Summer of 2014. Nothing to be done, except for:
1) swimming at the pool
2) hanging out with friends
3) going to some foreign country or U.S.A. state.
4) daydreaming about the love of your life
5) just sitting, doing nothing, and spending you summer being bored with crap to do
6) getting a job, so you can get some moolah
7) the list goes on and on, so there really isn't any point to keep naming them
All of those points apply (except for 3 and 7) to me, Pug. Yes, my NICKname is Pug, but my real name is Jackie Maeve. The name "Jackie" sounds like a boy's name, but I'm a girl; Pug kinda sounds like boy-ish name, but it's cute. I'm a 5'2 dark-brown haired girl with dreams to end up with the love of my life. I'm a pure romantic, who swoons over romantic movies, loves sour gummy worms and dogs, and loves all her friends like family.
To provide a synopsis, I just got out of middle school, and it's the hot, scorching time of the beloved summer; this a story about how a 14 year old girl who walks with her friends in the summer heat, notices an icecream truck, gets an icecream cone from an icecream truck, abruptly crashes into a guy as she turns around, and drops her nice, cold cone onto his shirt. PERFECT. That was the very first meeting between Jackie "Pug" Maeve and Lewis "Boo" Aymos. She meets more guys, and she ends up in this really big mess. All in all, this a cute romance story.
(B.T.W. Just because one guy was mentioned in the intro, doesn't mean the protagonist ends up with him. . . ^-^)
Josh and Katie have been best friends since he first moved nextdoor midway through freshman year. They were attached to the hip and acted like they've known each other for years.
Josh Parker was the all American boy who all the girls wanted, including Katie. As Katie and Josh's friendship blossomed she quickly formed a crush on Josh, but as the years progressed, her crush turned into love.
Five years after leaving Miami brokenhearted after finding out about Josh's engagement to his childhood sweetheart. Katie unexpectedly reunites with her former best friend, and Josh quickly realizes that his feelings for her are not just platonic anymore.

As I'm walking out of work I get a call from my brother to pick my niece up from school.
For the past 4 years that little girl has had me wrapped around her finger and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Unfortunately I got stuck in traffic on the way over so I'm late for pick up. Once I get to Melanie's classroom I fill out the sign out sheet that's on the wall and make my way into the classroom.
I faintly hear Melanie laughing so I know she's not upset from me being late.
"Hey I'm so sorry. I got stuck in traff..." I said stopping mid sentence, stunned at the woman in front of me.
Standing in front of me is someone I considered one of the most important people to me back in highschool. As soon as I looked into those Caribbean blue that I used to know so well, I knew it was her.
It takes her a few seconds to realize who I am. She stands there stunned. We continue to stare at each other until she breaks the silence.
"Josh?" She asks not believing it's actually me.
"Hey Katie girl."
