Zoey's POV

I love the beach.From today I will come to beach everyday.I reached the beach at 5.Ian said he would be on the surf ends.And he was there long before 5.I didn't want go near him.I wish I could look at him allday.Ian,leaning against the pole.His legs flushed,waves rippling over.He looked over at me and I had to look away.I walked over slowly.

"You came,I thought you wouldn't" Ian smiled.

"Why wouldn't I?"

"I don't know."

"You wanna walk?"

"Yeah sure"

We walked by the side of the ocean,waves coming towards us and again going back taking away all the tension.

"I'm truely sorry for calling you beautiful,If i had thought it through I would have said something better."

"It happens sometimes but i have a question."

"Aha,go on."

"I have heard girls say ' your hot your handsome'

but why did you say I'm beautiful," Ian said.

 but why did you say I'm beautiful," Ian said

Because you are.I wish I could say that.

"As I said before I didn't thought it through." I smiled sheepishly.

I don't know what was so funny but I was greatful.Ian burst into laughter.

I have never seen him laughing before.He looked

so innocent while laughing,his rough manly

voice breaks into a child's laugh when he

laughs.I could see him like that the rest of

my life.

"Zoella?"

I was interrupted by Ian.

"The sun is almost down.You want me to drop you?"

"No,my house is only a few blocks away."

"So can I walk you home?"

"Sure."

We walked the whole way silently.When we a few houses away I asked,

"Uhmm..do you want to grab lunch with me tomorrow?"

He could say no because he has his own friends.Why would he want to lunch with me.It felt like my question made him uncomfortable.I could say from the look on his eyes that he's gonna say no.

"Umm...the thing is that I don't eat from

cafeteria.My sister brings my food."

There you go.I just humiliated myself all over again.

"Why are you some kind of vampire that you

can't eat normal food?"I teased.

He gave me a little smile and said,"No,I just

don't like the food in here."He sounded a little hesitant.

"Ian!"

A sweet female voice.It was Ian's sister,Chole.

"Chole! Zoella this is my sister Chole",he pointed to her.

Chole smiled at me and said,"Nice to meet you.I

have seen you before."

"Yes,we have our history class together", I

added.

Chole nodded and then looked at Ian with a serious expression.

"Ian,aren't you forgetting something you had to do ?"

"Fuck!" Ian cursed,"Sorry I have to go"

"I'll see you la.."I couldn't finish as Ian walked away with

Chole fast.

"Well that was awkward." I said to myself.

After getting my keys from the treepot i opened door to my empty house. Cold air breezed my face,i am not alone today. Tina always cranks up the AC to the hightest.Well I got used to it.It's just me and Tina,she was my babysitter when I was little she's still is.Now she babysit others baby.She takes care of me,cooks for me and does pretty everything.She was supposed to stay with her mum today.Whatever I don't have to cook now.

"You're late."Tina inquired

"Well you weren't suppose to know that."I snapped.

"Haha." she fake laughed.

"When did you get here?"

"This afternoon."

"How is your mum?" I asked leaning before the mirror.

"She's as annoying as always,she told me to get married and i.."

"T,look at my hair."

"What happened? "Tina said while adjusting her glasses.

"My red hair is peaking out." A sudden tension rushed to my face,"It was visible the whole time..shit shit."

"Don't panic.It hardly can be seen."

"No you don't understand,Dad told me to.." I panicked

"Calm down.Let me run to 7-11 and get a color pack."

"Okay."
