I'm sitting on a pier, mostly avoiding my mom, but also writing some lyrics. suddenly a small boat with two girls from my new school stopped in front of me.
one of the girls says "hey, want to join us for a ride?" I look up at her then around and ask "are you talking to me?"
the blonde says "yeah, come on. it'll be fun." I sigh and say "sure. why not." I decided to join because it might give me some inspiration for some lyrics in my song.
the brunette says "I'm Cleo. Madison right?" I say "yeah. but please call me Maddy." the blonde says "I'm Rikki. now hold on tight!" I sit and we all race off in the boat.

we drive by a blonde girl I've seen around school. Cleo asks "hey, Emma! want a ride?" Emma asks "are you licensed?"
Rikki retorts "are you my mother?" the girl still looks hesitant. I say "come on, what's the worst that can happen?" the girl shrugs and we drive up close so she can get in.
then we start driving around. Rikki asks "wanna go out to sea?" I say "sure why not." Emma asks "isn't it dangerous in a park this size?" Rikki tells her "chill out."
then we head out to sea. not even 30 minutes later we are out to sea and out of gas. Emma says "are we 'chilled out' yet." Rikki says "so we're floating it's not like we're sinking."
Emma says "not yet." Rikki says "I think we're out of fuel." I ask "what now?" Rikki looks at an island ahead of us and asks "feel like paddling to that island?"
Emma asks "mako island? forget it." I ask "why not?" Cleo answers "no one goes there. it's surrounded by sharks... and reefs... and mangroves."
I say "spooky." Rikki passes Emma an oar and says "well, it's all we've got." I add "she's right. it's kinda our only option." Emma takes the oar and slowly we paddle to Mako.

when we get there we pull the boat onto the beach a bit so it doesn't drift out to see. Cleo asks "how are we ever gonna get back home?"
Emma says "good question, Cleo. ask your friend." and she glares at Rikki. Rikki says "don't put this on me." Emma says "oh, it was someone else's fault. someone else took this thing miles offshore."
I pipe up saying "you didn't have to join. and second, when Rikki suggested it you could've said no or that you weren't comfortable. it's all our fault okay."
Rikki says "thank you. I like her." Emma says "you're all lucky I have this." and she pulls out her phone. Cleo says "Emma's always really prepared."
Rikki retorts "I'm so happy for her." I roll my eyes and pull out my book to write some things down. Emma says "I'm not getting any signal. we should try and get to higher ground."
