This world is killing me// Wesley Stromberg

Chapter three

The morning, in Wesley's POV, when Alison said she'd be surfing:

My alarm went off at 6. I know you guys are probably like oh my god wes what do I need 30 minutes for all you have to do is put on swim trunks. But no that's not all I have to do. I need to mentally prepare myself for this. I could have easily just met the girl of my dreams yesterday and in 30 minutes I would have the chance to get to know her that much more. I smiled at myself just thinking of the possibility of being with her. When I looked over at the clock it was already 6:13. See I just wasted 13 minutes thinking about her. Thus giving reason to why I had to walk up at 6.

Once I stopped daydreaming I jumped out of bed and walked into the bathroom doing my morning routine, brushing my hair, using the toilet, and brushing my teeth. Once I was finished in there I quickly grabbed my trunks and slid them on. Now it was 6:24 just enough time to grab myself a banana and my surfboard. Once I was done and finished with everything I met keats at the back door.

"You ready for this bro" he patted my chest as we walked out the door. To be honest I wasn't ready I was terrified. What if she thinks I'm a creeper or ugly or what if she thinks I'm not good enough for her. I know I shouldn't be thinking theses things, hell I don't even know the girl.but I simply answered my younger brothers question.

"When am I not ready" I smirked at him. I know I sounded a bit cocky but I didn't want him to see me as a soft person. "Remember I still have dibs" I stated before running to the open water with my board under my arm. We surfed for a bit then realized it had been about 45 minutes and now it was 7:15 I wonder where she is. I took a break from surfing and just sat on my board.

"I don't think she's coming" I looked to keaton.

"She stood us up" he replied.

"Yep."

We surfed for another hour in hopes she would show. But nope. She never showed. At 8:30 we decided It was time to just give up so we paddled to shore and went inside. I actually feel kind of stupid thinking she would come back I probably scared her away. Wow I'm so stupid.

"Uhg" I grunted as I walked into my bedroom. I just need to do something to get my mind off her. My eyes wandered around my room looking for something I could do and they stopped on my guitar. Even thought I hadn't played in along time it was a perfect idea.

I spent until lunch time playing my guitar and singing and after I ate I went back to my room and played some more. I had forgotten how much I loved music.after awhile more of playing I looked to my clock to see the time it was already 2 wow where'd the time go.

"I haven't heard you play since Drew died" (A/N: please don't hate me) I heard Keaton's voice come from my door."It sounded nice"

"Thanks man. And yea I know I figured it was time to give it a go again. I mean it's almost been a year since it happened" I looked up at him from my bed.

"I'm proud of you wes" he smiled then walked away leaving me alone.
After he was gone I set my guitar down and walked to the window.

"I miss you so much Drew" I spoke looking out to the ocean. "You have no idea how much I could use you right now. You were, no scratch that, you still are my best friend and my brother" I kept my vision straight as a tear trickled down my face. I wiped my face and turned around toward my door deciding to go take a walk on the beach.

Once down stairs I yelled to Keaton "I'm going for a walk I'll be back later" without even hearing his response I was out the door.

I didn't walk far until stumbling upon a girl dressed in pants and long sleeves. What the hell it's like 85 degrees out here and we're at a beach. And as I got walked closer to the person I realized something. The person was Alison. I hope everything's alright.

"Hey Alison" I shouted and smiled but when she lifted her head to look at me I saw her tear stained cheeks and my smile immediately vanished. I quickly sat next to her and wrapped her in my arms and she just collapsed like a rag doll crying into my shoulder.
