The Boy from the Dock [H.S]

Allison McLaren.

After her parents plan a two month cruise over the summer, Allie and her brother are forced to stay with their grandparents in their cottage in Cape Cod. She hasn't visited their cottage since she was ten years old.

There's no wifi. No friends. Nothing.

She catches a glimpse of the boy that flipped her world upside down all those years ago, and somehow fell even harder.

-

Harry Styles.

Harry lives in Cape Cod, with his single mother and his little brother. He works as a boat chauffeur for Mr and Mrs. McClaren, saving up as much money as he can to go off to college.

He's gearing up for a summer of work and making ends meet for his family, but he loses sight of his priorities when he notices the golden hair he could recognize anywhere.

The boat rocks back and forth, the chirping of birds and voices next door filling my ears. Sweat collects at the back of my neck as the hot sun beats down on me.

Why did I wear black in this heat?

Footsteps echo on the dock. I tilt my head toward the sound.

She steps into the sunlight, her blonde hair catching fire as it sways gracefully behind her. My heart beats against my chest, and everything else fades away.

The heat, the noise, all those past years.

Allie.

She smiles and just like that, this summer just started to mean something.
