Saturday passed by in a flash. Amelia and Alex wore themselves out at the beach and doing some sightseeing. I mostly stayed on the beach, working on some emails from Mark. They acted as if they have never left the state but I knew I was causing them stress so I let it slip. 
                          
Throughout the day on Sunday, Amelia and I were going over the project plans and estimated cost, video chatting with Mark, and polishing up any loose ends. 
                          
"Amelia. Alex and I are gonna head out for dinner. Are you coming or do you want me to bring you something back?" I ask, opening the door. 
                          
"Bring me something back. I'm really tired." Amelia mumbled with a yawn. 
                          
"Alright. Get some rest." I say and she nodded her head. 
                          
I leave her room and Alex was standing there texting. "Talking to the guy you met at the beach?" I quiz and he jumped. 
                          
"Shit, Jason. Don't sneak up on people!" Alex snapped and I snicker. 
                          
"And so what if I was?" Alex retorted and I smile. 
                          
"Nothing. Just curious." I start walking and Alex followed. 
                          
"Jackass." Alex muttered and I couldn't stop the smirk coming to my face. 
                          
Shoving my hands into my pockets, I look over at Alex. "Does this person have a name?" I quiz and Alex blushed. 
                          
"Greg." Alex muttered, avoiding my eyes. 
                          
"Sounds hot." I tease and Alex's face went into a deeper shade of red. 
                          
"Shut up!" 
                          
A chuckle escaped my throat seeing him shy. I'm glad he's found someone else he likes even if it's just a bit. We decided to walk to the place and sat down. 
                          
We got out drinks and started to talk. Alex was gushing over this 'Greg' and had a bright smile on his face. "He wants to take me sightseeing tomorrow. And he's insanely sweet." Alex said before drinking his soda. 
                          
"Have a picture of him?" I quiz and Alex raised an eyebrow at me. 
                          
"Yeah . . . " He said and showed me. 
                          
I smile and say, "Have fun." I wanted to make sure he wasn't dangerous. We are in the tourist part of California so it's easy to pick people up. 
                          
"Why did you want to see?" Alex quizzed suspiciously. 
                          
I shrug my shoulders. "No reason." 
                          
"Jason, tell me!" Alex whined. I let out a laugh. 
                          
"Jason?" I look away from Alex and towards the voice of the person. My body tensed up a bit. "It is you. It's been what? Five years?" A guy said walking over. Alex glanced between us and sipped his drink like he wasn't curious. 
                          
"Hey, Damien." He flashed me a smile. His black hair was a bit messy but he was never the type to ever care about his appearance. He had that worn out look to him with his clothes. Open shirt and shorts with shades on. Typical.
                          
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming here? You know I love spending time with you." Damien stated and I smirk at him. "I don't have to tell you anything. We ended years ago." I say in a hard tone. 
                          
"Don't be like that, Jason." Damien teased and slid his hand across my back and down the front of my shirt. "How about we visit those days again? Just for one night." I bite my lip.
