"I totally won." I said.
"Nuh uh. I got 285 points. You got 281 points." he said bragging.
We've been playing the Xbox 360 for the past half hour. It's really funny because he keeps winning.
"Oh fine. But, I call rematch after dinner." I said smirking at him.
"Mommy? What are we having for dinner?" he said.
"Your favorite. Chicken pot pie." my mom said.
"OOO! Yay!" he said.
We all sat at the table and starting eating.
I look at my mom from across the table. She has beautiful long blonde hair. I have black hair and I don't know where I got it from. My dad has dirty blonde hair and my mom and Ollie have bright blonde hair. I think it might've come from my great grandma Kathleen.I look to the left of me and see the beautiful ocean against the Orange sunset.
We live in a beachouse in Pensacola, Florida. You might think living on a beach is amazing. It's not. In fact, you're practically always in sand. You bathe in sand, you sleep in sand, you eat in sand. Everything here comes with a side of sand.
"So...The Jones' have invited us over for dinner tommorrow." my mom says.
"The Jones'? Why?" I say.
"Brian is a good friend of mine from work. He has a daughter around the same age as you and a son around the same age as you, Ollie." my dad says talking to the both of us.
"Alright. What's her name?" I ask.
"I believe her name is Penny." my dad says.
"Oh yeah. I know who she is. She's a sophomore." I say.
"Okay. She's only one grade older than you, big deal." he says.
"Can me and Becka go outside and watch the sunset?" Ollie blurted out.
"I suppose. Finish your dinner first." my mom says.
Ollie shoves the rest of his plate in his mouth then climbs down from his chair and grabs my arm and pulls me out to our backyard and all the way to the beach.
"Slow down. What's the big deal? There are sunsets everyday." I say.
"Look!" he blurts and points out to the ocean.
There were 4 dolphins leaping in and out of the water far from the shore but still visible.
"Aren't they pretty?" he asks.
"They sure are." I say starring out into the sunset.
