Ambers's P.O.V

                 "Students take a seat while you wait for the bell to ring and remember to have a safe break" Mr.Trueblood was reminding us before we left. It's finally thanksgiving break and I couldn't be more happier than ever I felt stuck at home. I was finally going to North Carolina to visit my family.

               We stopped talking for what seems to be a year and it really sucked. My cousin Karen and I were really close, but for some reason my mom really dislikes her. She would always tell me she was a bad influence and that she was a hoe. I would never guess where she got that from. My cousin was a great influence and for all I remember she's only been in 2 relationships. Once when she was in 5th and this one that she's been in since 7th. She's now a 9th grader so who knows what my mom was talking about.

              "So what are you doing over break?" My best friend Carmen snapped me out of my thoughts. "Oh umm just visiting my cousin Karen in North Carolina." She gave me a look "The one your mom doesn't like?" How did she know my mom didn't like her the only person who knew that was my family. "Wait.. How..." *Ringgggggggg*

              Damn bell before I could ask her anything she was out the door running to catch the bus. I just stood behind and watched as her long brown wavy hair bounced up and down. Carmen was a very beautiful girl. She had green eyes, a nice body, she was perfectly tan. She reminds me of those girls that you see in beach movies.

                 On the other hand I was a normal girl. I had blue eyes, long straight red hair. There was nothing really that special about me. "Amber come on!" I was too busy thinking I didn't see that my mom was here.

               "You need to stop being so distracted sweetie I've been waiting for almost 5 mins." My mom never yelled at me she would always tell me that yelling wouldn't help anything. "I'm sorry mom I was just thinking about the visit." I know that she's probably going to say something about my cousin. She really does hate her. "Amber it's not too late to back out. You don't have to go you can stay with us and we can go to Six Flags or Universal Studios." I hate when she does this so I decided just to stay quite the whole way home.

******** 

             Finally, we're home my mom kept trying to make small talk in the car. I love my mom it's just that I hate when she talks bad about Karen like that. Well I guess it's time for me to go pack up.

               I walked into my room's closet and looked for my 2 suitcases. I know I'm only going to be gone for 2 weeks but Karen is the type of girl that goes out everyday day and night. So if I wanted to spend time with her I had to get dressed alot. Last time I talked to her on the phone she was talking about going to some party tomorrow.

           After what seemed to me like an hour. I was finally done. I had checked the time it was barely 3:00 p.m. I guess I should tell my mom to take me to the airport my flight leaves in 15 mins and I don't want to be late. I headed down stairs to see my mom watching "Magic Mike". It's her favorite movie, I wonder why. "Mom do you mind taking me to the airport now?" She paused the movie and got up from the couch "Of course not let's go."

*********5 hours later**********

           I'm finally in North Carolina. God that plane ride was boring. "AMBER I MISSED YOU!!!!!" I felt someone lift me up into a hug. People need to stop doing that to me when I'm thinking. See that I'm thinking again. Snap out of it Amber. "I missed you too Karen! How have you been?" For some reason it felt awkward right now. I don't know if it was because people were staring at us. Or the fact that my ex is standing behind her. Before she could answer my question she was interrupted "Babe let's go your parents are going to be worried if we don't get there in a few." Babe? Was he referring to Karen? Since when have they been together? Why didn't she tell me?

*****15 mins after*****

        That was probably one of the awkwardest car rides ever. I'm still confused about my cousin going out with my ex. Who does that? Especially, who brings them to the airport to pick someone up? I'm kind of wondering if this is what my mom meant by her not liking her.

              I got my bags out the car and decided to just go inside. Either way by the time I got my last bag out they were eating eachother alive. It was just gross. I walked into the house. It was lonely I guess no one was home. I might as well take a shower and hit the sheets I'm really tired.

********

           Once I got out the shower I heard banging in my Karen's room. Before I could even check what it was I heard the words "It's too big. Go slower." Come out of her mouth. Was she really having sex right now. By now I wasn't so tired. I went downstairs and turned on the t.v. I turned off all the lights and put "Sinster" on. It was getting to a scary part right now. Ding-Dong. I literally fell to the floor.

             I turned on the lights and paused the movie. I opened the door to see a tall boy with very beautiful blue eyes.He was wearing a sweatshirt with the words Lacrosse Team written on it. I got to admit he was really cute. I started thinking and got snapped out of my thoughts "I came to pick up my friend. Josiah is he here?" I nodded my head and went upstairs to get him.

         By the time I got upstairs the door was open and they were getting dressed."You're friend is here to pick you up". They both look my direction. "Okay I'll be right there.Thanks" I walked back down stairs and notice that the lights were off again and that the movie was playing. "Sorry about that it's just that I really like this movie and I saw you were watching it. I didn't know if you were going to mind or not." The boy with the blue eyes was now looking at me. "It's okay and he said he'll be right down."

                  I sat down on the seat beside him. "I've never seen you here before. I would've recognized such a beautiful girl like you here." Great I'm probably blushing like an idiot by now. "I'm not from here I'm just visiting my family for thanksgiving break. I'm from California." He had paused the movie and turned his body towards mine. " I got a good look at him now. He looked very familiar. I then started to look into his eyes as he looked in mine. I felt him place one hand on my thigh and the other on my cheek. Are we about to kiss? I think so because I felt his and mine's body moving closer to eachother. I felt the blood rush to my cheeks as the space between us grew smaller. I'm about to kiss a stranger what am I doing? "Come on bro I'm ready." At this point I hated Josiah. For some reason I wanted to kiss the boy with the blue eyes. Though, he had to come down right now. Maybe it's a sign. I waved them goodbye and saw as he gave me a smile. Everything about his looks were perfect. His enchanting blue eyes that I can't get out of my head his smile just everything.

                I heard footsteps coming down the hall "Would you like some food Amber I'm pretty sure you're starving." Oh good it was just Karen. Maybe I should go ask her about Josiah and her. "Sure, I'll be right there." I headed for the kitchen to see that she was waiting for me. "Karen, can I ask you something." For a second I was debating if I should still ask her because she sure didn't say anything. "Sure what is it?" Here goes nothing. "How come you didn't tell me about Josiah and you?" She stopped eating and looked up at me "I did I told you that I was with a boy for 2 years and still going." It had clicked in my mind that she took him away from me. See Josiah and I dated in the beginning of 7th grade when I lived here. Once my family moved though we tried to keep a long distance relationship. After a month or so he told me he had been seeing another girl and we ended up breaking up. "Oh." Was all that I managed to let out. I finished my food and headed up stairs and into bed. I wasn't quite tired so I decided to read my favorite fanfic "After". I read a chapter and fell asleep.
