Caitlyn's POV

"What do you mean?" Savannah asked.

"We are targets!" I shouted with tears in my eyes.

"Damn." Savannah spoke calmly.

"Savannah!!!" I shouted, panicky.

 "Sorry. What are we gonna do?" she said unconcerned.

"I don't know." I said pacing.

"Caitlyn, I think you are overreacting, what if it's a misunderstanding." Savannah said.

"Yeah I guess you're right." I calmed down.

"I will call Jacob right now and clear everything up." Savannah pulled out her phone and called Jacob. It was midnight.

Wait, that meant it was the next day. My eighteenth birthday to be exact.

"He said he is gonna tell you over video chat." Savannah said.

She pulled out her laptop and sent a chat to Jacob. Jacob's face popped up and he began to speak. "Caity, I just wanted to tell you that..." he paused. "YOU'VE BEEN BIRTHDAY PUNK'D!"Savannah, Jacob, and his football friends shouted in unison and cheered.

"You little shits!" I stopped and face-palmed myself. 

Jacob, Savannah, and Jacob's friends sang Happy Birthday. I blushed and covered my face. I smiled at the train wreck of off-key singing that was coming from their mouths. I giggled and pushed Savannah playfully.

"I hate you!" I laughed.

"I'm sorry Caity but that was an awesome birthday prank!" Savannah fist-pumped.

"Love you Caitlyn." Jacob and his friends shouted. I just laughed.

"Hey, my girlfriend has been going crazy about you meeting Jonah Creed." Steven, one of Jacob's friends, said. 

"Wait, how does she know I met Jonah?" I asked.

Savannah has been posting and texting all about it." Steven answered.

"Savannah!" I gave her our "look".

"Sorry." she frowned.

"Well, we are gonna go, Happy Birthday, Caity." Jacob winked.

I smiled as he clicked off. Savannah had her signature huge grin on her face.

Today, I will try my best to be happy. Savannah handed me a small wrapped box.

"What's this?" I looked down at the present in my hand.

"A birthday present." she smiled.

"You already got me a present." I said holding up the tickets.

"This it the real present." Savannah pointed to the box.

I slowly unwrapped the box and opened it. I pulled out a silver friendship necklace with a guitar pick hanging from it. I looked up to see Savannah pull on a similar necklace.

"Thank you so much." I hugged Savannah.

"No problem, Happy Birthday." Savannah spoke. 

I looked at the clock. 2:07 AM.

"Hey, can we get some sleep so we can enjoy our last night here." I laughed, laying down.

"Alright." Savvy huffed, laying down also.

Jonah's POV

I slept in till 9:00 AM because I was so worn out. It was unlike my brothers to still be sleeping. I threw on some clothes and grabbed my surfboard. I got into my car and started on my way for Santa Monica.

 I finally arrived at the beach and changed into my swimsuit and wetsuit. I picked up my board and walked on the shore looking for some good waves. I spotted some nice swells and walked into the ocean. The freezing cold water shot shivers through my body. I was always told I had salt water in my veins. I have always loved surfing. 

 I sat on my board waiting for the perfect wave.

"Ah, there it is." I said to myself as I located a nice one.

I paddled towards it and stood up at the right time. I shot like a rocket but felt at peace. As I was smiling, riding this wave, I got lost in a day dream.

There was Caitlyn, the girl who went to my concert, who was at the pizza place, and who Jake and I ran into at the pier. I realized i'd ran into her a lot lately. Did I like her? In the process of my day dream thoughts, I managed to lose my balance. I knew I was going down. *SPLASH* In I went. I was caught off guard and watched as I hit the bottom of the ocean. I popped back up and gasped for air. I grabbed my board and dragged myself onto the beach.

I flopped on the shore, exhausted. I've been so drained lately. I laid down and closed my eyes. I opened my eyes after a thinking session and knew what I had to do. I grabbed my stuff and took off towards home.

Today my questions will be answered.
