I grunted and threw my covers away as my phone beeped continuously.

*hey you*

*wanna tag along to the beach?*

*Conor wants to meet me there*

*Tracey's coming*

typing..

Jeez,someone needs to calm down. Mia gets so unusually excited everytime Conor wants to hangout with her maybe cause half of the time,Conor is always so damn busy with school work and every time he squeezes a little time out of his schedule to have a date with Mia, It's always a huge blessing.

*okay.* I reply.

*Tracey's bringing her car,we're coming to pick you up in the next few minutes.*

I nodded like she could actually see me from wherever she was at the moment.

What better way can you start your weekend rather than going to the beach?

I hummed and walked straight to the bathroom.

*************************************************************

Mia was the first to drop off from Tracey's Ford,She immediately spotted Conor who started walking towards us too,he was shirtless with a green shorts that had floral patterns on it,He was looking good as always.

"Hey Girls" He waved at us, wrapping his arm over Mia's shoulder. Tracey and I waved back.

"See you around." Mia said as they walked off together.

"Cute." Tracey commented. We took our umbrellas and our mats from her booth and started making our way to the beach too.

The beach was my favourite place to be because of it's breathtaking beauty. It had fantastic views and trees that could give you a precious shade.

After setting our umbrellas on the sand and spreading out our mats,Tracey was soon scrolling her Instagram page and I went closer to the ocean.

I removed the bun I used to park my hair and let the air from the ocean blow my hair wildly,It was so peaceful. I wished my life was this way. The sapphire lake was so clear that you could see the depth at which the sunlight was penetrating into it. The sunset here also brings out it's colours in an explosion of platinum and orange. And at dusk,the cliffs turn purple and blue.

Everything was pure art.

By merely standing on this sandy ground and turning in a circle,you can see more natural wonders in a second than you will ever see pretty much anywhere else just that after doing that, I noticed something strange.

The boy ran towards me happily. What was his name again? Something that reminded you of a Teddy Bear?

Ted?

"Ted?"

"Hii" He grinned, reflecting a set of tiny teeths and some that haven't grown yet or probably removed.

"Oh Hey." I bent to face him. "Are you here alone? Who are you with?"

"Me." The voice was so deep and calm yet it had a little bit of irritation and anger with it. I looked up and met Harold's green eyes. He had a ear ring worn in his left ear,He was wearing a shirt with loosened buttons and I could notice a tattoo of his name neatly inscribed below his nipple.

About the same time,Ted also pointed at him.

"Oh,I see." I tried to retort with the same irritation in my voice. "See you later,Ted" I smiled and got up.
