June 2nd, 2032.
It was a beautiful morning when Angela had woken up from her slumber. She threw the covers off her head showing her orange bed head, her hair was all over the place. She stretched her arms over her head, and immediately opened her baby blues eyes wide. Today was June 2nd, her cousin Jillian-Ray Pickles was coming to visit from New York for the entire summer, and he was staying with her and her parents in Orlando, Florida. This was exciting new, especially since she was close with him, the two would talk to each other over Instagram, Twitter, and text message.
She reached over towards her nightstand that was placed beside her bed and grabbed her glasses. She placed them on and rolled out of bed putting her feet in her slippers. It was too early for her to get dressed, she just walked downstairs in her pajamas. When she walked into the kitchen her father - Charles Finster, was standing by the stove making breakfast. Her mother - Angelica Pickles-Finster, was looking at her art book of fashion designs. Everyone was surprised when Angelica had become a fashion designer, thinking she was going to follow in her mother's footsteps.
"Good morning parents," Angela said with a small smile marching over towards the refrigerator, she grabbed the orange juice and shut the door going over to grab a cup in the cabinet beside her father. "What you making breakfast for?," she asked already knowing the answer, he was making Jillian-Ray's favorite food.
Chuckie looked over towards his daughter with a big smile,"I'm making breakfast for you cousin, he'll be here soon, he just got to the airport ten minutes ago and he's taking a cab her." He flipped the pancake in the pan.
Angela was excited to see her cousin, especially since the last time they seen each other was two years ago at a family reunion in Texas. She poured herself some juice and placed the rest back in refrigerator. She sat down at the table across from her mother.
Angelica looked up from her work and looked at her daughter with an eyebrow raised, "your cousin is coming, and you're still in your pajamas?." She shook her head and closed her sketch book, taking a sip of her coffee.
"Mom~," she groaned with a slight giggle. "It's too early to get dressed, I'll get dressed when I leave to go see Michael today," she informed her mother.
Chuckie couldn't help but roll his eyes, he couldn't believe he agreed to allow his daughter to date at the age of sixteen. When she first asked at twelve, she said she can date at sixteen, but now he regrets allowing his princess to date. He just didn't like the boy she was with, honestly she didn't like any boy she would date.
Michael Bradley is Angela sixteen year old boyfriend - originally from Texas. This bull riding boy had stolen her achy heart. He was definitely a looker with jade green eyes that catches any girl's attention, and soft light brown hair. Leave it up to Angela he had the smile of an angel, and the smirk of the devil. He stood 6'1 towering over Chuckie - who was a good 5'10. He was lean, do to bull riding and he loves to hit the gym a ton. And he was deeply in love with Angela Crandall Finster.
The two started officially dating last year after her birthday - December 25th, where she turned sixteen. However, the two liked each other when he finished move there last year around October.
"Michael huh? You really must like this boy," Angelica gave her daughter a big smile. She had no problem with her daughter dating, it was healthy for girls to start dating at her age. "Do we have to have that 'talk'?"
Angela blushed and looked down at the table, "no mom, we aren't doing that stuff, I'm not ready for that type of thing yet." She finished her orange juice and her father placed the food on the table, at that time the doorbell rang. "I'll get it," she jumped up from her seat and run over towards the door opening it.
"Hey cuz," Jillian-Ray smiled happily at his cousin. He picked up his suitcases, and walked into the house, it's been awhile since he had visited his aunt's house. "Why are you still dressed in your pajamas?," he poked her shoulder.
Angela rolled her eyes and grabbed one of his suitcases. "Its too early in the morning, I'll get dressed after breakfast," she placed his suitcase in the living room and skipped into the kitchen with her cousin following behind him. She sat down across from her mother, and Jillian-Ray took the place beside her.
"Oh, Jill you look so handsome," Angelica smiled at her little cousin.
Jillian-Ray is quite the looker, with his black hair that remind people of the dark, ocean blue eyes, that girls fall deeply in love with. He had a sweet smile that'll melt chocolate, but behind that smile held evilness. Since he is from Brooklyn NY, he did have attitude and was straight forward. He mostly dressed like a male model, it was just his style. He mostly got his looks from his father Timmy-Ray, his mother - Ashley didn't give him much of his looks just his personality.
