It was 6:00am and I had decided to get up early to get ready for the day, my family doesn't have anything planned for the day so I am going to put in the effort to look nice for when I go down to the beach and 'bump' into Adam. I barely got any sleep last night, he was all I could think about, but I also thought, how is it that I only just met the guy yesterday and I already can't get him out if my head.
It was a hot day so I decided to wear my favourite pair of denim shorts, they're dark blue denim, and I am wearing a white Lacey top and the same brown sandals I wore yesterday. I put my hair up today in a high ponytail, and put a little bit of makeup on of course.
By the time I had gotten ready it was 9:00am already, and my parents came into my room in the cabin, 'Sienna, we've decided that we want to spend the whole day as a family in town' they said, my face changed to sadness, 'What time will we be back then!?' I said in slight anger, 'About 3 or 4:00pm, why?' They asked, 'No reason' I said trying to hide the anger, it was around 2:00pm yesterday when I bumped into Adam at the beach, hopefully he's still there when I get back.
That day me and my family went into town and did some shopping, had lunch together and saw some of our old friends, but the whole time I was checking my phone and thinking about Adam. Finally at 3:30 they said we were going back to the caravan park, all I could do is jump with excitement in my head, finally I thought!
When we got back I straight away walked down to the bottom of the hill to find if Adam is still there, and he was, with a girl. 'Oh no' I thought to myself, 'I've blown my chance all because my family wanted to go into town', so I walked past them not the jetty to sit and read the book I brought down with me, the same one I brought yesterday. I didn't even turn to look and see what the girl looked like, she was probably prettier then me anyway.
I sat there until the sun started to set, there had been people coming and going to fish on the jetty, I looked over to where Adam and the girl were sitting once and they weren't there anymore, I was sort of relieved that they had gone, so I can stop pretending to read my book, which I had been doing for about 3 hours, I only managed to read 1 chapter.
But then I felt a tap on the shoulder which scared the crap out of me, so I screamed. I turned around to see that it was Adam, alone. 'Hey sorry, I didn't mean to scare you, I just thought we were meeting this afternoon, I waited for you there for ages' he said in sorrow, 'Well you looked like you were pretty occupied so I didn't want to bother you' I said as I stood up to walk away. 'Wait Sienna' he yelled as I was walking away towards the other end of the jetty, I stopped but didn't turn around. 'Please meet me here tomorrow afternoon, and I'll explain?' He asked, 'Okay' I said without turning around still, and I continued walking up to the cabin.
'I can't believe that someone that I've just met can have such a big impact on my emotions' I thought to myself that night while eating dinner with my family in the cabin on the deck. I was looking around the caravan park to see if I could see where his family was staying, but I couldn't. 'Hey mum and dad, are we doing anything tomorrow?' I asked, 'No, why sweetie?' My mum replied with, 'Oh good, no reason, I just wanted to start on my tan at the beach, thought I'd get a head start this year' I replied with a smile, 'Sounds good' my mum said.
Let's see what tomorrow brings, I still have butterflies in my stomach.
