Zack's P.O.V:
I was kinda sad to see Brooke go, but i had never been so happy to accidently hit a girl with a vollyball in my life. Well, that was a first anyway, but it had awesome results. "So, what do you think of Brooke, Zack?" Seline asked me when I got back to the beach chairs and sat down. " I don't know. She seems really cool" I said as I picked up a stick and started drawing random lines in the sand. "She's pretty cute, huh?" Sophie came up to me and asked. Her new 'friend' Penny left a little while ago. "Wait, what?" I asked, I could feel my face getting hot. "haha just look at him! You really like her, huh Zackio?" Seline said sitting down next to me. "Well, she's really nice and pretty and all. That's for sure." 'just keep drawing, don't pay attention to them' I kept thinking. I didn't feel like being hounded with questions all night because of a cute girl at the beach.
"Admit it! You like her!" Sophie said playfully punching my arm. "I, uh. I don't know what your talking about." 'just keep looking down, ignore them' I kept having to tell myself. "Seline, Susan just called and she wants you home. So that means we all have to go." Thank god for my Aunt! The whole ride, Seline and Sophie WOULD NOT LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE! I thought i was going to go insane if i heard "you know you like her!" or "she's adorable, just admit it" or even "just call her and ask her out already you sissy!" At least 10 minutes into the ride, we dropped Seline off. But Soph would still not let up on her own.
"What the Hell is your problem anyway Zack! You obviously have a crush on her. Just ask her out." Sophie pushed again as we got out of the car and were headed into my Aunt Karins house. I live with her and Soph. I've never told anyone why, and I never will. "No! Just leave me alone Soph! Besides, a girl like her would never like me anyway!" I snapped at her. I immediatly felt bad about it after. "Look, im sorry. But, im just really tired. Night Soph." I said just before I closed my bedroom door. "Night Zack" I heard her say from the hallway.
I tried for hours to sleep, but the whole day kept replaying in my mind. But most of all, all I could think about and picture, was Brooke. Again, Vollyball+Cute Girl= GREAT day. I kept seeing her beautiful bright blue eyes, her perfect little nose. Every detail about her, from every curve on her body to the sparkle in her eyes, was engraved in my mind. I had to see her again, I just had too. Good thing I had her number... Wait, I HAD HER NUMBER! I ran over to my desk, nearly tripping over one of my guitars, and copied Brooke's number onto my calender so I wouldn't forget it. When i finally turned to look at the clock, it was 11:30! I tried desperately for about 30 minutes to sleep, but eventully gave up. I grabbed my guitar and started strumming. eventually, i had a whole song. By the time it was done, it was 2 in the dam morning!
As I tried to sleep for the third time that night, I swore that as soon as I woke up, I would call Brooke. No excuses. And with that, i drifted off to sleep with dreams filled with music and Brooke.
