The rest of the evening consisted of eating, swimming, and having drinks. I could tell that all of us were starting to have too many drinks, especially Monica and Trace who had ended up going to bed earlier than us. I didn't mind the fact that they had left Justin and I alone though. I found it easy to talk to Justin. We ended up talking about everything, including our childhood until how we ended up where we are today.

 I felt like I actually got to really learn a lot about him besides the fact that he is a singer, actor, and clothing line owner.  Surprisingly, we really have a lot in common. He likes to golf like I do, and he is from the south like I am. I am from Texas, which is more south than Tennessee, but most people that live in Los Angeles are from around the California area.

"We should go play golf one day. You know, I am about to open up a small course outside of my hometown Memphis." He said.

"Yea that would be fun. I haven't played golf in forever...not many of my friends play golf. I usually play when I go home to visit my parents. My dad is the one who got me into the game when I was in high school."

"I try to play as much as I can. Completely changing the subject, it amazes me that you had no intentions of becoming a model. And how you just got discovered by going to one of your friend's photoshoots is pretty awesome...of course you are beautiful girl so I'm not really surprised that they offered you that job as soon as they saw you. What would you have done if you hadn't got into modeling?"

"Yea it was pretty crazy how I got into it. I had intended to just go to college and get a degree in communications and hopefully become a reporter someday, but modeling seemed like it would be really fun and exciting so I decided to try it. My parents only agreed to let me do it if I finished high school and college and got a degree and so I did. I took online classes through a local college at home and finished my degree in communications."

"That's amazing that you were able to accomplish those things and have a career as a model at the same time...your parents must have stayed on your ass a lot hahaha"

"Yea they always made sure I was doing good in school, or they would've made me come home. I never thought that when I was 21 graduating with a college degree that I would be living in Los Angeles and making a living from modeling 2 years later."

"Yea I never thought by the time I was 26 I would be doing the jobs that I am now. I couldn't imagine doing anything else but what I do now. The only flaw I have is the invasion of privacy, but you get used to it when you have been in the industry since you were 15."

As we continued laying there on the lounge chairs, I couldn't help but notice how good looking Justin really was. He was just in basketball shorts and a t-shirt, but he looked better than any guy I had ever been around, including Alex. Maybe Alex wouldn't be so hard to get over?  He never did cross my mind when I was talking to Justin. He must've caught me in my deep thoughts.

"Wanna take a walk on the beach?" He asked.

"Yea, sure."

As we were walking Justin started to talk about our past relationships. I think he could tell I was sort of surprised when he mentioned it.

"So, what happened between you and your ex-boyfriend? Not trying to be nosey or anything..."

"Well, let's just say Alex wasn't the most faithful person ever. I mean we got along really good and everything but he was in a band and I guess he couldn't handle the fact that he had a girlfriend and girls would throw themselves at him all the time."

"Oh really? That sucks. Seems to me like he lost a great girl."

He was really trying to be slick and flirt with me, so I figured, what the hell? Why not flirt back, even though I don't plan on getting myself caught up in anything serious, flirting couldn't hurt right? I mean I am kind of drunk and if I was going to get the courage to flirt, now would be the time.

"Yea...what about you and your ex? How did she let such a hot guy get out of her hands?" I smirked.

After that comment I had noticed that we had stopped walking and were standing next to each other. He was looking out at the ocean and I could tell it kind of bothered him when he mentioned his ex.

"Actually the same thing kind of happened to me. She and I had been together for a few years and she was an actress. She played in movies, kissed other guys in them and it never bothered me. I was never really the jealous type. I think she took advantage of that fact and figured I would think that it was just her co-star and it was part of the plan to kiss and stuff. I flew up to Vancouver where she was filming a movie and surprised her...well I was the one who got the surprise when I found her co-star in her hotel room that night. I ended up flying back to L.A that night and breaking up with her."

"Oh gosh... that is bad. I found out about Alex because one of the girls he cheated on me with called me and sent me texts that they had sent. I couldn't imagine actually catching them together. You must have taken it really hard."

"Yea at first I was pissed, she kept calling and saying that it wasn't what it looked like and all this bullshit. I didn't take her back. Ever since we've been broken up though I've gotten this reputation of being a player, but I'm not. I mean yea, I've went out with a couple of different girls since then but I've never once led any of them on and let them know from the beginning that I wasn't ready for a serious relationship. She would call me every time a headline or picture would end up in a magazine and say that I must've been cheating on her too since I was out with different girls so quickly."

"There's nothing wrong with going out and meeting new people. I mean she had no right to get mad if you did...she cheated on you. I'm glad Alex and I aren't famous enough to have paparazzi following us. It would make dealing with the breakup a lot harder."

"Yea paparazzi sucks...I can't even go out to eat with a friend. If I do, she is considered my new girlfriend or something."

As we were talking I noticed how much closer Justin and I were to each other. He was so close that I could feel him even though we weren't touching. I don't know if it was the drinks talking or what but the way he was talking to me didn't make anything else seem to matter.

"You know," he said, "you are one of the first girls that I have actually gotten to truly like in a long time. You are really fun to be around and talk to. Most girls that go out are fake and try anything to make a good impression, and it's a real turn-off, but you don't. I mean you don't even try to be anyone but yourself..."

"Thank you. Trying to act like someone else to impress someone sounds too hard for me. I would forget about the act and show my real self and get caught haha."

"I'm really glad I came on this trip."

"Me too, I've had a lot of fun so far."

Before I knew it, Justin was leaning in to me. The look on his face was so seductive yet careful. The way the moon was shining on the beach made him look even hotter. Finally, his lips reached mine. His lips were so soft. He kissed me so gentle, and when he slid his tongue in, he acted like he wanted my permission before kissing me any deeper. I gladly gave in to his kiss, attacking his tongue with mine. I could taste the beer he had drank previously  and the way his cologne mixed in with the ocean smell turned me on even more. His hands rested in my hair and on my lower back. I couldn't help but place mine on his t-shirt above his abs. At that moment, I wanted nothing more than to just kiss him. Maybe I wouldn't be able to just hang out with Justin. He is the best kisser I could remember kissing, so I'm sure he isn't bad at other things.
