Only God Knows Why

Kaylie’s P.O.V. “Kaylie, honey. We’re going to the beach, do you want to come with?” Jimmy said to me as he followed the guys out of the house.
“I’ll come down in a little bit okay, Jimmy?”
“Okay, just don’t get yourself run over by a car...or a dog, while you’re on your way down to join us.” He said with the faintest hint of a giggle.
“Don’t worry, I won’t.” I said as I laughed and he left. I was still in my room and it was 10 in the morning. Ugh, I didn’t want to go anywhere but I decided I might as well go and do something so I don’t get fat and eat all day. I put on my regular garb, black skinny jeans, a band tee and my gray DC shoes. I put on some mascara and a flick of eyeliner and headed out the door after the guys.
I left the house with no music because Jimmy and I aren’t exactly what you’d call upper class. We were middle class like the rest of the guys which meant I do not own an Ipod or anything of that nature, I don’t even have a cell-phone, although we share a laptop.
We lived close to the beach so it’s only about a 10 minute walk. I finally arrived at the beach and Jimmy surprised the crap out of me by jumping out in front of me and picking me up off the ground and spinning me like a top in the air.
“Oh my God, Jimmy! Put me down!” I yelled at him and beated my fists on his chest. He knew I hated being picked up.
“Never!” He shouted back, “You are my little midget and no one elses!” I am only 5’6” and he is 6’4” so I suppose I am his little midget.
“James Owen Sullivan, put me down right now!” I yelled trying to hide my laughter all the while I was thrashing in his arms.
“Nope!” He yelled back at me throwing me over his shoulder and carrying me a few feet away from our previous position.
“B-b-but... Please put me down?” I asked him, stuttering on my words on purpose and then proceeding to stick my bottom lip out and look up at him with puppy dog eyes.
“Oh Kaylie, you and you’re adorableness always defeats me. Fine I’ll let you go, but on one condition.”
“What condition?”
“You need to give me a kiss on the cheek and say you love me... in front of the guys.”
“Fine, Jimmy. Where are they anyways?”
“They’re over there, closer to the ocean.”
“Okay, thanks.” We walked down to the guys together and I kissed him on his cheek once they were paying attention following it up with a simple ‘I love you’. He accepted it and then he sat down on the ground next to all of the guys.
The guys were all beautiful in their own ways. Johnny, Jimmy, and Zacky were sitting cross-legged in the sand while Brian and Matt were laying on the sand propped up on their elbows. They were all wearing shorts that came up to their knees with different prints and they were all shirtless. Johnny was smiling at some girl who had large breasts as she jogged across the beach. I couldn’t stop myself from thinking Typical Johnny as he was watching her. Zacky was looking at me but when I caught his glance he quickly looked away. He was always the shy guy in the group so that was typical. Matt was looking at the ocean and playing with the sand in his grip. Brian was the best looking out of all of the guys. His colorful tattoos were scattered all along his arms and body which made his muscles pop even more. His teeth were bright white and he had the cutest little button nose I’ve ever seen in my entire life. His chocolate eyes melted my soul although they were covered up by his sunglasses at the moment.
“Hey guys.” I said to all of them hoping for a reply from Brian.
“Hello.” They all said at once. I think I heard Zacky’s voice first but I’m not really sure.
I sat down on the ground between Zacky and Johnny. When I sat down Johnny was looking at my boobs so I slapped his face which earned me a hearty chuckle from Jimmy.
“I told you earlier that she would do that.” Jimmy said still laughing.
“No you didn’t, Jimmy. Don’t lie.” Johnny said, sitting fully upright and glaring at Jimmy who was now hiding behind his sunglasses.
“I’m not lying. I told you I taught her right.”
Johnny made a unpleased face that basically said, You’ve defeated me this time, but I’ll get you one day.
While that was going on I think I saw Zacky look at the sand and blush as I sat down. I decided I was going to put my head on his shoulder because we were best friends and he loved me as his sister. I placed my head on his shoulder and he placed his head on top of mine and I could tell he was smiling which usually meant he was blushing, yet again.
I love all the guys but Zacky was my best friend. At least my best friend not considering my brother. He’s the first person I ever told all my secrets to and to this day I think he’s still the only one that knows some of them. He was the first one, and the only one, that I told my family history to. That family history being Jimmy and I were abandoned at the ages of 15 and 19. Jimmy was 19 and I was 15.
After a few hours of hanging out with the guys Matt suggested that it was getting late and he was going to leave so he could get home. This made Johnny stand up and leave followed by Brian. And then Jimmy and I went home and left Zacky there by himself.
Zacky’s P.O.V. I stayed on the beach as everyone left; as she left. I love her so much. The way her light brown hair flows midway down her back. The way her eyes look so much like a crystal clear, blue ocean. I could honestly stare into them for days. Her figure is slender and she has really nice curves. To a lot of other guys she is nothing special, but to me she is my everything. I respect and love her for who she is. I want to cherish her for the rest of my life and I want to make her mine.
I need to go home at some point tonight but I don’t want to leave because this was the last place I’ve seen her. But I know that tonight I will go to sleep in my bed without her and I will have no regrets about the day because you can’t control fate. I know I’ll most likely never have her. I had one of the best days ever in my eyes. She sat next to me. I thought she would sit next to her brother or Brian but no...she sat next to me. She is my whole world and I never want to leave her and anyone who does is just plain stupid.
Kaylie’s P.O.V. Jimmy and I walked home from the beach at about 6:30 at night. We arrived home at 7. The outside of our house is light gray and it’s a semi large house but not anything really special. It’s only a 2 bedroom and 2 bath. We have an inground pool but the guys all pitched in so we could all share it although we considered it our pool.
The inside of our house has only tan walls. This annoyed both me and Jimmy but we didn’t have the money to pay for paint at the moment. Our kitchen has stainless steel appliances and an island in the middle. We call it the dining room table because it is where we eat and that’s the function it serves to us. The living room has an old couch from the early 90’s but it looks nice. We have a floor lamp and a fake plant in the corner. We have a box TV set but it has a large screen.
“Honey, what do you want for supper?” Jimmy called to me from the kitchen. I was in the living room trying to find something on TV.
“I don’t know. What do we have?” I asked him.
“Well, we can have frozen TV dinners, cereal, Chicken Parmesan, left overs from Brian’s party Monday. Does any of that sound good?”
“Do we have Chicken Alfredo? And stop talking to me like you’re my mother. You’re my brother, you cannot control me.” I said trying to earn a giggle from him.
He looked at me and laughed then said, “Yes we do and, for your information sweetie, I can control you because I can sit on you and make you do anything.”
I laughed and replied, “Yeah that’s true. Now go make us some food and I’ll find us something to watch on TV.” Jimmy said that was fine and I started flipping through channels. I found our favorite show because I forgot it was a Saturday. I told Jimmy it was on and he basically freaked out and I was excited too. I was so ready for a new episode of Ghost Adventures. That show is the only reason I watch Travel Channel.
I started watching the show without Jimmy and he didn’t mind because he could catch the episode when it comes on later. Jimmy finished cooking the food and we ate in the living room together. We didn’t really talk unless it was about the show. We finished up our meals and Jimmy took both of our dishes and put them in the sink. He comes back and sits down and I lay my head down on his thigh and try not to fall asleep but it is so comfortable sitting here. The last thing I remember before I fell asleep was Jimmy stroking my hair and then I was out.
