I went down the walkway to the beach. It was getting dark and the sunset was beautiful. I sat down right next to the water and it was chilly but it felt great. I was the only one here for quite a while. I had my phone with me and I started listening to music quietly even though no one else was around. I turned it up when one of my favorite songs came on.. Drag Me Down.. yeah it was One Direction but some of their songs were actually okay and I had kinda been obsessing over this one. I started singing along with the music while looking up at the stars and the beautiful sunset. Hearing the waves crash just made the whole scenario perfect. As I was singing I heard someone start walking behind me.. at first I thought it would be my mom, but it turns out it was a guy. I turned around to see who it was. I didn't know him and he didn't look slightly familiar but god he was gorgeous .
"Hi, um.. I'm Callie" I said."I'm Justin" he said with a stunning smile.
"Sorry if I was being too loud, I can turn it down if you want.." I said while struggling to turn it down.
"No it's fine, I don't mind" he said once again with that amazing smile. "Believe it or not I actually kind of like that song. As much as I hate One Direction that song is actually okay." he said and I laughed.
"I'm not their biggest fan, that's for sure, but some of their music isn't too bad." I said.
"So, Callie, what school are you going to this year?"
"I'm going to be a Junior at Bayfield High. Where do you go to school?" I said.
"I'm going to be a Senior at Bayfield. Maybe we could hang out sometime?"
"Absolutely! How about I meet you down at the beach tomorrow at 3:45ish?" I said.
"I'll be there!" he said.
"So where do you live? Wow that sounded creepy.. I'm sorry I just meant it so we could hang ou-" I was cut off by Justin.
"Its fine!" He said while laughing. "I live about 15 Houses to the left of that one" Justin said as he pointed to my house.
"Great! because that's my house!" I said.
We somehow ended up both laying on our backs looking at the stars. He started to slowly move a little closer to me and honestly it was adorable. I hope we can become friends in school considering the fact that I don't know anyone who lives in Florida other than my cousins. I live in Pensacola and they live in Miami, which means that they live about 9 hours away. So I hope everything works out.
The first day of school was still 2 weeks away so I had some time to go get used to the town a little bit. The day after Justin and I met at the beach, I found a grocery store, a shopping mall, and a Pizza Hut. What else do I really need? I thought about Justin some more and wondered if I would ever see him in school. I also thought about Dani. Wishing she was here with me.
I called Dani when I got back home from driving around town. I told her how I met Justin and she met a guy named Preston. Her and Preston have a date tonight. Dinner and then the movies. I told her I was going to meet Justin at the beach tonight at 3:45ish which meant we had to get off the phone soon because it was 3:15 and I needed a swimsuit on under my clothes in case we got in the water.
I now have a swimsuit on under my clothes just in case. It was 3:38. I got my phone and sunglasses and by the time I found my phone, it was 3:42. Then I headed down the walkway to the beach. Of course he was already there which made me feel bad for taking so long. We started talking and ended up on the topic of his sister. Apparently, his sister is in my grade, loves meeting new people, and her name is Anna. He said he told her about me and how beautiful I was.. which I was not. Anyway, Anna wanted to meet me and I couldn't wait to meet her.
