About the Author

Jewel sighed, giving her phone the stink eye as it rang for the tenth time in the last hour. She kicked the cellphone off the beach chair and bit her nail.

The sea. The beautiful sea in front of Jewel couldn’t evoke any depth or feeling within her heart. Maybe what they called her at school was true. Ice Princess, cold-blooded and frozen faker. She fought against tearing up at all the things she knew to be true. She couldn’t feel, couldn’t love, was only a pretty face with nothing in between. The large beach home that shared a wraparound deck and a middle wall with a neighbor had seen better days. It was perfect, a temporary escape from all the drama at home. And she needed an escape, more than anyone knew.

You should just answer the thing. Stop stringing him along, her cousin Megs teased, and tapped Jewel’s dark tan leg with her pale foot.

"Easy for you to say. You don’t have a boyfriend who’s scrumptious, head of the football team, and everything a girl should want. But he doesn’t ‘do’ it for you." Jewel rolled her eyes and huffed, plopping back in her beach chair. She tied her dirty-blonde hair up into a knot. Her curly bang’s pale highlights clashed to her darker hued skin tone which made most people wonder if she’d dyed her hair.

Nobody ever does it for you. Megs burst out laughing. What is he, like boyfriend number five this year? And girl, you’ve been known to make the big guys cry. What do you do with them? Megs’ platinum blond hair appeared to glow in the sun.

Jewel wrinkled her nose at Megs when Amy, her best-friend, came onto the deck of the beach house. This getaway home was an Aunt of Amy’s. Luckily for them, the lady mentioned she would be scarce this summer, but promised to drop in and check on them from time to time. Amy’s dark skin and light brown eyes were accented by her bright orange bikini and she put her hand on her hip, with a smirk and a shake of her head.

Amy sat on the chair next to Megs and joined in laughing. She’s right. Didn’t you make the star player on the basketball team cry and actually lose a game because you dumped him only minutes before the start? I mean, to do it by text to me is plain skeezy.

Jewel slid on her shades. I didn’t want to do it in person. She shrugged trying to appear nonchalant, but a shiver trickled through her. None of those jocks are what they seem when they are winning a game or smiling the first time they met me. I did them a favor. I couldn’t give them what they wanted. Her friends giggled louder. Oh, you don’t know how bad that actually makes me feel. They snickered and she groaned, Shut up! I’m— The phone rang again.

She put a finger to her lips, lifted her shades and glared to her friends. With an exhale, she grabbed the phone and answered it. Hey Matt? Jewel didn’t need to check the number; she’d known it was him. His ringtone had the school song, his favorite that he sang off-key to her every time he got on a roll bragging about himself.

Matt’s deep voice
