A CHANGE OF EVENTS
CHAPTER SEVEN
ALEX'S POV
"Oh, darn." Mum sighed as we got into the car. "I forgot to make a cake to bring."
"That's fine, we'll just go without it." I shrugged, hoping to get this over and done with.
"No, no. We have to bring something! I'll just quickly run over to the shops on the Boardwalk."
Without realising at the time, this was a golden opportunity for me to stall the dinner plans.
I was dreading it ever since Mum told me about it, but still. I wasn't looking forward to being bullied for the rest of my schooling life.
"Mum, did you want me to run and get a nice looking one?" I stared straight into her eyes, hoping she would say yes.
"Yes please!" She sighed, in relief. "Here's fifty dollars, run and grab whatever looks best. Preferably orange cake, because you can't eat chocolate anymore."
Oh Mother, why did you have to mention chocolate?
I got out of the car and ran as fast as I could to the Boardwalk using my phone GPS. I hardly remembered what this even city looked like!
The ambience from the sky created a nice warm vibe that spread throughout the beach. The wind blew against my skin, feeling like a personal air conditioner following me as I walked. It was the perfect weather, I didn't want to leave.
So many teenagers, I felt so mainstream.
"I'm going to marry HARRY!" A girl shouted at her friend.
"Whatever. I'm marrying Louis." She turned her head away in defeat.
I didn't even realise that band was famous here, I thought it was just in Paris.
Everywhere you go, you would hear about everything they did.
Status updates reading, "OMG!! ZAYN'S WEARING A BLACK SWEATSHIRT! GUESS WHAT I CHANGED INTO!"
Seriously? Please.
"Oi, blondie!" A blonde teenage boy called out form behind.
Wow, he's actually really cute. But his friend next to him? I hope he's single.
They look oddly familiar, but I can't really pick out where I've seen them.
Were they in my class?
"I'm sorry, were you talking to me?" I raised my eyebrow at them. Honestly, I'm not used to being hit on, so I don't really know how to react.
"Yeah, babe." He winked, leaning closer to me. I could smell his hot dog breath, and it was not pleasant. "Number?"
"New phone, don't know it yet." I laughed, awkwardly. Score! The first time someone has tried to hit on me! "Uh... I have to go. See you around?"
Why did I say that. I was supposed to stall the dinner.
But knowing me, I just ran off.
Stupid Alex. Stupid, stupid Alex.
