As it seems

Beaches and creeps

I'm so excited! I'm going on a trip with Nat, Jay and Jay's older brother Nico. We're going to Santa Barbara!! I'm packing my things and I hope I don't forget anything, I'm just so nervous and excited.
- Are you all packed?- mom said as she entered my room.
- Almost- I replied.
- I'm going to miss you baby- mom said with sadness.
- Come on mom, it's just 5 days. You won't even notice I'm gone- I said encouragingly.
I continue to pack and when I finish I go downstairs to say goodbye to everyone.
- I'll miss you all- I said as I entered the kitchen.
- Come here baby- said my dad motioning for a hug.
- I promise to send photos- I said.
We hear a beep.
- They're here!- I said enthusiastically.
My dad helps me get my things outside. When we're outside Nico and Jay get out of the van to help me get my things in the back. The van is really spacious, it has three rows of seats and a huge space at the back so we can place our bags. I get into to the van and wave goodbye to my parents and brother.
- This is going to be amazing!- I said.
- You ready for the time of your life?- asked Nico.
- Yes!- said Jay.
We went to Nat's house and then we were all set. This was going to be the best trip ever!
Santa Barbara wasn't that far but it still took almost 4 hours to get there. We stopped for gas, to eat, we even stopped to take pictures. What can I say, the scenery was incredibly beautiful. When we got to SB we searched for a hotel near the beach, fortunately there was one not even 5 minutes from the beach.
We go to our rooms, one for Nico and the other for Nat, Jay, and me, and we put our swim suits on so we could go to the beach. We exit the hotel and walk to the beach, we find a spot and put our things down. Nat, Jay, and I lay on our towels while Nico goes to the sea. We spend 1 hour tanning and then we go to the sea and swim, well if you could call standing in the ocean swimming, after swimming we go back to our towels and lay there for another hour.
- Hey! Isn't that our new professor?- asked Nat pointing to a man with sunglasses.
- He sure looks like him- I said.
- That's creepy, and have you noticed those two people over there- said Jay looking towards a couple seating some meters away from us,- they've been staring at us all the time we've been here-
This was really creepy, and strange. I almost never see my teachers outside of school let alone in a different city.
- Well, this is a huge coincidence. And that couple is starting to creep me out. Let's go grab something to eat and walk for a while, ok?- I offered.
- Yeah eating sounds great!- said Nat.
We asked Nico if he wanted to come too but he decided to stay at the hotel to rest, I guess driving can be tiring.
We went walking and stopped at a little restaurant to eat, when we get to the hotel we went to our room and got ready for bed. When I was in bed I couldn't stop thinking about the couple on the beach, they kind of felt familiar, like I've seen them before. Well, all this thinking won't do any good so I tried to sleep.
Next morning we grab our things and go to the beach again, this time we go to the sea instead of laying on the towels. We spend like 1 hour and a half on the sea playing with the waves, then we go to our towels and decide to go somewhere kind of nice to eat. We go back to our rooms and shower and put some nice clothes on. The restaurant was nice and it wasn't expensive at all so we had a really good time.
The next day we don't spot the creepy couple again, or maybe they were being more careful, I know I'm thinking too much about it but I'm known for overthinking things.
This is our last day in SB and we plan on making the best of it, we walk around and rent some bicycles, then we go to the beach. It was a really good day, until I spotted the creepy couple again, they were staring at us. I just wanted to go to them and ask if they wanted anything, they shouldn't be starting at people. Nat noticed me staring at something so she followed my line of sight to find the creepy couple.
- Does it creep you out when people stare at you?- asked Nat.
- Yes- I replied.
- Then stop starting at them- said Nat like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
I stopped staring at them and after some time I forgot about them.
When we got bored of the water we went to I rooms. We each take a shower and get ready to go for dinner. We go to a seafood restaurant and then to sleep. Next morning we wake up early so we can get going and arrive home early. When I get home all my family receives me with hugs.
- How did it go baby?- asked my mom.
- It was great! We had a lot of fun, we should definitely do this again- I said happily.
- I'm glad you enjoyed it, we're meeting Natalie, Jennifer and their families at Mr. Crumbs. So go get ready- dad said.
Mr. Crumbs was one of our favorite restaurants. They have every kind of food so everyone can order whatever they like.
I get ready and then we leave to Mr. Crumbs, when we're at the restaurant we tell our parents all we did and also that we hope we can do something like this again.
