"GO AWAY" I scream at my phone alarm going off.

I rolled over, opened my eyes and stretched my body.

I sleepily climbed out of bed and stripped out of my clothes from yesterday, throwing them in random directions around the room. I walked almost zombie like into the bathroom, running the shower, not even bothering to wait until the shower got warm I hopped in.

The water felt like ice hitting my skin. I am definitely awake now. I just stood in the shower for a good twenty minutes, hearing my phone alarm go off for the second time I quickly washed my body and got out of the shower wrapping a towel around me.

Oh shit it wasn't my alarm it was Sarah trying to ring me. I check the time, it's only 9:30am I still have half an hour. I decided to call her back just incase she had to cancel.

"Hey, sorry I was just in the shower" I apologise for missing her call.

"You nearly ready?" She asked sounding like she had been awake for hours.

"I just have to get dressed" I reply yawning.

"I'm five minutes away" she informs me.

"Okay, can we at least stop in somewhere for brekky? I'm starving" I ask.

"Sure, I'll see you in five" she said hanging up the phone.

I rummaged through my clothes, pulling out a grey bra and matching undies. Dropping my towel I slipped them on as quickly as I could before continuing the search for something comfortable yet decent to wear. Perfect I thought pulling out a pink floral skin tight tank top and a pair of black high waisted denim shorts. Putting my clothes on before looking to where I had kicked my shoes last night.

"Aha" I say out loud slipping on my shoes. I grab my bag, keys and phone before running out the door.

By the time I had made it down the stairs Sarah was just pulling up.

"Hey" I say happily opening the passengers door.

"You look good" she said, looking me up and down smiling.

"So do you" I reply.

She looked amazing in her black skin tight short skirt and yellow tank top, honestly this girl would still look good even if she was wearing a potato sack. I can't help but laugh at the thought of her in the potato sack.

"What's so funny" she questioned curiously.

"Oh it's nothing" I smile trying to compose myself.

"Hmm, how does McDonalds sound?" She asked me.

"Sounds good" I smiled staring at her.

A few moments later we were pulling into McDonalds. We ordered and paid for our meals. We drove up to the next window. we didn't have to wait too long  before we received our meals.

We drove to a nearby park to eat. Sitting at the bench talked and laughed until we had finished eating.

"Let's go" she said ever so sweetly.

I picked up our rubbish and threw it in a nearby bin before retreating to her car.

We drove for about an hour before pulling into a car park by the beach.

"I didn't bring swimmers" I told her.

"We aren't here for swimming there is a band playing here, I thought it could be fun" she smiled.

We got out of the car and walked towards the sand. The stage was already set up and the band was rehearsing.

"Oh my god, I know those people" I say pointing to a couple of the boys on stage.

"Let's go say hi" she smiled grabbing my hand.

"Ben, John" I shouted so they could hear me over their instruments.

"Taylor" they say in unison.

I dragged Sarah up onto the stage.

"This is Sarah" I say hugging each of them.

"Hi Sarah" they each say shaking her hand.

"We will let you get back to rehearsing" I tell them, before turning and leaving the stage.

By this time there were quite a few people turning up so we decided to steal up a spot on the grassy hill near the stage.

Once the show had ended everybody began to leave.

"Wanna go get lunch?" I ask, helping her off the ground.

"Sure, I'm starving" she smiled.

We walked a cross the road to a little take away store. I ordered some fish and chips and waited outside. Ten minutes later our order was called.

We walked back over to the grassy hill we had previously sat at and we ate our lunch.

We sat in the same spot for hours talking about random things. Laughing, getting to know each other, smiling. We talked as if we were both lovers and best friends, which was kind of weird considering we only met like three days ago.

"The sun is setting" she smiled pointing to the sky which had already become a beautiful pink colour.

I rested my head on her shoulder, feeling completely comfortable, fingers intertwined we sat completely silent as we watched as the sun set in the sky turning it from a beautiful pink to a deep purple. The stars began to show.

"Time to go it's getting cold" she said brushing her lips against mine.

I felt my cheeks turn pink in that very moment.

"Sorry" she said looking at my cheeks.

"Don't be" I say kissing her back.

She stood up and grabbed my hand to help me up.

"Shall we" she laughed gesturing for me to enter the car.

The hour trip home seemed to fly by as we chatted about random things.

"So what do you want to do tomorrow?" She asked.

"Well I wouldn't mind going to check out an art gallary" I told her.

I have a passion for art, I'm great at it but that's not the reason I loved it. I loved it because one piece of art can be interpreted in many different ways. It's also a way one can express themselves, and I really mean like pour their heart and soul, hopes and dreams and all of their memories into a piece of art.

"Sounds great, I love art" she smiled.

"So 11am okay?" I smile.

"Fantastic" she replied.

"I'll see you tomorrow" I said leaning towards her and pecking her lips.

"Bye" she whispered.

I walked to the door of the hotel and waved to her once more before entering. I made my way up to my room. I pushed the door open and stepped inside locking it behind me. I kicked off my shoes pulled my phone out of my bag and putting it on charge before putting my bag on the bed.

I ran the shower making sure the water was warm I stripped out of my clothes and stepped into the shower. Allowing the water to pelt at my back and I washed my body. I rinsed off and stepped out immediately wrapping the towel around my wet body.

I left the bathroom and dug through my clothes pulling out a yellow sports bra, pair of underwear and a pair of pyjama shorts.

I finished drying my body before slipping my clothes on. Once dressed I grabbed my phone and flopped down on the bed.

Sarah sent me a message. Tonight was fun, I would love to stay up and chat but I am beat. Goodnight I'll see you tomorrow.

It was and me too. Sweet dreams I'll see you later. I replied.

I put my phone back onto charge once again flopping down on the bed I closed my eyes and almost immediately fell asleep.
