Isaac pulled the truck up next to Jessy's white mustang and parked. "They're in the water already. Last one in has to clean up after dinner." Jessy screamed dropping her pants and unbuttoning her top revealing her Zac bikini as Isaac's mouth dropped open. "Isaac Hanson that's rude." Mandy yelled. "Oh bro it happened to all of us. Don't hold it against her because she's beautiful. She doesn't even think so. She's okay, she says." Zac said getting out of his clothes racing after Jessy. Isaac watched as Jessy slowed so Zac could catch her and they laughed together going under, coming up lips locked. Isaac shook his head and looked at Mandy who was back in the truck arms folded. "You coming in or not?" He asked. "You don't look at me that way." Mandy said. "Mandy get real, Jessy is hotter than most models I've seen, admit it. Who do you know that looks like that, anyone? No. Me neither. So why not look." Isaac asked. "It's not that you looked. It's the way you looked that bothered me." Mandy said. "I'll bite how did I look, I was shooting for a man looking at a beautiful woman. Even if that woman is the love of his younger brother's life, the mother of his future neices and nephews." Isaac asked. "You're saying you had a right to look at her that way." Mandy asked curtly. "Jessy. Hey Jessy come here a minute sis?" Isaac said and Jessy shrugged her shoulders to Zac what questioned and raced toward Isaac. "What big bro?" Jessy asked squeezing the water from her hair. "Jessy I just wanted you to know that I think you the most beautiful woman I've ever seen." Issac said looking her up and down again. "Oh Isaac you old sweet talker. What is it you really wanted?" Jessy asked. "I'm serious. I just wanted you to know that's how I just looked at you. Like you the most beautiful, sensual woman I've ever seen." Isaac said seriously. "Oh Isaac. Thank you even though I think you're touched in the head." Jessy said hugging him. "Gotcha." she laughed at the wet marks on his shirt. "You little" he said lunging after her and she raced back to the water screaming "Zac" and she got on his shoulders for a game of water chicken against Chele and Tay. "She doesn't mind, her boyfriend, my brother doesn't mind, I don't mind. Mandy I'd say this was your problem, not mine. You coming in or not?" Isaac asked and when he received no reply he headed to the lake as the game ended in a tie. "We're swimming across the lake want to come. Chele's rowing in case we don't make it." Jessy asked and Isaac joined and the four made their way. "Man she does swim like a fish. How in Michigan?" Zac asked Chele. "Her Gramma has an indoor pool. Jessy swims year round Zac." Chele explained. "That's why" he said watching Jessy walk up on the shore, making a sand castle. "A woman's body enjoying a child's game." Isaac said. "Damn straight, as she would say." Taylor said. "I'm so lucky she loves me. Jessy loves me." Zac screamed and Jessy turned smiling and making her way to him. "Who told you I love you?" Jessy asked. "You did." Zac said. "I did. Well it must be true then." Jessy said wrapping her arms around him and kissing him with all she felt for him in her heart. Zac took them under the water and they came back up still kissing. Jessy wrapped her legs around Zac's waist pressing tighter and tighter as she moaned when his tongue entered her mouth and darted straight to the back as far as it would reach. "Man I can't handle this. I'm going to row back and see if Mandy is done being mad." Isaac said. "Mad? Why?" Chele asked taking Tays hand and stepping out of the boat. "I gawked at Jessy when I saw her for the first time and Mandy didn't care for it. I tried to explain it was just a man looking at a beautiful woman. But she didn't buy it. Then I told Jessy what I had done and she was like fine with it, said I was touched in the head. I sort of told Mandy it was her problem not mine. I mean Jessy, Zac and I don't care, she's the only one making a big deal out of it." Isaac explained. "Ouch. What a slap in the face you gave her." Chele said. "I guess I did. Maybe I should go apologize." Isaac said. "Isaac be honest with me. How do you feel about Mandy?" Chele said sitting next to him and taking his hand as Tay sat behind her wrapping his arms around her waist playing with her belly button ring. "I look at the two of you and I see the love you have for each other in your eyes, Jessy loves Zac so much she cries happy tears. I want that and Mandy isn't it. Jesus what a dope. Zac was right I gave up a summer tour for someone I didn't care to see, because I was so relieved to be away from her. I"m glad this is happening now, tonight was suppose to be the night she'd finally decide we could make love. Shit I bought a whole box of condoms, praying for the jackpot. That she would be the one that I loved more than anything. I know that isn't going to happen. Damn, I'm the oldest why do you two get the girls of your dream and not me?" Isaac complained. "Oh Isaac, she's out there. We'll help you find her. Won't we hun?" Chele asked. "Damn straight as Jessy would say. Bro be grateful you don't have to deal with the fact that you had made love to her. You would have stayed with her, I know you would and you would have spent your entire life being miserable because that's what marriage is to us. It's forever like mom and dad." Taylor said rubbing Ike's shoulder. Chele shuddered at his words, wondering if Taylor was still a virgin. "Oh God he'll never forgive me" she thought her heartbreaking. "Thanks Chele. You saved me big time. I would have apologized and probably ruined my whole life later tonight. I'm going to tell her before I cause any more