Summer Romance - Chapter 2

Dear Diary
I had only came here yesterday and it was already the best vacation of all time. When I got here yesterday I thought it would just be another vacation that I would spend with my mom and not interact with people my age, like always. Gosh was I wrong. I had met the amazing boy ever! His name is Troy Bolton and he is so gorgeous, he has the most amazing blue eyes, he has this blonde shaggy hair that flops around on his face… and his body… he was the definition of the American Boy.

We had got talking and he said that he was the basketball captain at his high school in New Mexico and he had been voted MVP for two seasons in a row. He wasn't just got at basketball though, he was also amazing at swimming! Yesterday whilst in the water he showed off his amazing water skills, he had raced his friend Chad and you could tell that Troy was the most fastest and strongest swimmer out of the two of them.

Me and Troy had made plans to meet up today to hang out, we had invited Chad but he said that he wanted to hang out in the gym today as he hadn't worked out in a couple weeks. Troy said to meet him at the beach and there we would hang out and Troy said that he had a surprise for me and I was totally excited to find out what it was.

After putting my diary back I looked at the clock and saw that I had 10 minutes before I was due to meet Troy at the beach so I grabbed my bag and made sure I had everything I needed before saying goodbye to my mom and leaving the room. I called for the elevator and got in hitting the ground floor, once there I exited the elevator and walked out the back and headed onto the beach where I started walking to where I had met Troy yesterday.

When I reached Troy I greeted him with a hug and then he pointed down to the two surf boards laying on the sand "I am going to teach your to surf, even if it kills me" He stated making me laugh.

"I hope your patient" I said and took sundress off revealing the bikini I had on underneath, I looked up at Troy and saw him checking me out making me embarrassed and smile at the same time. I cleared my throat and he indicated to lay down on one of the surf boards "Most people surf in water" I said to him with a chuckle.

"Before we go in the water I've gotta show you how to stand up" He explained and I laid down on the spare board. Troy also laid down on his board and he started showing what I had to do and how I needed to stand up in the water, we did this for about half an hour before Troy said that I was finally time go into the water and test out what he had taught me "You think you're ready?"

"Nope" I said nervously as I looked at the waves going my way.

After falling off a few times I finally managed to stand up and ride a wave! It was the best feeling in the world and seeing the proud look on Troy's face made it all worth while. I didn't want to let him down and make a fool of myself in front of him so when I got that first wave I was more happy that I hadn't made a fool of myself in front of him. The water calmed down so I just sat on the board and Troy paddled over to me with a huge smile on my face "What'd ya think?" I asked him as he reached me.

"You're a natural!" He exclaimed.

"Thanks" I replied.

"Wanna head in and relax on the beach for a little bit?" He asked.

When we got in we went to our little spot as I referred to it where my bag was still sitting there thankfully still with all it's contents. I laid down the surf board next to Troy's then got my towel out and laid it down on the sand and sat down on it, Troy did the same with his towel. I reached into my bag and got out my sunscreen "Do you mind?" I questioned.

"Not at all" He said and did my back for me. Like yesterday his big soft hands rubbed themselves over my back with the sunscreen and I couldn't help but smile. His hands felt great and I felt him run his hands down my sides and run their way up to my shoulders and around my collar bone before leaving his hands there for a few seconds before saying that he was done. I laid down on my towel and Troy laid down but on his side so he was facing me leaning on his elbow "I'm glad that we met" Troy stated.

I turned onto my side and smiled at Troy "Me too" I said to him.

"I am really having a good time with you, I'm having so much fun" He told me.

"I agree. This is by one of the best vacations already, normally it's just me and mom. Don't get me wrong I love her but I don't really interact with people my own age when on vacation" I explained.

"How about me and you go out somewhere tonight, for dinner" He suggested.

"Like a date?" I questioned in surprise.

"Yeah… a date" He agreed.

"Sounds great" I said.

"I was so nervous to ask you out" He said laughing.

"Why?" I asked.

"Cause your… you. Your beautiful and smart and funny… I just… I dunno" He said with a shrug of his shoulders.

"Well I'm glad that you did ask me out, I can't deny I have a crush on you" I said laughing in embarrassment.

