I might not be able to update as often but I will try my best. Here's the nest chapter. Enjoy

You know that feeling when you feel like someone is planning something behind your back. That feeling when you know something's gonna happen but you don't know when or why. That feeling that makes you distracted for the whole day because your thinking about what could happen. That's what I'm feeling at this moment. That nagging thing at the back at my head at all times. Sonya just keeps giving me these weird smiles like she knows something is gonna happen to me or she's planning something. But I don't know what it is. Maybe it's something to do with Thomas. Hmmmmm.

"Hey Teresa" I get a call after school from Thomas.
"Hey, what's up"
"That depends....are you busy on Sunday"
"Well that depends on why your asking me" his laugh fills the speaker
"Well have you ever been jet skiing"
"No... Why you asking"
"Well my parents are taking my little brother Chuck to Disneyland this weekend"
"Okay"
"And there's this thing where you can go hire jet skis by the beach this weekend, wanna come with?"
"Really?"
"Yeah, I wouldn't lie about this"
"Yes, I'd love to go with you"
He gives me all the details about the activity.
"Can't wait see ya"
"Bye"
I can't wait. Wait a minute is this a date....I don't know.

I meet Thomas at the beach wearing a plain T shirt and jean shorts. My brother had to give me a drive so now he's been teasing me all morning. Just because he got his heartbroken. I notice Thomas making his way to me with a huge grin on his face, the one that makes my heart beat a little faster. He's wearing a loose white vest top and rolled up jeans to his knee. I see he has actually gelled his hair today unlike his usual messed up, just got out bed style, which makes him look gorgeous. But now I see his hair is sticking up in a diagonal line to the right. This makes him look amazing. He jogs his way near me.
"Hey" he pulls me in the familiar embrace. I can smell the fruity scent on his skin. And I never want him to let go.
"Hey" I whisper in his ear.
He pulls away and I immediately miss the warmth.
"Ready, nice day isn't it"
It is not very common in Britain, it just rains and rains.
"Yup"
"Come on"
He slips his hand into mine and I can feel how warm his hand is. He starts walking slowly to the deck swaying our hands slightly.
"So anything new in your life"
"Nope same old, what about you"
"Not much"
"You know at the party"
"Yeah, what about it" I see him blush slightly
"You said you would tell me something some other day, what was it"
He sign really loud
"My life is kinda a mess, I went out with Brenda to stop other girls trying to get to me"
"Okay"
"Brenda has always been the girl everyone is scared of, so I thought if I went out with her people would stop bothering me"
"I see, don't want the attention"
"No, I just like being myself with no one bothering me"
"Didn't relies you thought so deeply about everything"
"Nobody does, because when you act a certain way for a long time everyone just expects it off you, if you start failing nobody notices"
"Your not failing"
"No I'm not but if there's a time I will nobody will be there to help"
"I will" I whisper "I'll always be there"
He smiles at me and turns around to face me. For a moment I think he is about to kiss me but he turns back around at the last minute.
"Here we are"
I see 2 jet skis floating on the sea with life jackets on.
"You ready"
I nod slightly nervous. Thomas helps me out on my life jacket and lifts me on the the jet skis. I like the feeling of floating on a seat, my fear slowly melts away. The instructor shows me everything about using the jet skis while Thomas puts in his own life jacket.
"Here we go, you wanna race"
"Sure, and you now I'm gonna win"
He laughs "we'll see"
I start up the engine and before I knew it I could feel the wind blowing in my face. This is amazing. I feel free like anything is possible. I look down to see my own face reflecting of the water, and I have the widest smile on ever. I look behind me and see Thomas. His hair is blowing outwards and up, with a smile so big if I look closely I could make out small dimples in the side of the cheeks.
"Come in Thomas" I shout really loudly "Your not gonna let me beat you are you?"
Next thing I know he's next to me laughing.
"Nope, let's circle round and the loser gets a forfeit"
"Your on"
I circle round tightly letting the wind blow my hair side wards. I don't care I'm not losing to Thomas. I race forward at maximum speed possible. I don't look back but I think I'm first. When I see the deck in the distance I see Thomas race past me. When he does he turns back and sticks his tongue out at me and faces forward again. I try to go faster but he reaches there first. He slowly comes to a stop and so do I.
"Who's the loser?"
"Me" I sign
"What?"
"Me" I say louder.
He smiles and shakes his head.
"Can't believe you thought you could beat me"
"Whatever"
I hand the instructor the life jacket and Thomas helps me back onto the deck.
"Well that was fun"
"Yeah it was amazing" it was
"I'm glad you enjoyed it"
"I did, thanks for bring me here"
"The day hasn't finished yet, come on"
He drags me to the beach never letting go of my hand. He sits down near the shore and dips his toes in.
"Sit" so I do
We spend the next hour talking about our lives, getting to know each other. At some point he moves closer so we're sitting as close as we can. We sit there so long we end up watching the sun set.
"Thank you, Thomas I really enjoyed today" I lay my head on his shoulder.
"Any time"
"Is this a date" I say nervously.
"Depends"
"On what"
"Do you want it to be"
"Yes" I really do.
