Just a normal vacation, right?

I slowly wake up. I didn't sleep very well because my family and I are on vacation and I'm not used to the bed I am sleeping in. However, I grab my phone and reply to some messages from the day before. I didn't feel like replying to them yesterday because I was very exhausted from school and the car drive.
When I answered everything I swipe trough the other notifications on my phone.

Instagram: Jessica Capshaw posted a story

As I see that notification I start smiling immediately, hoping it would be a cute selfie of her. A few seconds later, after thinking about what she could have posted, I open Instagram and type her name in the search bar. I finally click on her icon so I can watch the story. The smile on my face, wich never faded since I saw that she posted something, grew even bigger.
It was a beautiful picture of her and her kids on the beach. I instantly screenshot it. After adoring the picture and looking at every detail, I hear my parents calling me to eat some breakfast.

I eat cereal while still thinking about Jessica's post. The beach looked very similar to the beach here. I wonder if she could be near to the place I am at. I suddenly snap out of my thoughts because my dad says something to me.
"Did you hear what I just said?"
"No, sorry, can u say it again? I am still a bit tired."
"Your mom and I decided we should walk along the beach today. There is a little restaurant where we can eat something too."
I don't really want to go with them but it's better than being alone in the apartment the whole time. So I just say
"Okay."
and go back to my thoughts about Jessica.

A few hours later, after finishing breakfast, we start to get ready to head out. I put on my favorite jeans and a comfy pullover.

Two months ago I made myself a bracelet with pink, orange and white pearls, I put the letters "J C A P" on it so every time I look at it I think about Jess. I love that bracelet because I love thinking about Jessica.

I put it on my wrist and start brushing my hair. When I am done with everything in the bathroom I go to the wardrobe and take a coat and a had. It's not really cold outside according to the fact that it's autumn but I freeze very quickly.
My parents are ready to head out now either, so we start walking out of the apartment and straight to the elevator.

We arrived at the beach after walking trough the city. The water is still today and it's not windy at all. I kinda regret putting on my coat because it's warmer than I thought and the pullover would have been enough to keep me warm.

I walk a few steps behind my parents, looking at my phone, hoping Jessica would post another story. I'm glad she posted even one story after being inactive for months but still.
The way was not as long as I thought it would be. We are already at the restaurant, my dad talked about in the morning.
I ordered pasta and it is absolutely delicious.

When I am done with eating I look at my phone again.
1 new notification.
A friend of mine, who I met on Instagram. We both are huge fans of Jessica Capshaw and talk, or better write about her all the time. I love writing about Jess as much as I love thinking about her. She is my favorite actress for more than a year now.
The friends I have in my hometown are probably really annoyed because I always talk about Jcap but I can't help it. All I can think about is her. She makes me smile even if am sad. I could look at her the whole day and wouldn't get tired of her face, voice, laugh. Her laugh, oh my goodness it's the best sound in the world. So comforting! If you haven't heard it yet, you should immediately go on YouTube and find an interview with her!! If you once heard it, you'll never get enough of it.
Okay, I really have to stop myself from writing more about her, I would never get to an end.

So my parents have emptied their plates now too and we decide to walk back to the apartment. On the way back I don't look at my phone at all, I just enjoy the nice view. Here are a lot of people who walk along the beach. Understandable, the weather is amazing! I mostly look at the sea, sometimes at some people and sometimes at the floor, there are nice shells. This time I walk in front of my parents because now I know the way.

After a few minutes of walking I see a family from afar. They look so adorable. Two of the girls wear rubber boots and stand in the flat water. The other girl stands next to a guy who is probably her brother and they watch the two girls with the rubber boots. I don't know why but they look familiar to me. My eyes wander to the parents, who are looking at the sea. Funny thing, the woman looks exactly like Jessica Capshaw. I look at the sea again because I don't want them to catch me staring. As we walk closer to the family I can't help but look again.

OMG. Omg omg omg omg am i seeing that right!?!? This woman IS Jessica Capshaw. My eyes go wide. My heart starts racing, I don't even know how my body manages to keep walking. What should I do? Help! I can't just talk to her, can I? But this is the moment I wanted so badly to happen all the time. What if I disturb them or she doesn't like me? I have so my thoughts in my head I think it's going to explode in the next second.
I walk closer to them, only 10 meters away from her. HER. JESSICA CAPSHAW!! I can not believe what is happening right now. Am I dreaming? I am pretty sure I'm not.

This is the moment, I am only a few steps away from her. I have to speak now. If I don't speak now I'll regret it probably my whole life. So I take all my courage together and stark walking very slow. I finally manage to say
"A- Are you J- Jessica Capshaw?".
My voice is shaking but when I catch her attention she immediately starts to smile. Her super magic smile.
"Yeah, that's me."
Everything around me stays still. It feels like as if the world stops turning for a second. I instantly start smiling, I put my shaky hand in front of my mouth and my eyes fill with tears. Tears of happiness. I realize I am just staying awkward in front of her, so I start talking again.
"C- Can I hug you? Y- You don't have to say yes of course, it's just- I adore you so much and I always wanted to hug you. And-" oh god, what am I doing?
Gladly, she just cuts me off by saying
"Of course sweetie." and wraps her arms around me. It's the best feeling I have ever felt. I am hugging THE Jessica Capshaw, in this moment, right now. It's the most comforting hug I have ever had. All my thoughts disappear. I never want to let go, but it would be awkward if we hug to long. She doesn't even know who I am. So we stop hugging. I immediately want to hug her again.

Now she smiles at me. I smile back at her. When Jessica Capshaw smiles at you, the only thing you can do is smile back at her. I am surprised about myself when I say
"Can we take a picture?". I feel so safe in her presence, my voice isn't even shaking anymore. She reply's with
"Yeah! Sure-" she raises her voice as if she wants to say something else, I think she wants to say my name so I just say
"Y/N".
"Sure y/n!" I can't believe SHE just said my name. I think I'll faint in the next few seconds. But I manage to pull my phone out of my pocket and open the camera. She smiles at the camera, so do I. Normally, when I take pictures I look at my self but in that moment I was only looking at Jessica through my screen. I took a few pictures and then put my phone back in my pocket. I never want this moment to end but I don't want to be a bother, so I just say
"Thank you so so much Jessica! This is the best day of my life."
She laughs at that. I can tell you, hearing her laugh trough your mobile speaker is one thing but hearing it in real life, I can't even describe it, it's like all of your problems don't matter anymore. My face starts to hurt because I am smiling so hard to whole time but I can't help it, I just have to.
„It's no problem, y/n. It was a pleasure to meet you sweetheart." I look at her one more time before I have to start walking away. Walking away from the best moment in my life,the best person on earth.

As soon as I am a few meters away I start missing her already. I feel sad, but at the same time I am the happiest person in the whole world, no, the whole universe.

When we arrive at the apartment again, I unlock my phone and go to my camera roll. The story I screenshoted in the morning and the pictures I took with Jessica are right next to each other. I look at them the whole evening until I fall asleep. That night, I slept better than ever before.
