Nights out

smile

                   I stared at him, his beautiful gaze looking up at me. His hair soaked with salty water and golden sand almost the same exact color of his hair. I couldn't get enough of him I wanted him all to myself. Playing games with him, going to the beach, looking at the stars, admiring the way his lips curled when I made a stupid joke, I always loved his soft look and how he was always positive.  As he looked at me he grasped my face and he said "Julie. listen to me..." Waking up dreading to look and open my eyes and see my brother hovering over my half a sleep body saying, "Julie. Listen to me. You are going to be late!" I shoved my brother Luke out of my face once as I opened my eyes. "Can you get out of my room? I have an alarm for a reason." I fully exclaimed infuriated.  Luke looking at me with an surprised expression on his face, "I can't believe you just did that to me on the last day of school! I thought you would be so excited but no you have to be all grouchy. Get up, let's go!" I hurriedly got out of bed so I could finally leave school, have fun during summer, I'm definitely excited. I put on my favorite denim shorts that I love, with a very soft top that had an hint of orange. I brushed my teeth and my hair while just putting on light set of makeup and headed downstairs. "Good morning sweetheart" my dad said smiling as if he was a flower in bloom. "Good morning dad, did you make any breakfast yet?" I said questioning him. "I was waiting for you to see what you would like.." I quickly replied "I was just wondering, I'm okay thank you, you know Luke, he's always eating I'm going to make him something really quick for on the go. We are not going to be late!" I grabbed some oatmeal I could find in our cabinet and made it quickly before he came down. 15 minutes later he came down with both of our backpacks, "are you ready to go jules?" I turned and told him I'd be just a minute. I found my old beat up converse and threw them on while grabbing my phone with the oatmeal in my hand. While saying my goodbyes I kissed my dad on the forehead and ran out the door. I remember when it was summer and my stupid brothers would bring around their friends and we would all hang out together. My brothers would act like they hated me. Especially when their friends came around. But as we got older they finally let me be apart of their stupid games and funny memories. Once my older brother went to college and so did my best friend's brother it's just been me, Luke and nick . Driving away from the house i gave luke his oatmeal and started telling him what we are doing after school. "Hey so what's the plan for after school? i mean nick wanted to throw a party but what should we do?" "It's really up to nick and you, me and cece don't care." my brother's girlfriend is such a sweetheart it's nice that she comes along and hangs with us. I rolled my eyes at his answer, turned up the music and texted josh that we were coming and thinking of plans. As we pulled up to the parking lot of our school Lakewood high. I thought that this would be some magical place but it really isn't. I couldn't wait for this last day to be over. I wanted to swim again, I wanted to jump in the pool or beach, whenever i wanted to. I just could never do that without it being summer. It's not the same;I love the feeling, forgetting, just closing my eyes and smelling the salty air. Running up to my best friend, him. Only him, the boy I've been waiting to see. The night before nick and I had been planning out what we wanted to do for the first day of summer. "What do you think about having a bonfire and after we all go back to your house to watch movies!" I was excited thinking about what we would do. "Jules we have to go big, we can do that another time. Maybe we can throw a party, I know Jessica would love to come." As he said that I just stared at him not expecting him to bring up her. Jessica was nicks friend and they had kissed a couple of times. I mean Jessica was a pretty , popular and outgoing girl but I disliked her. It felt like every time he brought her up I wanted to cry. "I guess that would be fun. We should definitely do that but at your house." He wasn't a kid anymore and never was the same since high school started. All he cares about is partying and hooking up with random girls. No matter what or how he acted around others, with my brother and I it was different. That confused me a lot because I wanted him to be that little kid again. Innocently being goofy and happy. He hides who he is and it's like that part of him is gone sometimes. "I'll sort some stuff out and keep you updated and we will figure out stuff later on, see you tomorrow Jules love ya!" I said goodbye to him too and turned off my phone
"Just who I was looking for! Good morning Jules how's my sweet girl." He always does this on purpose, try and make me smile every morning. "Hey I'm doing good actually. Let me tell you something.." I said walking down the hallways with Luke, nick and me side by side. I continued "So when Luke and I were in the car he heard Taylor Swift playing and started singing and yelling.." Luke interrupted to defend himself, "listen she's a good singer alright! I was getting ready for summer!" "No way Luke a swifty?" "Yes! And he even rolled the windows down embarrassing himself and me!" We laughed as loud as we could, walking towards my classroom. "Thank you gentlemen for walking me, I'll see you guys soon." They said bye in allusion and I walked in to my first period classroom, math.
Like this day could get any worse, math was so boring and the teacher had to say this. "For the last day we will do packets! Very fun and important stuff from which you've learned this year. So who wants to pass them out?" When we got the packets this boy who was passing them out looked familiar. Like we knew each other from math but we never talked. He passed me a paper and said "Here..you have beautiful eyes by the way. Have we ever met?" i blushed and thanked him. "Well my names jack and you are..?" "My names Julie but you can call me juju, Jules and you know whatever!" I freaked out. I didn't know what to say. "Its nice to meet you julie maybe ill see you around this summer." I cant believe i just embarrassed myself in front of this cute boy. He is tall and has these black beautiful curls and almost covering his eyebrows, tan and has a big white smile that makes you want to smile back. We live in a small city so i hope that maybe i see him soon. After school Luke, nick and me met up in the parking lot. "Heyy guys we gonna have fun this summer or what!" I said rushing up to catch up with them. "Hell yeah we are gonna throw some fun parties I mean cmon it's me guys" nick was really always thinking about the wrong things. "Oh you finally think Jules is old enough for that now?" "Seriously Luke your really annoying. There's cece right there let's ask her if I'm old enough...stupid." Luke interrupted, "She likes you of course she's gonna agree." "Whatever. Hey cece do you think I can party?" As cece came over to us she had an upset expression. When it was lunch my friend alyssa was walking my brother and i to the pavilion. Cece saw us and she is really jealous, the sweetest but i knew she wasn't gonna like this. Cece looked and turned around storming off because she knew who my brother was before. "Oh yeah for sure, remember when you were really like...oh I mean and you were like dancing but yeah." I looked at my brother and nick as they had surprised faces on their faces. "Julie a dancer? Now I wanna see this." "You're not going to do that no way I'm letting you party Jules not with mom home." "I will." I smiled as a hopped in the car and so did the others. "Brat." Luke said rolling his eyes at my determination.
As we were driving to Josh's house we started to make a playlist for the party. "So what are we thinking? Maybe some Tyler, frank ocean, cmon let's get something." I turned to nick and he started spilling ideas. "Ouuuhh yes we need that and also classics like Miley and Nelly Furtado for sure." "Okay I got it. This is gonna be so much fun." As we pulled up to his house me and nick went inside as cece and Luke talked and stayed in the car. "We will be there in a second just give us a moment." "Okay." We still were curious so we peeked and listened. "Why are you mad again dude?" Luke said basically yelling at cece. "Every time I see you with her I don't understand it's like you like her." I hated when I heard them fight it reminded me of my mom and dad. When my mom was dying they fought so much. I love my mom and I don't want them to end up like them. "Seriously your jealous over a little junior? She's my sisters friend." "I can't believe you don't take me seriously dude let's just go, we will talk later." Nick and I were shocked and went to go into the living room, talking and getting ready for the party.
