Hazel's POV:

Kaleb pulled me inside and slammed the front door. He looked me right in the eyes and yelled "why would you ever kiss someone like HIM?

"What do you mean 'someone like him'? I know you don't see it, but he's a great guy!" I explained.

"No. There's something off about that guy. You need to stay away from him."

"I'm not staying away from Nash just because my stupid, over protective brother told me to! I really like him!" I yelled to Kaleb and storm upstairs to my room. I sat on the end of my bed and my thoughts went wild. My brother can make me so mad sometimes. He is always trying to run my life and I'm tired of it! Sometimes I wish he would learn to mind his own business but I know that's never going to happen. I eventually fell asleep deep into my thoughts.

The next morning I woke up and looks at my clock to see the time. 9:54 am. I walked into the bathroom to take a shower and do my makeup. Once I was finished getting ready I walked downstairs. My dad was already cooking breakfast. When I walked into the kitchen he turned around and said, "good morning Hazel! the bacon and pancakes are almost ready. You can sit down at the table if you want."

Right when I was about to sit down the doorbell rang. I decided to get it since my dad was cooking and everyone else was still sleeping.

I opened the door and there was Nash standing right before me.

"Uhh," he said and finally came back from his thoughts after a couple seconds and continued with " I knew I couldn't text or call you since you don't have a phone so I decided to walk over here and ask you in person." then he paused.

"Ask me what?" I asked trying to hide my excitement.

"Well, some friends and I are going to an amusement park today and I was wondering if you wanted to come."

"I would love to! what time are going?"

"Around 12:30." nash replied.

"Okay. See you then!" I said bye and closed the door. After I closed the door I turned around and there was Kaleb. I could tell he was angry with me but I ignored him and just walked straight into the kitchen to get some breakfast.

As soon as my breakfast had vanished and I was escudos from the table, I ran up to my room. I rushed to my closet and pulled out one shirt after another.

I finally found the perfect shirt, a blue and pink striped shirt with a chest pocket (frocket 😂). The sleeves came down to my elbows, but it's light and flowyi which will keep me cool. I decide to match my shirt with a pair of while vans. I throw my hair up into a ponytail, so my hair won't fly into my face while we're on a ride. Once I'm dressed I tell my dad, and he approves, just as long as someone I was with had a phone. I assured him there was a person with a phone. I grabbed some money and walked over to Nash's house.

I tapped on the door and stood back and waited. It was still 11:40 when I left the house. I figured coming early was a good idea, but now I wasn't sure. What if Nash tells me it's too early and he wants me to not come at all? what if he tells me to go home until 12:30? that would be so embarrassing! I was about to rush off back to my house, but the door opened. It was hayes. "Hey." he says.

"Hi. Uh, is Nash here?" I ask feeling queasy.

"Yeah." he says looking me up and down. "Nash! Hazel is here!" Hayes calls into the house.

Nash runs down the stairs and walks to the door. Hayes shrugs and walks off. "Hey." he says smiling.

I ease up and say, "hey, sorry I came early. I hope you don't mind."

"Oh yeah, it's fine, actually it's perfect." He says grabbing my hand and leading me into his kitchen.

A man, who is probably his father, a woman, who is probably his mother, skylynn, and will all stand in the kitchen, each occupied with something. They all turn to look at us.

"Hazel, this is my stepdad and mom, and you've already met Skylynn and Will." Nash says casually.

"Yep. So how is everyone doing this morning?" I said, trying to sound enthusiastic.

"Great!" said Skylynn.

"Fine." said Will.

"Good." Said Nash's stepdad.

"Doing fine!" said Nash's mother.

"Perfect, now that you're here." Nash said as he grabbed my hips and kissed my cheek.

"NASH! Four year old in the room!" yelled Skylynn.

"She's right." Says Nash's mother.

How can these people be so calm and nice? they're practically perfect! I looked at the clock above the stove. It read 12:12. Nash had been looking at the time also.

Someone knocked on the door.

"I got it!" yelled Skylynn.

she ran over to the door and threw it open.

"Nash! Cam,Matt, Taylor, and Aaron are here!" she yelled from the door.

Nash left the kitchen and strode to the door. I followed him wondering who Aaron and Taylor were.

"Heyyy." said Nash jokingly, "Come on in."

They all came in and Cam said hi to Nash's family.

"hello Cam." they called back down the hallway.

"Hey guys, this is Hazel, Matt and Cam you already know from the cookout." Nash said smiling. "Hazel, this is Aaron and Taylor." Nash said pointing them out as he said their names.

"Hello." I said giving them an awkward wave.

"hey." Taylor said flipping his hair.

"Hello." Aaron said.

"so, Nash... which park are we going to?" i said, trying no to start an awkward silece.

"The one and only... Six Flags!" Nas said, with major enthusiasm.

I started to freak out. Back in Idaho, we didn't go to parks or big city events, we were kind of a stay-at-home famiy. But now, we - or at least I - were a party family.

When Nash, me, and the guys got to Six Flags, it was exactly like the cookout, but more girls.
