To Hate My Stepbrother

Ava’s POV

The day for the trip came and I couldn’t be happier that I would finally get to spend some alone time with Mason.

That was until my mum made us take my cousin along, I was angry but there was no way I could let her know that or she would suspect something.

Me, Mason, Ryan, Nicole and my cousin all decided to meet at my house and set things up there before embarking on the trip.

Everyone was ready and we had to take three cars, Nicole and Ryan. I was jealous of them because I had to ride with Mason and my cousin and that left us no chance to do anything.

Mason’s friends drove another car too. I texted Nicole all through the drive as I whined about how I hated the whole set up.

She consoled me and reminded me of how she’d asked us to sneak around and how much fun I’ll have on the beach.

Giving up, I closed my eyes as Mason drove and it didn’t take long for us to get to the beach. It was there that I realized that Mason had already rented a beach house for the next two days.

“Oh my god!” Nicole shrieked and Mason laughed as she hugged him, it was a friendly and harmless hug, “you are such a genius!” She added and I rolled my eyes.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

She never really liked the idea of spending the night in the tent. I knew Nicole would act excited only to complain about the mosquitoes and other things that couldn’t let her sleep.

“Come on, let’s settle in!” Mason called and we all started packing our things to settle in.

It was a three bedroom house and Rylie, Nicole and Me picked one room while the boys picked the other two rooms since they were more than us.

“How’s it going with Mason?” Rylie asked and even Nicole seemed interested even though she already knew all there was to know about us.

I told Rylie about our relationship and she seemed genuinely happy for us. Picking up a towel, she announced that she was going to have a shower.

“Does she know that Mason and you are step siblings?” Nicole asked in a whisper. She must’ve noticed Rylie’s curiosity and things like that never pass Nicole by.

“She doesn’t and I intend to keep it that way, please.” I answered and she nodded as she made a playful gesture of her zipping her mouth and throwing away the keys.

Nicole and I talked for a while and even took pictures as we waited for Rylie to finish so we could also take a shower.

I needed a relaxing bath to make me relax and I couldn’t wait to have it. The thought of confessing to Mason also crossed my mind and I smiled.

“Someone is head over heels in love.” Rylie pointed out, I had no idea she was already out of the bathroom and Nicole was in there already.

Smiling, I brushed her off and went to the bathroom as soon as Nicole got out of it. The water was cold and it stung at first but my body soon relaxed under the shower.

Getting out of the shower, we put our makeup on and I’d wanted to wear a free flowing gown when Rylie protested before handing me a bikini.

“Where do you think you are, the church?” She commented and Nicole laughed before telling me that she liked Rylie.

Both of them took turns persuading me into putting on the ‘sexy bikini’ and finally giving in. I did as they wanted and I didn’t hate it.

I loved how it revealed my body and for the first time in a long time I wasn’t really self conscious about my body.

We finished with our makeup and we all went outside to have fun. It really was jus as fun as Mason had said it’ll be.

We ate, swam and took tons of pictures. Mason and I weren’t really able to spend much time together but what mattered the most was the fact that we enjoyed ourselves.

Later that night, we all made a fire and gathered round with some other group of people and started playing games.

It was all fun until one of them decided to act funny with me and also touch me inappropriately. Mason beat him up and it took the whole group to get Mason off the guy.

The guy’s nose was broken and his face was filled with blood while Mason only had a few bruises on his knuckles.

It was a good thing I brought a first aid kit just in case, “you really shouldn’t act so jealous and possessive of me when there’s so many people around.” I sighed when I finished cleaning his knuckle.

“I know but I just can’t help it.” He replied and I smiled as I placed my head on his shoulders.

It was really late at night and everyone had already retired to bed. I got a text from Mason asking that I meet him outside.

Without thinking, I joined him and we both took a long stroll on the beach. It was silent and peaceful, the air was calm, the stars were more than usual and they were beautiful.

The only sound made was from the wave of the water and even the sight of that was also beautiful. Giggling, we wrote our names in the sand before going into the water.

Our names got messy when the water washed it off and we laughed, “I want you to tick something off your bucket list.” Mason started, holding me tightly and closer to him.

“What’s that?” I asked, oblivious to what he meant and what he wanted me to tick off.

“I wrote skinny dipping on your list and it’s also on mine, plus, I want to see you naked so let’s do it.” He explained and my eyes almost fell off.

Disagreeing, I felt shy and my cheeks started to feel hot, Mason insisted and after a while I finally agreed. We both took our clothes off and went into the water naked.

It was really nice, Mason kissed me and the butterflies in my stomach went berserk. I really can’t wait for tomorrow.

I’d finally tell him that I love him.
