I looked at Ben giggling. I didn't want to disturb Chris and Jasmine when they were sleeping.
"You're mean…Let them sleep!" I laughed.
"Awww…Come on…It's going to be fun!" Ben added laughing even more.
"No…Forget it…I'll just go to bed early tonight…By the time, I will have forgot about that snake!" I said.
"Okay…I'm going to take a walk outside, uhm…Mark…If you're still tired, you can take my place in the lounge!" Ben told him. Mark only nodded and Ben left us. I entered the room fast to get some clothes. Mark was still standing in the hallway.
"What are you going to do?" I asked him as I tried not to stare at him.
"Go back to sleep and I think that you should go, too…You really seem like you need some!" Mark answered looking at me pushing away the hair that I had on my face. His touch was making me weak in the knees and I wasn't so sure why it was doing it. I mean, I liked him, but I liked other guys and they never made me feel like that when they touched me or looked at me.
"But there's no where I can sleep anyway so I better stay up and like I said…I'll just go to bed early!" I replied.
"No…Tonight we want to do a fire on the beach…So…We could maybe sleep in the same place…I mean…I really don't mind!" He added taking my hand in his and dragging me downstairs to make sure that I couldn't say no. I had to say that I didn't mind being squeezed with Mark. He laid down first and then I joined him. Paul opened his eyes a little and had a weird smile on his face. I sighed and closed my eyes as I cuddled myself closer to Mark. Paul thought for sure that he knew me so well and he was so sure that Mark and me were meant to be, but I just knew that I wasn't the one for him. After Mark put the covers over us, he surrounded my waist with his arm under the covers. I smiled contently. I loved to feel him near me like this knowing it would be the only way to be near him. My smile disappeared at that thought and I tried to fall asleep again. Mark was right, I really needed some rest.

I smiled seeing them together like this. I knew that soon they were going to be together. I decided to leave them alone. I got up and took some clothes. I changed and walked out of the cottage. I found Ben sitting in the stairs.
"Hey man…What are you doing?" I asked him.
"Hum…Just about to go take a walk!" He answered getting up.
"Okay…Mind if I go with you…We'll leave the future couples alone!" I proposed.
"Yea sure, but I wonder about Chris…I mean…Is he going to break-up with the other or just have some fun here with Jasmine and go back to his girlfriend?" Ben asked me.
"I think that he really cares about Jasmine…So if she tells him that she likes him a lot, I'm sure he won't hesitate to break-up with his girlfriend." I answered him. He only nodded. I knew Ben a lot and I could tell that he wanted a girlfriend…BADLY, but since he doesn't really know what he wants, he goes out with all kind of girls. Maybe he hoped for some fun this week, but he was wrong. Neither of us was going to be able to have this fun, the girls weren't in love with us, they were in love with Chris and Mark. Besides, the girls are too much like my sisters to consider them as girlfriends and I have this huge crush on this girl at school that Julie can't stop teasing me with. In return, I was teasing her with Mark. At first, I was doing it not thinking that she could actually like him, but somehow, even though she was trying to deny it, her feelings for him grew even bigger. She could lie to herself, but she couldn't lie to me. I just knew everything.

Later That Day…

~ Jasmine ~

We were all in the dinning room eating our dinner. Julie and Mark were acting weird since this morning. They both seemed really embarrassed. They were more weird than usual and that was really strange. Something must have happened after the snake thingie and I was going to try to find out about it.
"So…What happened to the snake?" I asked them.
"Ben took it out of the cottage." Julie answered me taking a bite of her sandwich.
"Wow…I don't think that I would have had the courage to do that!" Chris admitted.
"Well…Not the first one I see!" Ben replied.
"So…What are we doing today?" Paul asked.
"Well…I thought that maybe we could go at the beach…I feel like swimming!" I proposed.
"Yea…That sounds fun…After dinner…We'll go to the beach!" Mark smiled.
"Okay…Let's do the dishes and then go change for the beach!" Chris added. So, we all washed our dishes and went to change. I entered the bathroom where my sister was looking at herself in the mirror.
"Trying to be beautiful for someone?" I teased her.
"What? Not at all!" She replied defensively. I laughed and she sighed. I walked toward her and arrived next to her.
"What happened this morning?" I asked her. She wasn't answering and I gave her the look meaning to tell me now or something else was going to happen.
"Mark kissed me!" She finally said.
"What?" I exclaimed.
"It's not what you think…He was dreaming about something and somehow he was probably dreaming about doing something with a girl and he rolled over me and kissed me, but I pushed him away and…That's it…He's just embarrassed to have done that, but hey…It was a dream…right?" I said.
"Is he a good kisser?" I asked her.
"What? Like I'm going to tell you that…Come on…The others are waiting for us!" She replied dragging me out of the bathroom. I laughed and I was wondering if he was really dreaming or it was a subtile way to kiss my sister?
