Straight Outta Cali

Chapter 4

Monday morning

    "Ok class take out your essays, and Camila your songs. You'll be performing them at lunch, on the stage, in front of the whole grade," Mrs. Filk said.

    "What?" I questioned.

    She looked at me with a smirk and then we all hurried to the movies. This is gonna be cool.

    "Shawn, did you know about this?" I asked him.

    "Ya, I did," he answered.

    "Why didn't you tell me?" I asked.

    "I just didn't feel like it," he said.

    "Ugh, asshole " I said.

~~~

    It's time for lunch, which means that it's time for me to sing. I love singing, I just haven't sang in front of a lot of people in a really long time.

    "Now we have a special performance by Camila Doriento," announced Mrs. Filk in the microphone.

    The music to my breakup song called, Forever & Always, (Taylor Swift) started to play, and I started to sing. Once it finished the music to my love song, Love Story, (Taylor Swift) played. I was having so much fun singing, it was awesome. Everyone looked like they were having fun, and at the end they all clapped and chanted.

    I went back to my lunch table where Eleanor and Chanelle were sitting and eating. They congratulated me, and then we kept eating and talking.

    The girls and I were talking, and someone came to cover my eyes.

    "Who do you think it is," the person said in a fake high voice.

    "Hmm, is it Antonio," I said teasingly.

    "Hey!" said Shawn.

    He sat down next to me, we talked for the rest of the lunch period, and he walked me to my next class.

    "Do you surf?" he asked.

    "Ya, why?" I said.

    "Would you want to go surfing after school?" he asked.

    "That'd be awesome! I haven't surfed in a long time though," I said.

    "Doesn't matter, I'll pick you up at 4:30pm, ok?" he asked.

    "Ok, see you later," I said.

~~~

    I got home at 3:15pm. I hurried up to my room. I put on a simple black bikini, I put my wetsuit on top and but some black flip-flops on. I toke off my makeup and tied my hair in a high ponytail.

    "Camila! Someone's at the door!" yelled Max.

    "Ok, I'm coming!" I yelled back.

    I grabbed my beach bag that had random stuff in it, and sprinted downstairs.

    "Let me just go get my surfboard outside," I said.

    I ran outside, grabbed my board and ran back inside.

    "You ready," Shawn asked.

    "Let's go!" I yelled excitedly.

    We got in his car and headed to the beach. Once we got there we took our boards and ran into the ocean.

    "I haven't been in the ocean for so long! It feels so good!" I told him.

    "Haha! Now let's go surfing!" he said excitedly.
