Heath
Scrolling through a folder on his laptop, Heath Carroll paused when he realised what the folder was labelled. 'November 2005'. Hundreds of photos of Blue Water, and the kids he had shared a house- a life- with.
He saw Bec Sanderson running down the beach, splashing into the water, Dean Edgely glaring at him over a bowl of cereal, and Perri Lawe brushing her teeth in the mirror, crossing her eyes at him. Fly Watson was kissing his cheek, Matt Leyland was steering the ducky, and Anna Peterson was dancing like a lunatic to the German hip hop blasting through her headphones.
He had lived with them, went to school with them, trained with them, and surfed with them. As an only child, he took the opportunity to have the two brothers and four sisters. The year he spent at Solar Blue was definitely the best in his life, and he had loved almost every moment of it. He had fallen for the gorgeous Fly, tease his roommates, nicknamed every single one of them, and hauled himself out of bed at ungodly hours for training.
"Whoa", he murmured, as he skipped to the photos from June. All the photos taken at Fly's birthday bash at the beach, all the photos taken at Fly's extremely out of control birthday party at the house.
It was the first time he had kissed the little blonde beauty and the night was permanently etched into his memory. There were so many memories he had, so many memories he had captured with his camera.
"Don't you point that thing at me, Heath!"
"I'm capturing the true Solar Blue student, Bec! It's gonna be soooooo cool!"
"Put the camera down for half a second!"
He exited the folder named 'June 2005', and opened the one labelled 'December 2005'. Towards the end of the photos was the video he had made, a montage of him and his friends during the year. It was played at their announcement night, and the others had been in awe that he pulled it off.
The video was a complication of the entire Solar Blue clan, throughout the year. he had a video camera permanently glued to his hand, and had captured some amazing shots. He had also captured all the life of the Solar Blue Surf Academy.
There were pictures from their competitions, videos of them studying for their yearly exams and the kids mucking around on the grass outside. There were shots from training, as they powered along the sand, and shots from the mini triathlon they competed in.
The video had captured all seven Solar Blue students perfectly.
"It was so long ago", he murmured, as he watched Anna and Fly giggle while Matt, Edge and Bec tried desperately hard to guess the drawing during a particularly tough game of Pictionary.
