Island Crash
Oh my gosh! Melissa thought. Today is the day I go to Hawaii. She and her friends, Colleen, Jonah, and, Dylan where going to Hawaii! She hadn't been there since she was 2, so she wouldn't remember it. The single thing she remembered was a ferry collapse. And, even so, that reminiscence was pretty hazy. And she was excited to go. So couldn't sleep the prior night. And she was really tired. She almost didn't want to wake up. She groaned, moaned, complained, but she got out of bed. Wow! Melissa thought. I'm really going to Hawaii. This is so… so… AMAZING! She quickly grabbed her I-pod touch, and sped downstairs for some waffles and homemade peach jam. "So," said Melissa's mom, "before you stuff your face, mind packing?" Melissa grinned and said, "Ok," and went upstairs to pack.
The first thing she packed was her everyday clothes, then her swim stuff, then her hygiene pack, then, last, she tucked her diabetes injections into her swimsuit. She zipped her pack up and grabbed her purse and stuffed her wallet in there which held 400 dollars that she saved up from working at an aquarium and babysitting. Ding Dong! "I'll get it!" Melissa shouted. She whipped open the door to find her friend Dylan standing there with a green duffel bag. I'm so glad you could come!" Melissa yelled as she hugged him. "Yeah, it was hard convincing my mom to let me go on a two week vacation to Hawaii with only three friends." "And from what I've heard, Colleen had no problem convincing her parents." I replied. They ran into the kitchen for waffles and peach jam. After they both had two waffles, they heard a Ding Dong! She and Dylan ran to the door. Melissa pulled open the door. Hoping to see colleen, she only saw her mom's new boyfriend, Burt. Jeez, Melissa thought. He's dressed in skinny leather pants, a leather jacket, black shiny shoes, and a black t-shirt. What a freak. And it was all black. Even his cool sports shades. She knew something was up, though, when she saw a black afro wig on him. Dylan and Melissa slowly raised their eyebrows.
