Author's Note:
Well part 2 is here as promised. Personally I think it's really cheesy and kinda silly even though I wanted to make it meaningful originally XD
A special thanks to Koons41 and LostLove2015 for keeping me extra motivated with this story. Otherwise part 2 might have taken a lot longer due to my laziness, reality shows, and my addiction to roleplaying. Oh and there is a special announcement at the end of this! Don't skip to it though because it will ruin the surprise!
Lela's POV
To say I'm nervous to surf is an understatement. I've been told my whole life that bikers bike, surfers surf, and there is no in between or a way around that. Then again I've also been told that girls only fall for boys. So I guess I'm really a rebel now.
Mack and I are walking onto the beach and I think I'm shaking. The warm sand beneath my feet is mildly comforting but the ocean is still big and intimidating. I think I'm about to turn around and run home when I feel a warm hand on my shoulder.
I look over my shoulder at who that hand belongs to and of course it's Mack. I give her a huge smile. I always seem to be smiling around her. She is just so awkwardly cute and silly…
See what I meant about falling for a girl?! I don't feel this way about Brady. He's cute and all but…
I never get that feeling of butterflies in my stomach or like I want to blast off into the heavens from all the happiness I feel when I'm with Mack… Am I really falling for her or are we just really close? Oh, bonkers! Why does this have to be so complicated?
Mack shakes my shoulder and breaks me out of my thoughts.
"Lela you've been standing there smiling at me for two minutes. Are you nervous?" She laughs a little tilting her head.
I nod quickly, "Yeah that's all. The ocean is just so big and I'm so… Small." I shake my head. I must sound pathetic to her, "Sorry. I sound dumb."
"No you don't!" She put her other hand on my other shoulder so she was facing me fully. "A bike is a machine that you can control. You can't control the ocean; you can only borrow her power for a moment to feel… Absolute bliss. But it can go wrong quickly." I couldn't help but be completely mesmerized by her. This wasn't the adorably awkward Mack I was with last night. When she talked about surfing she was filled with passion and determination.
"Thanks Mack, I'm not nervous anymore. I know I'm safe with you." I hear myself say dreamily. Her cheeks turn bright red and she removes her hands.
"G-good," She stutters, "Ready to go?"
I grin and nod my head, jogging towards the water.
"Whoa, whoa!" I hear behind me when all of a sudden Mack has her arms around my waist and she is picking me up. I start giggling like crazy because I'm ticklish on my stomach. "Mack!"
Mack puts me down and I face towards her, still in her arms. "Why did you do that?" I asked as my giggles died down. We were practically nose to nose and both blushing.
Before she can answer I hear whistling from behind me. We both turn around and see a group of boys walking and smirking at us.
"Well ya gonna kiss or what? We're waiting! Don't disappoint us!"
My face was definitely bright red now, not from the close proximity between Mack and me, but from those rude jerks. Normally I'm a happy person but not when you're mean to someone I lov- I mean deeply care about.
I break from Mack's grip, "That's it, Mack hold my earrings." I start taking out my earrings to go teach the jerks a lesson but Mack stops me.
"No, Lela don't. It's not worth it." I look back at her and slowly nod. One look into her eyes and I'm calm again.
The boys must have gotten bored and left but I'm not sure since I'm not paying attention to them. All I know is that I'm getting lost in those chocolate pools, and that those soft pink lips are getting closer to mine…
Ha that's right cliffhanger! UN-PRE-DICTABLE. So yes I have decided to make it a three shot instead :D
So if you decided to skip to the end instead of reading it first then you broke the rules and that makes you a rebel. Which means I like you ;D
Hope you enjoyed this chapter. This part was more about developing Lela's feelings than anything else. I thought it kind of sucked but hopefully you enjoyed it.
Part 3 is gonna be a bit of a wait I'm afraid. I have a busy week ahead. I'm going to Chris Colfer's book signing tomorrow, I work Wednsday, Thursday, and Friday, and I have a BBQ to go to this weekend. Sorry for the inconvenience.
