The Love Of My Life

Chapter 1

I was sitting at the beach. I stared out in the ocean and thought about everything. My mom met a new man and I was meeting him and his oldest son tonight. I sat there thinking about what to say. I looked up and saw a guy walking down the beach. He looked upset. I recognized him as Nick Carter.

"Nick?" I asked. He looked at me.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"My name's Bri, why are you upset?" I asked.

"My dad met a new woman, two weeks after his and my mom's divorce was finalized, I'm meeting her and her daughter tonight," Nick said.

"Weird," I said.

"What do you mean?" Nick asked sitting beside me.

"My mom has a new man and I'm meeting him and his oldest son tonight," I said.

"What's your mom's name?" Nick asked.

"Sue," I said.

"My dad's name is Bob," Nick said.

"That's her new man's name," I said.

"I think we just met each other," Nick said.

"Oh boy, my mom and your dad," I said.

"Yeah," Nick said.

That night, I was getting ready when the doorbell rang. I went downstairs and saw my mom heading for the door. She opened the door as I reached the bottom of the stairs.

"Hi Bob," Mom said.

"Hi there, this is my oldest son, Nick," Bob said. I smiled. I came downstairs. Bob and Nick came in.

"Bob, this is my daughter, Bri," Mom said.

"Hi," I said.

"Hi," Bob said.

"Hi Bri," Nick said.

"Hi Nick," I said.

"You two already know each other," Mom said.

"Yeah, we met at the beach," I said.

"Okay, let's go eat," Mom said.

We ate dinner and talked. We went into the living room and talked. I went out the back and sat down by the pool and looked up at the stars. I heard someone behind me.

"Bri, you okay?" Nick asked.

"Yeah, your father's nice," I said.

"Your mother's nice, too," Nick said.

"You're just like your dad," I said.

"You are like your mom," Nick said.

"I like you," I said.

"I like you, too," Nick said.

We looked at each other. He leaned forward and we kissed softly.
