California Dream

Chapter 7

My eyes flutter open. I sit up and look at the clock- 8:30. I walk downstairs and make myself a cup of coffee carefully carrying it into the living room. I turn the TV on. Spongebob flashes on the screen, I decide to leave it.

Raphael jumps onto my lap and curls up falling asleep within minutes. My phone lights up with a text from Connor.

Connor: Morning beautiful(:

Me: Good morning gorgeous(;

Connor: haha(: I didn't wake you up did I?

Me: No I'm just watching TV with Raphael

Connor: Who's Raphael?

Me: The kitten the guys found. I let Erin pick the name so she decided Raphael like the ninja turtle

Connor: I like it! So do you want to do something today?

Me: sure what would you want to do?

Connor: you pick I chose last night

Me: How's the beach behind my house sound? you can bring all the guys and I can bring Erin.

Connor: Sounds great! I'll text you in a bit

Me: ok!

I lock my phone and turn the TV off and put my coffee cup in the sink. I hear Erin walk downstairs.

"Morning," I say.

"Morning."

"You want to do something today?" I ask.

"Sure, what would you want to do?"

"Well I was texting Connor and he said he could bring the guys and all 8 of us can hangout at the beach."

"Sounds fun!" she says with a smile.

"Well I'm going to take a shower so I'll be back."

"Ok," she replies. I go upstairs, take a quick shower and get dressed. I check my phone one new text from Connor.

Connor: We'll be over around 11.

I look at the time- 10:30.

Me: okie dokie!

I lock my phone and go downstairs. "Hey the guys will be over around 11:00," I say plopping down on the couch next to Erin.

"Ok what time is it?"

"10:30," I say.

"Alright I'm going to take a shower."

"Alrighty." I follow her upstairs and we separate going into our own rooms. I pick out a yellow bikini with aqua blue dots on it. I fix my hair into a messy bun and put on a pair of jean shorts and a tshirt.

I hear the doorbell ring so I run downstairs and open the door. "Come on in!" I say to the guys.

"Hey," Connor says as he walks in. I take them into the living room and tell them to put their stuff anywhere. I run upstairs and tell Erin all the guys are here.

"Are you guys thirsty or hungry?" I ask them.

"Nope," they all say. Erin comes downstairs and starts a conversation with Jc as we walk to beach.

Me and Connor stay behind the rest of them and talk. "Last night was amazing," I say to him.

"It was a great night," he agrees. leaning down and giving me a kiss. we set our things down and me and Erin decide to tan while the guys play volleyball.

"Hey Erin," I look up to see a tall tan guy standing next to Erin. she quickly stands up so I follow.

"What do you want Kenny?" she says with disgust. An even taller guy comes up behind him.

"Well I saw you from down the beach and thought I'd say hi," he says

"Whose that?" she asks.

"This is Travis. Whose your friend?" He questions.

"I'm Annie," I speak up still confused.

"Why don't you two come and hangout with us," Travis says.

"I'd rather not," Erin says.

"Hey, what's going on here?" Connor asks as he walks up with Jc.

"Who the hell are you," Travis says to Connor.

"I'm Annie's boyfriend so how about you leave." he shoots back at him.

"Really because you look gay," Travis says back.

"No one fucking wants you here so go find some slut and leave." Connor spats.

"That's kind of what we were doing until you little bitches came over," Travis says. At that point I kick Travis in the groin and he cringes falling to the ground.

"I am not a slut you dick!" I scream at him.

Jc and Connor both punch Travis and in the stomach putting him in more pain. Erin and I finally break the beating up and tell Travis and Kenny to leave before we call the cops.

Travis gets up from the ground slowly and walks away with Kenny. Erin looks at Jc.

"Thanks for helping us," she says giving him a hug.

"It's no big deal," he says flashing her his smile.

"How do you even know that Kenny guy Erin?" I ask.

"The first week I got here I was tanning here and Kenny came up to me and we started talking. He seemed really nice at first but he was treating me like shit the more I talked to him. I hadn't talked to him since until he came over here," she says.

"I really wish I could've told them off. Now that would've been a good one!" I say. I've always had a gift for telling people off, I guess you could say it was a gift. Whenever Erin would have to yell at someone and she didn't want to do it she'd leave it to me.

Erin laughs a little,"it sure would've been."

I look up at Connor for the first time since the guys had walked away. Anger is still flaming in his eyes.

"Connor calm down they're gone. We're both fine." I say looking in his eyes.

"I just hate guys like that. They think they're so cool and that they can get any girl at the snap of their finger," he says.

"I know I hate guys like that too," I say.

I give him a hug and his eyes soften back to the gentle green I've always loved. I give him a kiss and he smiles down at me.
