Summer of '09

Two

I woke up from the best dream ever. Me, Dallas, the beach, and a lot of kissing. I honestly didn't feel anything towards Dallas. He was cute and all but I didn't like him, yet. I knew I would end up falling for him Like I always do with these boys. I went to the restroom, took a shower, fixed my hair and put some clothes on. I didn't know what to wear so I wore black jeans, a white t-shirt,a black leather jacket, and combat boots. "aww" I looked in the mirror and smiled. I actually look cute today. I looked at the clock, it was 10 am! What? Really. I thought it would take longer for me to change. I walked down the stairs and sat on my leaving room couch. Now I have nothing to do. I remembered that I had to go get my bike at the field. I made my way out my house and to the field. Walking over there I realized a lot of things. Next year I'll be a senior, then the year after that I'll in college hopefully. Then what? I hope I don't end up like most girls in this town. I finally arrived at the field and saw my bike. "Oh thank goodness" I sighed in relief. I ran over to it and got on. I was about to leave but then I heard a really loud scream. "Ignore it. it's nothing" I told myself but I couldn't bare to think that maybe someone was getting murdered and I didn't do anything. I got off my bike and looked over the whole field. I see a very frustrated Dallas. Isn't it a bit to early for baseball? I leaned on the fence that separating the bleachers from the field. He hit the ball as hard as he could and swung around. I got to see his butt "NICE BUTT!" I screamed at him smiling. He turned around and laughed. "YOU'RE HERE EARLY" he screamed back. I laughed. I opened the gate and jogged over to him "Well yeah I had to come and get my bike." I was secretly hoping we could go on that "date" early and spend the whole day together. "did you get it?" "What? My bike?" He nodded in response "yeah, I thought it would be gone" I laughed "wow lucky you, mostly in this neighborhood when you leave something, the next day it's gone." he said while taking off his sweaty shirt. My mouth dropped open, my hands started getting really sweaty. Oh my gosh. I realized that I was drooling. "Yeah I know" I tried to not look at him. what's wrong with this kid? Knowing he's hot and showing it off. wow conceited. "Lets go to the beach" he blurts out of no where. "Right now?" What a stupid question to ask wow. "yeah" he chuckled. "I don't have a bathing suit though" I shrugged "it's fine, we'll go eat, then go we can go buy you one" he smiled, his smile was so cute. "Yeah sure" we walked towards his truck. I got in the passenger seat and he got in the drivers seat. He was about to start the truck,but he gasped and quickly got out. I got out as well "is everything ok?" I asked worried. "yeah" I saw him lift up my bike and put it in the back "it's just you were about to leave your bike...again" he laughed. i laughed with him. Gosh his laugh was so adorable.

We got back in and he drove to a little burger place. We walked in and sat in a booth that was at the corner of the restaurant. "Let's take picture, just in case you want to look back on beautiful memories" he smiled at me. I couldn't help but smile too. He took out his phone and we took a cute picture. We waited for someone to attend us. "Hello, Welcome to Daisy's. What would you guys like to eat?" She smiled. 'Rosi' read her name tag. She was so pretty and skinny god I wish I was her right now. "Um yeah, we will have 2 numbers 4" he smiled and handed her back the menu "oh, and what drink?"
"Coke" she nodded and walked away.
"What do you plan on doing this summer?" I asked trying to make conversation. "I plan on getting better at baseball honestly it's the one thing that distracts me from all the bullshit in my life." My heart began to hurt from hearing that. I honestly thought his life was perfect. "Well that's good, you're really good though" I smiled at him. He looked down, I saw that his cheeks get really red. Did he just blush oh my god dude I made a guy blush. and the 2009 Girl of the year goes to Darcy Martinez.

After we finished eating he took me to Walmart. I looked through all these cute bathing suits. I saw one that caught my attention. A two piece with galaxy print all over it. I fell in love with it. I checked the price '24.98' my eyes got wide. "this ones cute" he came up behind me checking the one I was looking at. "yeah but it's to expensive." I sighed. I really didn't want him to spend his money on me. "no it's fine babe" he took it into his hands and got in line to pay. My heart jumped when he called me babe. We got to the beach and he left me in the truck so I could change. After I was finished I saw next to him in the sand. It was weird because there wasn't a lot of people at the beach that day. "It's so beautiful" he admired the sky. "I know, some days it's unbelievable" I smiled at him.

We sat there on the beach just talking about our lives. I learned so much about him. His brother Austin got killed in a drive by, his mom had cancer well had luckily she's still alive, and his dad died 3 days after his 14th birthday. I wanted to cry but I stayed strong for him. then he broke down into my arms. "Shh it's ok" I leaned my forehead on his. "Thank you" he smiled "for?" I chuckled "for listening to me, most girls come to me for sex, but they don't realize that I'm not like that I actually want someone real ya know?" I nodded. I knew exactly what he meant. "something like you" he put his hand on my cheek. please kiss me. it's like he read my mind and pressed his lips onto mine. "I'm sorry" he pulled away. Sorry for what? Being a good kisser? "Why are you sorry?" I raised my eyebrow "for kissing you. you probably have a boyfriend" he sighed "no it's fine, I don't have one plus why would anyone date me I mean... look at me" I pointed to my face. "I'm ugly"

He chuckled "you're kidding right? you're actually really pretty" I couldn't help but blush "you look cute when you blush" he took my hand into his. "hey I know we barely know each and all but I honestly really like you. like when I saw you with Ann at the field, I just couldn't keep my eyes off you" he laughed "same, you're legit so hot Dallas like damn" I playfully hit his arm. "Darcy..." He looked up at me. "yeah?" I smiled at him. "Be my girlfriend?" Oh my god my heart was beating so fast "I- um- are you asking me or telling?" I chuckled "either way just as long as at the end of the day you're mine" his eyes sparkled "yes" I simply said. He smiled tracing my lips with his thumb "you're so beautiful" I blushed looking down. I knew he was going to make me happy. "Come on I'll take you home." he got up and took my hand and helped me up. "what time is it?"
"Um 7:35" damn that must have been a really long talk. He took my hand and walked back to his truck. I got butterflies in my stomach which was rare because that never happened. I think I was going to fall hard. Fuck me.
