After lunch me and my friends all parted ways, I had gym, lacy had science, Alex had history and Lynn had a free period. I made my way over to the change room and changed. I walk out only to see a boy with a mop of blonde hair and hazel eyes who's tall and muscular, and immediately I know it's my favourite person. Ryder fucking maylock.
"Hey, Mac!" He says with a charming smile
I freeze at the nick name, "don't you ever call me that ever again do you understand! You don't deserve that. You lowlife scum." I growl. Jabbing my fingers in his chest.
He just ignores it and retorts "feisty, I like it." He winks and I just roll my eyes and say " get out of the way Maylock, I have bigger problems to deal with."
"Last name basis is see." He says And smirks, moving a bit closer. I push past him and just before I enter the gym I look back and say "you know what you did, and there is no chance I'm going to forgive you."

{SKIP TO END OF SCHOOL}

I ride my bike silently replaying the events of the day. My brown long hair whips out to the side making me feel like I'm flying. When I pull up to my house I let my self in going straight upstairs. I pull out my computer and decide to watch some home movies. As I'm watching them I realize: my dad would be proud of me that I'm moving on and doing the thing that I love.  A stray tear slides down my face as the screen of my laptop shows my first surfboard lesson with him. That was the day I caught my first wave, my dad wouldn't give up on me. The last clip was a picture of me my mom and dad all together smiling. At that moment I felt a spring of energy. I sprint down the stair and open the storage room and that's when I see it. The thing I've needed but never really noticed it. My surfboard.
I drag it out dusting of all the dust and look at it with pride. I've only noticed till now how much it looked like my dads. Mine was just a simple electric blue with the words "believe" on the side in white. My dads was the same only it said "hope"
My surfboard needed to be waxed but I would do that later. There were so many things that I put off. This was one of them. ThAt needed to stop. I can deal with it all on my own. I don't need people help. What I need is to surf.
