"Rylan, wake up." Says my best friend Catie while she creeps into my room.
"What do you want." I say half asleep. I turn around to see Catie sitting next to me in my bed.
"Guess where we are going today." She say all excited.
"Where." I say with a straight face.
"We are going to California for the whole summer!" Catie say jumping on my bed. " so you better get up and pack!" She says skipping out of my room. I get up and put my hair into a bun. I walk around my room trying to think of what I should pack. I open my closet and pack 17 shirts and 20 pair of pants. I pack my underwear and my bras. I then look for my bathing suits that are most likely still in the basement because summer just started. I go into the basement and I walk past a picture of my father. He passed away when I was 5. That was 11 years ago. I look at the picture and I take it with me upstairs with my bathing suits. I pack my beanies,
Socks and shoes, I then go into the bathroom to pack my toothbrush and toothpaste along with my makeup. I walk outside and put the bags in the car.
"You ready ry?" Catie asks while walking to the car.
"Yeah are we driving half and half?" I yell out of the car window.
" I was just going to drive the whole way but if you want to drive half and half we can." She says while walking around the car.
"It's up to you. You planned this trip" I say to her.
"I like driving so I'll just drive the whole way." She says smiling.
" okay just tell me if you get tired and ill take over" I say closing my eyes.
She wanted to drive the whole way because she knows I'm not a good driver. And I wouldn't blame her, I want to spend my summer alive too. Catie blasts the radio as the song tumblr girls by g-eazy plays. I open my eyes and start singing
"CAUSE IM IN LOVE WITH THESE TUMBLR GIRLS WITH SKINNY WAIST AND DRUG HABITS"
We roll down the windows and listen to more music. We stop to get lunch because we never really got to eat breakfast before we left. We went through the drive through and got our food. After a few hours we arrive to California. We get to the hotel and unload our stuff. I look up and see two muscular boys. One of them turns around and looks at Catie and I.
" I'll catch up with you soon" the boy says to his friend. He starts to walk over to us.
" Hey I'm Matt. Do you need help unloading?" He asks with a big smile on his face.
"I think we're good." Catie says while looking up at me. I turn to her with Matt standing be hind me I mouth to her the works oh my god and smile at her, then I turn around to Matt again.
" hey do you guys want to come down to the beach with me and a few of my friends?" He says.
" uh yeah sure." Catie says while looking at me.
"Alright cool I'll see you in an hour or so?" He says smiling at me.
"Yeah." I say smiling back.
He turns around and starts to walk towards the lobby.
" we get here for about 10 minutes and you already have a boy flirting with you." She says smiling.
"He wasn't flirting." I say while she gives me a straight face. "He was being friendly." I tell her while smiling.
"He was totally flirting." She say.
"Whatever." I say while rolling my eyes.
We get up to our floor and walk to our room. We see Matt and a few other boys about 5 rooms down. They are goofing off and recording each other. One boy with brown hair looked over to Catie. He smiled at her and comes over.
"Hey I'm Shawn." He says
" I'm Catie and this is rylan." She says smiling.
" so you are the girls that Matt talked to." He says. "You know he hasn't stopped walking about you." He says lookin at me. I look at Catie and she smirks at me.
"So you guys are coming to the beach with us?" He says looking at Catie.
"Yeah we're coming down soon." She says with a big smile on her face.
"Cool. We'll meet you down there." He says walking backwards.
"Okay cool." She say while putting the key into the doorknob. Shawn goes back with Matt and his other friends.
I look at her and give her a smirk.
"Shut up" Catie says while laughing.
" we get here for 10 minutes and you already have a boy flirting with you" I say mocking her when we were in the parking lot.
