Chapter 16
Two days left at the beach.
Ashlee's P.O.V.
Last week I broke my ankle. They put my foot in this brace and gave me krutches. Everyone calls me gimpy now. We only have 2 days left at the beach and then we have to head home. I love it here. Waking up each morning with the sun shining through and the sound of the waves crashing into shore is soothing. I'm deffinitley going to miss it here. Back at home my college acceptance letter came in. I got accepted into college along with Ashleigh. We're both going to Penn State. The guys will live about 3 hours away. But they are worth driving those 3 hours. When we told the guys they were go happy for us.
Kevin's P.O.V.
I can't believe its almost over. I don't want to go home because who knows, I may run into Casey. I don't want to leave Gracie. I don't want us to be just a summer romance. I asked Gracie to hang out with me one more time before we leave. She agreed to meet me in the lobby. We walked down the boardwalk and went to get lunch.
"Kevin. I don't want you to leave. I'm gonna miss you so much." Gracie said.
"Yeah. I know. I don't want to leave either. I want to stay here. With you." I said closing in and kissing her gently on the lips.
When we pulled away her eyes were still shut and she looked like she was in shock. A couple seconds later she opened her eyes and smiled.
"Please don't leave me." she said making her puppy dog pout.
"Awe. I really don't want to leave but my brothers and I need to get back and start our music back up again. I'm sorry."
When we were done we walked back to the hotel. A little girl noticed me and asked me for a picture and an autograph. She was adoreable. I couldn't say no. When we got to the hotel lobby we stood there staring at each other.
"Kevin. I want you to know that I really like you. Maybe we'll see each other someday." she said teary-eyed.
"I'm always a text or call away Grace. and I want you to know that I feel the exact same way about you." i said. then i gave her one last kiss.
We parted our ways in different directions.
Ashleigh's P.O.V.
KNOCK...KNOCK...KNOCK.
I looked through the peep hole of our door. I saw someone who worked at the hotel standing out there with something in his hands. I opened the door and saw a beautiful bouqet of flowers.
"Miss. These are for you." he spoke.
"Thank you."
I closed the door and went to the table. I looked for a card and then I found it. On the card read "Ash. Meet me downstairs in the restaurant at 6:00. Wear the dress that is hanging up in your closet. - Joe."
"Wait. I never brought a dress with me on vacation." I said outloud.
I went to the closet and there hanging was the dress that Joe had talked about. It was a plain but beautiful black dress. My guess is that Joe bought it. I put the flowers in a vase and looked at the clock. It was 5:00. I had to be downstairs at 6. I went into the bathroom and curled my hair. then I put it half up and half down. I put on my make-up with a half an hour left. After that I slipped on the dress. Joe guessed my size perfectly.
