Ok so I'm not sure if I'm going to continue or not yet, but I don't think I wrote enough in the first chapter to persuade. So I hope I will find out after this chapter!
"Yay were here!" Alli exclaimed as she jumped on the bed in the room which would be hers for the next 6 weeks, a view of the gorgeous Malibu Beach.
"Come on! My driving wasn't that bad!" Jenna laughed as she flopped onto the bed next to Alli.
Alli laughed, "It wasn't your driving that sucked; it was the anticipation of getting here!"
"Ok, I'll agree with you on that one! I say, we unpack, and then we spend the day on the beach working on our tans."
"Oh all right! You twisted my arm!" Alli laughed as she opened her suitcase to begin putting the contents into the drawers
Alli began to think about what the next 6 weeks had in store for her.
She could meet a cute local who would take her to the beach, where they would spend the day laying in the sun and going swimming every so often to cool down.
She could meet an out-of-towner like herself who would take her to fancy restaurants and treat her like a princess.
Or she could play the field. She could go to the beach, and end up talking to some nice guys, or she could go to clubs and beach parties and dance the night away with some hottie's.
Either way, she was excited and ready for anything.
After she put on the skimpy back bikini Jenna had made her buy, she began to lose her confidence. She felt like she was going to the beach in no more than her underwear.
"Jenna, I don't think I can do this… I look like I lost my way to the stripper pole."
"Of hush Alli you look amazing. The moment the guys start admiring you, you won't even remember why you were nervous. Trust me. Besides, Degrassi Alli isn't here remember? She's still in Toronto doing her homework."
Alli laughed slightly before turning to look at the mirror again. She sighed and had one last overall inspection.
"I guess you're right Jen."
"I'm always right. Now get your ass outside! Were spending the day at the beach!" Jenna cheered as she pushed Alli out the front door.
"Isn't this amazing? The sun, the surf… the talent…" Jenna drifted off as she saw yet another shirtless guy.
Alli laughed and turned her head so she could see Jenna propped up on her elbows almost drooling.
"You have a boyfriend Jen. Remember K.C.?"
"Yeah I remember him. And he's probably at the mall with Torres being a wingman as we speak. Besides, I'm just looking."
"Uh huh," Alli laughed again as she too began to have a look around. Jenna was right. There sure was some good talent out today
Out the corner of her eye, Alli saw a figure getting closer and closer
"Jenna…" she whispered, suddenly scared
"Sexy and confident. Old Alli isn't here remember?"
She said as she stood up and walked to the ocean
"Hey" the boy said once he was closer
"Hey"
"Do you mind if I sit?"
"Go for it" Alli said as she sat up properly
"I'm Owen"
"Alli"
"That's a really pretty name"
"Thank you" she smiled at him, knowing very well he didn't care what her name was.
"So are you here on summer vacation?"
"Yeah, me and my friend came down this morning. What about you?"
"I'm a local I live about a 5 minute walk that-a-way" he said as he pointed down the beach
"Surfer?"
"Of course" he laughed
Alli had been able to tell that before he had even sat down. His outfit was very 'surfer guy'. Board shorts and no shirt. And from his tan, she could tell this was the outfit he usually wore. He had those washboard abs only surfers get and his hair was dark, wind blown and had that look you get when your hair dries after a swim in the ocean
"Are you and your friend doing anything tonight?"
"Not that I know of."
"Well there's a club down the road that I'm gonna be at tonight. Do you wanna catch up for a drink?"
"Yeah I'd like that" she smiled at him
"Cool, well I'll see you there I guess" he said looking rather pleased with himself as he stood up
"Yeah, bye" she smiled as she lay back down on the warm sand
"Jenna hurry up! I wanna go!"
"Does this have anything to do with cute surfer boy?"
"His name is Owen. And of course it is!"
"Just remember Alls, he wont be the only one this summer, so pace yourself"
"Yeah yeah" Alli laughed
The one item Alli was thankful that Jenna had made her buy was the dress she was wearing tonight. It was the ultimate 'little black dress' and was the one Alli had been trying to imagine herself in for months. She was glad she had finally found it.
"Wow Alli. See I told you buying that dress was a good thing!"
"Yes, you were right. I was wrong. Blah blah. Can we go now?"
"Hang on. Put these on" she said handing Alli a pair of strappy black heels, "and take your hair down"
Alli put the shoes on and pulled the hair tie from her hair, brushing it with her fingers and shaking it out so the curls fell naturally.
"Wild and wicked" Jenna smiled "now we can go."
"So do you even know where they are?" Drew grumbled as he pulled his shirt over his head
"They'll be at the club down the road." K.C called from the bathroom.
"Pffft. Like Alli would ever go there. She's probably at the house working on her summer reading list."
"Dude. We haven't had a summer reading list since 7th grade."
"So? There's no way she will be there. And if she's not there, Jenna wont be" Drew said as he fixed his shirt collar
"Man, why are you so mean to Alls?"
"I'm not mean to her. I don't say things to her face"
"So? That just makes you mean and a coward," K.C. laughed as he stood beside Drew looking in the mirror
"Whatever man. Let's go and check out the talent for tonight." Drew said as he grabbed his keys and wallet, before following K.C. out the door
Alli and Jenna danced with Owen and his friend for what seemed like hours, before they decided they needed a rest. Sitting at the bar, the pair were giggling at how cute Owen and his friends were
"He wants you. Badly"
"Yeah? I think he wants her too," Alli laughed as she pointed to Owen and another girl sitting in a booth, both unable to keep their hands off each other
"Oh Alls! I'm sorry!"
