*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
In my room I close the door behind me and I curl up on my bed with my pillows. Taylor Looked so much like him. Taylor’s sandy light brown blonde colored hair and his crystal blue eyes. So much like Dylan that it scares me. Dylan has dark brown hair and green eyes, but to me he and Taylor look alike. Dylan towers over me and Taylor is only a head taller than I am.
“Holly?” Kyle says while knocking on my door.
“I’m fine.”
“I just wanted to see how your day was.”
“It was great.”
“Can I come in?”
I wipe away my tears and say, “Yeah.”
He comes in and sits on the edge of my bed, “Hol, you don’t look okay.”
“Its nothing.”
“Holly, you’ve been crying its hardly nothing.”
“Taylor, I….I like him.”
“That’s great! But I don’t see why you’re crying.”
“We…we were about to kiss and…..I pushed him away because at that moment he looked like…” I trail off.
“Looked like who?”
“Dylan.”
Kyle pulls me to him and hugs me. “You’re miles away from him, don’t think about him.”
“I know….I’ve been doing so well. He hurt me in more than one way and I’ve been getting over it. But when I saw Taylor in that lighting, they looked so much alike.”
“Do you want me to talk to Taylor?”
“No! I don’t want him to know that I had my heart broken not long ago. I’ll tell him……eventually.”
“Kim and I are here whenever you need us.”
“I know, but I’m fine really. Its just a weak spot and I promise I’m getting better.”
“Taylor called and asked if it would be okay if he came over tomorrow and I told him yes, I hope that’s okay.”
“That’s fine.”
“Okay.” he hugs me and kisses my forehead and leaves the room.
I change into my pajamas and turn the TV on. I search through the channels until I find something to watch. I decide to watch Gilmore Girls, it’s the first episode of the first season. I’ve already seen it multiple times but I decide to watch it anyway. Halfway through the episode I fall asleep.
“Holly! Holly are you up yet?” Kyle yells. I roll over and get up our of bed. I slowly make my way over to the door and open it.
“Why are you up so early?” I mumble.
“Kim and I, we have to meet her parents for the day. Its only eight in the morning.”
“Exactly, its early. You could have just left me a note.”
“We wont be home until later tonight and I thought that I would let you know myself and in person.”
“Yeah whatever.”
“Shouldn’t you be up anyway?”
“Probably. I don’t like sleeping in late.”
“Then it’s a good thing I got you up. Oh and remember Taylor is coming over.”
“I almost forgot, what time?”
“I don’t know, I just told him to come over whenever.”
“Well why the hell did you do that? Now I have to start getting ready and I don’t even know when he is coming!”
“Sorry.”
“Its okay, I’ll see you later.” I close my door and run into the bathroom to turn the shower on. I take a quick shower, do my make-up and change into my bikini. I throw a pair of short and a tank top on before putting my auburn colored hair up into a messy bun.
Just as I’m running out of the kitchen, the door bell rings. I quickly put my dishes into the dish washer and start walking towards the door. As I’m walking towards the door I walk past the living room but the back up and look in the mirror. I look casual for living on the beach but not like so casual that I look awful. I make my way out of the living room and to the front door. I take a deep breath and open the door.
Taylor is standing in front of me in a pair of light blue swim trunks and a gray t-shirt. He’s wearing casual clothes but makes mine look like shit. I see that he has a backpack and only one strap is over his shoulder.
“Hey, so I guess that your brother told you I was coming over.” he says.
“Yeah, something like that.”
“He didn’t tell you just now did he? I asked him to tell you way before he left.”
“Don’t worry, he told me before he left.” I pause, “Which was when I he woke me up a hour ago.” I mumble.
“Huh?”
“Oh nothing.”
“So ready for surfing?”
“Sounds gre¾ wait what!”
“I told you that you were going to be able to surf by the end of summer.”
“Well yeah I know that, but I didn’t realize we were starting today.”
“I don’t know if you can even stand on a board let alone surf.”
“Have you been talking to my brother?”
“Why would you ask that?”
“Kyle is well, Kyle. He tends to stretch the truth when it comes to some things, like me not being able to stand up on a surfboard. That I can do.”
“You’ll have to prove that to me.”
“Can and will do!” he laughs and he grabs his surfboard and I grab one from the garage.
“Hey, how did you get that here on you bike?” I ask.
“I didn’t, I drove my jeep today.”
“Oh well that makes sense.” I think for a minute. “You mean you could have used your jeep to bring me into town instead of that….that…bike?!”
“Yup.”
“Oh don’t think that you are off the hook for that because you so aren’t!” I shove him and we head towards the water.
“Lets see how much I have to teach you.” he says.
“Whatever, but I’m telling you I can stand up without a problem, no matter what my brother says.”
“We’ll see about that.”
“I’ll prove it!”
“By all means.” Taylor gestures towards the water and I head in with the board.
