CHAPTER 26

Walking along the sea shore, I angrily splash through the waves as I reach some rocks at the other end of the beach.

I climb up them carelessly and reach the top where the platform you can walk is and lean against the metal barrier poles at the top, swinging my leg over and sit up on the top...

I glare at the sea as the waves as they crash up onto the rocks, each wave I watch I clench my hands tighter together as a mix of emotions spiral within me...and the only way I can get them out is to let one emotion take over.......anger.

Slipping of the railings I step onto the rocks, and lower myself down onto it as I pick up some loose stones and throwing them out to the sea...

It’s not my fault....is it?....I didn’t know Tom was watching.....but then again, I should have thought he was at least watching....I was chasing Joe, carelessly across the rocks...I should have known he would try to copy...

God damnit I’m so damn stupid!....

I bounce the small rock up and down in the palm of my hand before throwing it out towards the sea, glaring as I do...annoyed at myself more than anything...

It is my fault....it has to be. Evan wouldn’t shout at me if it wasn’t...he hardly ever does...

Sighing with irritation I throw another rock forcefully, watching it hit the large rocks at the bottom and bounce off splashing into the water...

“There’s no need for violence...what has that poor rock ever done to you...?” I hear a voice chuckle suddenly causing me to jump and whip my head around...

I frown turning back around and tossing another rock into the sea “Go away...” I mumble not wanting to talk to him.

“Hmm....well that’s not nice..” He says I can hear the smirk in his voice and he comes closer...

What the hell is he doing here?....why is he here?..

“Tom’s alright by the way...” He says after a moment of silence and sits down on the rock only a few metres away from me....

I narrow my eyes at nothing and throw another stone, a little too forcefully I think.... “Good...” I mumble relieved he is...but still have guilt swimming in my gut...

“I think your mom was on about taking him home or something...as well as the little ones...” Noah carries on to talk, oh so casually and looking out to the sea his shaggy hair blowing in the slight breeze....

I don’t say anything...just continue to throw stones to the water...what is he even doing here?....

“Why are you here?” I voice my thoughts frowning and glance at him from the corner of my eye slightly startled as I see he’s already looking at me...

He smirks lightly and leans back on his hands, my eyes just realises he’s shirtless and still in his swim trunks...

I look away from him and concentrate on the jaggared rock in front of me waiting for his answer...

I see him shrug “Well....no one really noticed you went so thought I’ll come and get you..”

I roll my eyes “Funny” I mutter sarcastically as I know that’s a lie as Seth saw me go anyways...

Noah lets out a short laugh and changes position, shifting closer to me “I know I’m hilarious” He smirks cockily and I just roll my eye again, carelessly throwing another stone...

He chuckles deeply from his chest and picks up some more stones and shrugs again “I just am..” He says throwing one of his stones..

Pfft....that’s real helpful...

We sit in silence for a little while....but I seriously don’t get why he is here...he annoys that crap out of me...yet...he’s sat just there...

“I bet I can throw one further than you...” Noah breaks the silence and I glance at him to see him smirking at me challengingly and tossing a stone in his hand...

I raise an confused eyebrow at him....is he serious...?

He smirks jumping up and standing up on the rock “Come on!....I bet I can throw it further..” He grins throwing his arm back and launching the small stone into the air and I watch it fly through the sky and drop down, a good few metres from the end of the rocks...

“HA!...come on....Bet you can’t beat it that..” He smirks picking up some more stones and glancing to me...

I shake my head lightly and stand up, brushing off my pants and picking up some stones “You’re on...” I smirk lightly as I take position and aim throwing the stone with force towards the sea....

And that’s how we spend the next, who knows how long....having a throwing stone contest...and both getting very competitive....and Noah grinning and smirking everytime he got one further than me..

“HAHA! I won!” I cheer smirking at him in victory as I manage to get my last stone further than his in the water....

Noah smirks slightly shaking his head in possibly denial “Yeah...yeah...congrats” He smirks teasingly...

