Sad, Beautiful, Tragic.

Chapter three

It is the last day of school. I'm filled with extreme happiness that I will be able to do whatever I want all day everyday without having to worry about drama and homework.

Miss. Meyers speaks to the class," okay go to your next class. Have a wonderful summer, and come visit me next year." With that we all exit the room.

So we continue on to each class, social studies, reading and language arts, science, and then finally we all go to the cafeteria to sign year books, and after that we are let out of the cafeteria doors to the buses.

The anticipation is building, we are all sitting on the floor waiting for the final call to be let go. We sit there in converse and wait so impatiently for that moment. Once all ears hear the teachers voice we all take the 'Q' and stand up and cram to get out of the doors. All the girls in their, as they call them "Sophie's" or really short shorts, walk out like they own the place, when in all reality they look like shit, except peyton. Me on the other hand....I'm a little awkward with jeans on. But at the moment that does not really matter to me. I'm more concerned about my friends Victoria and Lizzie flirting with Bryan, and of course they both are wearing Sophie's....why I'm jealous...i dont know but it's really gnawing at me.

Peyton and I make our way to our bus. We happily skip and sing on our way. Giddiness in our voices and smiles plastered on our faces. You will never meet two friends like us; we both climb aboard the bus, stride down the isle, and take our bums to the seat we belong in. We sit there discussing what our summer shall be, how much we are going to hang, and go to the beach, stuff like that.

"So when are we hanging out again?"I was questioned.

"Well it is suppose to very nice this weekend, and the beach is open now, sooo we will have a sleepover and then the next morning go to the beach and flaunt our hot bodies to the boys." I told her with a wink.

"Great. Hahaha I'm so excited!!" She says with a huge smile upon her face while she grabs my arm and shakes me ruggedly.

"Okay, hahaha calm down dude." I told her trying to calm her down.

For the next ten minutes we just talk about the usual things, and soon enough it's time for me to go. I say my goodbyes along with a hug for my bff and descend the stair case of the bus to my home where I will be, undisturbed for the next two and half months.

It's the first week of summer break. I am looking forward to the weekend because fortunately for me I am having Payton over for us then to wake up and go to the beach. Since its the beginning of the season the water is obviously going to be an ice box, but I don care because i get to go have FUN!

June 1st

Payton and I woke up with exuberance running through our veins. Today was going to be great; lounging on the beach, swimming in the water, flipping our hair in a sorta sexy way so we can get boys to look at us, and of course taking pictures.

"So this is the bikini I'm wearing..." She flashed me pink triangle bottoms and a floral triangle top.

"That's cute! I'm wearing this one..." I laid it out on my bed, it was a bright neon pink triangle bikini.

"Nice. I'm gonna go get changed now."my friend announced before she walked away to the bathroom.

"Okay."

So my friend walked into the bathroom, and I sat in my room waiting because my siblings were invading our space. As soon as she was done I walked into the bathroom to change into my bikini.

When I was done I grabbed my beach bag and walked out of my room with Peyton, carter, cora, and chole tagging along. (My siblings)

About an hour later we arrived at the sandy abyss. Everyone was about to jump out of the car before my moms voice cracked through the air;

"Don't get out of the car I need to go find us a spot." She said with a sort of irritation in her voice.

So I took that as a 'Q' to tell the kids to get everything ready; meaning take off their shorts and tanks that way they can get blocked up right away. As for me I just needed to remove my skirt.

Five minutes later:

"Okay everyone get out of the car, Claire put the sunblock on the girls." She commanded while handing me the spray bottle.

I sprayed down my sisters and then went to the back of the car to obtain some more of our beach goodies. I was hoping that Peyton and I would see cute boys, but not all the time, and if we do they are older.

So we all make our way down to the beach. Once we reach our spot we set all the beach stuff down. Peyton and I stretch and embrace the sun, it was a beautiful day.

"Hey" popped up on my scratched phone screen from none other than Bryan Costello.

My heart raced, and I couldn't help it, my infatuation for him was so strong. We had been talking for a couple weeks. Nothing much just the question game.

I responded back hoping the conversation would actually pick up this time, and it did. he asked for a picture of me to show his friend....so i sent him one of my cousin and i when we went to Wisconsin.

"Wow you're realllllllyyyy pretty."

It felt good to read that. And then he asked if he could have one of my abs...so I presumed to get up and lift up my shirt to snap a quick pic of my toned flat stomach of six muscles.

"Nice ;)" he replied.

it was around nine o'clock and we were about ten questions in the game when he asked me who i liked. I froze, my heart skipped a beat and I got those butterflies that went up and down rapidly in your stomach.

"You know who I like...." I told him hoping he would get the hint it was him.

"No. Tell me who." He pressed.

"I told you, you already know." I say back frustrated in the other side of the phone hoping he would drop it.

"No." He insisted. I just gave up.

"Okay well who do you like?"

"Someone." He replied mysteriously.

"...and that someone is?" I questioned curiously with the slightest hope it might be me.

"Here's some hints, she has a great smile, she's liked me for a while, she's cute, we are the same height, she loves meat....NOT...so do those hints help ya?"

Right then and there I froze...I knew exactly who he was talking about. It.....it...was me...😱. I was a vegetarian and that was the one thing that have it away. If he didn't like me that would just be a wake up call saying 'GET OVER HIM!'

"..You like me..." I said afraid he would respond back with "just kidding!"

"Yeah. So wanna go out?" He asked me, and I got so happy you wouldn't believe.

"Yes!" I replied content with the fact I had a boyfriend that I actually liked. This was unexpected. I then lay in bed unable to fall asleep because of the rush that ran through my veins, you know, that pump of genuine happiness? Life was great.
