“Okay fair enough, Ferris wheel?” Scott asks.

“It’s like you read my mind” you smirk.

The two of you quickly finished your ice creams, regretting the decision slightly when you both got brain freeze.

Once you got up on the Ferris wheel Scott started pointing out all the different sights. From the typical tourist ones to his personal ones.

“And that cafe right there is where me and Steve had our first date” Scott says pointing it out.

“Aww just like a movie” you smirk making him poke his tongue out at you.

“Hey, stop teasing, just because I’m happily in love and you’re single!” Scott laughs shoving your shoulder playfully.

“Whoa low blow!” You complains shoving him back.

“Okay sorry, sorry! But hey look you are literally on Baywatch beach! You could easily pick up some guy, even if it’s just for the attention and you don’t take it anywhere” Scott laughs gesturing out to the beach below you.

“I dunno Scott” you sigh shaking your head slightly.

“Stop that! you are a catch, anyone would be blind to not see that” Scott says nudging your shoulder.

“Come on when we get off this thing lets go sunbathe and scope out some guys” he smirks as the Ferris wheel begins to turn again.

Once back on the beach you and Scott find a spot to relax. Once you laid out your towel, you removed your vest and shorts to reveal the bikini you had on underneath.

You hear Scott wolf whistle making you roll your eyes as you sit down on the towel and start applying sun cream.

“Some guys are already checking you out” Scott whispers.

You roll your eyes again as you lie down “well whatever they’re doing I’m gonna relax for a bit, maybe get a tan” you say getting comfortable putting in a single headphone so you could listen to music at the same time as listening to Scott.

A little while later you could feel yourself getting a little too warm for comfort. Getting up you pass your phone to Scott before heading out to the water ignoring Scott’s plea for you to have a Baywatch moment.

You sigh in content as you step into the pleasantly cool water. Walking in some more until the water was at your hips you dive into the water swimming out. You couldn’t lie, the water was incredible, crystal clear too.

After a little while you swim back to shore. As your head breaks the surface you brush your hair out of your face as you walk out of the water.  As you walk back to Scott you can see him smirking. You raise a brow at him unsure why he was looking at you that way.

“Hey its (Y/N) right?” You hear someone say to your left.

You turn in the direction the voice was coming from to see good-looking black-haired man smiling at you.

“Yeah it is, sorry do I know you?” You ask turning to face him fully. You look him up and down, he did look familiar, but you still didn’t know where from.

He runs his hand through his curly hair with an awkward chuckle.

“I’m Jake, I just joined the department at UCLA” he smiles holding out his hand.

“Oh yeah Dr. Bennett! How are you” you smile shaking his hand, noting the friendly squeeze he gives your hand.

“Call me Jake please, I’m doing good enjoying LA so far” he smiles, and you couldn’t help but notice how sweet his smile was.

“That’s good, I know it was a bit overwhelming when I first arrived so if you even need a hand just give me a shout” you offer with a smile.

“That would be great, how about we grab coffee some time and you can warn me about everything” he smirks making you laugh.

You bite your lip slightly, was he technically asking you out. He was very good looking and seemed really sweet. You’d heard about him too, all the girls in his class fawned over him.

“Yeah that sounds great, let me know when you’re free and we’ll organise something” you agree.

“Here put in your number and I’ll text you, I’d rather text than email” he says passing you his phone with a chuckle.

You laugh at the idea of him asking you out via the university emails, quickly adding your number to his phone and passing it back.

“I better get back to my friend, but I look forward to you text” you smirk taking a couple step backs toward Scott.

“I won’t make you wait too long I promise, there might even be a text waiting for you when you get back” he smirks typing away on his phone.

“See you later” you smile heading back up the beach towards Scott.

“Someone liked your Baywatch moment” Scott smirks when you sat down next to him.

“Shut up” you scoff hoping you weren’t blushing too obviously.

“Who was he?” Scott asks scooting closer to you.

“Guy from work, new to the department” you tell him.

“You gonna show him the ropes” he says with a suggestive smirk.

You laugh shoving his shoulder making him laugh.

“Shut up we’re just gonna go get coffee” you tell him reaching into your bag to grab your phone. Smiling when you saw a text from Jake.

“Is that him?” Scott asks knowingly.

You roll your eyes not giving him the satisfaction of an answer.

“Told you you’d pull a guy here” Scott smirks making you chuckle.

“Just be happy for me alright” you laugh shaking your head.

Later you and Scott were walking back to the car laughing away when Scott saw Chris walking down the street.

“Hey Chris!” Scott calls out grabbing Chris’ attention.

“Oh hey guys, had a nice day on the beach?” He asks as he heads over.

“Yeah it was great, (Y/N) pulled a hottie” Scott smirks.

“Scott!” You complain hitting his shoulder. You glance back at Chris to see him avoiding your gaze jaw clenched.

