Part 2

Nikki Westerly was hanging out at Jay's surf shop waiting on her friend Cameron. She was relieved when he finally got there. Another minute of Erica whining to Jay about how Bradin had basically ignored her earlier and Nikki was gonna fall asleep.

"What took you so long?" Nikki questioned.

Cameron was clearly confused. "I thought you wanted me here at 11:30. It's only 11."

"I said 10:30. So we could get to the beach before it gets to crowded." Nikki felt like she shouldn't have to defend herself.

Cameron just looked down. "Oh. Sorry."

Nikki could see that he felt like a retard. "It's okay. I can let it slide this time."

Nikki couldn't stand the fact that she had a huge crush on Cameron. She didn't think that he felt the same way, but he did. He was upset that he couldn't tell her how he felt. After about 15 awkard minutes at the beach, she couldn't take it any longer.

"Cameron, I like you. I'm tired of hiding my feelings."

Cameron was shocked. She actually felt the same way about him as he felt about her.

Nikki was getting kind of nervous now. "Your not saying anything. That can't be good."

"No. I'm just shocked." Cameron said. He then continued after a short pause, "I feel the same way about you. I was just afraid to tell you."

Nikki was estacic about this. "Oh. Well in that case, you want to go out to dinner with me tonight?"

"Sure," Cameron said trying to hide his excitement.

Nikki then asked, "Pick me up at 7?"

"Sure." Cameron was then smiling from ear to ear.

She then gathered her things from the beach and headed off toward her house. She never really called it home. She knew home was with her parents, in Kansas.

Meanwhile, Bradin was still surfing. He had been surfing since around 7. Now, though, Jay had joined him.

"Bradin, do you think we could head towards the beach?"

Bradin was confused by this. "Why?"

"I need to talk to you about something." After Jay said this, he could tell Bradin knew what was going on.

"If it's about Erica, I'm over her. Like I told her this morning, there is nothing to talk about." Bradin was angry that everyone was trying to get in his business.

Jay knew he was lying, but if this was how he was gonna deal with the whole situation, he decided not to bother him about it.

Bradin then said, "Lets head in anyway. I'm starving."
