Summer
At last I finally get to leave home for once. After Minnesota, I had never been out of Illinois. It took a while, well actually about three days to convince my mom that everything would be alright, but I did cheat. I took advantage of her when she was in one of her manic moments, and she told me to go have fun. I took that as a yes. I packed up my suitcase full of new clothes that I had bought when Susan and I went on a shopping spree to the Chicago Ridge Mall. Its outside of Chicago yeah, but we had stopped there once, after a track meet against Marist High School, and thought it would be a great place to get summer clothes at. It was small, but it had a lot of the stores we liked to shop at, and I had found a lot of cute tank tops, and summer clothing.
Before John came and picked me up, I called Eric's best friend's mother to make sure that she was aware about our Mom. Susan had come to the airport with Mark, to wave goodbye. O'Hare was huge, so many terminals, and airplanes, if they didn't have the signs you would get lost. Our plane boarded maybe ten minutes after we got there. John's mother and father had gotten us all first class tickets, and it was kind of shocking the difference between Middle Class, and First Class. In the plane John and I got to sit next to each other and talk, while his mother and father sat behind us. I kind of felt bad that we didn't get to talk for very long. I got so nauseated as we took off I fell asleep. When I had woken up John too, had fallen asleep, and the plane was starting to land. As we landed John woke up, and smiled at me, I smiled back, not wanting to say anything his parents might take the wrong way.
It was about four in the afternoon by the time we reached the beach house. It was huge. Inside John and I had rooms right next to each other upstairs with a shared patio over looking the ocean. It was amazing, and his parents really seemed to trust us. Before we took out all of our belonging his mother came in and gave us a small talking to though. She told us that we could not be in the same room together with the doors closed, and that we were to act like mature young adults. We agreed, it wouldn't be to hard, I mean we had a whole beach to ourselves. After we had finished unpacking, John had walked in to my room. He had on his swim suit, well surf shorts. All that working out in the gym had really paid off. I couldn't keep my eyes off of him. He asked me if I wanted to go for a walk with him on the beach. I nodded, and told him I just had to change. John nodded, and told me that he would be in his room when I was done.
I pulled out a hot pink tank top. Yeah, it definetly was not my favorite color, but it went well with my hair. I put on a white shirt, the ones that ruffle. The outfit went well together, I really should thank Susan for matching all of my clothes. I could never do that. I pulled my hair out of its pony tail, and let it fall down to my shoulders. I walked out of my room, and walked over to John's. We walked out of the house, and out onto the beach. The ocean was so beautiful, the water was crystal clear. As we walked we got closer and closer towards the water, and then I saw a grin appear on John's face. I told him not to even think about it because if he did, I would make the rest of the summer a living hell. Before I knew it he had picked me up, and was carrying me out into the ocean with him. I thought the water would be cold, but it wasn't, and it was kind of fun. Making out in the ocean was ten maybe twenty times more fun than in a pool. We didn't stop playing around until the sun was setting. When we walked back in giggling John's father was holding two towels, and told us that next time we decide to go on a walk we should bring some with just in case. He winked, and walked back into the house. John and I walked back into our rooms and changed into some dry clothes. I again picked out another marvelously matched outfit via Susan, and we walked to the kitchen where we had heard John's mother yelling for us to come and eat.
