We were on the plane, on our way to Florida. I was so excited. This was my first holiday with my family in a long time. Not to mention my boyfriend was coming too! Two weeks off school. I could barely contain my excitement. Mum and Amie were sitting in the two chairs in front of me and Manfred, which was good, because it would've been so awkward if it were the other way around. We had been on the plane for ages, so I expected to be arriving soon. I couldn't get to sleep for ages, until finally I fell asleep for a few hours on Manfred's shoulder.
A few hours after I woke up, the plane finally landed. It wasn't long before we arrived at the beach house we had rented. We each got our own room. I unpacked some of my stuff before going to explore the rest of rooms.
On Monday, we headed down to the beach. Manfred slipped into three-quarter trousers and a short-sleeved shirt with sandals, which he didn't bother to button, showing his chest. Amie wore shorts and a top with flip-flops. It was very hot and sunny out and there were loads of people on the beach. The good thing was that it wasn't far from the house we were renting. Me and my mum changed into our bikinis and brought towels with us and the tanning chairs with us. I lay on the chair with my sunglasses on, with Manfred sitting on the sand flirting with me. Mum was also lying down on the chair, getting a tan. She had a lot of guys come up to her and chat her up, which was quite disturbing for me, but at least she didn't take any notice of Manfred and me. Amie had no trouble making friends in Florida. She was off playing with some new friends she met at the beach today.
Just as I was about to kiss Manfred (yet again), two teenagers, a girl and boy, around our age, came up to us. The girl was blonde, with blue eyes, tanned and looked quite sporty. The boy had dark, swishy hair that was wet from the sea. He had blue eyes, like the girl, and had a dimple in his cheek.
"Hey." The boy said. He had a strong Canadian accent.
Manfred nodded as I said hello.
"I'm Tyler, and this is my friend, Nicole." He continued as the girl, Nicole, smiled (or at least tried to) at us. She had a feisty and bitchy look to her, but she could be really nice, so I smiled back.
"Nice to meet you." I said as I shook his hand, "I'm Summer, this is my boyfriend, Manfred."
"Huh." Was all he said.
"So you guys are new around here?" Nicole asked.
"Actually, we're just on holiday." Manfred replied.
"Oh." She said.
"So, you guys up for a game of volleyball with us?" Tyler asked.
"Sure." Manfred said.
It was the girls versus the guys in volleyball. Me and Nicole won. We high-fived each other and teased the guys. We got to know each other. Nicole was really nice, and Tyler was nice too, but it seemed like he was trying to flirt with me, which made me feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Hey, you guys should come to the party." Nicole said.
"What party?" I asked.
"The party at this beach on Wednesday 9pm. It's gonna be epic." Tyler answered.
"Okay." Manfred replied.
"You better be there." Tyler said a bit more to me, than Manfred.
"We will." I replied.
It was dark after Tyler and Nicole left, and me and Manfred stayed on the beach, in each other's arms, staring out at the ocean. The view was beautiful and romantic. Soon I fell asleep in his arms and Manfred carried me back to the beach house and to my room.
It was Wednesday night, an hour before the party started. I tried on a series of outfits before deciding to go with a short silk cream and brown dress, that came up to about halfway up my upper thigh. I matched it with some cream coloured bracelets and a necklace and earrings. I curled my hair with the curling iron, and slipped on some high heels. It was 9:30pm. We were a bit late. Manfred was waiting for me at the bottom of the stairs.
"You look beautiful." He said.
"Thanks. You're not so bad yourself." I replied.
"Mum, we're going now!" I called out, before heading out the door and towards the party. The loud music could be heard form miles away and the colourful lights and partying teenagers could be seen from far away. We wandered through the crowds of teens. Some of them were already drunk. I turned around at a light tapping on my shoulder. It was Tyler.
"Hey." He greeted, "I'm glad you came. I was beginning to think you weren't gonna show."
"Of course I'd show up." I laughed.
"Hey guys!" Nicole yelled and waved from afar. She ran towards us, trying to get through the small spaces between the people.
"I'm glad you could make it!" She said.
They introduced us to some new people. We danced a lot with Tyler, Nicole and the new people. Most of the people were drunk and snogging the faces of some random person.
I checked my phone. It was about 11pm already. I escaped from the party to get some fresh air. The party had stunk of alcohol and cigarette smoke. I sat on the wooden railing and looked past the houses.
"Hey." Someone said, as they sat beside me. It was Tyler.
"Hey yourself." I replied.
"What's up? Don't you like the party?" He asked.
"No, it's not that. I just needed some air, that's all?"
He didn't say anything for a long while and neither did I. In fact, I pretty much liked it like that.
"So what's the deal with you and this Manfred dude?" He asked, with a hint of jealousy in his tone.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, are you serious or just casual?"
"I don't know, why?"
"Just wondering." He replied.
"So, he's the type of guys you go for?" He asked.
"…I guess…where are you getting at?"
"I'm just saying. Maybe you should change your type to someone more…suitable. Your not happy with him are you?"
"Yes, I am very happy with him." I snapped, "Why is it your concern? I barely know you."
"I could make you much happier." He whispered, as he leaned in closer. He paused before crushing his lips to mine.
"What the hell?"
Me and Tyler whipped our heads around to face the disgusted face of Manfred. I got up and tried to explain but he walked off before I could say anything. I shot Tyler a dark look before running after Manfred calling his name. Tyler was chasing after me.
"You don't need him!" He yelled.
I searched for him for ages, and I was scared he had done something bad. I asked around to see if anyone had seen him. I searched around the beach houses. As I was looking, a female voice shouted my voice.
"Summer!" Nicole yelled.
"Summer, Manfred…he's…" She said in between breaths.
But I didn't need her to finish her sentence to know what was going on. The teens at the party were hooting and some were screaming. I ran back to the party to find Manfred on top of Tyler punching him repeatedly. I yanked Manfred's arm away, to try get him to stop. Nicole and another guy helped me get him of Tyler and keep him back, whilst two guys kept Tyler back. Manfred took one look at me and roughly shook my hand of his arm, before walking off, far away from the party. The party started up again and everyone started to dance again, taking no interest in the fight that had just occurred.
I ran after Manfred, whilst Tyler stared after me, dumbfounded.
"Manfred!" I called. He was sitting on the sand throwing stones in the sea. I sat beside him.
"Manfred…look at me…please." I said. He stayed focused on throwing stones in the sea, pretending I wasn't even there.
"Just let me explain." I said in a soft tone. He finally looked at me.
"Fine." He answered in a hard voice.
I didn't say anything for a while, trying to gather up what to say to him.
"He kissed me." I told him.
"But you could've pulled away. You had the choice of pulling away, but you didn't, did you?" He replied.
"I didn't have time to. He took me by surprise."
He didn't reply for a long while.
"I'm sorry." I whispered. My eyes were welling up, and I couldn't hold back to tears. He looked at me as I blinked and my vision became clouded with a layer of tears. I blinked again and the tears rolled down. I tried to wipe them away before he noticed, but it was too late. He sighed and put his arm around me, pulling me closer to him so that my head rested on his shoulder.
"We'd better go." He whispered in my ear, before getting up and offering his hand out to me. I took it, and we walked hand in hand back to the beach house.
The rest of the holiday went well. I didn't see Tyler again after the day after the party, where he tried to apologize to me, but then tried to kiss me again, but I did see Nicole. I was sad when we had to go home. Amie was very sad, and refused to leave, so Manfred said something to her which made her agree to leave. We packed all our things and boarded the plane. The flight was long, and after what seemed like forever, we landed back home.
MWAHAHAHA.