Jillian-Ray laughed softly at his aunt and ran his fingers through his hair,"thank you aunty, you don't look a day over twenty." He would always compliment adults just to get on there good side. Even though Angelica was his cousin since she was older than him being forty-two he liked to call her his aunt. He looked at the breakfast on the table, "wow this looks good,let me guess you made it huh Charles?"
"I was told it was your favorite, I just had to make it," Chuckie adjusted his glasses and started eating the food he had made. "So, do you two have plans for this summer?"
"We totally do, Ian and the other our coming down here for half of the vacation we will be spending sometime with them," Angela answered stuffing a piece of pancake down her throat. She grabbed her fork, and took another one. "I'll be taking them to some beaches, my favorite hangouts and other things, mom it even going to allow us to model one of her fashion shows."
Jillian-Ray couldn't help but laugh at his cousin, she was freaking hilarious. "How about you talk after you finished swallowing what you have in your mouth Angel," he called her by her nickname he used when they were children. "So, aunty your clothing is really popular in New York, a ton of famous people were you clothing like Hunter Oakley, and Cecilia Reeve."
"What?! Cecilia Reeve wears my mother's clothing? I didn't even know that," Angela's mouth hang open in surprise. Of course she knew some celebrities wear her mother's clothing, but she didn't know the queen herself Cecilia had a taste for her mother clothing. "That's fucking crazy."
Chuckie glared at his daughter for saying a cus word,"Angela Crandall Finster, we do not use that type of language in this house."
Angela flinched a bit at her father's stern voice and lowered her head, "yes father, I'm sorry." She went back to eating her food, she can hear her cousin laughing quietly at her, and she eblowed him in the side before grabbed a strawberry and placing it in her mouth.
"Yes I've heard," Angelica looked at her cousin with a small smirk. "Do you have any interest in modeling? I can hire you as a part timer since your only seventeen and still in high school, you can do shows when I'm in NYC."
Jillian-Ray shrugged his shoulders, he hasn't really thought about modeling before, many people told him he was good for it being 6'2. "I haven't really thought about modeling, but just for you aunty I'll think about it, and maybe I'll even do modeling here in Orlando."
"I'm going to get dressed," Angela mumbled and removed herself for the table. Today was the day she is introducing Jillian-Ray to her boyfriend,and of her friends from school. She knew that they two were going to get along great and she couldn't wait.

Angela walked into her room, her hair was still a mess and she needed to talk a hot shower. She was happy that her cousin was staying with them for vacation, he was like her older brother. She was closer to him than she was to her younger cousin Ian,Baliee, Janet, Anderson, and Olive. She was close to them, don't get her wrong, but Jillian-Ray was different. She walked over towards her closet and pulled out some clothes.
She walked over towards her nightstand and grabbed her Samsung Galaxy S®6 edge in gold platinum, the phone she got for Christmas. She unlocked it, and noticed she had gotten a miss call from her boyfriend,she pressed the number and called his back putting the phone to her ear.
( "Hello Pumpkin," ) Michael's thick southern accent came through the phone.
Angela was in love with his accent,it was music to her ears. She couldn't help but blush a the pet name he had given her. "Hey Kitten, you called?"
( "I called to say good morning, but I guess you were busy," ) he chuckled into the phone. ( "Did your cousin arrive yet?." )
"Yes, and I can't wait for you guys to meet each other," Angela smiled into the phone." Meet us at Daily Go & Get It Café in about a half an hour, I have to go get dress, and Jillian-Ray has to settle down, okay?"
( "Okay,meet you two there pumpkin," ) he chuckled before hanging up the phone.
"That was your boyfriend right?," Jillian-Ray asked entering her room after she hung up the phone. He glance around the smirk with a small smirk, "wow, your room still like the same since you were a baby, don't you think its time for a change?." He pointed to the piglet wallpaper she still had, and the stuffed animals placed on her toy box that she still had. "Unless your parents are planning to have another baby, which at their age I highly doubt it, you need to get rid of all these baby things, do you bring Michael in here?"
