SPENCER'S P.O.V
"You're staring Spence"
I can't help it.
"I know"
Today's the first day we've been able to actually get off the ship and I intend on making the most of it.
"You really like her don't you?"
When she says that I look over at her.
"Yer..."
This whole situation really sucks.
"But she's going to lose interest and nothing will come of it"
"Spencer that's ridiculous"
"Look at her Chelsea"
We both turn so we're facing her.
"She's gorgeous..."
"She is ridiculously hot"
When she says that I smile.
"Chels why would she waste her time waiting for me when there's all these other girls she could be with?"
"Do you really need me to answer that?"
Yes.
"Chelsea I told her I need time"
"You do"
"Yer but what happens if she uses that time to figure out I'm not worth it?"
"Spencer..."
"Chelsea I'm not being ridiculous"
"You are"
I really don't think I am.
"Okay ladies we're all signed up and ready to go"
"Awesome"
Chelsea's been so excited all day.
"Spencer stop being Debbie"
When she says that I start laughing.
"What's done is done"
That's true.
"Spence this is a once in a lifetime trip and I refuse to let Debbie Downer get back on that ship"
She's a good friend.
"Chels how about we leave her at this bar?"
"I don't know if I can be responsible for her developing a drinking problem"
That's hilarious.
"Chels I'm sure she'll be fine"
She's smiling.
"Guys I'm sorry I've made everything so complicated"
"Spencer we've been friends for a really long time now and I don't agree with how you've handled this, but I'm not going to judge you either"
When he says that I smile.
"So stop freaking out"
I can't help it.
"We've all done things in our lives that we're not proud of and this is just one of those things you have to deal with"
"It's a pretty big one Jase..."
"You're an over achiever Spence, you always have been"
I met Jason and Chelsea my first day of Middle School.
We shared the same classes and we were all on the school swim team.
"Okay let's do this..."
I need to snap out of this funk I'm in.
Chelsea's right, this is a once in a lifetime trip.
"Let's jump off that mountain"
Chelsea has the biggest grin on her face.
"That's the spirit Spence"
HALF AN HOUR LATER
"Hey"
When I hear Aiden's voice I turn around.
"Hey Aiden"
"Are you jumping?"
"Yer of course"
"Wow Spencer I'm impressed"
He's smiling.
"Are you on your lonesome?"
He must be.
I can't see Kyla or Ashley anywhere.
"Yer Ash and Ky aren't really the adventurous type"
That doesn't surprise me.
"Hey dude what's up?"
I stand back and watch as Jason pulls him in for a man hug.
"Are you all jumping?"
"Yer if one jumps we all jump"
When Jason wraps his arm around my shoulders I smile.
"Are you alright Chelsea?"
She's like a kid in a candy store.
She loves all this stuff.
"Aiden she's just a little excited"
"Ohhhh"
He does seem like a really cool guy.
"I can't believe you girls are actually going to jump"
"They're not your normal girls Aiden"
"Be very careful Jason"
When Chelsea says that we all start laughing.
"Chels I meant that in the nicest possible way"
I don't know what Ashley's said or hasn't said to Aiden, so it's a little awkward.
"You're up Chels"
When she hands me her camera I start taking photos as she gets strapped in.
"MY HEART'S RACING"
I feel the exact same way.
"THIS IS GOING TO BE SO SICK"
This moutain's huge and this view is unlike anything I've ever seen before.
"SEE YOU AT THE BOTTOM BITCHES"
We all start laughing as she runs and jumps off the edge.
"Damn she's not scared at all is she?"
"You're up Aid"
When I tap him on the shoulder I can tell he's nervous.
"Deep breathes Aiden"
He's shitting himself.
"Spencer if anyone asks I was fearless"
That's hilarious.
"I gues I'll see you bitches at the bottom"
When he walks away I take a picture of Jason and I.
"Jase do you want to go next or shall I?"
"You go Spence"
I was hoping he'd say that.
"Here"
I quickly hand him the camera.
"I'll see you at the bottom"
When I get to where my instructor's standing he quickly starts strapping me in.
"Have you ever been paragliding before?"
"No"
"You're going to love it"
I stand there as he checks all my straps one last time.
"Are you ready?"
"Yer"
"Let's do this"
When we start running my heart feels like it's going to beat out of chest.
This is going to be so much fun.
