Summer Relations

Chapter 6

The pic on the side is of Gavin.

"You're suppoed to be relaxing." I yell at Spencer playfully.

"I am relaxing." He says.

He's supposed to be relaxing on the couch, but instead he's sitting on the futon, watching as Seth, Justice, and Gavin attempt to teach me how to ride a longboard. Uncle Albert is shopping and Mom and Dad and Caitlyn went home.

"Okay, now don't fall." Gavin says, and my pushes me.

I fall forward and land on my knees.

"Ow!"

Spencer is shirtless and he looks hot.

"Are you bleeding?" Spencer stands up.

I sit down on my ass in my jean shorts and look at my knees and hands.

"No, I'm good."

"You guys are teaching her wrong." Spencer says.

"Sit down." I say, standing up.

"You have to take her to a hill." He continues. "It's easier to learn on a hill."

"Too bad we're not leaving." I say.

"Okay, let's go to Beverly Hills."

"No." I say. "I'm not going. Spencer, I'll call your mother."

"Just get me a wheelchair! Or bring the shopping cart that Unkie Alby stole from Walmart!"

I look at Justice's truck.

"Fine." I say. "But if we're going to get out of here, we have to go before Uncle Albert gets home."

Justice and Gavin load the shopping cart into the back of the truck and we all pile in.

I have on light blue jean short shorts that are high rise, a red tank top that says 23 on it, and white high rise converse. The longboard is tossed in the back.

"I got my license taken away." Justice says.

Everyone looks at me, because Spencer can't drive and the boys either A, have their license's taken away by their parents because they did something stupid or B, forget their wallets.

I sigh and move to the drivers seat.

I turn the truck on.

"Gosh, you're so tall." I move the seat up and adjust the mirrors. I call my Uncle.

"Hey assface, I'm going out."

"Okay." He says.

"Okay bye."

"Wait." He says. "Are you bringing Spencer with you?"

I pause.

"Yes." I say.

The four boys look at me in outrage.

"You're not going. Turn around."

"We already left." I say, and I start to drive.

I hear a loud sigh.

"Natalie, take me off of speaker."

I do.

"What?" I ask.

"Spencer is in love with you. He isn't supposed to be doing anything. He's supposed to be laying around. You can't go out and do whatever you want, okay? I know you have feelings for him. You wouldn't have freaked out the way you did if you didn't. I get he's your friend, but he wants more than that. Why don't you turn around and go home? Relax on the couch and watch movies."