“It’s just a coffee date with a guy from work” you explain quickly.

Chris nods his head slightly “well um good for you, I’ve got to head off running late for a meeting” Chris says not waiting before heading past you down the street.

“That was weird” Scott mumbles as the two of you watch Scott go.

A couple weeks had passed, and you and Jake texted often and even gone out for coffee a couple times. You weren’t dating per se, you enjoyed his company, and he was definitely a catch. You just weren’t sure if you were that attracted to him. The jury wasn’t out yet.

You were walking through the streets of LA on the way to meet Scott and Steve for brunch. You doubted that Chris would be there this time, you hadn’t seem much of him recently actually. When you arrive you see Scott and Steve waiting for you outside. The three of you walk through the restaurant toward the garden in the back. As you step out into the garden you see Chris and a girl you didn’t recognise walking toward the door.

“Chris? What you doing here?” Scott asks glancing over to the girl.

“Oh hi guys, this is Circe we were just having brunch” Chris says nodding to the girl on his left. Looking at her made you instantly self-conscious. She was absolutely stunning, could easily be a model if she wasn’t already,

“Oh is this your brother! Its lovely to meet you Scott” Circe beams shaking Scott’s hand vigorously .

“Uh yeah nice to meet you” Scott says when he finally gets his hand back.

“We better head off, see you all later” Chris smiles taking Circe’s hand and leading her out the restaurant.

“Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” Steve asks as the three of you sit down at the table.

“What?” You ask unsure.

“That Circe looks like (Y/N)’s double” Scott exclaims.

“Yes exactly! It’s so weird isn’t!” Steve laughs.

“What are you on about she look nothing like me, she looks like a supermodel!” You exclaim. Circe may have the same hair colour and eyes as you, but she had none of your imperfections. If she was your double, you were the dollar store version of her.

“Oh please don’t say that, you are gorgeous! Do you think they were on a date, she looked very handsy” Steve says waving you off?

“Maybe, or it’s like a PR walk or something, give a name to the mystery girl” Scott says shrugging his shoulders.

“They would have eaten at the front of the restaurant if it was PR though” Steve points out.

“Well whatever it is, it isn’t our business” you say a bit sharper than you meant to.

“Oh what’s gotten you in a mood” Scott exclaims raising a brow at you.

“I’m just hungry so let’s eat okay” you say grabbing the menu to look through.

“Steve we better be quick (Y/N) gets hangry very quickly” Scott smirks making you roll your eyes at him and give his shoulder a shove.

“Quick she’s already turned to violent!” Scott laughs shoving you back.

While you all ate Scott and Steve continued to gossip, having already found Circe’s Instagram page and twitter. You pushed food around your plate as they discussed her Instagram photos, showing you all the ones of her in bikinis that left little to the imagination. You had to act interested in everyone as this was a topic that despite your best efforts they would not move on from.

“Hello earth to (Y/N)” Scott says waving his hand in front of your face.

“Huh what” you say snapping out of your train of thought.

“I asked you how did your date with Dr Dreamy go yesterday?” Scott asks putting emphasis on the Dr Dreamy.

“His name is Jake and it’s just been coffee not a date” you say waving it off.

“Oh it is so too a date! I saw how he was checking you out on the beach!” Scott says wiggling his eyebrows.

You roll your eyes at him “they’ve been good, he’s easy to talk to, funny, cute, we get along well” you tell them.

“I feel a but coming” Steve says taking a sip of his coffee.

“There isn’t a but, I just don’t know how I exactly feel about him” you sigh.

“You’re not attracted to that hunk of a man?” Scott asks shocked

“I can appreciate that he’s attractive, but I just don’t know enough to be attracted to him, you know I’m more of a personality person than a looks person” you explain.

“Well stick it out then, don’t go getting cold feet and push him away before you get the chance to actually know him” Scott warns.

You nod your head knowing he was right. In the past you tended to get cold feet if you didn’t click with someone quickly, even though you preferred getting to know someone first before dating as opposed to dating apps. You felt like there was too much pressure with dating apps because everyone’s intention were clear, you much preferred being friends with someone first.

“I just want to be careful you know, don’t they say don’t date co-workers” you say shrugging your shoulders.

“They also say don’t date your best friend’s brother, but you already went there” Scott says making Steve snort and you almost choke.

“What Scott is trying to say is don’t cross people off just because of something as trivial as where you work, you might miss the one if you do that” Steve says still trying to suppress a laugh.

“Look I’m giving him a chance alright, we’ve been out for coffee twice and we text occasionally so its early days still” you says holding your hands up in defence.

“You swear you’ll give him a good chance though” Scott says looking over at you.

You raise your hand and place your other hand over your heart.

“I swear, look I’ll text him now asking if he wants to meet soon” you say grabbing your phone and shooting Jake a text.

“Good, I look forward to the invitation to your wedding” Scott smirks making you chuckle.
