Home Sweet Home

4

We all run out the door and across the commons

I felt at home the moment my shoes hit the sand.

We sat on the dock, our feet hanging over the edge and in the water.

It was relaxing, even when Ben shoved Hi and Shelton in the water.

Their phones were in a bowl of rice behind us along with all our shoes.

We had to move when Tom came up to the dock.

All of the adults came off the boat and headed over to greet my parents, they already knew me.

The group had to disband for dinner and I headed into the house and sat down at the table, eating some pizza rolls.

My parents hadn't had very much time to get food so they picked up a few things to last us until the house was set up.

After I was done I walked up to my room and picked up Blackie, my bass.

I played American idiot by Green Day along with a few of the songs I wrote.

It was dark by the time I was done.

I headed up to the roof deck and watched the city lights in the distance.

Around 10:00, I finally went inside and got into bed.
