Summer
Love
    I look to be about thirteen. I’m sitting on the beach
in a pink tankini. The guys are ahead of me, playing Frisbee. Well, most of the
guys are, Amr is off to the side of me reading.
    “Why don’t you go play
with them?” I ask.
    He glances over the top of
his book. He looks at the guys, who are now fighting over the Frisbee and rough
housing. “Why don’t you?”
    “I’ve already beat them
three times and they get all bent out of shape if I beat them every time. That
includes giving them bruises when they try to tackle me. It wasn’t like that
when we were little.”
    Amr sighs and closes his
book. “That’s because they see you as a girl now.”
    I frown. “That’s good,
because I am a girl.”
    “No. Before they knew you were a girl, but didn’t see you as
one. You have boobs and curves now.”
     
    “What does either have to
do with it?”
    “A lot, trust me.”
    “Well, do you see me like
they do?”
    His nose scrunches up.
“Not really. I think of you as more of a sister. You’re not my type anyway.”
    I scoot closer to him and
smirk. I lean into him. “Who is your type?”
    His cheeks flush, before
he mutters. “Karen Gillan.”
    I frown. “I don’t know who
that is. Is she one of the girls staying here at the resort?”
    He shakes his head. “She’s
one of the companions of the Eleventh Doctor.”
    I frown still then it
clicks. “Oh, she’s off that show you love. Doctor Whatsit.”
    “Doctor Who.”
    “Yeah, that show. I never
really got into it. I’m a Kardashian kind of girl.”
    His lip turns up in
disgust. “I hope one day you gain a more refined taste, at the very least stop
watching reality television.”
    I shrug. “Eh. Television
is your drug of choice, not mine.”
    “And what is your drug of
choice? Triton?”
    I look over at him with
wide eyes. I cannot believe he just said that aloud. I reach over and slap his
thigh. “Shut up! He might hear you!”
    “Avvi, go get us some
drinks. We’re dying,” says Maverick.
    “What’s the magic words?”
I call back. The least he could do is say please. Too bad we don’t have
servants here to help out.
    “Bunny panties!” yells
back Dante.
    My cheeks heat up and Amr
busts a gut laughing. He sees my panties one time, on laundry day, and he will
never let me live it down that they had bunnies printed all across them.
    “Shut up, D! When are you
going to drop that?”
    “Never, Fire! I will take
it with me into the beyond.” He gives me a wink and I stick my tongue out at
him. It is his turn to blush, he turns away from me quickly and goes into the
sea.
    “C’mon, I’ll go help you
get the drinks. I’m dying of thirst, too,” says Triton, as he comes to stand in
front of me. He holds his hand out to me, to help me up. I’m glad the blush
from before is still staining my cheeks, or else he would see the new one that
took its place.
    I take his offered hand
and stand up. Even though I’m now standing, he doesn’t let go of my hand. I
can’t help but let a small smile ease onto my face. He pulls me toward the
concession stand and I look over my shoulder at Amr. He grins and holds up his
thumb, I grin in return.
     
    As we get to the
concession stand, I realize he is going to walk past it. I stop him, but he
keeps pulling me on, taking me towards the actual resort. “Triton, what are you
doing? I thought we were getting drinks?”
     
    “We will, but first there’s
something I want to tell you, and I want to do it away from the others.”
     
    Once inside the resort, he
sits me down on one of the loveseats in the lobby. He stands in front of me,
for a second, before he starts pacing. Now he has me worried. Whatever he wants
to tell me is serious. He runs
