"So Joel, why did you decide to take me to the beach tonight?" I asked him, glimmering up at him and pulling at our joined hands.

"Well, I thought it would be a great time to finally get to talk to you." He replied, smiling and sitting down on our beach towel. The waves were splashing in the dark night and the beach was empty and still.

"So, what would you like to talk about? I'm very open." I said, not really thinking about what I was saying. 'I'm very open', who says that? Gosh, I'm an idiot.

"Maybe this.." Joel said. Slowly he leaned into me, his eyes dazed and smiling to me. I began to lean in as well.

Closer.

Closer.

Our eyes were both closed shut now.

Closer.

Closer.

I could sense his lips almost meeting mine.

Closer.

Closer.

"Watch out, Miss!" A voice yelled from across the beach. Seconds after the warning, a blue Frisbee smacked the side of my head, causing me to fall backwards onto my mattress.My iPod fell into the sand upon impact, along with my blanket. My head started throbbing, and I realized that moments ago, I was still asleep; dreaming of Joel.

"Are you alright?"

I looked up to a large, brown headed women clutching her purse with one hand and holding onto her son's shoulder with the other. Her frightened green eyes were looking down on the frisbee and her son's grey eyes were full or questions.

"Yes. I'm perfectly fine. Here." I said, rudely handing her the frisbee. I hate it when people look at me like I'm just a tiny bug under their microscope. I know its strange to be sleeping on a beach, but still.

"You poor thing! Is this all you own? Here. This is five dollars. Use it to buy FOOD, not DRUGS. OK? I'm trying to help you." The women said, tearing open her purse and dropping the five onto my lap. Does she really think I'm a user? People these days.

"Look lady.." I began, but before I could finish she had already ran off with her son. I watched her drop the Frisbee in the trash can on her way back to the center of the beach, and heard her promise to buy her son a new one that wasn't dirty.

After scooping up all of my belongings, I headed back to the house to eat a little breakfast. As usual, Jenna and mom were cooking pancakes, and my brother was upstairs in the shower. The house was pretty quite, despite the fact that the radio was on.

"Morning guys." I greeted them, dropping my back near the door. I ran to mom and gave her a hug. After running upstairs to take a quick shower. It was breakfast time. We ALWAYS eat breakfast at 9:30 when we go to the beach, so we have all day to be down by the ocean. During breakfast, my brother and I ate our pancakes and ran out the door, while Jenna and mom ate a lot slower and promised to be down to the beach soon.

The concession stand was over, so I decided to buy my usual; frozen lemonade. Once I payed the nice vendor, I walked along the beach; strutting my line green bathing suit and scanning the beach for any sign of Joel. Nope, no Joel. I had spent all my time trying to find him, that I completely forgot about my lemonade I had bought. So after finding a resting spot on the beach, I took a sip of it and watched the waves.

"So we meet again, Abby." I hear a voice say from above me. I recognized that it belonged to Joel, so I smiled up at him and beckoned him to sit.

"Nice seeing you again. What brings you over here?" I asked, being as casual as possible.

"Well, I was wanting to know if you wanted to join me for a midnight walk on the beach. You seem like a really great person, and I would like to get to know you some. I mean, if you want.." Joel said, trying to be bold but blushing. 

"I would love to, Joel. Meet you at the concession stand?" I said, trying to to smile too much. I couldn't wait!

"Sure. Well I have to be getting back to the hotel; we're going to breakfast soon. Cant wait to see you, Abby." He said, taking my hand and kissing it.
