Chapter 1: Honolulu
~Kim's P.O.V~
I woke up to hear the sound of waves crashing, the smell of the salt from the water and the beautiful sun shining in my face. I smiled to myself realising where I was. Hey, I'm Kimberley Anne Crawford, but call me Kim. Seriously call me anything else and I will turn you inside out. Anyway I'm 16 years old and am a second degree black belt. Yeah that's right, SECOND degree. Ha in ya face, anyway I love my karate and my cheerleading but I have a passion for surfing. My dad said I learnt how to surf before I could walk, he taught me everything I know. He was a pro surfer. Yeah the key word there is WAS. He died 2 years ago, he was surfing in Honolulu in Hawaii when it happened, I was there and I saw everything and remember it like it was just yesterday.
~Flashback~
I was standing on the beach waiting for my dad to come out of the hut so he could hit the waves for his heat. After about 5 minutes he came out with a massive smile on his face, he walked up to me and looked at me and smiled.
"Ok Kimmy, what do you think about the waves?" he said as he stared out into the ocean with a grin plastered on his face"
"Well if you ask me, they are massive barrels, you're gonna kill it dad" I replied looking at him with a smile. He put his board on the sand and reached around his neck and unclipped his necklace. He took it in his hands and then put it in mine.
"Kimmy, I want you to have my lucky necklace, I was going to give it to you for your birthday but seeing as it is so long away I thought I would just give it to you now" he said as he looked at me with a sweet smile. I just stared at it in awe. I couldn't believe it, he gave it to me. His dad gave it to him and now he was giving it to me, I was just so surprised I was frozen solid. I then snapped out of my state and jumped on him and hugged him.
"Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!" I screamed. He held me and chuckled, we then parted because the bell went off. He looked at me and his eyes were filled with excitement.
"Ok Kimmy, i'm gonna go and win this thing" he said as he grabbed his board and ruffled up my hair and ran off to the ocean. I sprinted off to the edge of the water and screamed.
"Love you daddy" I screamed loud enough so he could hear me over the roaring waves.
"I love you to Kimmy" he yelled back as he paddled out. Little did I know that, that was going to be the last thing I would ever say to him. It was his last wave and it was massive I remember having this feeling in the pit of my stomach as he dropped in. I saw him go into the barrel but then it crashed, then everything came tumbling down. He didn't make it out of the barrel…nothing did. The beach grew silent. I realised that he hadn't come up yet after a minute or so, so I ran to the water only to be stopped by my dad's friend Rudy.
"Kim, you can't go in there" he said over the now noisy beach as they were getting the Jet Ski's in and the life boats. I remember trying to get out of Rudy's grip but I just couldn't. The life boat then disappeared behind a wave but emerged a few moments later then came into the beach. The jet ski's had been out there for 10 minutes and he hadn't emerged and I was sitting on the beach freaking out. The Jet Ski's came in and I jumped up and ran to meet them ignoring Rudy's calls to stop. Once I reached them my heart literally broke. The only thing they had was my dad's surfboard, they looked at me with sympathy and held their heads low. I just broke down then and there, I remember grabbing my dad's board and just crying and crying until everything went black
~Flashback Over~
That was 2 years ago and since then me and my mum have moved 6 times and it drives me insane. I never had a chance to make friends because we would move before I had a chance. But this time my mum said I would be here until I graduate. We are currently living in Seaford, we moved in yesterday and we live right on the beach. It is a really nice house and I have a room on the top floor of our 2 story house that has a balcony that overlooks the ocean.
I got up and changed into my bikinis and grabbed my dad's surfboard and ran down stairs careful not to wake up my mum and ran outside and onto the sand. I stuck my board in the sand and looked around to see if there were any surfers and there weren't, which I was surprised because the waves were great. I felt my dad's necklace around my neck then grabbed the board and ran into the water.
Once I was out there I just sat on my board and ran my hands through the water surrounding me. I sat there for what felt like hours but was only actually a couple of moments until the perfect wave rolled in. a smile crept onto my face as I started to paddle In to catch it and as I dropped in I felt like time froze. I was in my happy place. It was magical, and I enjoyed every second of it. Once the wave finished I ran inside and onto the back deck and washed off. Leant the board against the door and I walked inside.
~No one's P.O.V~
Little did Kim know, she wasn't alone on that beach, a curious young brunet was watching the blonde surf with amazement. He needed to know who this amazing surfer was, even if it was the last thing that he did.
