My friends and I are on our way to America for a girls holiday away. We're on the plane getting ready for a hours and hours plane journey to L.A. We're going for 2 weeks and it's all of our first time being out of Europe so we're really eager to travel some where new.
We arrive in the L.A airport hours later at 11 in the morning so we have the whole day. We see a man holding a sign saying 'Carroll' which is your friends surname. We follow him out and he leads us to a little limo that we all chipped in and he drove us to our hotel. We sat in the back drinking champagne and music up full blast.
We arrive at our hotel and we take out our bags. We enter the hotel and walk over to the reception to sign in. There are 2 rooms booked between the 5 of us so there's 3 staying together and 2 together. Anna, Holly and I are together and Hazel and Lisa are together. This hotel is 5 star so we got really good rooms with an amazing view and pool area.

Once we settle in, we get ready and head for the beach. The beach was literally across the road so we just had to walk over. Once we found a spot to sit, we put our towels down and put ours stuff away. I see that there are surfboards for rent and I surf so I wanted to rent one. "Hey they're renting surfboards want to get one?" "Nah y/n I'm okay". Neither of my friends want to surf so I just go over and get one. I have the surfboard under my arm and I walk towards the sea. "See you in a bit" "See ya".
Once I get out far enough, I lay my body onto the surfboard. I lay there for a few minutes letting the cold waves hit me. I paddle out a bit more and I see a good few waves coming. I turn back around getting ready for them. I get on my knees and then my feet. The waves hit the board and I start to move along with the waves. I see a few people watching me on the beach and I also see a few other surfers watch me.
It's nearly 4 o clock so the waves are picking up a bit. "Hey" a surfer says to me. "Hey" I say back. "I'm Grayson" "I'm y/n" "You're brilliant at surfing my friends and I were watching you a bit s-sorry that sounds weird". I giggle at his awkwardness. "No it's okay really and thank you I've been surfing since I was 13" "Cool where are you from?" "Ireland you?" "I'm from New Jersey but I moved here with my twin brother Ethan" "Oh cool" "Watch there's a huge one there". I look ahead of us and I see a big wave. "Want to do this one together?" he asks. "Yeah sure". We prepare ourselves and start swimming. We stand up and the wave hits our boards. It's a huge one where it turns in so I go out of it at one end, followed by Grayson. "Wow that was amazing" "It sure was" "I better get going my friends are over there sunbathing and we have to go back to our apartment" "Oh okay sure".
