Laguna Beach... It was so strange to come back to the place that I used to call my home. I felt like living here happened in another life. It hadn't changed that much, but I had. Spending 7 years of my life around filthy rich people that were really superficial had completely changed me and my life. All my friends were fake though, because after my dad had to declare bankruptcy, none of our families friends wanted to be associated with us any longer and certainly none of them wanted to help us out. That's why we had to return to Laguna beach. I guess we were lucky that my dad never sold the house, so we moved back here.

Transferring to a new school in the middle of the semester was hell. Everyone already knew their place and who was their friend. I had to do a lot of catching up and actually prove myself, because the coach told me that the teams were already formed, so becoming part of the football team would be a challenge.
I had maths and German before the tryout. Luckily I had a major advantage, because the private school I went to in LA was actually pretty good. I would probably be able to graduate already, but my parents wanted me to finish Highschool.
The classes went by quickly and I met a lot of people who I used to be friends with in middle school.
Of course I made it into the team. I was trained by the best back in LA. Back in the locker room I showered and sat in front of my locker wearing a towel around my hips. I listened to the conversation and occasionally joined in. Some of the guys actually kind of flirted with me and I had no idea how to react to that. Especially a guy named Henry, who was also just wearing a towel, which exposed his muscly body. The towel hung pretty low on his hips. My eyes traveled down. 'WHOAH THERE. I need to stop. ' My eyes quickly shot back up to his face, only to catch his eyes and witness his smirk.
I tried to concentrate on the conversation which really didn't work out because my mind was a complete blur.

Until I heard his name.
Kane.
I couldn't really hear the rest of the conversation because I was thinking of him. Where was he now? Was he still in Laguna Beach? Has he changed at all, or was he still the stubborn boy that he had been 7 years before?
All of my questions would be answered very soon.
