    “You’ll find what you’re looking for…just don’t go looking for it in all the wrong places. You know, like your friends’ exes, strip clubs, that sorta thing.” A wide grin spread across his face and we both laughed.
    “You guys coming or what?” Lily yelled from the porch.
    “Yeah!” Jesse yelled. “I’m not about to miss girls strutting around in bikinis.” He winked at me and we walked out the door.

    We packed up the coolers and took the boats and tubes out for the day. I was so happy summer was finally here. I’ve never been a big fan of winter. I would love to live somewhere where I could lay out all day long. We didn’t get back to the cabin until dinnertime. We grilled burgers and hot dogs, then everyone helped clean up and went upstairs to shower.
    “I’m exhausted.” I flopped down on the couch in the living room.
    “Me too.” Adrian sat down beside me. After spending the whole day together on the lake, I was starting to feel pretty comfortable around him.
    “So, tell me a little about yourself, Adrian.” I decided to try my best attempt at flirting, which, mind you, I hadn’t done in a really long time, so I laid my legs across his lap.
    “Well, what do you want to know?” He started rubbing my thigh and it made my heart skip a beat.
    “Um…I don’t know. Do you have any brothers or sisters?”
    “I have two brothers and two sisters, I’m the youngest.”
    “Are you close with your family?”
    “Not really. I work construction with my dad, but other than that, we don’t spend much time together. I don’t see eye to eye with them very much. They’re fine living paycheck to paycheck but I’m looking for something more. I was the first one of my siblings to go to college. I know there’s more out there for me.” He leaned forward and rested his elbows on his knees. I could tell the subject was making him feel uneasy. “What about you?”
    “I have a younger brother.”
    “Are you close with your family?” he asked.
    “Yeah.” I decided now would be a good time to try and lighten the mood. “Didn’t you say there’s supposed to be a full moon tonight? You want to walk down to the beach?”
    “Sure.” His mood perked up instantly. “I’ll go grab a blanket.” I followed him up the stairs.
    “I’m going to grab some warmer clothes.” I walked into my room and Lily walked in behind me.
    “Hey missy!” She shut the door behind her. “So what happened last night? I saw that you guys stayed back to ‘put out the fire.’” She plopped down on the bed.
    “And that’s just what we did.” Her expression dropped in disappointment. “Don’t look at me like that.” That look on her face always made me laugh.
    “You know, I don’t get you sometimes. You have this super hot guy that’s totally into you and you’re just acting like it’s going right over your head. What happened to ‘he’s different than all the other guys,’ blah, blah, blah?” She was clearly annoyed with me.
    “I don’t know.” I decided to play things cool until I could figure out what was happening with us. “I literally just went through a break up and I just met this guy. What if it’s all in my head?” I grabbed a pair of sweats out of my bag and pulled them on.
    “You can’t let an asshole like Jason have you thinking that every guy is going to hurt you like he did. Adrian is totally into you. His friends even said he’s never been like this with any other girl. You know he made that breakfast this morning because he wanted to make sure he had something you would like and then you didn’t even eat it. It’s not all in your head!” I slipped on a hoodie and zipped it up.
    “Are you serious? He made all that food for me?” I sat down on the bed next to her. Now I was the one feeling like an asshole.
    “Yep. He woke up early to go to that little store down the road and when he got there, he realized he didn’t even know what you liked, so he bought
