Him. || Colby Brock

two.

Rebecca's POV

-

My flight number is called and we board the airplane. I find my seat which just happens to be a window seat, thank God.  I put in my head phones, listening to The 1975. I lean my head up against the window and I feel myself drifting to sleep.

***

"We will be landing in Los Angels, California in 10 minutes," a voice says over the intercom of the plane, waking me. I look out of the window beside me. "Wow," I whisper to myself. The sun is just now starting to rise and the view is beautiful. I've never been on a plane before, but this is incredible. The 10 minutes go by quickly and we are landing. I grab my small backpack that I carried with me and we walk off the plane. I go to baggage claim. I look around for Sam and Colby and after a few seconds of looking, I spot the two of them looking for me as well. Sam's eyes lock with mine for a minute and tears come to my eyes and a smile spreads it's way across both of our faces. We run towards each other and he picks me up off the ground and spins me around before sitting me back down and hugging me tightly.

"I missed you so much," he whispers into my hair and I sniffle.

"I missed you too," I reply and he lets go. Colby  peeks around from behind him smiling just about the cutest smile I have ever seen in my entire life.

"I can't believe I finally get to meet you," he says and I nod my head in agreement. He pulls me into a hug and I feel my stomach flutter a little. When he pulls away, I look up at him and smile. Damn, he is attractive.

"You hungry?" Sam asks and I snap back into reality.

"Yes," I groan and he smiles. I grab my bags and they take them, refusing to let me carry them. When we get to the car, the put my bags in the trunk and I hop in the backseat.

"Where do you want to eat?" Sam asks as he pulls out of the airport.

"I'm down for where ever you guys wanna go," I respond and we think for a minute.

"Taco Bell?" Colby suggests and looks back at me.

"Yeah, if that's cool with you two," I say excitedly and they nod.

We pull into the drive thru and Sam orders our food. After getting it, everyone just decides to eat in the car.

"Jesus Christ Colby, you're making a mess in my freakin car," Sam groans and Colby slowly looks over at him, "Sorry bro," he says with his mouth full and Sam sighs. I laugh to myself a little and we go back to eating. Not long after, we pull into the parking lot of their apartment building. Man, this place makes my old apartment look like absolute trash. We walk up to their door and Sam unlocks the door. It isn't huge but it's still really nice, so much nicer than anywhere I've ever lived.

"Welcome to your new home," Colby says with jazz hands and I smile at him.

"Thank you guys so much," I say. "Awww, group hug," Colby says and they run towards me and we all almost fall on the floor, our laughter filling the room.

"So you guys are 100% sure about this? I don't want to intrude..." I say questioningly and Sam cuts me off.

"Becca, we want you to stay here, you're not intruding at all. Colby and I couldn't be happier about you being here, okay?" He says reassuringly and I nod my head and smile at him, "Okay."

"Here, let's take your bags into your room," Sam says grabbing my luggage and I follow. He leads me into a room and puts my bags by the door. "Here we are," he says simply and I look around.

"Wait, is this your room?" I question.

"Yeah, Colby and I agreed that you can take my room and I'll sleep on the couch."

"What, Sam I can't just come into your house and steal your bed, I'll take the couch," I say and he shakes his head.

"No, you're not stealing my bed, I'm letting you sleep in my bed. I'll be just fine, don't worry about it," he responds but I still feel bad.

"Fine, how about this: we can take turns. You sleep in here one night then the next night I will. Deal?" I wager and he thinks for a minute before nodding and shaking the hand I extended out to him. "Deal."

"Okay, what do you guys want to do?" Colby asks after I get unpacked and we're all sitting down on the couch.

"We could, uh, well..." Sam trails off in thought. "We could go for a walk on the beach, if that's okay with you guys?" He suggests and I nod happily.

"That sounds fun, I've actually never been to the beach before," I say and they give me weird looks. "What?"

"You've never been to beach before? Like ever?" Colby asks and I shake head. "Nope."

"Well now we obviously have to go," Sam says as they both jump up off the couch.

"How far away is the beach from here?" I ask.

"About 5 minutes or so by car. Why?" Sam answers.

"Okay, so do either of you guys skateboard or anything?" I ask and they look at each other.

"Yeah, we both penny board sometimes?" Colby answers as more of a question. "Well..." I trail off I as head into my room for a moment. I come out with my white and black penny board in hand. "You guys down?" I ask and they smile and nod. "Absolutely," Colby says and they both grab their boards and we are off to the beach.

When we get to the beach, we take off our shoes and put them with our penny boards behind a small bush where hopefully nobody would steal them. We all laugh as we run down towards the sand. I stand in the water up to my ankles and wiggle my toes around as the waves wash up on the shore. This is honestly the happiest I have been in a really long time. After standing there for awhile, someone runs up behind me and tries to push me down, Colby. I grab his wrist and pull him into the water and he trips and falls down.

As Colby starts to get up, I see Sam running at me out of the corner of my eye and I scream and start running. At this point, just about everyone is looking at us and for once, I don't care. My short legs fail me and within a few seconds, they catch up and tackle me. We all fall to the ground, laughing loudly. We all get up off the ground and I dust the sand off of my body.

We spend almost two and a half hours just walking down the beach, talking, laughing, and pushing and shoving each other around before we start heading back to where we left our stuff. So far, today has been absolutely amazing and I have a feeling that I'm not gonna be regretting my decision about moving here anytime soon.