I roll my eyes but lightly smile as I turn around on the rock, heading back up to the rails...

I hate to admit it...but Noah id actually...cheer me up a bit?....if that’s what you could call it.....but he did something....

“Hey.....I think we should head back now you know” Noah calls out as he climbs over the rocks to where I am...

I glance back at him, seeing him as he jumps over some rocks, noticing how tanned he looks......I blink and shake my head....god!....don’t look...

“Y-yeah...” I mumble turning away and start walking away and back down onto the sand.

Noah jumps down after me and smiles....an actual smile that shows slight dimples I never knew he had...

“Yeah.....oh...and don’t worry...Evan’s not really mad at you....he was just fussing over Tom” He says as we start walking back along the beach near the water...a gap between us...

“Hmm...” I hum a response frowning again as I look to my feet as I walk....in all honestly...I forgot for those few moments about Evan.....

“He is....promise...” Noah smiles...a bit more cheekily than before, not is normal one “And it wasn’t your fault princess.....” He trails off a sly smirk appearing on his face...

I narrow my eyes as he’s started up that nickname calling again...why?...why does he do that when he didn’t before?

“Don’t call me that..” I mutter picking up my past a bit more “I told you before a million times to stop..” I huff...

I hear him chuckle and he easily catches me up “Or what Babycakes?” He says more quietly the last part and is obviously holding back a chuckle...

I clench my jaw and pick up my past again “Just stop!” I snap a little...

He flashes me his signature smirk and once again catches up with me “Are you trying to out walk me?” He smirks...

Yes...I think instantly as I glare at him and not bothering to reply walk faster once more, my feet splashing on the wet sand...

He chuckles “Okay then...be like that..” He shrugs and before I can blink he takes of running ahead of me...and a few metres away he turns around running back wards with that annoy smirk on his face again..

“Come on then, out run me chipmunk!” He calls back challengingly and smirking...

I growl slightly at the bloody nickname and without thinking twice I break out into a sprint, running past him and keep going....just to prove him wrong....

“Whooa oohh...” I hear him chuckle behind me as he then starts sprinting to catch me up...and pretty soon we’re like running at neck and neck along the shore back to the other end....and I can’t help but let slip a small smirk/smile onto my lips as he seems to be about the same speed as me...

Nearly at the end and my legs tiring...Noah suddenly out of nowhere sprint forward and beats me....

“Whooa hoo! Haha I won!” He grins smirking at me as I jog to a stop breathing hard....when he doesn’t seem one bit out of breath!

I smirk lightly at him rolling my eyes and shaking my head as I walk up to the softer sand.....seeing everyone else...

Controlling my breathing I see that Noah was right....Mom is packing up her things...so it looks like she is going to take the younger ones home......

“Lex?!” I turn my head at the sound of my twin’s voice and see Seth walking towards me looking slightly concerned as he gets closer...

“You okay?..”He asks hesitantly his eyes flicking to where Noah is back by the shore, joined by Hayden....

I nod “Yeah...”I breath out as I’m still trying to catch my breath...

Seth nods smiling lightly and comes closer to me “Tom’s alright Lex...he just lost balance and fell...” He whispers his arm snaking over my shoulders as we walk up the beach...

“Yeah...”I nod scanning the beach for the 4 year old...

“And Evan’s sorry....” He whispers a small amused tone in his voice as he says “But won’t admit that straight away as you know...”

I lightly crack a smile at that, yeah...I do know...but I still can’t shake that feeling...

“Mom said she’s gunna take the others home...but we can stay if we want and get Blake to take us home later..” Seth says

I smile lightly and nod “Sounds good..” He squeezes my shoulders lightly in a hug and pulls away smiling, tugging my hand as we make our way over to mom...

I follow but my eyes gaze back down the beach...meeting with a pair of dark brown ones and I frown in confusion as his own gaze back.....

What is with him?
