I do not own The Lost Boys. I only own Laura, Janette, Mindy, and Tommy.
Story start
"Oh look there's the Santa Carla sign," my little brother said sarcastically and my mother sighed.
"Tommy, I know you didn't want to move away from your friends, but we had to move. Now, this place is going to be a lot of fun and I want you to experience Santa Carla before complaining about it," my mother Janette said as she drove towards our new home.
"Whatever mom," Tommy said before glaring at the scenery outside of the window.
"Laura, are you alright? You're never this quiet," Janette asked curiously, as my dark blue eyes focused on her.
"I'm fine mom, just tired of being in this car," I answered and my mom laughed a little.
"I completely understand," Janette said before she tried to find something good on the radio. My eyes focused on the scenery again as I became lost in thought.
"We moved to the murder capital of the world, great," I thought sighing and resting my head on the window. "Don't worry about what some dumb sign says. We are moving here because mom was offered a better job here in the company. Life back home was boring anyways, why not enjoy living where there is the beach and concerts every night?" I thought with a small smile.
Life at home in a small town was definitely a ten on the boring scale. My mom was lucky enough to get a promotion to a better job in the company in Santa Carla. Tommy was resistant the whole way here, but I was excited about moving here. I have always wanted out of that little town.
"There is a boardwalk here Tommy and I've heard it is a fun place," Janette said trying to cheer Tommy up. "I'm sure your sister wouldn't mind taking you there," my mom said sending me a quick glance. I brushed some of my brown hair out of my face and looked at her.
"Mom, I'm fifteen. I don't need a babysitter," Tommy whined and I chuckled.
"Tommy, your sister is twenty years old and I will feel much better about letting you walk around the boardwalk if your sister is with you," Janette said and I saw her giving me a strict look.
"He'll be fine with me watching him. No worries Tommy, you can do whatever you want, but you're not going alone," I said and Tommy sighed before agreeing.
"Good, you two can go after we have unpacked the car," Janette said and both Tommy and I groaned at the prospect of having to unpack the car.
Later after unpacking it was finally time to get ready to go to the boardwalk. Tommy was being the normal little brother. He was sitting in the living room yelling for me to hurry up. I just stuck my tongue out at him before entering my bedroom. I changed into some tight jeans with holes in them. The shirt was a simple long sleeve black shirt in front, but it had ribbons crisscrossing over the back leaving my back in view. I grabbed my cameo choker that my grandmother left me, and a pair of red converses. My outfit was complete. I brushed my hair, which reached the middle of my back before grabbing my wallet.
"I'm ready," I yelled as I left my room.
"Finally," Tommy said and I saw he was already waiting at the front door.
"Impatient," I muttered as mom appeared holding her purse. She said she was going to walk around the boardwalk as well tonight. Tommy was the first in the car and he smirked when he got the front seat. I just jumped in the back and enjoyed the drive to the boardwalk. It was turning dark quicker than I thought it would.
Tommy dragged me to all of the carnival rides before we ended up at the carousel. I smiled at the music as I sat on one of the carousel horses. Tommy was on a horse a little ahead of me. I was able to keep an eye on him while he flirted with a girl on the horse besides him.
"Well that didn't take long," I thought with a small laugh when I saw Tommy's smiling face. He looked happy to be in Santa Carla now.
A smile appeared on my face as well as I enjoyed the ride on the carousel. I hummed along to the music as I let the music flow through me. My head was thrown back when I felt someone run his or her fingers through my hair. My eyes snapped open and I quickly looked around, but nobody was close enough to touch my hair.
"That was strange," I thought as I scanned the carousel, but I still did not see anyone walking around the carousel or anyone close to me that could have touched my hair. "Whatever, it must have just been the wind," I thought as I jumped off the horse and followed Tommy, who was getting the young girl's number.
Tommy winked at the girl before she disappeared and I walked over to stand beside him. "So who was she?" I asked poking my brother's shoulder.
"That was Mindy," Tommy said with a sigh and I just laughed at him.
"Love sick fool," I muttered and Tommy smacked my arm.
"You're just jealous," Tommy said and I rolled my eyes.
"If I wanted a boyfriend then I would get one," I said and shoved Tommy away from me. He yelled and soon he was chasing me around the boardwalk.
"Get back here Laura," Tommy yelled as I jumped over a bench.
"Run faster Tommy," I yelled as I dodged a few tourists.
"Laura, forget it, I'm finding mom," Tommy yelled as he started running the opposite way. I laughed as I slowed down to a walk. I walked over to the railing on the boardwalk and looked down at the ocean. The night sky was reflecting on the water's surface.
"Beautiful," I whispered as I watched the waves lap at the shore. Lights from the boardwalk and the stars were dancing in the water. The scene was hypnotizing to watch. "Well I guess I should find mom soon if I want a ride home," I said to myself before stretching my arms above my head.
I froze when I felt someone run his or her hands through my hair again. I spun around quickly and froze again when there was no one near me. I ran a hand through my hair as I looked around. "What is going on? I must be tired or something," I whispered to myself as I started to walk back towards the crowded part of the boardwalk.
The crowds on the boardwalk made me feel a little better as I looked for my mom and little brother. After a few minutes of looking around, I was able to find Janette and Tommy in a video store. I entered the store and was about to head straight over to my mom and Tommy, but this man in bright clothing stepped in my way.
"Welcome to my store, I'm Max, how may I help you?" the man said and I gave him a small smile. I was a little annoyed at being stopped, but no need to be rude.
"I was just looking for some people in here, but thank you," I said with another smile before walking around Max to stand with my family. Tommy had two movies in his hands.
"There you are Laura, well let's get Tommy's movies and then time to head home," Janette said happily, as she walked up to the register. Tommy was right behind her.
I walked over to look at a few movies to pass the time, but my attention went straight to the door when four bikers walked inside the store. They were so wild and I could not pull my attention away from them. I stopped breathing when one of them looked at me and our eyes locked. A smirk on his face made me think of the strange feeling with my hair earlier.
