Chapter 12

Two weeks before Spring break my mother surprised me with a reservation at the Super 8 located on the beach, I was so happy I threw my arm around her "THANK YOU!" I cheered giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"Just promise me you won't do anything stupid," she said looking me straight in the eye

"Promise," I replied seriously "you can trust me."

She smiled as she brought me into a hug "Always good to hear."

Another week came and went leaving only one left, now I was really starting to get excited and what the best way for a girl to ready for a trip? GO SHOPPING! "Where are you going?" Holly asked from the sofa

"To the mall," I replied grabbing my purse "you wanna come?"

"OKAY!" she said happily "Could we get some pizza there?"

"Sure," I shrugged "just go let your mother know you're going with me."

She hopped off the sofa and rushed into the kitchen "Can I go with Destiny to the mall?"

I heard Aunt Nina say "Okay."

"She said yes," she said as she skipped back into the living room .

I spent at least three hours shopping for seven outfits and when I was done I decided to get my hair done which took a couple hours to get rid of all the frizz. Before returning home Holly and I had a slice of pizza and a coke. "Your hair looks really pretty," she said as we sat down to eat our food.

"Thank you," I replied combing my fingers through the now soft silky smooth straightened hair "I hope he likes it."

"Who?" she asked "Jack?"

"No," I told her "someone else."

"But I thought you liked Jack?"

"I do," I explained "but we're just friends."

The day of departure came and I was rushing around the room making sure I had everything packed that I wanted to take. "Okay that's everything," I told myself getting ready to exit the room when I noticed I was missing something "my ring," I said rushing over to the dresser to get it. Jack was already down stairs waiting for me "Took you long enough," he teased as I came down the stairs.

"Whatever," I replied rolling my eyes.

"Okay Des," my mother said entering the room "here is a pre-paid credit card."

"Thanks," I said "but for what?"

She smiled "Just in case you run out of cash."

We gave each other a hug and a kiss as we said our goodbyes for the week "Call me as soon as you get there," she said walking with us to the car. "I will," I told her "I love you."

"Love you, too" she replied kissing me one more time.

As soon as we got into the car I pulled out my new pair of sun glasses then turned to Jack "You ready?"

He sighed and replied "As I'll ever be."

"Ah come on Jack," I said playfully "we're going away for a week to have fun."

"Whatever you say."

I gave my mom one last wave before pulling away "Jack did I ever tell you that you are my best friend in the world," I started to playfully sing "and I hope that you know that when we hang out it's freakin' awasome."

He tried to hide his smile but I knew it was there "So what are we going to do when we get there?"

I smiled "How about we build a fort out of the bed sheets,"

"What?" he laughed

"Then later we can build a bonfire on the beach,"

"Okay," he shrugged "why did you change your hair any way?"

"You like it?" I asked

"It's nice but..."

"I really hope Bruce will notice it," I said happily

He just rolled his eyes "Yeah because it really matters to him."

"What do you have against him?" I asked

"One he's a rich Prick and two well he's just not your type,"

"MY TYPE!" I said raising my voice "AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT MY TYPE!"

"Forget it," he said turning away from me and laid his head against the window.

I felt really bad for our stupid argument after a while "I'm sorry," I whispered

He smiled slightly "Me, too."

XOXOXO

After arriving in Seaside City we got a quick bite to eat before going to check it to the motel. "Can I help you?" the front dest personal asked

"Checking in," I replied

"Name?"

"Martin," I replied

She typed it in "We have a room for a Ms. Destiny Martin booked by Mrs. Pamela Martin is this correct?"

"Yes it is,"

"Do you have an ID?"

"Yeah," I said pulling out my wallet and handing her the card

She smiled "Thank you Ms. Martin, would you like one or two keys?"

"Two," Jack and I said at the same time

"Sure," she said preparing two key cards and then handing them to us "there you go and it's room 317."

"Thank you," I replied

Upstairs Jack found it funny when the key refused to work for me and only for him, our room had two double beds with tacky floral print bed spreads, a small kitchenette and a beautiful view of the parking lot.

"Now that's one hell of a view," he joked

"Yeah it is," I joked back "let's go for a walk on the boardwalk."

We took our time walking on the boardwalk stopping to play a few arcade games and to get a funnel cake to share. The boardwalk was huge it even had a small amusement park on it which we would go to another day, for now we were just enjoying our company...