Angela blushed in embarrassment, her cousin was right she is sixteen years old. She still didn't need all of this baby stuff, she should give it away to Dove - her friend Gabby Connelly's baby sister. She walked over towards her toybox, "I do plan on getting rid of this, I need room for my mini refrigerator I'm getting in a few weeks, I'll just give this to my friend's baby sister."
"And no I don't bring Michael in here, my dad doesn't allow him in here when he visits," Angela walked over towards her bay window. "Jill, have you ever you know with your girlfriend?"
Jillian-Ray placed his hands in his pocket and walked over towards the bay window taking a seat beside his cousin. "I have, but it isn't what it's cracked up to be, my ex-girlfriend had a pregnancy scare, and it made me realize that I can wait until I was older to have sex, or I'll make sure she is on the pill, and I use a condom."
"Pregnancy scare?," Angela asked like a little kid asking their mother a question.
Jillian-Ray couldn't help but shake his head at his cousin's clueless expression. "You're sixteen and don't know what pregnancy scare means? I have to teach you so many things Angel," he pats her head with a small sigh. "A pregnancy scare it when someone thinks they pregnant but aren't sure, this person mostly doesn't want to be pregnant or just didn't plan for it to happen, they get tested and find out they aren't pregnant, if you don't know this I don't think your ready to have sexual relations."
Angela pouted, he was basically calling her stupid."I don't want to do that kind of stuff anyway, I'm not like my friends." She stood up from the bay window and looked over towards her cousin, "we are leaving after I finish getting dressed, we are meeting Michael at the cafe down a few blocks away from here."
"Whatever brainless," Jillian-Ray waved his hand before leaving his cousin's room. This vacation was definitely going to be a fun one, and it was just getting started.

It was around two o'clock in the afternoon when they left the house and went to the Daily GO & Get It Cafe, to meet her boyfriend Michael and some of her friends they'll be hanging out with over the summer. She opened the door and walked in, this cafe was on Wed by her friend's Gabby mother. It was their hang out, somewhere they went when school was over, or to just talk and relax.
"Angela," someone called out her name.
Angela looked at her usual table, Gabby was the girl that was calling her. Gabby was her best friend in the entire world. She had beautiful caramel colored skin, that was soft to the touch. Hazel green eyes, that was always filled with mischief, long silky brown hair that reach her hips which was always done in single braids.
Beside Gabby was Angela's frenemy, Constance Pine. She had tanish skin,kind of like she went to a tanning booth but it was her natural skin color. Her baby blue eyes, were beautiful and she had a beauty mark underneath her left eye. She had dirty blonde her that reached the nape of her neck, that was natural wavey.
Beside Constance was Angela's other best friend Tyler Barnett, he looked like your topical jock, but he was anything but. He had ivory color skin, that seemed to glow about when he was excited about something. He had the deepest dark brown eyes, that reminded people of dark chocolate. His ginger color hair kind of made him stand out among the friends, and when he stood up he reaches about 6'2 which was the height of most of the males in his family.
Beside Tyler was Gabby's boyfriend or friend with benefits as they will call it. Amos Summers, he was a male with skin like milk chocolate. He had dark brown hair, that would appear to be black but wasn't, his eyes were the most intense amber color, which he had inherited from his great grandmother on his father's side. He had a smile that'll make girls simply fall in love with him, which is why Gabby had agreeable to be his 'friend w/ benefits'. He stood about 5'11 being the shortest boy in the group of friends.
Lastly, Michael was sitting next to him with his angelic smile and jade green eyes staring at his beautiful girlfriend. He had a cup of coffee in one hand and a muffin in the other.
Angela made her way to the table with the biggest smile on her face, she couldn't wait to introduce her friends to her cousin from Brooklyn, New York. She pulled out a chair, and sat down while her cousin grabbed a chair from another table and placed it beside her. "So, this my cousin Jillian-Ray, or just Jillian, Jill ,or Ray."
Jillian-Ray looked at his cousin friends and gives them all a small wave which they all gladly returned.
