Here's beautiful chapter 2! A lot of nothingness, I know. But it's a bit funny, I think. Have fun! :-)
Discalaimer: I don't own Hannah Montana or the Jonas Brothers! How cool would it be if I did though...?!
Nick,
You have officially saved me from zombie-ness for at least another day. I am forever grateful. :D
You know, it's really great that you and your life are both good. I'm glad for you. I'm good too, and I think my summer's about to get a bit better now that I have someone I can talk- excuse me- write to.
Wow, three brothers in a band. That rings a bell…too bad I can't tell where the bell's ringing from. Haha. Yeah, that wasn't funny, but hey. That's really cool though, that you're in a band. What kind of music do you play?
Hey, I have an interesting story to tell you. It's about what I did this morning. So, I was sitting at my desk, thinking about nothing (which I do a lot), but not in a zombie-like state- we've already covered that you've saved me from being a zombie for now. So, I picked up a bright orange plastic ruler that I used in like, third grade, and unconsciously began slapping my cheeks with it. Yes, I am a huge freak (Oh, so now we're both freaks so it's totally fine with me that you like Hannah Montana and dressing up. It's all good). I discovered that it didn't really hurt, it just felt weird. Yeah, I dunno what's wrong with me, and if you think I'm a loser that's ok…
So. I think I'm going to have to go down to the beach later and just hang out and sit in the sand because it's a really nice day today. I might even be compelled to speak to Miley's older brother Jackson, who works at this cabana thing on the beach. Or Rico, the annoying kid the place is named after. Man, I really need to get into an activity…. I mean, writing to you is good, but it doesn't take up my whole day, like other things would. No offense or anything, especially if it takes you a whole day to write a letter.
Haha! Just kidding. Wow, I'm beginning to scare myself.
As I sit here writing this letter to you, Nick, I'm eating an apple. I don't know why you would want to know that, but I told you anyway. I'm thinking about what you might want to know about me. Hm. Well, you'll have to tell me what you want to know. I'm going to make a list about what I know about you, and then what I want to know. Just for fun and to get us talking- cough- writing. Hopefully it won't sound too stalker-ish. If it is, I apologize.
General Things I know About Pen Pal Nick
1. Has a really good life he's enjoying.
2. Is polite. (ex. "How about you?")
3. Was not born in New Jersey.
4. Has a large family that travels a lot.
5. Is homeschooled.
6. Likes Hannah Montana and dressing up in "drasual" clothes and thinks Lilly thinks he's a freak for it which he most certainly is not.
7. Best friends are brothers he's in a band with.
8. Is so far, a nice pen pal that prevents Lilly from being a zombie.
So, Nick, what inspires you? I don't know why I came up with that, but I think it's a good question. Where are you writing from (in the letter you write back. Supposing you write a letter back…)? What's your favorite color? And….. do you like looking at the stars on clear nights? Oh, yeah, and you said you were traveling. Are you in an RV?
Okay. I'm going to the beach. I hope you are having fun wherever you are, and please write back soon!!
Love,
Your freak of a pen pal friend,
Lilly
When Lilly finished she smiled to herself. This was more fun than she thought it would be. She was only on her second letter, but knew this was going to be great. She quickly put the letter in an envelope, addressed and put a stamp on it, then gathered her things for the beach. She skipped down the stairs happily, but almost ran in to her mother.
"Where are you going, Lilly? Hot date?" She asked with a smile.
Lilly laughed internally. Yeah, totally hot date with Rico and Jackson, she thought. "No. Post office then beach. It's a nice day."
Her mom nodded. "Okay, have fun. Just be back before six, okay?" She was glad Lilly was doing something more than moping around her bedroom.
"'Kay, Mom. Love you, bye!" Lilly quickly pecked her mom on the cheek and ran out the door.
Nick tried not to yawn as he sat down in the dim light. He was eating popcorn, a favorite late night snack. He'd just finished a crazy amazing concert with Joe and Kevin. But he had just one more thing to do before he turned in for the night...
My dear pen pal friend Lilly,
I'm very glad to be saving you from your zombie-ness. I'm glad I have someone new to write to, too.
My brothers and I play kind of pop/rock songs. Nothing special.
Hey, don't hurt yourself with that ruler.
Wow. I really am jealous that you can just go to the beach whenever. That must be so awesome.
Lilly! I'm eating popcorn! Yeah, I thought you might want to know since you were eating an apple… Some things I want to know about you? I want to know the same things you want to know about me, and I'll think of some more later. That's a nice list you have written. Here, I'll answer your questions and then ask you some of my own.
What inspires me? People inspire me. Just everyday. I look at people and am inspired. No kidding.
Right now, I'm writing from Arizona. Actually and I think we might be on our way to California... Anyway, it's pretty hot. Even though it's like 1 in the morning. Even inside this thing. Yeah, it's like a super-big RV… Hey, you might be wondering why I'm writing to you at 1 in the morning. Well, we had a late night tonight. Stayed up partying. Actually, we do most nights, and I like writing after the wild partying. It's calming in a weird sort of way I guess…
My favorite color is blue. I just like that color.
I love looking at the stars on clear nights. They're amazing.
Now, I want you to answer those questions. And tell me something funny your mom doesn't know about you. Yes, I know that's totally weird, but it's definitely something to write about. My older brother once asked someone that and they became, like, best friends. I thought it would be fun to try.
Wow. All of a sudden I'm so tired. I guess that wild partying caught up with me
Oh, hey good morning! Haha. I fell asleep on your letter, so that might be why it's all crinkled up. Sorry.
Anyway, I hope you had fun at the beach with Jackson and Rico!
Your turn to write back!! :-)
Love,
Your crazy partying, falling asleep in random places pen pal,
Nick
Lilly read the letter and giggled. Something her own mom didn't know about her? Her mom knew just about everything…. Oh, I got a good one, she thought.
Yeah, I was eating an apple and popcorn and slapping myself with a ruler while I wrote this, just in case you were wondering where those came from... Haha! Yeah, I think the next chapter will be great. Get ready for some excitement!! I really hope you liked it!! Please review, because, like I said before, I will freaking love you forever if you do that. So, thank you thank you for reading!! :-)
