Amy's POV
I spent the whole Friday trying to figure out what I was going to pack for the beach. I packed my orange shorts and my denim shorts. I also packed two singlet tops and my bright yellow bikinis and my red with white polka dot bikinis. I also packed a pair of flip flops, a pair of flats and my long black beach dress. I packed everything else I thought I would need before Riker came. 'Okay, purse, hair ties, surf board still in the garage.' I was saying to myself when Mom walked into the house. "Where are you going?" Mom asked putting her shopping bags down. "To the beach, with Rylands older brother Riker. And before you say anything, we are not dating and we won't be doing you know what." I said to her sternly. "Amy, just don't get drunk." She said, "Mom. I can't even drink yet." I reminded her and ran out side to grab my surf board, I asked Riker in the middle of the week if I could bring mine. I don't know if I was more excited or more nervous. The door bell rang and Dylan went to open it even though I clearly warned him I would.
"Hey Riker!" I heard him yelled, "Hey Dylan is your..." He trailed off when he saw me. "Hey." I said, "Do you want to come in?" I asked and he stepped in. "Sure." He said and followed me into the lounge room where my surfboard and my bag was. "Is that all you're bringing?" He asked, "Uhh yeah." I said now stressing out. "Rydel usual packs her whole wardrobe when we go." Riker joked and I smiled. He grabbed my surf board and my bag and he put them in his car. "Bye Mom." I said, hugging her. "Bye Amy." She said seriously and I giggled. "Have fun with out me." I said to her as I was walking out, "oh we will." Dylan said and I rolled my eyes and shut the front door.
We arrived at his beach house. "Hey, can you grab my bag and I'll take your surf board around the back." Riker said, "Okay then." I said and he also gave me the keys to the house. I spent a whole five minutes trying to find the right key for the lock. Once I did I grabbed the bags and walked in. It was really small and cute. "You're finally in." Riker said as he grabbed an apple from the fruit basket. "Yeah. So that blue key opens the front." I added, and he nodded, "Let me show you around," he said. "So, in this room we have the master bed room, or Mom and Dads room. Here, we have the room where most of us stay." He said and he opened the door and there were three bunk beds. "And in this room, there are three single beds." Riker said as he showed me another room.
"Cool." I said and we walked back to the kitchen. He opened the curtains and and you could see the beach. "Wow." I said, "Can we go outside?" I asked getting excited. "Sure." He said and opened the door to the back. "You can see the whole beach." I said walking out and standing knee the edge. "Yep. And right down those stairs..." He said and I followed him, "The tides coming in." He said changing what he was about to say. A chilly breeze came and I began to shiver. I kinda hoped Riker noticed this. "Here." Riker said taking his jumper off and putting it on me. "Thanks." I said and hugged him, and another cold breeze came. "Let's go inside." He said, and I followed him in. We previous ate on our way down here so Riker just grabbed some M&Ms and some candies in a bowl and we ate those.
Riker's POV
Amy went to have a shower so I stayed in the lounge room eating. I heard a knock at the door, I assumed it was just the wind but then I heard someone continuously call my name. I went to go see who is was, "RIKER ANOTHY LYNCH, OPEN THE DAMN DOOR!" Dad yelled, Crap. I opened the door to see the rest of the family. "Riker. What are you doing here alone?" Mom asked me and pinched my cheek. "Oh his not alone." Ross said to Mom. "What, then who's here?" Mom asked and Amy came out from the hall way. "Hey Stormie." Amy said, "oh sweetie, let me look at your eye." She said, and hugged her. "Yes, you eye isn't swollen anymore." Mom said to her, "Thank you so much for those eye drops, they really helped." Amy said, "That's good." Mom said. "When did you two get here?" She asked, "Like a hour ago." I said, and I saw our cousin Lori walk in. "Hey Rikes." She said, "Hey." I said and hugged her. Later in the night our new friend Ratliff came with his girlfriend Kelly.
I was on the top bunk and Lori, Rydel, Ryland, Ratliff and Kelly, were all spread out amongst the other bunk beds. Amy, Ross and Rocky were in the other room with the single beds. "Okay, who idea was it to come to the beach." I finally said, "What?" Lori said, "Who idea was it to come here." I asked getting even more furious. "Uhh." Rydel said, and a small noise came out of her mouth, "Mine." She said, "Why, if you knew I was going to take Amy out on a date tomorrow." I said to her across the bunk. "Well, I'm sorry, she's my friend to." Rydel said, "I hate all of you guys." I said, "Riker. I hardly know you, but what you should do is, just talk to her. Just tell her that you do, just don't assume she will." Kelly said to me. She put a lot of emphasis on the word assume. "Okay then." I said, and grabbed my phone out.
Amy's POV
I was sitting on my bed in my pyjama shorts and a T-shirt. When I received a text from Riker.
- Meet me on the beach at 7 am, so we can go surfing. 🏄 also, I was wondering if you wanna go on another date. Just you and me?
I smiled. I'm actually missing him even though we're like a room part. Why am I having these feelings?
- Yay! I can't wait. I missed you emojis, I also miss you. I'd love to go on another date I with you. When?
I sent and soon after received another one.
- Really? How about I buy you lunch? There's this really cute cafe down the road. I could take you there. ☕ I miss you too.
"Who you texting?" Ross asked, as he sat down next to me. He was only in shorts. "I Uhh, no one." I said, "Oohhh, you're texting Riker." He said looking over my shoulder. "Ooo. What did he say?" Rocky said and sat across fork us on his bed. "Not much. We're going on another date." I said smiling. "Two dates with the same woman. He just think you're really special." Ross said, "Where?" Rocky said, "I'm not telling you. Because then you'll come and watch us." I said looking him straight in the eyes and he looked to the left. This is how you detect a good lier. "Whaaaaaat? No we w-won't." Rocky said, and Ross blushed.
"You guys are great. But, I don't know if I'm going to get serious with Riker. His always ignoring me, and he doesn't seem to really have an interest in me." I told them biting my bottom lip. "Oh come on" Rocky said, "He really likes you. He talks about you all the time." Ross said, "He loves that you're different. Not many people around here are from around here." Rocky said, "And, he loves that you're an outgoing person. He's also trying to get that job at the restaurant so he can spend more time with you." Ross added. "R-really?" I said. "Really." He said and hugged me. "Night Amy." He said, and went to his bed which was closest to the door. "Night Ross, Night Rocky." I said, "Good Night Amy." Rocky said and we all feel asleep. I couldn't get Riker off my mind.