"Jill, these are my friends Gabby, Constance, Tyler, and Amos, and my amazing boyfriend Michael," Angela pointed to each of them in the order that they were sitting in. "So, Gabby do you have anything planned for tonight?"
"Of course I do girl, you don't even know," Gabby answered with a huge smirk, she was the planner of the group. She knew where the parties were, she planned trips to Disney world, the beach, etc. "A party time at the beach, its Mandy's party."
Angela sighed heavily, the girl that she hated was throwing a party that she'll be attending. "Please tell me that there is another party somewhere else, I don't want to attend Mandy's party."
According to the student ranking system Mandy Stewart was the most popular girl in the school. She was your stereotypical blonde cheerleader, who dates the quarterback of the football team. She had long blond hair that reached the middle of her back, and light honey colored brown eyes. She was a complete bitch, and was basically the queen B of the school which leave up to Angel stands for the queen bitch.
Jillian-Ray looked at his cousin with raised eyebrows, "what's wrong with this Mandy girl?"
"She's just the biggest bitch in the entire school, she tries to make our lives a living hell, plus she is just white trash," Constance answered grabbed a donut, and taking a bite. "Despite having a boyfriend she flirts with all the boys in the school including Michael, she might try to flirt with you, especially since you're good looking."
"I wouldn't touch her even with a six foot pole, she probably have STDs," Michael shivered in disgust at the mere thought. "Plus I have a beautiful girl that I'm deeply in lo e with, and I'll never leave her for anyone, especially not some whore, who mostly slept with the entire school, including male teachers."
Jillian-Ray laughed a bit, and look at his cousin Angela who was just blushing, it was adorable how innocent she was. "How about we make a plan to expose her? I don't mind making out with her for a few minutes to get a couple secrets out of her, anyone who messes with my cousin is a dead man or woman."
"I like that way you think," Amos smirked placing his elbows down on the table. "We can totally get rid of this bitches ranking in school, and she won't be able to bother us anymore."
Angela looked at her cousin, then over towards Amos, "I don't think that'll be a good idea guys, wouldn't she just get her boyfriend to beat you two up or just call the police."
"I agree with Angela, as much as I hate Mandy, I don't think that blackmailing her would be such a good idea, or she'll simply laugh because we don't necessarily have any evidence than the words coming out of her mouth," Gabby jumped in with a doubtful look.
Jillian-Ray waved the two off with a small smile, that had mischief behind it, "I wouldn't worry to much, I'm from New York, and us new yorkers definitely know how to knock someone off their high horse." He assured them with a simple wave, and decided to change the subject. "So, any cute girls around here or what?"
Amos placed his arm around Jillian-Ray shoulder, "definitely bro, I can show you the most wonderful place to pick up some smoking hot girl, the beach." He smiled a bit.
Gabby couldn't help but get jealous when Amos talked about other girls, even though they were together, she didn't want any other girl all of him. The truth was she only agreed to be his 'friend w/ benefits' because she had the biggest crush on him. She just hoped he would realize he liked her too, and ask her out, but she doubt's that'll even happen.
Angela noticed that her friend was in a sour mood and decided to change the subject. She knew of Gabby's 'secret' crush on Amos. "Amos, why are obsessed with girls?"
Amos looked at his friend with a smirk, "they have soft skin, big boobs, and big booty, I'm the type of man who likes a girl with a big booty."
Gabby couldn't help but blush, she was blessed in the area, and not to mention she also blessed in the chest being a c-cup. She looked at Amos, and noticed he was staring at her and looked away grabbed her smoothie and drinking it avoiding any contact with him.
"That such a shallow answer Amos, I thought you might be the type of guy who likes a girls personality," Angela teased taking a bite of her boyfriend's muffin. She knew that Amos was going to answer that, it was a question she asked him often and he answered the same way all the time.
"What can I say? I like to suck on some nice size breast," Amos smirk sticking his tongue out in a sexual type of way.
Constance crossed her arms, and laughed lightly ,"you shouldn't do that around Angela, her virgin eyes can't take that much sexual active." She always teased Angela about being a virgin, she didn't know why she didn't want to give it up to Michael. "Angela, you sixteen years old sexual active is healthy for girls our ages."