"Don't worry about it Jenna," she laughed, "He wont be the last right?"
"Right. Man I need to pee! I'll be back in a minute!"
"Can you see either of them?" K.C. asked Drew looking around the club.
"Look for the genius with the book"
"Quit it will you Drew. Were gonna be spending 6 weeks with them, so you're gonna have to learn to be nice to her"
"Hey! You're gonna be spending 6 weeks with them! Just cos were both staying at my parents house, doesn't mean that im gonna be spending much time there… speaking of which, I think I just found my bed for the night. Laters man!" Drew called to K.C. as he headed in the direction of the bar.
"Yeah whatever man. Oh! Stop looking! I've found her!" K.C. said, knowing that Drew wasn't looking anyway
Alli was about to order another drink, when someone lent on the bar next to her.
"Can I interest you in a drink?"
"You can try" she flirted as she turned to look at the person beside her. When she saw the familiar face, her smile turned into a confused frown.
"Drew?"
"Alli?"
"What are you doing here? You and K.C. are supposed to be staying in Toronto!"
"My parents lent us their holiday home here in Malibu and we – wait, what happened to you? When did you get a body like this?" he asked her as he trailed his hand from her shoulder to her elbow.
"Ugh! You're a pig!" she exclaimed as she got off the stool and stood in front of him. She couldn't believe she ever had a thing for him.
"You've never talked to me other than for answers for your homework, and you think that by telling me I have a nice body, I'm gonna hook up with you?" Alli screamed in the club.
"Hey! Come on! That's not fair!" he said as she began to walk away, "I never knew you had an ass like this" he said as he ran his hand over her backside
Alli stopped and turned to look at him.
"Do me a favor? Stay the hell away from me!" she said as she shoved his hand away from her and walked towards the bathroom to find Jenna and K.C.
"Whoa Alls! What happened to you?" K.C. laughed as he looked her up and down.
"Jenna gave me a makeover." Alli laughed as K.C. pulled her in for a hug
"Obviously! You look great! Good thing me and Drew are here to beat off the guys!" K.C. laughed
"Pffft. Like Drew gives a shit what happens to me," she mumbled
"K.C. came up to surprise me! Isn't that sweet?" Jenna said smiling in her boyfriend's arms.
It sure was. Only now she'd have to spend summer vacation either alone or as a 3rd wheel
"Yeah it is. I never thought you had it in ya K.C."
"Thanks for the vote of confidence Alli"
"Well I'm tired, so I'm gonna head home and sleep. You two can stay and catch up."
"Are you sure cuz you know I could go with you?"
"I'm sure Jenna."
"You really shouldn't walk home alone. We'll come with you," K.C. offered.
"Nah I'll be fine. I don't wanna ruin your evening"
"Hey Drew! What are you doing?" K.C. called out
"I was gonna head home. Why?"
"Perfect. You can take Alli on your way"
"Uh… sure…" he said, sounding slightly worried
Oh how fun.
Alli gave Jenna a hug and said her goodbyes, before walking outside into the crisp night air
Drew walked over to his car and unlocked it, waiting for Alli to get in.
"Don't worry about me. I'm fine walking."
"Not looking like that you're not. You won't even make it to the corner before someone hits on you."
"And since when do you care whether I get home safely or not?"
"Since I was put in charge of taking you home. Do you know what Jenna would do to me if anything happened to you? Now you either get in the car, or I will come over there and put you in it myself." He said a lil spitefully.
As much as she hated to admit it, Drew was right. She probably shouldn't be out alone at this time of night. Especially dressed like this.
"Fine" she snapped as she yanked open the door and got inside
She saw Drew roll his eyes as he got inside the car
"Don't get your panties in a twist. Believe it or not I'm looking out for you."
"And what if I'm not wearing panties?" she asked as she glared at him.
He looked at her with a shocked look plastered on his face completely baffled by what she had said.
HA! That shut him up!
He swallowed hard and shook his head before starting the engine and letting go of a breath he hadn't realized he was holding.
They sat in silence for the entire journey
Alli sat brooding, while Drew couldn't help but be amused at her immaturity.
"This house on the left"
Drew pulled into the drive way and cut the engine, not sure if he should say anything or not
"Thanks for the ride" she mumbled as she slammed the car door shut
"Goodnight!" he called as she made her way to the front door
"Arrogant… pig-headed… disgusting… cowardly… egotistical… idiot…" Alli muttered as she yanked off her dress and pulled on a tank top and some pajama shorts. The night had been more or less perfect until Drew goddamn Torres turned up.
"Stupid jerk face… go to hell…" she continued grumbling as she ripped the blankets back so she could get into bed.
1 down, 42 days left
How the hell did this happen? 2 days ago, if you had of asked Drew to point Alli out in a crowd, the only way he would have been able to do it, is if she was with Clare or Jenna.
Now… he was pretty sure if you asked him to point her out, the crowd would part and a spotlight would fall on her.
Gone was the shy and timid Alli he knew from English class, instead was this new, confident, exciting, sexy… gorgeous Alli.
He knew he was attracted to her. He knew he wanted her. He knew he was gonna get her. He just didn't know how.
He also knew no matter what happened he would never be able to see her as Alli goody-two-shoes Bhandari again.
Well there it is guys. Chapter 2! Tell me if I should continue or not now that you know a little more of the direction of the story.
If you do want me to continue then in the next chapter or so, there's gonna be a lot going on. Its gonna be moving fast, but it will slow down a lil later! I want Alli to become the opposite to her school self. So I'm excited.
Hopefully you enjoy!
Thankss!
