Summer Guys Novels & Stories

His eyes lingered uncomfortably on our chests. I felt a wave of disgust at their forwardness. They were just teenagers trying to hit on women in a bar. I was too disheartened to care though and simply turned away, ignoring them. However, Summer, with her fiery temper, faced the young boys head-on. "Get lost! We're not interested in entertaining kids," she snapped. She was always straightforward and didn’t mince words with people she disliked. The youths, who looked youthful but not good-natured, reacted with anger. One of them advanced toward Summer, grabbing her shoulder aggressively, while the other one approached me with an inappropriate leer.

CALLA This summer felt like a movie. Sun on my skin, water in my hair. Late night swims in the lake behind the summer house while our parents drank wine on the deck, and Miles cannon balled into the water drenching me completely. I splashed back at him, laughing, but his grin was infuriating. He moves like he is always on the ice, fast, deliberate, and impossible to catch off guard. We have done summers together since kindergarten. Our families vacation every year like it’s tradition. Same place, same inside jokes, same two families tangled together as if fate had it planned. But this year was different. Miles looked at me differently after what felt like forever.

Summer POV “I don’t have to go with you… I mean he’s your boyfriend and your Dad.” I glared at her. She smiled and popped the driver’s door open. We’re going down together, I thought. Close to twenty betas were wandering around Ezra’s property. Dad, Ezra and Hunter stood by the front door. Hunter was baiting Ezra which was making things worse. “Summer,” Ezra ground out. His rage quickly died when he took me in. “What the hell are you wearing?!”

"O-Of course. We're friends." Satisfied with my response, Bethany finally let go of my arm and followed me inside. I opened the door, but the office was pitch-black. "Dad, these are the friends I mentioned, the ones coming to work here for the summer," I said cautiously. Before I could introduce them, they pushed past me and crowded into the room. "Hello, Mr. Parker. We're here for the summer jobs. May I know what the pay is like? Is ten thousand dollars a month okay? Oh, and I'm not really into factory work. Can I get an office job instead?"

"Bye, Mommy, Daddy! Enjoy your travels and stay safe! Have fun with the penguins at the South Pole!" Summer said while waving with all her might. Her smile was bright, her feet occasionally bouncing from the ground. Louis and Sky waved back from the car window. "See you later, Honey. Don't forget my message! Be a good girl. Don't cause any trouble while Mommy and Daddy are gone, okay?" Sky said with teary eyes. "Relax, Mommy. I'm a good kid. I won't cause any trouble. Just focus on your honeymoon!" Summer nodded while putting her hands on her hips.

Then, came the clink of glasses. “I heard you haven’t touched Summer in seven years. Why are you holding out on a beauty like that?” “Are you crazy? Everyone in our circle knows that John only sleeps with virgins. No matter how pretty Summer is, she’s been tainted by someone else. How could she compare to you? At least you are innocent.” Anna let out a shy, coquettish protest. A chill ran through my entire body. Even my hands began to tremble. It felt as though I had been dragged back to the darkest moment of my life, the memory I tried hardest never to think about.

I breathe in ghost jazz, bacon, and the faint sulfur of the springs. The crown settles, warm and quiet. HOME: Hot Springs, Arkansas Status: Safe Threat Level: Zero (for now) Next stop: Atlantis (whenever they’re dumb enough to surface) I grin at my ridiculous family (living, dead, shifter, fire, fox, oni, monk, queen). Celeste: “Summer break officially starts now. Pool’s open. Ghosts are bartending. And the world can wait another week before we drown it.” Al raises a glass of something definitely not legal.

The head of the orphanage found me in the middle of the scorching summer, which was why he named me Theros Sommar. When Daisy learned of it, she then said that moving forward, the summer solstice every year would be my birthday. She then prepared birthday gifts for me and even baked a birthday cake for me to celebrate. Ever since my gastric bleeding the other day, she had forbidden me from drinking again. But the mood back then had been just right, so I pestered her until she gave in and allowed me to drink some red wine. One thing led to another, and that night, she finally gave herself wholly to me.

Summer continued, giggling. Sky, who was moving the dishes from the trolley to the table, immediately glanced at her suspiciously. "What's the money for?" "For buying many things. I've been seeing a lot of delicious food and cool stuffs lately. I want to buy some for Grandpa and Grandma." "For example?" Cayden raised an eyebrow. Summer's gaze shifted to him. "A reindeer-shaped water bottle. Grandpa can bring it when he works on the farm, or maybe when he travels with Grandma. They'll look cute if their water bottles are matching."

Marty responded. “What did you do?” MJ said. “My fist may have accidentally hit his face a few times.” Marty replied. “Can we please go home?” MJ asked. “Sure sis.” Marty responded. The rest of the school year passed without incident. Summer was here! Jared and Marty went to football camp. Afterwards Jared went to baseball camp. So, he’s gone most of the summer. “Time for a change! I’m going to be a junior, no more geeky MJ.” MJ said.
