Endless Summer

Chapter Five

Chapter Five:

After taking a shower I separate my hair and braid it. Even though its five and I have three hours I decide to change into my outfit. I pull on my black semi-flowy skirt that is about mid thigh and my turquoise blue short sleeve shirt. I put a pair of gold hoops in my ears and straighten my diamond necklace that Kyle got me for Christmas six months ago. I never take the necklace off, I should especially when I sleep but I don’t. I do my make-up, the natural look. I never have worn a ton of make-up I think that it looks awful. I run downstairs and eat something small.

With three hours to kill I decide to call Julie. I haven’t talked to her since the day I left. I dial her number and she answers on the third ring.

“Holly!”

“Julie!”

“Hey girl! How have you been?”

“I’ve been good. I actually have something to tell you.”

“What is it? Does it have something to do with Dylan, I swear to god if it does I’m going to kick his¾ ”

“It doesn’t. I’m going on a date tonight.”

“Oh my god! With who? Is he cute?”

“His name is Taylor and yes! He’s very cute. I wish you could see him!”

“May I remind that I am coming to see you at the end of the summer!”

“True! I have so much to tell you.”

“Well spill!”

“Okay so I found out that I have known Taylor my whole life.” I start with that and I tell her everything.

“Whoa! Like whoa!”

“I know! I really like him, but after things with….I cant move fast at all.”

“Holly that’s totally understandable.”

“I know, but I don’t want to lead him on if I cant handle it.”

“Go out with him tonight and only think about the date don’t worry about anything else. You’ll never know until you try.”

“I wish you were here so I could hug you.”

“Just go have fun.” we hang up and I have ten minutes left until Taylor gets here. I undo my braids and put a ton of hairspray in my hair. I then put on my favorite perfume and make my way down the stairs and into the living room.

“Well someone looks nice.” I jump when I realize that its just Kyle.

“You scared me!”

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to. But you do look really pretty.”

“Thanks, I’m going out with Taylor.”

“I’m going to have to have a little talk with him first.”

“Please don’t.” I whine.

“Hol, I’m doing it for you.”

“I know, but please don’t.”

“Just this once, and then I wont do it again.”

“Fine.” I hear a car door close. “He’s here.” I sit down on the couch and Kyle goes to open the door. I hear mumbles and I see Kyle walk into the kitchen, Taylor following him. A few minutes later they come out laughing. I stand up and walk over to them.

“You look great Holly.” Taylor says.

“Thanks, you look good too.”

“Shall we?” I nod and Taylor opens the door. I wave to Kyle and walk with Taylor down the driveway. I look for Talor’s motorcycle but I don’t see it. I look for his jeep and don’t see it either. I follow Taylor and he leads me to his jeep that is parked on the other side of the street. He opens my door and helps me in. He gets in on his side and starts driving.
