Chapter 3
Paint This Town Red
Caitie smiled as Val rose from her bed. Jamie had asked her out. She couldn't believe it. And
being in Key West made it even better.
"What are you all smiley about?" Val asked groggily. She may have been a perky cheerleader but
before 7:00 she was down right scary.
"Jamie asked me out last night! I didn't sleep at all. I've been sitting up since midnight! I feel
like I'm flying, soaring like an eagle. I'm on top of the world!" Caitie shouted, jumping on her
bed.
"Ugh! Stop! Please! You're so loud." Val cried as she groped for the door handle. She shot a last
glance at Caitie before disappearing into the bathroom. Caitie grinned and flew from the bed. She
had never felt this alive!
Miss Stevens glared at Caitie as she walked out. She gripped her coffee and rubbed her eyes.
"You seem awfully excited for a girl who is about to spend the day at an aquarium."
"Ha! You don't know the half of it!" Caitie explained as she grabbed her purse. "I feel like I could
jog around the world this very second, and never get tired."
"Funny. You're little friend Jamie was excited this morning too. Put some of that energy into sea
creature gazing." Miss Stevens said. "Jamie, Tyler and Val! Front and center. We are supposed to
be at the Key West Aquairum by 8:00. We've got 15 minutes so let's hussle."
The group took off for the aquarium. Val and Tyler stared at Jamie and Caitie as they held hands.
They had never seen such an interesting place. The people here were alot different from everyone
in Kingsport. Shops and tourist traps line the street. It was like a whole new world to the group.
The aquarium was about a ten minute walk from the place they were staying. The aquarium was very
cool. Mr. Simms gathered the group together.
"Okay everyone. We'll be touring this place till 1:30 and then you are all free to go where ever
you'd like afterwards. With your chaperoans of course." The students groan.
They walked around the aquarium. They all got to pet the sharks and see the different kinds of fish.
1:30 came quickly and they all went their seperate ways. Caitie, Val, Tyler and Jamie, with Miss
Stevens in tow, headed for the Hemingway House. Caitie was really excited about going there. It
had been a goal for her since she was little.
Their tour guides name was Jack and he was really nice. Everyone thought the place was really
incredible. The gardens were Caitie's favorite part. The cats were Jamie's.
"Alright everyone!" Miss Stevens called everyone to attention, "Where to next?" The five compared
ideas.
"How about some more shopping?" Val suggested.
"No!" was the response.
"How about the Southern Most Point?" Tyler prepared to be shot down with rude comments. He was
surprised when everyone agreed.
They decided it would be too far a walk. Miss Stevens decided they should rent scooters.
"Gosh, these are expensive!" Miss Stevens cried. So then it was decided that 2 per bike, except
Miss S. So Tyler and Val paired up and of course, Jamie and Caitie. As they sped off toward the
land marker, Caitie said to Jamie, "I'm glad I've got the expert." Jamie smiled.
The Point was a monument of the trip. They all took cheesy pictures and some really nice ones. By
the time they got back to the hotel, it was 4:00. Everyone was pretty tired and took naps. When
everyone woke up, it was 5:30.
"Well bunch, let's grab some food so we don't miss the sunset!" Miss Stevens cried. The place they
picked to eat was Blue Heaven, a very cool place. It had indoor and outdoor seating. They
chose outdoor. After they were seated, Caitie took a look around. It looked like someone had
turned their backyard into a restuarant. Val couldn't be loving it more either. The place was
so comfortable and open, it was like a big barbeque.
"This food is amazing!" Caitie cried as she dug into her lobster and thought to herself,'The
company is even better.' Being surrounded by her friends and Jamie made the dinner almost magical.
While they were at the restuarant, Miss Stevens ran into an old friend and, taking the teenager's
advice, went out for a drink with him.
"We'll be fine." Val insisted.
"Go. We will meet you back at the hotel by midnight." Tyler promised. Miss Stevens agreed and was
gone, never even turning back. They all gave each other high-fives and headed to the beach.
The sun was painting the sky a beautiful orange, the water reflecting the gorgeous colors. Caitie
and Val pulled off their shoes, throwing them down without a care in the world. The feeling was
special and romantic. Caitie grabbed Jamie's hand as they strolled down the wet beach.
"This place is so...incredible. It couldn't be better." Caitie whispered, smiling up at Jamie.
"Yeah, I know." The couple sat down and gazed at the orange ball sinking below the waves. Caitie
sighed. It was perfect.
