Souvenirs

Nat never came back and tomorrow I’m going to get her because she left me alone with Logan. I dragged him to the gift store to buy some souvenirs for my me and my buddies. I was walking when I found the perfect gifts; they were little cheap plush toys that connect to be this big bracelet. I got a penguin for me, shark for Sammy, dolphin for Nat, and a goldfish for Sky.

“That’ll be $15,” the cashier said

“But I only got 4 and they’re $3 each?” I said when I noticed another one there. A cute little turtle

“Awww well aren’t you a cute little turtle stowaway. Bet you wanna get away from here, huh?” I said giggling but then got wide eyed. Money!?!?  I remembered I gave my money to Nat for safekeepings; I am just horrible with money.

“Here I’ll pay for it, don’t worry” Logan said while taking out the necessary amount of cash and giving it to the cashier. When we got out of there I stopped him.

“Thanks” I smiled my biggest smile and he actually smiled back.

“Here you have to keep one now, and since you paid you get to choose,” I said opening the bag. I at least owe him that much

“I’ll take the turtle. The little stowaway” he said taking the little turtle and smiling at me as I took it from him and grabbed his wrist to put it on him. He kept looking at me while I put the stowaway turtle on his wrist, causing me to blush under his stare. Then when done he grabbed my hand and we went sprinting towards the busses. Where we parted ways again just like last time, and went away without looking back. I took a seat next to Sam and both just stayed silent until the bus was in movement.

“So how was it? Did it go according to plan?” I asked happily taking out some gummy bears for the ride back. I looked over at him to offer him some but regretted it when I saw his face. He looked so sad it was killing me. Someone as amazing as him shouldn’t be mopping over Sky, he should be happy and always smiling his million-dollar smile. Sky just had to kill him, why doesn’t she ever realize anything. Like the reason she’s wanted by all those guys is her body, and when someone truly likes her and her personality she rejects them away like nothing. She makes me so mad, but I know she’s gonna say something that will always make me forgive her.

“You know, you can’t plan stuff out. They just happen. Maybe you just need to wait for it happen instead of trying to push it,” I said pushing back his hair to see his eyes. Seeing my efforts were pointless I grabbed my bag from the souvenir shop and opened it in front of him

“Here you can choose which one you want,” I said trying to make him feel better. He reached in there and got the penguin, and even with my love for them, I allowed him to take it.

“Here I’ll put it on you” I said taking his wrist and repeated the same thing I did with Logan only this time slower appreciating the time I had his wrist in my tiny hand. Slowly I connected the hands of the penguin forming the bracelet, letting my fingers linger on there for a bit more. When I looked up at him, he was looking at me.

“After you guys left and Sky and I were left alone I took her to the otters. Everything was going well and we were having so much fun. We both went around talking about just the random things of life. We stopped at a dipping dots stand and I bought some for the both us, you know trying to be a nice person. Then while eating it I was about to tell he but right then at that moment her whole male harem just showed up and I took that time to go away,” he said while looking out the window at the scenery passing by without a care.

“Come on Sammy, if it wasn’t meant to be then it just wasn’t. No need to mope around or did you forget that we are on a vacation on the beach. Now give the penguin a kissy and we shall call him Sheldon,” I said poking him. He smiled and soon was back to himself, joking about Logan and me coming together, or just about my short cuteness.

“We shall give you the honor of receiving the dolphin, Madame Paige,” he said putting it on me. My wrist felt tingles as his fingers were connecting the dolphin’s flippers. He let his fingers linger there just like I did for him and then moved them away leaving it cold where his skin touched mine.

“His name shall be Jeremy Fisher, and he shall receive an eternity of lovin,” I exclaimed making him chuckle at me.

“Aren’t dolphins girls and sharks men?” he asked trying to make me mad.

“No I bet dolphins are just gay sharks, which is why all of the female population loves so much, including me,” I said while sticking out my tongue at him and kissing Jeremy Fisher. The bus stopped at our condos and we all get out ready to have a nice afternoon at the pool with a cook-out thanks to our directors.
