The Unforgotten

Waves

I quickly decide I am taking him to the cave. "Today you only have half your classes so we have two hours, don't wore bout the crazy times you get use to it." I smile as the bell rings letting us know our daily 15 minute home room is up.
"Okay, so where are we going," he asks as we walk out to meet the group.
"It's a surprise," I smirk and run up to Marley telling her the plan. I look over to see all the guys talking.
" Do you guys know where we are going?" Derek asks Mason and Justin.
"Yep, but you are just going to have to wait and see," Mason smiles and we all laugh at Derek's confused look. We make our way out to my truck cause all these loser where running late cause Justin's car was broken down. We eat in and I excitedly start driving towards the beach. In the corner of my eye I see Marley turn on the radio and "Don't Stop Believing" comes on. A joyful grin creeps onto my face and I start singing along.
"Street lights, people, living just to find emotion hiding somewhere in the night!" I belt out the lyrics with Marley doing the same beside me as we speed down the road. I start to slow down when I see the little turn, as I start turning Derek speaks up.
"So we are going off-roading?" He questions and I just shake my head with a giggle continuing down the trail. Once we get at back in the tress I see our hut. It is really just a small abandon hit we found years ago but we cleaned it up and now it's our favorite hang out. The hut is right next to the waterfall which falls into a beautiful pond which has a tiny channel of water leading to the ocean which is about ten feet away. No one but us really knows about it here which is a shame because it has the best surfing waves. I put the truck in park and happily get out running with Marley towards the hut. We glance back and see the guys slowly making there way down.
"Don't come in we are changing," Marly screams closing the door. I her a faint we know as I go to pick out a swimsuit. I always stash about three swimsuits and two boards here so I can come whenever. I finally pick out my plain black bikini that shows of my tan. I turn around to see Marley wearing a dark blue one.
"You look hot! Who are you trying to impress?" She snickers. Derek. No Alana no you have to focus on school and surfing, nothing else. I silently argue with myself and for a minute the non-liker of Derek wins.
"You," I smirk and blow her a kiss before we go grab our boards from the back. Once Marley and I have everything ready we start running to the waves. If you ever see me running as fast as I do when there is a wave, and there is no water around, you better start running to cause something is not right. We jump into the water instantly feeling refreshed. This is home, this is where my heart belongs. We take our time paddling out and making small talk. As I half listen to what Marley is telling me I graze my hand over the surface of the water making me feel intrigued. How can something be so perfect? Marley grabs my attention and I look back to see the guys throwing a football around the shore. I catch Mason's eye and they all turn to wave.

What did you guys think about this section?
I am currently procrastinating on studying for my two test tomorrow but whatever right I will probably fail anyway cause everyone knows the teachers never put what we actually learn on the test.
Thank you for reading!
