Chapter 4 - Dinner and Dessert

After posting my status, I headed downstairs. I was hit with a wonderful smell that carried throughout the house. As I was going down the second floor stairs, I heard feet coming up behind me. I look back, and it was Kae.

“SAM! HOLY CRAP!” She half yelled, half whispered. I smiled, knowing what that was ALL about.

“You like him, don’t ya?” I asked, while poking her sides. All she did was blush, and smile. I laughed, and started to run down the stairs, her following. We ran into the kitchen, and were greeted by both families.

“Hey, honey. I want you to meet the Anne and Joe Cox. Along with Gemma, and Harry. They are the family we will be with for the next few months!” She said. Anne and Joe held out their hands, so I gladly shook it. Gemma said “Hey!” and walked to the fridge, and Harry smiled and gave me a hug. I laughed, and pulled back after a period of time. “For dinner, we’re having pork chops, with fries, or chips as they call it.” My mom added after I met everyone. As I started to go toward the dining room, I felt a hand grab my shoulder. I turned around, face to face with Harry.

“Sammi, you should sit next to me during dinner!” He said, running a hand through it curls. If I wasn’t mistaken, he was nervous about asking me that. I could tell the way he looked around the room, or at his feet, or his hand gestures. Whatever it was, it was cute.

“I’d love to Harry!” I said, making him calmer. “I’m going to go get a drink form the garage, you wanna come?” He nodded, and I grabbed his hand, and we started walking. I looked at him, and he was staring at me, smiling. I just realized what I did, and quickly let go of his hand.

“No, Sammi. It’s okay, I kinda liked it..” He admitted, while grabbing my hand back. I laughed, and we walked to the garage. I opened the fridge, and grabbed a Diet Pepsi. Harry grabbed a root beer, and shut the door. We walked in, still hand in hand, until we realized people were staring. I dropped his, and quickly walked next to Kae. We sat down, Harry sitting next to me. The parents started to bring out the food. Kae and I haven’t eaten since the plane, and I’m pretty sure everyone else hasn’t either. Once the food touched the table, everyone started to go for it. It was honestly a mad house, we looked like vouchers. I waited until everyone else got theirs, then went for the food.

After dinner, we all sat in the living room, which was probably bigger than my house back home. We were all just talking, getting to know each other. After about an hour of talking and laughing, we all decided that dessert would be great. For dessert, there were cupcakes and ice cream. I got some chocolate ice cream, and a big spoon. I sat down at the table, and started to slowly eat the chocolatey goodness.  Harry sat down next to me, and had vanilla ice cream. When he wasn’t looking, I took a bite of his ice cream.

“I saw that..” Harry said, trying to be intimidating. I laughed, and took another bite. He reached, and grabbed my whole bowl of ice cream, and started to eat.

“GIVE THAT BACK!” I said yelled, and laughing. He stuck his finger in it, and dabbed it on my nose. “That’s it, Harry!” And spread some of the vanilla on his cheek. We were having too much fun, that when the ice cream was gone, it was all over our face, hands, and clothes. My dad walked in, and laughed.

“What happened here?” We both laughed. “Go wash off with the hose in the back.” We got up, and opened the sliding door. I stopped. The view, it was incredible. The beach, the sunset, the nice breeze. Everything was great. Instead of going to the hose, Harry grabbed my hand , yet again, and started to run down the deck and to the beach. Being the adventurous person I am, I happily followed. We ran right into the crystal blue water, and he splashed me.That turned into a splash fight.

The the unthinkable happened..
