A Writer's Bucket List

Off to San Fran !

Auriel's POV

"Hey babe, I need to waz. It's hotter than hell, you want me to bring you cold water on my way back?" I asked Niks.

"Yeah, hurry. If you get lost call me! Or text but time stamp, you know how the messages get delayed."

I walked around Blue. I borrowed Nik's Chucks because I just couldn't take another minute in those platforms. I didn't even care anymore how hot my legs looked in them, I was worried about my toes. The last tents were being put away now and the beautiful land of Coachella looked dread full. It was so littered and all the hippie decorations were put away for next year. The only place that was still annoyingly full was the potty area. The lines were ridiculous. Why couldn't I be a man? I could be peeing in a stupid Gatorade bottle.

I picked up a couple water bottles from the vending machines near the porta potties. Walking back I couldn't help but think to myself how unforgettable this experience was. A smile crept on my face. Starting with those two guys. Dear Buddha they were hot. Matt and Floyd. Matt. "Why that smile?" I looked up. Speak of the devil. "Hi." I said. This guy made it so fucking hard to play cool! I hate him.

"Are you leaving already?" he inquired stopping.

"Yea. I was just getting water for the road." I answered.

"Where you guys heddin'?" He had an accent. I couldn't quite pin point. It was kind of attractive.

"To San Fran," I announced. looking up at him. The sun was blinding.

"Are you serious? We're from San Francisco too! We're actually heading back today. What part are you guys from? I know every inch! How have we never met? Are you guys like outcasts?" he flashed a smile.

"No! I'm totally social. We're not from San Francisco. We're from LA."

"Family?"

"No, we're roadtripping!" I gushed. I was smiling from ear to ear. Have no idea why but I was. He chuckled. He was sweaty. Looking closer i could see his hair wasn't naturally straight. His roots were getting curly. I really liked the way he slicked it back, it really emphasized his strong jaw. He took off his dark shades and cleaned them. "If you guys don't have a place to stay call me?" He extended his arm to me. I looked at him not realizing what he wanted, so I shook his hand. He laughed this time. "You hella funny. Alright. How bout I take out my phone, and you take out yours, and we quick trade?"

"Oh, I totally new that's what you wanted. " We unlocked our phones and switched. I finished before him and i snuck a look at him. His eyes were beautiful. He had curly dark lashes, and light green eyes.

"Aight. See you round Frisco." It wasn't an accent. He was just really urban. Must be from smack in the middle of Bay Area.

...

Niks kept bugging about why I came in smiling. "OMFG did you have like a quickie or something you dirty! That's why you were all red and had that stupid face huh!"

"What the fuck Nicole! NO! It's hot as hell out there and you expect me to walk back looking cool and pale?"

"Yaaaas." she was cracking up now. Her hand was hanging out the window. I hate it when she does that. I feel like some random car is going to rip it off.

"No. Stop. I saw Matt. That's it. And put your arm in the car. That shit makes me nervous."

"My hands are sweaty. It's okay, I have sun block on."

...

Nicole's POV

Aur was falling asleep already and we were only three hours into the ride. I stepped on the breaks and she jolted up. "BITCH" she socked me.

"Talk to me I'm bored."

"You wont be bored in Frisco baby!" she giggled.

"Since when do you talk like that?" I teased.

"Uh, since 4 hours ago." Aur retorted.

"Look for a cheap motel in the Bay Area."

"Already on it."

...

Aur's POV

I texted Matt. I'll take you up on that offer. Exactly four minutes after my phone buzzed. It was an alert for sales at Victoria's Secret. I went on to google motels. A message popped up on the top of my screen. What the hell? Yall are in Frisco already?

no. Nik told me to look for a motel. i thought she might like to save on $$.

ahhh. i was about to say, these girls don't mess around. you can crash at our place.

WHAT?! no! I thought you ment like you can recomnd a motel or somthin. Nvm haa (x

We're not some type of pimp serial killers. CHILL. You can take the room or living room. If you don't feel comfy with us there. As sexy as we are. Then we'll crash at my momma's. No worries.

Haaaa. That's cuteeee. Okay. Fine. Is Moody over there fine with it?

No one cares what he thinks. If I say something he does it. (;

Okay totally. Text you when we're in San Fran.

"Why you smiling again" jeered Nik.

"Something on Instagram" I said.

...

Matt's POV

"Yo Woodstock" I put my hand on Floyd's shoulder.

"What up"

"So. Some chicks are gonna crash at our place. Just for tonight."

"Are you telling me or asking me?" he looked at me, his eyebrow raised.

"I'm letting you know bro," I stated.

"Hey man they better not be like those annoying ass thots you invited last time. Even the thought of Madelyn is more bearable" he sneered. Damn I hate that girl. She hurt him bad.

"Madelyn who? Nah, they're chill as fuck. You'll bear through." I joked.

"Let's get some motherfucking fries dude. Your ass doesn't feed me. My mom let me come because you promised her you'd take care of me. You failed her. Im suffering from malnutrition." He nagged while he pulled into the next Mc Dee's drive through.

"Lets eat inside, they have AC and I need a stretch". Floyd nodded. Half way through a big mac I brought up his feelings.

"Stop with that pussy shit. I'm good I told you." He faked a smile and shoved fries in his mouth.

"C'mon man. You weren't like this. You were the one always cracking jokes. I was the brooding one. Didn't your hippie mom teach you to meditate or some shit?" I groaned.

"Drop it. I'm fine. Who are these girls coming over?" his attitude changed into curiosity. I smiled.

"Drop it." I mocked.

"ASS" he laughed.
