Fourth of July — such a wonderful holiday. Celebrating the freedom of a nation that doesn't quite deserve the good rep everyone gives it; at least, that was Y/N's opinion.
Y/N never really like the Fourth of July - there wasn't any personal hate, she was just stubborn and whole-heartedly believed that the US was indeed doomed to failure. In her opinion , the US has been corrupted since the beginning of time.

It wasn't just that she hated this holiday, she hated being alone on this day. She'd never been with a person outside of family ; and yes, she loves her family, but it wasn't the same. Everyone would talk about spending it with friends — them at the beach, having a blast, setting off fireworks, watching them go off, every romanticized thing about the Fourth, Y/N has never been able to experience it.

So, when Y/N got an invitation from one of her classmates, she was more than eager to go.
"Maybe today will be the day".

Y/N gathered everything she would need for the beach : sunscreen , swimsuit , towels , her Crocs , sunscreen , tanning oil , and snacks; we could never forget the snacks.

Everyone was meeting at Alki Beach at 2 pm, and it was currently 1:30 pm. Y/N didn't live all too far away from Alki beach — a 30 minute walk, 10-20 minute drive. Y/N put everything in her car, (with the exception of the swimsuit which was on her body), and headed to the beach.

When the girl got there, she was surprised to see that there were a handful of people there. In her imagination, she would've been stood up, or the first one there — but boy, was she wrong. It felt as if the closer she got to her classmates, the more imaginary everything felt. Was her long awaited dream finally coming true?

Y/N was never the type to have high hopes - for if you are too hopeful, nothing will happen; because the universe does what it does and it's just part of life.

Y/N was soon snapped out of her thoughts when someone called her name.
"Y/N hey! I'm so glad you could come, here let me introduce you to some of my friends!"

The voice who called upon Y/N was Isla. Isla was beautiful to say the least — her gorgeous brunette hair with caramel highlights shining in the sun, and he perfect honey brown eyes which gleamed in the sun. Isla's freckles were probably the most gorgeous thing about the girl, physically anyway. Her freckles were scattered all throughout her olive toned skin, sitting perfectly on her already perfect skin.

To say the least, Y/N envied Isla. Not in the way where she hated the girl for being gorgeous, but the type where Y/N wanted to look like Isla.
The truth was, even if Y/N seemed like she didn't care, deep down how other people perceived her mattered most. So naturally, when there's a girl like Isla, Y/N was bound to be jealous.

Nevertheless, Y/N pushed away her insecurities and follows the beautiful Isla to her group of friends.
Y/N met most of Isla's friends ; they were all friendly, gorgeous too ; but one friend stood out from the crowd.

His name was Vincent. Vincent Hacker.

He didn't like going by "Vincent", so everyone called him, "Vinnie".
"Cute name" Y/N thought.

As the evening went on, Y/N had a blast. She hung out with all her newly-made friends, but while she was having fun, she kept her eyes on the beautiful Vinnie Hacker.
There was something about him that just got her hooked. The way the sun made his hair a stunning shade of dirty blonde , the way his eyes crinkled and his nose scrunched when he laughed , and every time they held eye contact , butterflies never seized to settle in her stomach.

At around 10 , everyone had decided to start blasting fireworks — and they were absolutely breathtaking. the way the fireworks erupted in the sky and the colours glistened everywhere, it was just ... wow.

"You look gorgeous," a voice rung from behind. Y/N jumped a little, then turned back to see him.

The most breathtaking man alive - Vinnie Hacker.

"What? Oh, thank you! You're name's Vinnie, right?"
Of course she knew his name, but she wanted to play it cool.

"The one and only ; and you're Y/N, right?"
Y/N giggled , "Why, yes I am. Would you like to watch the fireworks with me?"

Vinnie smiled and nodded, "It would be a delight, Miss Y/N."

That's what they did. For thirty minutes, they sat in silence , being in awe of the fireworks. What Y/N didn't know was Vinnie wasn't looking at the fireworks, but he was looking at her.

In Vinnie's eyes, she was the most ethereal girl he had laid eyes on. She was perfect , and he wanted, no, needed her. Every time she smiled, he couldn't help but fall more and more in love.

Soon, Y/N looked at Vinnie, who was still looking at her. As their eyes locked, Y/N had to look away, blushing as he had just caught her looking at him.

Vinnie smiled at the girl, and tapped her shoulder. Reluctantly, she looked back at him , and there he tilted her head and leaned in.

When their lips finally connected, the world just spun. Y/N had finally had her dreams come true, and she had her first kiss with the most handsome boy God could've given her.

As they pulled away, they both laughed.
"You know Vin, maybe this isn't such a bad holiday."

Vinnie chuckled, "And why may I ask did you think it was before?"
Y/N smiled and looked at him, "It's a long story, but if you want to listen, I'll tell"
"I want to know everything about you, Y/N."
