Chapter 8: To The Beach

The beach is not a place to work; to read, write or to think - Anne Morrow Lindbergh

*Still On The Plane*

Dustin: Wake up...Wake up.....MA WAKE YOUR LAZY BEHIND UP

Me: Go away

Dustin: Wakey Wakey

Me: Never.Ever.Say.That.Again

Dustin: Whatever, wake up the plane is landing

I sit up and stretch out my arms. I put my head back to where it was when I realized my head is on top of his legs. Aquward. I quickly move again and check on my sister and Dylan since there right in front of us. Awwww they look so cute, her head is on his chest and his head is on top of her.

Speaker: The plane has officially landed, ladies and gentlemen welcome to Malabo, you may now grab your luggage and exit the plane, single file

(Everyone Claps)

I stand up and grab my luggage from the top compartment then grab my bags that are on the floor. I woke everyone up and then then we followed the signs to Baggage Claim, grabbed our baggage then went to our hotel.

***At The Hotel***

We walked up to the counter to get our room keys from the reception lady.

Me: Excuse me we made a reservation. It should be under the name Diamond

Diamond: Why is it under my name?

Me: Girl your mom is like the most famous person In fashion right know and besides I have bad credit

Diamond: Yah yah yah

Linda: Well that will be $1000.00 that includes unlimited room service

Nia: Damn

Me: Naaaah B, I don't have that kinda cash, well I do, but that's for food and clothes

Rèquan: wait a minute how much is it with no room service

Linda: That would be.......... $125

Rèquan: Sold

Cece: Ima pay

Me: WAIT

Cece: what?

Nye: did you just say your gonna pay for something

Cece: shut up

***Diamond's POV***

We finally here, Malabo,Maybe I should hit the beach,but I promised that cute Devon guy I would call him as soon as I got to the hotel.

Me: NIA!!!!

Nia: What?!?

Me: Feel like going to the beach

Nia: yah sure

Me: ask everybody else and ima call the cute guys, Devon and Tyrell

Nia: Kk

I nervously pick up the phone and dial his number, on the third ring he answers

Devon: Daniels residents

Me: Hi may I speak to Devon

Devon: This is him speaking, may I ask who is talking

Me: Oh well this is Diamond

Devon: The fine and smart one?

Me: yeah.... how many diamonds to you know?

Devon: Just had to be sure

Me: Anyways the reason I called is because me and my friends are going to the beach and we would love it if you and your friend Tyrell would come?

Devon: Can I bring my some friends? Other than Tyrell

Me: Defiantly

Devon: One more question beautiful, Which beach?

Me: Zuma Beach

Devon: it's 5:30 now, so we'll meet you there, 5:45?

Me: Sure, no prob.... Oh and Devan

Devan: Yeah

Me: Technically that was two more questions

Devon: See you later beautiful

Me: Later

I hang up the phone and instantly feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Nia walks in and leans on my door frame.

Nia: Okay so everyone is coming, are the guys coming?

Me: Yup, there gonna meet us at the beach in 15

Nia: K, since our hotel is right beside the beach I'll meet you there

Me: Alright

When Nia walks out I go into my suitcase and pick out my bathing suit. When I finally finish getting changed I put on some shorts and a top over what I'm wearing and grab a towel and my Nexus 5. I quickly check my phone and it's 5:36, so I grab my spare clothes, my swim bag and leave. It's time to have fun.
