anything other than sex?”
    “Who says I was talking about sex?” He challenges me.
    “Were you?”
    “Yes, definitely,” he confirms. “But that's not the point. You didn't know that I was talking about sex… Which means that you were thinking about it too.”
    I throw my pillow at him. “ Vampire Diaries or Gossip Girl . Take your pick.”
    He groans. “If I'm forced to watch, I guess I'll go with Vampire Diaries .”
    I push play. “Good choice.”
    I cuddle up next to Stephan.
    I quickly decide that my Stephan is way hotter than the one on The Vampire Diaries . I also decide that I'm TEAM DAMON . Vampire Stephan is way too boring. Besides that, Ian Somerhalder is pretty hot for an old dude. I would totally tap that. (You know… if I wasn’t dating Stephan).

    You wish.
     
    After watching a few episodes of The Vampire Diaries , Ethan comes over to hang out, so we decide to go surfing. While I still haven't mastered the art quite yet, I have managed to stand up on my board about five times, which is huge progress.
    “So what did you and Mona talk about on Monday?” Ethan asks me as we are waiting on a wave. “She's been so quiet ever since you two ditched school.”
    My eyes glance over at Stephan, whois now looking at me curiously. Why did I lie? Ugh…
    “Um…” I look back at Ethan. “Just girl stuff. I'm sure if she wanted you to know what was said, she would tell you.”
    “Why didn't you tell me, Scar? Is that why you were acting so weird on Monday?” Stephan asks.
    “Yeah. I'm sorry. It's just Mona asked to talk to me. It was personal, and I promised that I wouldn't tell anybody. It's her business to tell.” It’s also Stephan's business. He has a right to know the truth. And I feel so guilty about keeping this from him. But I don't tell them that.
    “Okay,” Ethan accepts my answer, and paddles toward an oncoming wave. Stephan however is sitting there, looking at me like he's trying to figure me out.
    “I'm sorry I can't tell you more.”
    “I know there is something that you're not telling me, but I trust you. I know you'll do the right thing. If you ever need to talk, I'm here.”
    And then Stephan has to go and say something like that. I want so badly to tell him, but I can't. It wouldn't be right. It's Mona's place to tell him.
    Damn it, why did Mona have to tell me?
    “This one is small, you should catch it,” Stephan urges me.
    So we both paddle out together. I manage to stand up and am excited when I don't fall right away. But the shore is coming fast, and I've never actually ridden all the way in so I don't know what to do. As soon as my board hits the sand, I go flying forward. I land face first in the sand with my mouth open.
    I hear Stephan and Ethan running up to me.
    “Are you okay?” Ethan asks.
    I pull my face out of the sand, and start spitting the sand out of my mouth. When I do, Ethan and Stephan both laugh at me. I glare at them.
    “Not…” I stop to spit. “Funny.”
    They keep laughing. “Yes it is,” they both agree.
    “I'm going to wash my mouth out and take a shower,” I say, storming past them.
    “Oh, come on, Scarlett!” Stephan runs up beside me. “It was funny.”
    I spit again. “Maybe it will be funnier once I get all of this sand off me.”
    “Do you want help? I would be glad to assist you in the shower,” he offers.
    I can't stay mad at Stephan long. “You wish.”
     
    When I come out of the bathroom, Stephan is waiting for me in my bedroom. I'm only wearing my bra and a thong. I scream and try to cover myself up with my hands.
    Stephan is topless from surfing, and he has on his blue swimming shorts. He looks good, and for a second, I'm almost distracted by the fact that I'm basically naked.
    “What are you doing?”
    “Oh, come on,” he smirks. “I just saw you in your bikini. Your bra and panties cover up more than it did.”
    “My bikini wasn't a thong.
