POV: Y/N

'Outer Banks, paradise on Earth,' they say. Moved here just yesterday and there's already a hurricane coming. Easton thinks we'll like it and have fun here, but we both know his idea of fun is gambling and fucking hot girls. Apparently there's two sides of the island, Easton wants us to go check the other side out later. On our adventures, I'm going to try and find a job. Unlike East, I like to work and be responsible for shit.

"Yo y/n, you ready to go?" Easton yells from the kitchen on the other side of the house. As we're riding down the road in his black BMW, I start to realize that everyone here must be decently rich with all these quite big houses and expensive cars. My family is like middle class but high end middle class with my dad owning a business and mom constantly working. Every now and then East and I will pitch in for our phones and cars.

On our adventures, I see a restaurant called The Wreck with a 'Now hiring' sign in the window. "Hey East, can you pull over here in The Wreck real quick?" I tell him rather than asking.

"Sure, but why?" He asks not looking away from the windshield.

"I need to do something." Is all I tell him because knowing him he's just going to tell me that I shouldn't be wasting my time working all summer and blah blah blah. I think he forgets there's a whole world and reality outside of his party land.

"Um, excuse me," the lady looks up at me with a kind smile on her lips.

"Hi, welcome to The Wreck. How can I help you?" She kindly asks.

"Hi, uh yeah, I-I saw a sign in the window that said you guys were hiring?" I asked the kind lady nervously.

As she pulls her blonde hair up, she nods her head gesturing to behind the desk and says, "There should be a 16 year old girl with brown hair and some highlights and brown eyes back there on break sitting in the break room at the end on the left of the hallway. Tell her your name and age and that you want to apply for the job. Have you waited tables before?" The lady asks before continuing what she was saying.

"Yes, that's what I was hoping on doing here." I say nodding excitedly.

"Perfect, her name is Kiara," the lady says.

"Okay, thank you!" I finish off as I start walking to the back.

'Hey, u can go... imma be awhile :)' I text Easton so he doesn't come in here making a ruckus with his impatient ass.

I walk into the room the kind, blonde lady told me to and there I see two really pretty girls im guessing they both work here. "Um, excuse me, you must be Kiara." I say nervously while holding my hand out to the girl on the left who has the highlights. "I'm y/n and I would like to apply for a waiting position. The blonde lady at the desk told me to come talk to you."

"Hi y/n, I'm Kiara and this is my friend Parker." Kiara says as she points to the gorgeous brunette.

"Hi y/n, you can call me Parker Grace, that's what most people call me... and it helps makes me sound less masculine." She says looking down at her feet in either nervousness or embarrassment or both.

"I love your name, it's so pretty!" I say hoping to lighten the mood. Which it does when I hear Parker Grace chuckle.

"It's very nice to meet you both. I just moved here from Ocean City, Maryland. I'm 16, I hope that's alright." I say still trying to shake my own nerves.

"That is perfectly fine, let's go over a few things okay?" Kiara offers. I nod and sit down with them.

At the end of the interview Kiara tells me I got the job and said I can start Monday at 7:00 AM. That's also when her shift starts she told me. After that I go and order a burger and some mozzarella sticks for myself and Easton. The food here smells absolutely delicious.
