The Start of Something New

Summer Vacation

We ordered our food and found our way to our seats. After about 10-15 minutes the lady brought us our food. I stared out the window at a couple holding hands and laughing at each others jokes.

Kian noticed me and said "I used to love someone that much."

"What happened?" I asked.

"She uh sh-she died." He stated.

"Oh my god what happened? What's her name?" I looked back at Kian who was still staring out the window.

"Her name was Alyssa and a plane crash. She was on her way back from Ohio and my mom was watching the news and turns out it was her plane." He exclaimed.

"Kian I'm so sorry." I felt bad.

"To lose someone who you are deeply in love with is devastating. I would never really know what it feels like. A lot of people hate me and most of them I don't even know. I just feel like everyone is against me. Sometimes even Jamie." I added.

"Well you are kind of a sociopath." He laughed at me.

I threw a fry at his face.

"You're a douche!" I said.

"Thanks! My face was missing the salt." He joked.

"Whatever." I took a sip of my drink.

"But I don't hate you." He spun a fry around in his hand and glanced up at me.

"You haven't gotten to know me much yet." I looked back out the window.

"If I'm still talking to you then you can't possibly be that bad." He pronounced.

I looked at him and smiled.

"Whats your favorite color?" I changed the subject.

"Red."

"What about you?" He retorted the question.

"Green."

"Hey we make christmas! Thats my favorite holiday!" He smiled.

"Me too!" I beamed.

Turned out we had more in common so far than I thought. We finished up eating and got our things and started walking towards the car.

"You did let them know right?" I asked Kian.

"Yeah about an hour and a half or so ago."

"Ok just checking." I responded.

We didn't talk much on the way home just small gestures and laughs here and there.

We pulled into my driveway and he walked to his house and I walked to mine. I looked back at him and he did the same. I smiled and turned back around and kept walking.

"Avery?!" Jamie shouted when I opened the door.

"Yup." I shouted back.

"Did you get my stuff?" I interrogated her to make sure she got everything.

"Avery! I got it all." She finally said.

"Sorry just making sure. On our way lets stop at WalMart or something and pick up tons of food to last a couple weeks." I suggested.

She nodded.

We grabbed our dozens of bags and packed it in the car.

"Guess who?!" Someone covered my eyes.

"Kian?"

"No." He let go and I turned around.

"Its Jc." He laughed.
