That Summer

Chapter 1

"It's just me, you, and a pen. There's nothing to be afraid of!" I say frustrated, while looking at the essay perfectly aligned in front of me." Ugh!!! Lily, just write the stupid essay!" I say again while trying to focus. I ran my fingers through my long, brown hair." What would he think if he saw you talking to yourself..." I stopped a second to imagine what Jacob would say." He would say something like, 'She really is going crazy', or maybe,' This women needs to be put in a mental institution'." I say to myself releasing a small laugh.

Then relizing how crazy I sound,  I say in almost a whisper," Maybe I am...." My phone then starts to go off playing my WDW ring-tone. I then picking it up, to see who could possibly be calling at such a time. When I see the caller ID I almost threw my phone across the room, but instead I lost grip and dropped it on the floor. I quickly picked it up and pushed the green button which allowed us to speak." H-hey Jacob. W-what's up?" I manage to say, smooth Lily, real smooth. I think while face palming.

"Hey. I just wanted to know if...", he stopped a second. My imagination running wild. Is going to ask about me? I really want him to say something about me. His voice brings me back in to reality,"Your brother is home?" I let out an disappointed sigh."Yeah, he's in his room." I say before hanging up.

Not long after, I hear a knock at the front door already knowing who it was,  I yell,"Come in!"
Jacob comes in,  and yells for my big brother Alan to come downstairs. Alan comes down with a wide grin on his face, in which Jacob returns. They both say at the the same time," Bro!" They do their weird "handshake thingy", then the both face me. I start to get uncomfortable and yell,"What are you two turtle's looking at?!?" I say throwing a kitchen towel at my brother.

"Well... I wanted to know if you would cover for me, while me and Jacob go to Carrie's party?" He says figiting with the bottom of his shirt. All I could do was sit there in bewilderment. Who does he think I am? His personal "DUFF"? He then looks up at me with his "I'll make it up" eyes. I finally gave in and told him I would tell them when mom and dad came in.

After they left I sat down on the couch in the living room turning on NETFLIX, and watched a movie. Not long after I drifted off to sleep. I woke up to the sound of two loud, obnoxious boy's. I try shushing them, but it only made them louder. I then glare at Alan, and he shut up. He started to go upstairs inviting Jacob to spend the night. Jacob shook his head and told Alan he would see him at school and left.

Alan and I, headed to our rooms and got in bed." Can't wait for tomorrow!", I say sarcastically turning over and drifting off to sleep.
