A
Million
And One
Things
Lilly’s POV
I brushed the hair out of my face, my mascara down my face, what was wrong with me? I was crying? Its not like I missed my parents that sent me off to this that much, they were having more fun on their 16th year, 6 week anniversary in Las Vegas. I should have been able to stay with Grace, Elle, or maybe even Bridget, but no, I was sent to a 6 week stay in Maine with gram and gramps.
"Lil”
“yeah gram?” I said turning around to face her
“oh dear. Have you been crying?” she asked reaching for my un tanned face.
“no salt water really does a job to my eyes!” I laughed
"good,good!”she said back. Stroking her hand against my flowing hair. “Come inside darling, I'm starting dinner."
"In a minute, I'm just going to take a quick walk along the beach, to find some new shells."
"okay sweetie, no swimming, without me or gramp around."
"okay" i waved, starting my journey along the beach.
My toes sunk into the wet sand, the beach was almost empty as it neared 5 o'clock.A few surfers slid along the waves, the sun hung low in the sky, my favorite time of day. i sat down on the dry white sand, and just closed my eyes and listened to the waves.
"woosh, woo-"
"WATCH OUT!"
i opened my eyes to see a wave coming towards me, a surfer screaming on top of it. i tried to dodge the huge wave, it was impossible. the tip of the yellow board knocked my head, i fell into the watery mess of sand and sea salt, and everything went black.
"wake up, wake up" a wet hand touched my face. i opened my eyes slowly and looked around, blood was everywhere." i killed you, i bet this is like heaven and i bet your dead" the boy said, still holding my head.
"I'm fine, really, i am." i said wiping the blood off the large cut on my forehead.
"i owe you a million and one things." he whispered in my ear.
"hmm... i could think of plenty of things you could do for me i mean you hit me with the bored" i laughed
"no, I'm really sorry, so so so sorry." he said with a glimmer of a tear in his eyes.
"oh shut up! I've gotten hurt worse" i hugged the stranger that i didn't even know, i just knew he was in desperate need of a hug.
"I'm, I'm, Jay" he said, embracing me even more. this stranger, jay, seemed like he had known me for years.
"I'm Lilly" i smiled, pulling him away, slowly.
"let me take you home, live around here?"
"I'm, staying at my grandparents for a while, 13 Beach side road, up that way" i pointed.
"why hello neighbor" he grabbed my hand pulling me up to walk me home, this summer couldn't be ALL that bad...
