Chapter 7- Flashback!
NINA'S POV
I ran into the sea as the surfer got closer, yelling and waving my arms, smiling.
"Nina, do you know the 'hottie' as your sisters would say?" Amber asked, still not getting it. The surfer, in a black rash guard and black beach shorts.
"Amber, we all know him!" I said, yelling some more. I made a heart with my hands and held it to my eye. Amber looked from me, to the surfer, to me again, then back to the surfer.
"OHMIGOSH!" She shrieked. I nodded, kicking off my flip flops and shorts and tossing off my sunglasses.
"What are you two yelling about?" Jerome asked, looking at us with one eye and watching the perfect waves with the other. "Do you know him?"
"Jerome," I said, trying to be calm but Amber shrieked, "It's Fabian!" He looked shocked, looking at the surfer, to us, then back to the surfer.
"Wait!" Mick said, running over with Mara and Patricia on his heels, "The surfer is who?"
"Fabian!" I said then I dived into the sea, the wave had ended and I was planning on talking to my 'hottie' boyfriend of mine.
As I came up for air, I heard Patricia scream, "FABIAN!"
I dove back into the sea and popped my head right in front of Fabian's board.
"Hey, Nina." He smiled, helping me sit on his board. Fabian looked back at the shore to see; Amber screaming and jumping around, and everyone else with their mouths open.
"You never told me up could surf!" I said, pushing my damp hair out of my face.
"Why? Want to learn?" He asked, rising his eye brows.
"Nah, I surfed in New York all the time." I said, smiling up at him. He smiled back, or course.
"NO WAY!" Amber's voice rang out like a bell. "I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT!"
"Believe what?" Fabian asked, confused.
"Really?" I asked, rolling my eyes, "They all can't believe you surf."
"I guess they wouldn't believe I drive a motorcycle too?"
I laughed, "No, and if you do, Amber might die of a heart attack."
Fabian laughed, "Might as well go back to the shore, Amber might dive and kill herself." I nodded, slipping off the board with Fabian and started kicking.
AMBER'S POV
Fabian… Surfs?
What is happening? Fabian is the geek, who like Nina and plays the guitar.
How can he surf?
Is he less of a geek than I thought? I know he has some pretty tough looking cousins that live in New York, but that's really his only relatives that I can think of.
*FLASH BACK*
(One Year Earlier…)
There was a loud knock on the door, it was just after super and we were all laughing on the couch.
"I got it!" Fabian called, getting up from the couch and walking to the door.
"Hey cous!" A deep male voice said, he had some sort of accent. American.
"Fabe!" A female voice said, American accent as well and a smile in her voice.
"What are you two doing here?" Fabian asked, his voice was full of confusion and shock.
"Can't we see our only cousin?" the female asked, joking.
"You can,"
"Can we come in?" The male asked, "Or do you think we'll scare your house mates?"
We were all dead quiet, trying to figure out who was visiting Fabian. There was some heavy footstep and I saw two people follow closely behind Fabian. They were both brunettes.
The male was about 16, he was muscular and had a dark feel to him. It didn't help that he was in a tight white tee shirt, worn leather jacket, biker boots, and black skinny jeans.
The girl had a smile on her face older about the same age as the male. She was in a black elbow-length tee shirt black boots, and dark faded blue jeans. Her long hair was in a series of ringlets and black sunglasses hid her expressions.
We all stared at Fabian's cousins. They looked nothing like him. If I didn't hear the conversation, I might have thought they were here to kidnap us all.
"Guys, I'd like you to meet my cousins, Lexi and Taylor." Fabian said.
"Nice to meet you," Mick said, the rest followed. Mick was the only one who wasn't freaking out on the inside. He walked up, pulling me with him. "Hey, the name is Mick."
"Amber," I said, so relived my voice wasn't shaking. We shook their hands and it didn't help me feel much better since both of them had biker gloves on.
"Nice to meet you." Lexi said, smiling. She pulled off her sunglasses and slid them on the top of her head.
"Guys, I promise, my cousins won't hurt you." Fabian said, seeing the others reactions. The rest of the house introduced themselves, Jerome and Alfie were nervous because they'd play a prank to Fabian that morning.
"Well, cous, I see you took a bike." Fabian said, turning away from us and addressing his cousins.
"Yep, almost got myself in a wreck." Taylor said, smiling at his cousin.
"Yeah, he thought he could drive here, lucky I was on the same bike as him or he would have gotten himself killed." Lexi added, hitting her brother.
"Not my fault! They all drive on the wrong side of the road!" Taylor said, hitting his sister on the shoulder, I might have gasped if I had the guts.
"It's the right side here and the wrong side where you're from." Fabian corrected.
"Yeah, yeah, your dad almost killed me, since it's his bike I'm borrowing right now."
"Yeah, Fabian it's not fun seeing your dad yell at all." Lexi said, shaking her head.
"So wanna take her for a-" Taylor started but Lexi hit her brother hard on the shoulder.
"You moron! He can't take it a ride here!"
"He couldn't take it a ride at our place, or anywhere, why should he stop here?"
Lexi tilted her head the slightest bit towards us. "Do you get it now?" Lexi asked, she was probably wanting to scream at her brother. Her blue eyes dangerously bright.
"Right, right." Taylor said, which earned a eye roll from Lexi.
"Moron."
"Well at least I-"
Fabian pushed his cousins back to the doors, they walked towards it, glaring at each other.
"You coming this weekend?" Taylor asked, as Fabian got them to the doors.
"Yeah, and I'll beat you like last time." Fabian said, taking his hands off his cousins backs and holding the door, prepared to shut it.
"Don't get cocky little cous." Taylor threatened.
"Yeah, I wouldn't dream of it." Fabian said, sarcasm in his voice. Taylor rolled his eyes, Lexi slid her sunglasses back on and hugged Fabian.
"See ya Fabe!" She waved goodbye and started walking out to the bike.
"Hey, I'm driving!" Taylor said, running after her.
"Over my dead body!" Lexi called.
"That can be arranged!"
"Don't kill yourselves." Fabian called, as his cousins got on the motorcycle.
"Can't promise, Taylor's driving!" Lexi said, pulling off her sunglasses and putting on a helmet with dark glass over the eyes, Taylor pulled one like it on too.
Fabian closed the door and walked back to us, every single one of us, confused and shocked…
*END OF FLASHBACK*
I wonder what Fabian did that weekend. Did he drive a motorcycle around, or was he joking? What is Fabian really?
