SKINNY DIP TILL THE SUN COMES UP

1.

Easton English.

"Morning East" my sister Ella says as she enters our kitchen. She just woke up and she's still wearing her pajamas, she loos pretty hungover from the party she had last night.

"Hey Ella" I reply before taking a sip of my cold coffee. I am a huge coffee lover to be honest but cold coffee is the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted, so I throw the rest of my coffee in the sink.

It's saturday which means our parents are working so Ella and I are home alone today and we finally got permission to throw a house party (!!!). It's open invite and basically the whole town will be there. It'll be awesome.

"Good party last night?" I ask her. 

Ella nods while putting a slice of bread in our toaster. "Some kids got really drunk and got into a fight, it was really funny honestly". 

"You are the only cruel bitch I know that would find people fighting funny" I say jokingly.

"Quit trying to be a smart ass when you're just an ass" Ella says 

"Ha ha you're so funny El" I say 

"I know I am" Ella says, when her toast jumps out of the toaster she (literally) throws it on a plate and puts some butter and jam on it.

"You know that was a joke right..." I say smirking before adding "You didn't invite that assclown to our party did you?"

Assclown, aka Jonathan Henry, aka Ella's boyfriend. I don't just hate him because he's my sisters boyfriend, I hate him for him. He's the biggest douche I've ever met. 

Ella gives me the finger before leaving the kitchen with her toast to eat it upstairs in her room.

Our mom would've disproved of her not eating her breakfast at the breakfast table, our mom is a strict believer that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and that you should eat it with your family at a table, but that's total bullshit.

To be honest we're a pretty traditional American family, our dad Mason was the quarterback who married one of the cheerleaders, our mom Piper. Now they both work at the local hospital our dad as a surgeon and our mom as a nurse. Nine months after they got married they had twins (me and Ella!) and moved into a house in the suburbs. Pretty basic huh.

Georgie Lee Garcia.

Let me give you a quick description of how car rides go with the Garcia family; I, Georgie the innocent sweet youngest sister sits in the middle of the backseat, on my right sits my second oldest brother Zig (short for Zigmund) and he's yelling at my other older brother Luca who sits on my left, either those two fight or they make gross jokes, it doesn't matter what or how but those two always yell and it's not just like that in the car, it's also like that at our house, outside, at school, at the grocery store, basically everywhere they go. My dad Ren (short for Lorenzo) drives while singing some crappy old rock song ignoring his sons and my oldest brother Cypress sits in the passenger seat next to him trying to stop the chaos behind him. It goes like this every single fucking ride and it drives me crazy.

If today's car ride would've been to my aunts house on the other side of town this wouldn't have been so bad but no, today's car ride is a full 23 hours from Texas to California.

"Shut up Luca you don't know shit!" Zig shouts in my ear.

Luca thinks Zig had sex with Lara, Lara is probably the ugliest girl I've ever seen but that doesn't matter. Zig keeps saying that he didn't but of course Luca doesn't believe him, so they're fighting once again.

"Oh I know shit! You totally fucked her!" Luca shouts back.

Instead of telling his son not to swear my dad laughs loudly before continuing his song. My dad is the worst singer I've ever met, his singing gives me serious headaches.

"Why would I fuck her? She looks like a pig!" Zig shouts again.

"Everyone knows you had sex with her at Jonahs party" Luca laughs.

"Luca leave him alone maybe Zig likes pigs" Cypress interrupts.

Luca and Cypress laugh together.

"Dad how much longer?" I ask annoyed by my brothers who act like toddlers.

"Uhm about 10 hours... maybe 11" dad answers. Fuck.

So you might wonder why I am stuck with that 23 hour car ride to California, the answer is really simple. We are leaving all of our friends and family behind to move to Ferndale. Simply because my dad grew sick of Texas and thought it was time to move to a different state.

I really really really wish my dad could just realize that I'm in high school and that I would have to make new friends and all that but no, he didn't think of that at all. And for my brothers it's much easier since they don't have to switch schools, after summer they will all go back to their colleges.

Hey guys! This is the first chapter of Skinny Dip Till The Sun Comes Up! I hope you like it x

So in the first few chapters I'll be switching viewpoints a lot so you'll get to know the main characters. Sorry if it's confusing. Later the story will mostly be in Georgies viewpoint.
