Okay, new story. I actually came up with this idea after reading a book called Where is Joe Merchant? by Jimmy Buffett. I myself am living in a quite cold environment and seriously lounging on a beach 90 miles north of Cuba sounds seriously ideal
As always, I don't own Twilight.
Lower Latitudes
We're Going to Key West
I walked in the door, slammed it behind me, and dropped my keys in the bowl quite loudly. It was another snowy day. My car had gotten stuck in the office parking lot and I managed to slip on a patch of black ice for all to see.
"Girls, we are going to Key West!" My two roommates came scrambling out as I announced this. Normally this wasn't me. In fact, it was more along the lines of something Alice would do.
"What!" Alice and Rosalie had one of the most surprised looks on their faces.
"Not that I'm complaining Bella, Key West has some of the best shopping, but why are we going just two weeks before Christmas?"
"I'm tired of the snow and cold weather. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but all I want to do right now is lay on the beach in a bikini getting some rays while sipping of a nice cold margarita." I plopped down on the couch as I tried to unravel all of my layers. Three jumpers and two scarves later I was finally able to take an unconstrained breath. "Well, girls, what do you say?"
"Hell yes! I'm working a dead end job for some jerk three floors up and I haven't had a decent date in months. I'll book the tickets, you girls go pack." Rose left the room. Furious typing could be heard from down the hall.
I turned to Alice now. I could see the gears turning in her head. Then I guess something clicked because the light in her eyes told me so. She dashed out of the room yelling behind her,"OMG, what am I going to pack!"
Silence. I lounged back on the sofa, my winter attire strewn about. What on earth have I done? Sure, the idea of a nice holiday lower in latitude sounded great, but did I really just say I wanted to lounge about in a bikini while sipping a Margarita?
Evil short teaser chapter wasn't it :D
