Love In A Heart Beat

Love In a Heart Beat- Chapter Three

I didn't speak to Adam for the rest of the day after that. I felt slightly guilty for blowing off so hard on him but you have to understand, he's been doing that every year i come here and I'm tired of it because I'm not a kid anymore. Why are guys so dumb sometimes? I'm not angry anymore but he better not do it again or he will hit the boundary with me.

Waking up the next morning felt very peaceful because this time, the stupid alarm clock didn't wake me up, but the natural awakening from the calming beam of the sun shining through my window and lightning up my bedroom a beautiful tint of orange did. I sleep in the guest room on my own while my mum shares a room with Susan and i love that because this room has a wonderful view of the beach and the sunset that stretches across the horizon in the evening that i can have all to myself. I love watching the sunset, it calms me down and makes me feel relaxed.

After a Minute of stretching and yawning on my bed, i walked over to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. I can smell something.. something really good.. like.. Pancakes? I followed the smell that led me to the kitchen and saw the great cook Susan whipping up some pancakes and setting them down on plates at the table. I then heard someone playing a game on TV so i backed out of the kitchen doorway, through the dining room and round the staircase to see who was in the living room.

" Morning Harry " I said, when i saw him playing his PlayStation on the TV. I jumped on the sofa and relaxed my legs on his lap because i know hes not going to mind.

" Mornin' Belly " He wasn't paying much attention to me as he was so focused on his game. I began watching him play. Hes quite good actually, but all you do is shoot people and jump on things.. yay.

" SHIT! " Harry shouted when he finally lost his little battle game. I couldn't help but laugh

" Harry, Language.. " Susan called out from the kitchen.

" So.... who was the girl yesterday?? " I asked playfully. I love to tease harry, he never minds, hes cool like that and fun to talk to.

" Girl? I wish " Harry nudged my legs off him and got up to put his PlayStation remote away.

" Aww don't lie, you have to tell me, you always tell me " I whispered, so that Susan wouldn't hear.

" I know, i would tell you if there was a girl, but there really wasn't. Adam Told me to leave the beach and said he would follow later, but he didn't and i could'nt be bothered to come back again. " I could tell Harry wasn't lying but that's confusing...

" But why would he tell you to leave the beach and then tell me you wer- "

" BREAKFASTS READY, EAT IT OR LEAVE IT! " I heard Susan call out from the kitchen. Harry shrugged and got up to walk to the kitchen and i followed him. As we crossed the stairs i could hear my mum talking to Adam as he hopped down the stairs.. No eye contact until he speaks to me first, that's a rule i've given myself.

As i sat down, i felt more and more hungry because every year Susan makes this delicious looking breakfast that everyone enjoys and its usually pancakes in the first morning here. The table is set beautifully too. A jug of orange juice was placed in the centre of the table near a syrup bottle and a small vase with sunflowers in was kept inbetween. There was also a small bowl of strawberries that Susan knew i loved eating, especially with pancakes and syrup.

As i was pouring some syrup onto my small pile of pancakes, Adam came into the room and sat opposite me. I could feel him looking at me but im not going to look back because it will make him feel like i've forgiven him.

" So boys, are you going to the beach again today? " Susan asked as she sat down on the table with my mum, who just smiled and picked up her fork and knife.
