Far Away But Close Together

Surfing, Smoothies, Surprises

The waves were awesome today! They were so big.

...But they were really rough. I was the first one to wipe out.

I'm pretty sure I set the world record for wiping out.

Cody and Jake and Oliver wiped out a few good times.

The first time Cody wiped out, he came back up with his hair full of sea shells and sand. I started laughing at him and he got "angry" at me and ran at me and tackled me in the water. It really reminded me how much I missed surfing with him...

We all had so much fun, but by the first hour, everyone was tired so we all headed back to our own houses. I had just gotten out of the shower and I got a text from Cody

Cody: Hey! I miss your family! Can I come over and see them?

Me: Codes, if you want to see me, just climb the tree outside my window! ;)

Cody: oh yeah... I forgot! Sorry A

Me: haha! I'm pretty sure all of the traveling has made you forget what real life is!

Cody: Noooooo!!! I didn't know if ya cut down the tree (:

Me: ahahahaha I bet ;) see ya in a few. A few minutes later I heard a subtle knock outside my window, and there was Cody standing there with his guitar and two smoothies.

"Perfect! Thanks Codes!" I said grabbing the smoothie that said A.

"Yayyy! My favourite smoothie! Thank you! Looks like you haven't forgotten some things!" I said winking at him.

He laughed and said "Cheers! Now where can I put my guitar?"

"Just throw it on my bed!"

He did and sat on the floor and started looking around my room. His eyes caught a refrigerator box in the corner of my room.

"Now A... what is that?" he said taking a sip of his smoothie.

"oh... it's nothing"

"are you moving?"

"NO! I'm never leaving the gold coast!"

"haha! Can I look in the box? Pleassseeee???" he asked making puppy eyes.

"fine!" I said. He went open and he saw what was in the box, my acoustic guitar.

"When did you start playing?"

"Last year... right after you left... I was so sad my best friends were gone, so I learned to play. Is that okay?"

"Of course! Can I hear you play?"

"uhm no... not today... I'm not good..."

"Yeah right! My arse!" Cody retorted smiling at you.

He reached and grabbed his guitar and started playing Gentleman.

"Cody that is great! I love that song!"

"Good angel! Me too" he said giving me a huge hug.

"Well I gotta go, A! Mum wants me home in five minutes" he said checking his phone.

"K! Bye Codes! Thank you for the smoothie and visit!" I told him.

Cody crawled out of my window. Normally I watched him go home but I didn't today. I went and grabbed my guitar and started singing Lego House by Ed Sheeran. I didn't let Cody listen to me play the guitar because I always sing when I play and he doesn't know I can sing...or that I can. I sat on my bed and started singing and I don't know... Whenever I sing, I zone out.

When I finished singing Lego House, I went to go put my guitar up and there was Cody...
