Suavemente by Angie Martinez and Wyclef is playing.
"Girl, you need a man. I'm startin to think you gay or somethin'." Said my none too subtle best friend, Elena.
"Elena...don't start...DON't start." I gave her a warning glare.
"I'm serious, loca. It's been 4 years since that psycho...what's his damn name?" Elena insisted.
"Shut up." I looked around. Even though I know she's just tryna be a friend, but damn she can be annoyin'. Why do people fuckin' think the answers to life's problems are always love. Love leaves you broke, knocked up, and fucked up. Literally. I know, trust.
I gotta say, Miami has got to be the best surfing spot. What, with it's crazy waves. The Dominican Republic too. Damn, I miss it. My country. Anyway, this is what I lived for. This is what I did to prove that guys ain't the only ones who are good at extreme sports. Hell naw. I'm good at everything from surfing, to snowboarding, to motocross, to drag racing. I still ain't met my match or any guy who could outdo me, yet.
"Come on, El!" I yelled to her. We ran across the beach to the shore. The sun was way up, the water looked like diamonds, Merengue and Salsa was playing and the scent of fried tostones was in the air. I loved Miami.
We paddled on our boards to where the good waves were at. Finally I spotted it. MY wave. It was beautiful. Huge. At least 10 feet in altitude.
"My wave!!!" I yelled to El. She moved outta the way. I focused. Here it comes. I started paddling as fast as I could until I got to the peak. I quickly stood up on the board and started maneuvering it. I quickly got under the wave and managed to go through it. The waves ends curled in as if it was forming a tunnel and still I managed to stay at the opening. I was good, and I knew it.
After we were done, we paddled to shore, where some guys were clapping and shouting.
Elena was eating it up. Oh please, gimme a break.
"Thanks, thanks." She kept repeating. There was this guy that caught my attention. And apparently, the way Elena was looking, he caught her attention too.
He was muscular, broad shouldered. His head was shaved bald and his eyes had a certain wildness. I was intrigued, but of course, didn't show it. While Elena was all over him I felt his eyes on me as I walked over to the outdoor bar. I ordered a fruit punch. I saw no point in indulging in something that'll kill you early or someone else. As I stared at two lovers getting "touchy-feely" under a towel, I felt a presence behind me. Kind of a looming figure. I turned around and it was him. He didn't make me nervous. No one does.
"Sup." he said as he sat down.
I just looked at him. Wondering what this one had up his sleeve.
"Don't talk much, do you?" He ordered a lemonade.
"What, drank too much last night?" I smirked.
"No. I don't drink." My eyebrows shot up for this one.
"Oh, so you're a Jehovah's Witness?" I laughed despite my will.
"Girl, your philosophies are ALL kind of twisted." I just kind of smiled.
I paid the bartender, plus a tip. I got up, grabbed my board and walked over to my truck, where Elena was glaring at me.
"What?" I looked at her wondering what the hell she was pissed about now.
He came up behind me. "Hey you gotta name or should I call you 'twisted'?"
I turned around. "Look, man. If you're lookin' for easy ass hit Little Haiti."
He looked taken aback. "Hey, Princess. You think you could warm up, just a little and tell me your name."
He's askin' too many questions. "Why? What's it to you?"
He raised his hands in surrender. "Fine. My name is Xander Cage." He put his hand out and I looked at it as if it would burn. I looked back at him with my hands on my hips.
"Ice."
bAuthor's Note:/b Like it? it's my first chappy, so get ready for unexpected twists. Don't believe me? Read "Enough" also written by me. It's a Fast and the Furious fic. It's real good, if I do say so mahself. Constructive criticism is very welcome.
