The Summer I Met Him

Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Ever Heard Of Knocking?

Sapphire's POV

I walked through the door to the overly fancy resturaunt, Kenzie at my side. We were supposed to be meeting her parents to tell them that everything was good before they left to go on their own vacation. But everything wasn't okay. I did not want to have to share a hotel room with that cocky son of a bitch. Seriously it's like he thinks he owns the world. But I have to do this. I'm not gonna let him ruin my summer. I needed to compose myself in order for Kenzie and I to fool her parents. I looked around as we waited for Kenzie's parents. I really hoped I wasn't underdressed.

We were at the place of Mr and Mrs.Hart's choosing. They were loaded. Mrs.Hart owns a modeling company that racks in millions a week. Her company provides the models for the fashion shows that famous designers host, or the models you see in magazines. Mr.Hart owns a series of things. He has a restaurant chain, a couple of hotels, a space station, and so many more ridiculous things. They may be rich but they were anything but snobby. In fact sometimes they're a little too kind. That's why I felt wrong doing this, but I don't want to go home.

We spotted Kenzie's parents and headed towards the table.

"Act natural," she whispered, "It'll all be fine."

"Easy for you to say. They're your parents." I whispered back.

"Shhh you'll be fine." Mrs.Hart got up and hugged the two of us tightly.

"Oh girls I've missed you both!" ,she said, or kinda shrieked.

"Mom I've been gone for 9 hours and you just saw Sapph two days ago."

"I know but your my only daughter and Sapphire is like my daughter."

"Awe, Thanks Mrs.H, You're like a mother to me too." I replied. She really was. Mrs.H had always treated me as if I were her own and it made me extremely happy. Mr.H has always welcomed me as well but he's not around much with all his work.

"Well lets sit then," she gestured to the table and we took our seats, "Now tell me girls hows the hotel? Is your suite nice? Did anything go wrong?" At that last question I started picking at my nails. Oh god I hope I don't mess this up.

"Well Mrs.H the hotel is extremley nice as well as the suite. Thanks again for paying for it." So far, so good.

"Oh it's not a problem Dear." Phew. Now lets hope she doesn't ask the last question again. I looked over at Mr.H on his phone. It started to ring so he excused himself. Once he was far enough away so he couldn't hear us Kenzie spoke.

"Mom you know going on this vacation is pointless right? He's just going to be on his phone the whole time. And when he isn't on his phone he'll be on his laptop." Mackenzie doesn't really like her fathers habits with work. She thinks, well more like knows, that her dad is a work-a-hollic. He never really has time to do family things and when he doess he's always on his phone.

"Kenize hush. Your father may work a lot but he isn't that insensitive. Plus don't you trust in your mothers scheming abilities?" Kenzie looked confused while I raised my eyebrow, "I already took his laptop out of our things, his pager is in the back of our closet, and when we get there, I'm taking his phone battery and pretending someone stole it." Reasons why I love Mrs.H. She may be just a mom but man did she know how to handle her problems.

"Mom don't you think he'll just buy a new battery?"

"Not if I have anything to do with it." Kenzie was about to say something but Mr.H came back.

"That was the airport. They said our plane was canceled so we're going to have to catch the earlier flight. So we have to leave now. Sorry girls but we'll see you when we get back." He gave us both hugs and so did Mrs.H before they left. Kenzie turned to me.

"Wanna go back and change then get some McDonalds?" I nodded my head eagerly.

We got back to the hotel and headed up to our suite to change. Hopefully Walter wasn't there. This morning when we got up he was already gone so bullet avoided. Now if the rest of these two weeks goes by as smooth we'll be in the clear. I turned to Kenzie,

"I have to pee I'll be back." She gave me a thumbs up and I walked to the bathroom. Halfway through my pee the door opens. Speak of the devil and he shall appear. I shrieked and the door immediately closed. I finished using the bathroom and stormed over to Walter's room.

"Walter!" I screamed as I banged my fist on his door. The door opened revealing a shirtless Walter. Oh sweet heavens those abs. No focus.

"Yes Princess ?" I rolled my eyes.

"Don't call me that."

"Is that all you wanted?"

"No you walked in on me in the bathroom! Have you ever heard of knocking?"

"Maybe you should've locked the door."

"The only person here was Kenzie. I figured I was good."

"Well Princess, that was your first mistake. See anyone with the key to the suite could come in and my best friend does indeed have the key. What would you do if a buddy of his had left something here from a party and had to use the bathroom? What if he tried to take advantage of you?" I think I'm losing this argument. I huffed in anger and turned to walk away. "By the way Princess, nice dress." I rolled my eyes and walked away. I entered Kenzie and I's room and stripped out of my dress. I put on some light wash jean shorts, my favorite ankle boots, and my unicorn t-shirt. I exited the bedroom waiting for Kenzie in the living room. She finally finished and we left.

~~~~~~

"Kenz, this is not funny!"

"Oh yes it is. I wish I could've seen the look on your face!" Kenzie and I were currently on the beach eating our McDonalds and I have just told her about what happened with Walter. She finds it hilarious.

"Mackenzie Marie!" Kenzie stopped laughing and looked me dead in the eye. She hates her middle name. I don't know why but she does. "Thank you."

"You do realize you're sleeping in the same bed as me right ?" I rolled my eyes.

"Your pathetic threats won't work on me young grasshopper." She laughed and continued eating her fries.

"Okay I'll be serious now. He didn't um see anything did he?"

"Oh god I hope not. But he answered his bedroom door in boxers." Kenzie shrieked.

"You saw him in his boxers! Does he have abs?"

"An eight pack, but that's besides the point Kenz. We should probably lock the door when we use the bathroom now."

"Hey I wouldn't mind."

"Mackenzie!"

"What!
