I Gotta Find You

Chapt. 1 (Introduction)


Abby's Perspective.

"Abby, get your ass over here!," said my best friend Taylor.
"Just wait a minute, you impatient freak!" i said, laughing. i felt the warm water rush up burrying my feet deeper into the sand and then it rushed back outwards. i was picking up sea shells for my collection. i paused and looked out into the atlantic ocean. This was my favorite place in the world, it's like I can look out into infinity. the warm water goes on and on and the calmness never seems to end.

well, It was summer and taylor & me were making an effort to go to the beach as often as possible to get a nice tan before school started. maybe my peach skin would get a little tan to make me look not so "blah" but more "ahh." i didn't wanna look like a freak my first year in high school. but i never thought that would really be a problem for Taylor, since her blonde hair already looked great with her skin tone, and she was pretty much the gorgeous she could ever get.

i started to walk back over to Taylor and placed my sea shells into my bag and sat on my blue towel. "what'd you want, tay, i was getting shells," i said like she just interrupted my life.

"we came here to chill, tan, and meet cute guys, not to collect shells, you dope!" she said with a smile. "I guess your right, but the whole summer I better get some shell time or i'll really get you when we go back to school," i said. "Oh wahhh," Taylor replied with saracasm. "you know, sometimes your saracasm hurts!" i said giggling. she laughed. but you know, ever since summer started, it's felt like there's something missing, and it wasn't school...

Joe's Perspective

i was walking down the shore with nick and kevin when I ran up to nick and picked him up. I tossed him into the water and he landed on his bumm. "what the heck, joe!?" nick screamed and laughed. "Sorry nick, just whenever i look out into the atlantic i always feel the need that it needs some more nick sauce in it..." i explained. "oh whatever," said kevin with a laugh. we continued our walk on the shore collecting shells. Nick wandered deeper into the ocean. "hey guys look at this one," nick held up a huge conch shell. "woah dude lemme see that," i said loudly. the conch shell looked so beautiful in the sun, it sparkled. "Definately keeper!" yelled kevin from the shore. we walked along the beach for about an hour until we got our pillow case full of shells. we were having the need to sleep on shells, that night. we went to the snack shack on the edge of the beach and ordered up a couple of smoothies.
"you know, i was just thinking the other day, we've been single for a looong time now... and we haven't even given any of the girls a chance at school.. i mean they all liked us, but why didn't we date them?" nick asked joe. "none of them seemed to fit, y'know?" i replied with a sigh. i guess he was right. "yeah i guess, but really joe, your so picky when it comes to girls..." "no, your just too open, I'm the ladies man here," i said with lots of enthusiasm. "whatever." but you know, ever since summer started, it's HAS felt like there's something missing, and it wasn't all the attention from girls...