"It's crazy that we've really only known each other twenty four hours and we're going out on a date and we have a crush on each other…" He commented.

After sitting on the beach for another half an hour I was so hot and needed to cool down so I stood up and asked Troy if he wanted to join me in the sea. The two of us went down to the waters edge and then out of no where Troy picked me up and threw me over his shoulder before walking into the water with me. I was laughing and he dumped me in the water, when I came up from the water I gasped at him and splashed water at him.

Troy started to come towards me and I turned to get away from him laughing but I didn't get very far before his arms wrapped around my waist and he lifted me up. I started laughing again harder and he spun me around before putting me down, I turned to face him and the two of us were laughing so hard at our childishness. We stopped laughing and stood there for a second just staring at each other. He took a step closer to me and I took a step closer to him. His hands went to my waist and I wrapped my arms around his neck and he dipped his head until he was just an inch away from mine. I leaned up closing the gap and kissed him.

The kiss wasn't long, rough or needed. It was just a short, sweet and loving kiss that lasted only seconds. We pulled away from the kiss and smiled at each other "Wasn't expecting that" He said.

"Me either" I breathed.

"Still… I'm glad it happened" He stated.

"Me too" I said and smiled "This day has had a lot of surprises" I told him.

Me and Troy spent another couple of hours at the beach, talking, laughing, taking photos, surfing, swimming and stealing sweet kisses here and there. Eventually I decided that I should go and make sure that my mom was ok as I hadn't spent much time with her on this vacation so far. Troy said he would walk me back and he even carried my bag for me which was sweet, he walked me to my room and placed a kiss on my cheek promising me that he would meet me later for our date to dinner.

Dear Diary
I had such an amazing day so far and it was only 2pm! I had met Troy at the beach and he had taught me how to surf. When I stood up on the board and caught my first wave I felt free and amazing! Then I looked over at Troy and saw he was proud of me and it felt awesome. We had surfed for a little while and then we went and sunbathed for a little bit, whilst we were laying on the beach Troy asked me out on a date tonight! I confessed that I had a crush on him and he revealed that he had been nervous to ask me out.

Not only was it an amazing day because Troy had asked me out on a date but we had shared a sweet short kiss. His lips were so soft and perfect, everything about him is perfect. I cannot believe that I was going on a date with such a great, kind, sweet, genuine and amazing guy on my second day of vacation… yeah I know it all seems quick but we only two weeks so we had to make every hour, minute and second count.

For the rest of the afternoon I spent time with my mom and the two of hung out by the pool and we took a look around the local area, we took some pictures and we had some amazing mother/daughter bonding time. We had some late lunch but only something small as I wanted to wait until dinner as I knew Troy had something good planned, Troy was the sort of person to give a girl the most amazing first date ever.

Honestly it was hard to believe that a guy like Troy didn't have a girlfriend already, guys like Troy normally have a pretty blonde cheerleader girlfriend who has a convertible car and loves shopping with her friends. I know that sounds very stereotypical of me but I can't imagine Troy with someone like me, a nerd. If Troy knew about my nerd status I bet you he would never give me a second look and I wouldn't blame him.

When me and mom returned from our bonding time I decided to jump in the shower and start getting ready for my date. I only had a quick shower because I knew I was going to need to spend a lot of time getting ready, I didn't have a clue what I was going to wear and I needed to sort my hair and make up out as well. Mom thought that I was hilarious running around like a headless chicken to try and find something to wear.

Eventually I found something! A floral patterned playsuit and after much debate with myself I decided to put on my sandals instead of my heels. I put my hair up in a doughnut and did my make up light as I didn't need much foundation because of my tanned skin tone anyway, I did my mascara and my lip gloss before grabbing a bag which I put all my essentials in; some money, lip gloss, phone, camera.

At 6pm on the dot the door to our room knocked loud and I looked at my mom with wide eyes and she smiled at me and went into the bedroom of our suite. I took a deep breath before going to the door, I opened it and saw Troy standing on the other side looking great… as usual. He had on a white t-shirt, a pair of blue shorts and white Toms. His hair was it's normal floppy self and I smiled at him "You look great" He said hugging me.