pain." Isaac said headed to the boat. "Isaac. What's the matter big brother." Jessy asked seeing the pain in his eyes and hugging him tight. "Nothing lil sis, it'll be okay. I'm headed to make sure of that." Isaac said. "Remember we love you." Jessy said as Zac wrapped his arms around her asking what was wrong. "He didn't say hun. Just nothing, it'll be okay and he was going to make sure of it. Look at Chele. She knows. Hey sis what's up?" Jessy asked as Chele walked away at a quick pace and Jessy sprinted after her. "Sis what's wrong?" Jessy asked catching her. Chele explained what Tay had said to Isaac, assuming that Tay also was a virgin. "He will never understand. I just know he won't." Chele said unable to hold the tears back anymore. "Sis You are so wrong. I know it in my heart you're wrong. Taylor isn't that way, he's one of the most sensitive guys I know and his brothers are right up there with him and his Daddy. I know you don't believe me. Look see what his Mom gave me. Do you know what Tay said when he asked and I told him about, he said he wished he had seen it first so he could have given it to me because that's how he feels about me and Grampa. He'll understand and respect you for it, not condemn you for it. I know it in my heart. Please believe me." Jessy pleaded as Chele pulled away from her and shook her hung head no. She turned to walk back, knowing she'd tell Taylor if he asked so she headed in the lake and started swimming back. "Jessy don't you're too tired to swim it now. Jessy." Zac screamed after her jumping in the boat. "Jessy no. Jessy come back I'll tell him." Chele pleaded. "Tell him what?" Taylor asked. "God what have I done?" Chele cried. "Zac won't let anything happen to your sister Chele he loves her as much as I love you. Tell my why your heart is broken when I love you so much it hurts." Taylor asked. "You think you do, see you think I'm someone I'm not. I am no angel." Chele said and then the story began how she and Matt had been together since she moved to Charleston when she was five. They were alway together, neighbors and as they grew older they dated, everyone sure they were destined to be together forever, everyone except Chele. "It just wasn't what I dreamed so I told him, I broke his heart that day, and a month later his best friend told me he had luekemia and had three to six months to live. I cried for almost a week before I ended up in this church a couple of blocks from the hospital begging to know what to do, I felt so guilty if I hadn't told hi maybe he never would have gotten sick you know. All of sudden I didn't feel guilty any more, I went to the hospital and told him I had been wrong, I was just scared about his wanting to make love to me but I wasn't afraid anymore. Taylor I made love to Matt, I'm not a virgin. When I got to the hospital the next morning they told me he had died in his sleep. I moved out here to get away from the pain, but it all came back the day I met you. You and Jessy are the only two people who know and I'd like it to stay that way. Please." Chele said no longer crying. "Chele that's the most loving thing I've ever heard. Even though you knew it wasn't right for you, you didn't let him die thinking he was unloved, he didn't die not knowing the joy of loving someone. That would have been sad, but you took something sad and made it beautiful. I love you and respect you for that. Chele if you'll let me someday, hopefully, I'd love to be the first man to love you that you love, truly love as I love you." Taylor asked taking her hands in his, "Chele you know I told you the first time I saw you I said look at that Angel, you just proved me right. An Angel here on earth bringing joy to a dying soul so he could go in peace knowing the joy of being loved. I suddenly feel so undeserving of your love but I'll ask for it anyway because I know you're the only one for me." Taylor shared. "Oh Taylor I've know since the first time I laid eyes on you. And when you lifted me off that fence I thought I'd died and gone to heaven the way your touch made me feel. Taylor I love you too." Chele said lost in his eyes. "This is all your fault." Mandy screamed."What are you talking about?" Jessy asked bent over trying to catch her breath. "You know what I'm talking about you bitch." Mandy said slapping her face and grabbing her hair. "You picked the wrong chick to fight fool." Jessy said grabbing her wrists applying pressure until Mandy released her hair, twisting an arm and applying pressure until Mandy screamed "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Forgive me." "What are you talking about is what I asked before you foolishly slapped me, now answer me right now." Jessy said as Isaac and Zac stood in awe watching. "Isaac broke up with me because of you." Mandy said. "I don't think so, Isaac broke up with you because of you not me. He's my brother and if you think anything else you're really sick, sick in the head. So what's your problem?" Jessy asked. "He wants to love someone like Zac loves you and he doesn't feel that way about me, and because of you he knows that know." Mandy said. "Well I'm sorry I guess you were right it is my fault but instead of being mad you should be glad. I'd die being with Zac if didn't truly love me. Someday when you find true love you'll be so glad I came into your life and saved you from making a big mistake." Jessy said walking to the cooler grabbing ice and putting it on her face. "Jessy hun let me see. Wow that must hurt. Here how's this?" Zac asked making an ice pack in a towel and taking her in his arms. "Better" Jessy whispered cuddling to listen to his heart beating and soon she was asleep.
