My Summer
Chapter
2
I had now
been in San Antonio for 4 days now, and I was loving it. I
can't believe how nice Texans are - so much nicer than us
Brits! And everyone seemed to swoon over my London accent, which
i secretly loved. I had tan lines already and I loved being able
to go out shopping during the day, and then hit the neighborhood
pool at about 3 in the afternoon. Wow, this really is the life. I
didn't think 3 weeks was going to be long enough in this
paradise! But I held onto the fact that my father was really
trying his hardest to find a job for us to move over here.
I was going to Walmart with the family in the mini van to do some
food shopping, and then to go for a swim after. I had some money
on me, so I wondered around by myself.
After browsing for 15 minutes or so I found the posters, and I
decided to look through all the ones of Justin Bieber. Could you
blame me? It was then that I heard someone snicker behind me. I
just ignored whoever it was - they might not even me laughing at
me. But then I heard one of them mutter aloud "Ha. Look at
her - buying Justin Bieber posters." The myseterious boy
sneered. And someone else then muffled a laugh in return. I was
annoyed. Who did these guys think they were?! So I turned around
to face them.
"Excuse me, you don't like what I'm looking at? Then
walk away. You think I want you standing behind me making snide
comments while I can hear? I didn't think so. Got a problem,
then MOVE." I retorted, sounding as sarcastic as I could,
whilst really turning on the posh London accent.
I could see that I had obviously shocked them. Maybe it was the
fact I was English, maybe it was the fact that I had beat them at
their own game. Either way, they were both standing there with
their mouths hanging open. I raised my eyebrow at them, and the
one who had make the coment laughed and seemed to soften up a
bit. He was actually... really good looking. Like extremely good
looking. He had very tanned skin with the most amazing colour
hair, like caramel. He had the most beautiful eyes I had honestly
ever seen, they were light brown round the edges, and green in
the middle. I was mesmerized. But I quickly realised I was
staring and looked down, blushing slightly.
"Well I sure weren't expectin' that, were you
Flash?" The handome boy turned to his friend. This
'Flash' boy had a very proffessional looking camera round
his neck, with blonde hair and tanned skin also, but he had pale
blue eyes, not as pretty as the other one...
"What? You mean a pretty young lady turnin' round and
actually givin' you a taste of your own medicine for
once?" Flash replied smugly.
"I am still present, you know?" I piped in, annoyed at
how they were talking about me, while I was standing right
there.
"Oh, I'm sorry - I didn't catch your name,"
Pretty boy asked me.
"L-lacie..." I trailed off. His eyes were smoldering,
but I bet he did that with all the girls.
"Hi Lacie, thats a cute name. I'm Jason, and my pal here
is Flash. What part of England you from? And what in the world
are you doing in San Anonio?" Jason. I liked that name,
maybe a little too much...
"Why are you called Flash?" I asked the tall boy,
"And I live about 20 minutes out of Central
London."
"I'm a photographer, my camera flashes a lot, and so I
got stuck with the nickname. And cool, from the big city. I
always wanted to go there. Great places to take pictures."
Flash was really friendly, he seemed like a really nice, genuine
person.
"Well Lacie, they have a starbucks in here, you wanna grab a
drink with us?" Jason boldly asked.
"Um... okay. I just need to inform my father." The boys
looked at each other and burst out laughing, clutching their
stomachs. "What's so funny?" I asked, puzzled.
"You're so Brittish," Jason ruffled my hair. Like
that was an explanation. I walked off to go find my family. Then
went back to meet the two guys.
"I'll have a double choc-chip frappacino please," I
ordered at the Starbucks. I pulled out a few dollars, but got
really confused with the coins. How much was a nickle worth?
What's a dime? I heard Jason snicker again, and I turned
round, annoyed, to see him pulling out a few dollar bills and
handing them to the man.
"It's on me." He smirked. Oh he was way too
confident for my liking.
"T-thanks... J-jason..." Why did I have to sound so
stupid?! I was just some innocent little girl to him, which I
hated. He had hardly known me for 15 minutes!
But we grabbed a table and all sat down.
"So," Jason started, "Tell me more about
youself."
