Part 8 (Chapters 13-16)

Fishing:)

   Will is at work when Ronnie comes to find him. He greets her and she flips on him about not having the aquarium come put a cage on the nest. He went to her house and talked to her. She just argued with him. Poor guy. Can't win for losing. He decided he liked her. Like there was no doubt about it. That night after he got off of work he went to her house because he had decided that he was going to turtle-sit. They talk for a little while. They leave the nest for a little while and go for a walk. Neither of them really talked but it wasn't uncomfortable for them not to. When they got back Ronnie went inside while Will unpacked his truck. He had everything he needed to stay outside. The next morning Jonah spilled the beans that Will was the one who had told her dad and the officer that she had been at Bowers Point. She got mad of course. It seems like she gets mad at everything! He convinced her to go with him somewhere. He took her to the aquarium where he volunteered. What he really wanted to show her was the loggerhead turtle that the aquarium had rescued. After the aquarium he took her fishing. He told her what he did on the weekends and she told him what she did. They had very different lives. When she caught a fish she was upset cause she was afraid he would die so they had to throw him back in. They had loads of fun it seems like. A good ole' southern boy. How cute.
   Somehow Will had convinced Ronnie to come to his volleyball game. She usually wasn't that great a picking guys but Will seemed to be alright. Although she really didn't know why he liked her out of all the girls he could have had. Suddenly Wills ex, Ashley, showed up. She egged Ronnie on to think that she was just another girl on Wills list. Ronnie left the game and went home. She started packing when she got there because she wanted to leave. She couldn't though. Her dad told her she couldn't leave because of the pending charges. Will came to her house and tried to talk to her and she just slammed the door in his face. After that Ronnie helped her dad with dinner. Oh she's connecting with her dad!!!! Yay! After dinner she was trying to read but she was distracted by Will who was still sitting outside. Jonah couldn't ignore him though! Jonah bugged her until she finally went outside to talk to Will. She told him to leave but he wanted to know what had happened. He knew that Ashley had said something to her. When she didn't say anything he gave up and left. That's when Ronnie noticed the fireball down the beach. Marcus is such a creep!!!! And Ronnie needs to stay with Will. He's cool!
   Blaze wanted Marcus to go eat with her. Of course he didn't want to so he blew her off. He was sick of her and he wanted Ronnie. He started to walk down the beach and he lit a fireball. He headed toward Ronnie's house but when he got there Will was there too. Will walked off though and he knew Ronnie had seen him. She just stood there with defiance and he did not like that...at all. Then she walked back inside. Marcus was really angry. Ok so Marcus needs some dagum psychiatric help!
   When Ronnie came back in Steve could tell she was upset. Jonah told him that her and Will had had a fight. Steve of course flashes back to his childhood. He hadn't had many friends when he was 12. By that time the piano had become his life. Pastor Harris had taught him to play. He also taught him that when you talk to God you talk to Him as if he is a friend. After he put Jonah to bed he stayed there and just watched Ronnie sleep for a moment. When he woke up the next morning he had the urge to play the piano. He sat at the kitchen table and pretended he had a piano in front of him and he started playing. He got lost and he decided to go for a walk and talk to God. So I think Steve should uncover the piano and play again. Maybe that's just me.