"Just because you want to be a slut doesn't mean Angela wants to," Tyler finally joined into the conversation. He normally wasn't a talkive person, and would only speak to state his opinion or unless spoken too.
"Who do you think your calling a slut?," Constance grabbed a handful of Tyler's hair. "I'll rip your hair out of you head, say that shit again."
"Why are you making such a big deal, you're a slut aren't you?" Amos looked at her with a small smirk, he flinched a bit when she went to attack him.
Gabby grabbed Constance holding her back from attacking Amos, mostly because she'll probably end up kicking her ass if she touched him. "Alright, everyone of you guys need to calm down, let's go back on the party subject and what we should wear to this party," she places her friend down on the chair, and took her original seat as well.
"Should I wear a dress or a short, tight skirt?" Michael joked causing everyone to start laughing. "We really don't have to discuss what we are going to wear, it the beach just throw on a swimsuit and call it a night."

"Ian!" Angela watched her cousin leave the baggage claim with his suitcase coming his way. His little brother and parents were somewhere else behind. "Its been months since I last seen you, have you gotten taller?"
Ian Pickles is Angela's fifteen year old cousin, he stood about 5'11, being four inches taller than Angela who 5'8. He has short purple hair, that he got from his father - Thomas Pickles and honey brown eyes that he inherited from his mother Rachel Alcroft-Pickles. He was dressed in a black shirt that covered a little of his blue skinny jeans, with a blue jean jacket, and black Tim boots.
"I'd like to believe I've gotten taller," Ian answer in a semi deep voice. "Can I get a picture?, I'll be taking a lot of them over the vacation."
Angela looked at the camera that was wrapped around her cousin's neck, she also notice a bag that he was carrying which was probably filled with equipment to film things over the summer. "I don't mind, so I see you're following your father's footsteps, are you going to be a flim director?"
Ian shook his head and placed the bag down gently, "I'm more into photography than film, but I think Matt is taking an interest in filming, his been asking dad a lot of questions abut it." He removed the camera and took a few pictures of his cousin.
Matt Pickles is Ian's younger brother who was younger than him by a year. He was a little chubby around the cheeks with innocent dark green eyes, and light brown hair. His skin was a little paler than his brother, and stood about 5'7.
"Is that right?" Angela smiled a bit, and watched as Tommy, Rachel, and Matt approached her with their things. "Are you guys ready? They are waiting in the car outside," she turned around and walked outside with them following after her. They were staying with them as well, it wasn't like her house was small. Her mother was a famous fashion designer, and her father was a doctor. Their house was anything but small, and it had a ton of guest rooms.
"Angela,do you still have Lou?" Matt asked his cousin while putting his suitcases in the trunk of the car.
"Mhmm, do you want to go out and play with him later? He might as well have some fun before I give him a bath," Angela got into the car and seat in the back with Matt and was her pug,she had him for two years, he was two years old. "So, Ian do you want to go to a party tonight?"
"I want to go to a party," Matt looked over at his older cousin with innocent eyes.
Tommy looked at his younger son, "I don't think so Matt, you are too young to go to any party, your only fourteen years old."
Matt crossed his arms over his chest and pouted, "fine, I didn't want to go anyway." He pulled out his 3DS and started playing his super Mario smash bros. He didn't want to be bother with anything else, and when he gets to Angela's house he was going to play with Lou.
Ian shrugged his shoulders, "I really don't care, I guess I can have a little fun." He pulled out his phone, and started texting his friends from back home. He was only stay there until August 2nd, than him and the rest of his family was going back to Oakland, California. "I'm only here for two months, might as well live a little right?"

There is a reason why I mentioned height, it will be explained in future chapters.
I'm back to writing after a long two month break,the last time I was on was Jan 1st. I didn't expect to be gone for that long, but life just keeps getting in the way, and not everyone has free time, and when I do have free time, I rather do something else other than writing since I don't care much about it anymore, and I have different hobbies that take up most of my time. I just mostly write when I need to reveal stress and that's all.
