A/N: This is inspired by my friend Jackie and her fun ways of doing things:) I had to have two couples to make this story fun, and I knew that the only logical couple to put was them. Please R&R so I know to continue. already have a couple more chapters written so if I know people want it updated I'll add them.
Shelly (me): Who wants to read it now?
Jackie: Oh god...
Shelly: Hey! Don't judge until you've read it. There's Joe..... and you.
Jackie: *eyes go wide* Why didn't you say so in the first place! *pushes shelly over*
Shelly: Ow.... anyway here it is!
Shelly POV
I climbed the cold green bars and shifted so my legs were dangling over the edge. I sighed and looked around me. My blonde hair wiped around my face in the slight breeze. This was something I always wondered about, jumping off the side of a busy road bridge into the crisp waves of a lake or ocean below. Cars flew by behind me in both directions, they couldn't see me until their headlights hit the spot where I sat. It was almost pitch black out, but the stars kept me from seeing strange things within the darkness. Woods surrounded the lake.
I took off my navy aero sweatshirt and put it under the bars near the very thin side walk. I had already put my short jean shorts there. I was left in a green bikini, it wasn't too dark, but it definitely wasn't too light. I lifted myself off the bars so I was standing on what seemed like a centimeter worth of cement. I climbed back up on the bars so I was standing. Thank god it hadn't been raining recently or I would've fallen.
I balanced with my hand on the thick pipeline next to me. Then I jumped. While I was in the air I bent my legs back and I felt like I was on a rollercoaster, going down. I hated that feeling, but it was worth it when I was surrounded by freezing then warm water. I opened my blue eyes and saw dark blue waters and my hair floating around my face. I stayed like that for what seemed like forever, but was probably only a few minutes. I swam to the left and kept swimming until I reached shore. I walked on the shore, which was where the bridge just about ended above me. I climbed the ladder back up. I couldn't wait to tell my best friend about it.
I walked and got my sweatshirt and shorts, but didn't put them on yet. I grabbed my sneakers and socks and put them on though. I held the rest of my clothes as I walked so I could dry before I put them on. I pulled my hand through my hair and shook it out to loosen it up. The bridge was in a very small forested area, yet used as a highway route in California. It wasn't long until I got to Hollywood. I pulled my shorts on and then put my sweatshirt on and then zipped it. I felt warmer instantly. I walked into a local diner and sat down on one of the stools, near the door, at the counter.
Sterling POV
I put the cup back on the counter and looked over as the bell above the door rang. Paparazzi had been almost never around, so he wouldn't be surprised if it was them. It wasn't the paparazzi though, it was a girl. A wet girl. I looked at her in confusion, she had wet hair and had wet clothes as well. The top layers were dry, but it showed some spots from the clothes beneath. She sat at the counter. He noticed her long blonde hair and the way she smiled. She had curves, noticeable through the sweatshirt.
She took her phone out of her pocket when it rang. A familiar song, but he couldn't recognize it right off.
"Ya Mum, I get it. This is summer vacation, so no, I'm not going to come back yet." There was a pause as the person on the other end spoke.
"Summer just began you'll see me in a couple months." She said and then another pause.
"Yes Mum I'll be careful. Love ya too." Then she hung up and put her cell back in her pocket. She sighed and thanked the waiter as he set a cup of coffee in front of her. I grabbed my cup and walked over. I sat on the stool next to her. She looked over at me.
"Hi." I said, smiling sheepishly.
"Hi." She smiled weakly back.
"Nice hair." I said, smirking. She laughed and smiled wider.
"Thanks."
"What's your name?" I asked her.
"Shelly. You?"
"Sterling. Strange, but different. Like yours, Shelly isn't all that common." I said, taking a sip out of my coffee.
"I like it though, it fits me." She said looking down and then at me again with a smile.
"I never said I didn't like it." I said smiling. I couldn't help but smile, she was cute, funny, and by the way she talked, smart. She laughed again.
"You from around here?" I asked her.
"No, I'm from Massachusetts." She said and took a sip of her coffee.
"How about you?" She asked. "I'd assume seeings how you're an actor."
"How'd you-" I began, then she spoke again.
"T.V." She said. "I don't care guys like that are always quick and only want one thing." She said.
"No, not all of them." I said quickly, trying to save myself.
"Sure. Why are here anyway? In a small diner, no club, no bar, no pathetic girls all over you?" She asked, as if she didn't believe that I'd rather be here.
"I don't like doing that all the time. Some people do, but I'm not like that. Most people do it because they think it'll get them more publicity." I said truthfully, looking into her eyes.
"Weird thing is." She said, looking straight back. " I believe you." She finished smiling. We ended up talking for an hour. I found out that she was a seventeen year old named Shelly O'Brien. She was in California for the summer.
She put money down for her coffee.
"It was great talking. I gotta go." She said, walking towards the door.
"Wait." I said, throwing money down for my coffee and ran after her. She was right outside the door. I got outside and ran over to her.
"When will I see you again?" I asked, hoping that we would see each other again. She turned around.
"Who knows." She said, smirking and walked a couple feet.
"Where are you staying?" I asked, hands in pockets.
"What's it to you Star Boy?" She asked.
"Maybe we could do something later." I said, not knowing what else to say.
"The Celebrity." She before walking away. I stood there, watching as she walked away.
Shelly POV
I thought about what I learned about this guy. Sterling Kingston, nineteen and very cute. His blonde hair and blue eyes. His face wasn't bony, like in those pictures and things he's played in made him look. He looked like he did on Sonny with a Chance.
I walked up to the door to my room and unlocked the door. I shut it behind me and walked over to the bed. I took off my sweatshirt and threw it on the floor. I'd pick it up later. The room was a beige and brown mix. When you walked through the door there was a wall with two doors on the left, closest to the door was the closet and then there was the bathroom. When you walked further it was an open room. Bedroom on the left and the kitchen on the right side.
I got dressed for bed, which was a thin purple and black silky nightgown with thin straps. It went down half way to my knees. I shut off the lights and went to sleep.
