Cherry Lips ° Sarah Cameron

One

          "Rafe! Get your ass down here, Rose wants us to take this cake to the new neighbors. The ones that moved in two houses down." Sarah yelled up the stairs toward her brother Rafe.

          "Okay Sarah, geez. Do you wanna walk it?" Rafe was walking down the stairs pulling a shirt over his head, clearly not amused by the whole ordeal.

          "Yeah some fresh air will do us good," the two began walking through figure eight towards the large house that their new neighbors had bought. Once they had reached the door to the new house Sarah put on her award winning smile, "Are you ready to make sure the new neighbors know Ward Cameron thinks he has the best kids south of the Mason Dixon Line?"

          "Always am, Sarah. You know we have to keep up impressions," Rafe said as he knocked on the door. To their surprise it wasn't an adult who answered the door, it was a beautiful young girl around Sarah's age. They were both awestruck by her beauty, "Uh, hi. My name's Rafe and this is my sister Sarah we live two houses over from you on Tannyhill. Our parents wanted us to bring this cake over to you to welcome you to the neighborhood."

          "Hi! My name's Alyssa, but you guys are more than welcome to call me Lyssi all my friends do," the girl reached for the cake Rafe was holding out to her but couldn't seem to take her eyes off of Sarah, "Do you guys want to come in for a minute? I haven't really made any friends yet, so here's to you guys being my first."

          Sarah beat Rafe to the punch because she still hadn't had the chance to speak, "Of course, we're not doing anything right now. I think Rafe is gonna meet up with his friend Topper to do something stupid later but we're good right now, right Rafe?"

          "Yeah, we can come in for a bit." Rafe responded. Alyssa opened the door wider for the siblings and had them follow her to the kitchen so she could sit the cake on the counter, the teens took a seat at the island and Rafe decided to break the ice a little, "So if you're interested in meeting some of the people around here there's a keggar at the boneyard on The Cut tonight, not really our type of thing but the guys from Figure Eight always like to crash."

          "Yeah, it's usually a pretty interesting scene," Sarah encouraged the girl, more hoping that she'd be able to see her again than anything.

          "That definitely sounds like something I would wanna check out. I don't really know anything about the geography of this place though you guys wouldn't mind if I bummed a ride, would you?" She smiled kindly at the Cameron siblings.

         "Oh no definitely! Sarah doesn't have her license yet so you guys are stuck riding with me as long as that's not an issue?" Rafe conquered.

          "That sounds great."

          "Rafe and I will swing by to pick you up around 7, if that good?"

          "I'll be ready! The parentals will be happy I'm getting socialized," Alyssa laughed.

Sarah had decided to dress a bit more down for this occasion. She had opted for a halter bikini top as a shirt and a denim skirt, and sitting in Rafe's truck she was very happy with her choice of outfit. It was absolutely sweltering, even though it was always warm in the Outer Banks it seemed uncharacteristically hot for the beginning of summer.

Rafe swing a wide turn into their new friends driveway and Alyssa was bolting down the driveway as soon as she spotted the truck. She looked gorgeous, simple even. In a lavender sundress with some flip flops, she had Sarah mentally flopping like a fish out of water. Sarah didn't know where these feelings had arose from inside of her, she had never felt such strong attraction toward another girl.

"Hey guys," Alyssa beamed as she situated herself into the seat behind Sarah in the truck, "is it this hot all summer? I'm dying," She laughed.

"I think this summer is supposed to be one for the recordbooks," Sarah muttered back.

One chapter down, kinda short. I really don't know how to feel about this. I don't think I'm a very good writer but I just noticed there weren't very many Sarah fics out there at all and decided to give one a go. Tell me what you guys think. 10 votes for the next chapter?
