The ringing in my ears didn't help the three hour time difference between here and California.
Ugh might as well get up....I put on my denim shorts and a lace blue tank top. Quickly I pulled my hair into a messy bun and ran down the stairs. I grabbed my keys of the counter.
"Bye Mom," I shouted.
"Bye Hun," she replied,"be careful"
I slid into my car and drove to the dinner.
I remembered the last time I had been here.
Two years was definitely a long time!Silently I hoped Trent was there. I hadn't spoken to him in two years. That was the longest I had been away from him, ever since preschool we were best friends.
My legs had a mind of their own as they carried my inside. I quickly sat at a table.
"Chocolate-chip pancakes please." I told the lady.
"M'kay you want coffee" her voice sounded vaguely familiar. My head shot up.
It sounded like Alyssa, my other best friend."Alyssa?" I heard myself croak.
"Em!!" She cried.
"Hey," I got up to give her a hug.
"Why didn't you text me the minute you landed?"she scolded as her arms tightened around me.
"Ugh yow sqghishinh mii," I squeaked.
"Huh..." She stepped back.
"I said,' You are squishing me!'"
"Oh sorry, anyways I'll get you that cofee, on the house."
As soon as she left, a guy walked up to me. His blue eyes captured mine. His hair was tousled to the side and his tan broad sholders held his black tank top.
"Are you a parking ticket? Cause you got fine written all over you." His mouth moved.
For a second I thought he was serious. My laugh filled the area. He was definitely shocked.
"Do you got a name or are you just fine-laughing-at-pick-up-lines-girl?" He replied as my laughing died down.
"Emily" I said.
"What?"
"That's my name," I replied.
"Oh well Emily do you wanna come sit with us?" He eagerly pointed at a table.
"Sure,"I replied.
Trents POV
My head was down on the table.
"Damn that girl is hot," I heard Sam say.
" First person to get her number is the ultimate player," Alex announced.
I heard Sam dash off the table to the girl. Sometimes I wished I still had my girl friends around.
No not girlfriends but friends that were girls. Though I had had lots of both. I need Em.After about five minutes he returned. I didn't bother looking at her. She was probably some other an easy hook up. I saw Alex gawking at her.
"Take a picture it will last longer" she snapped at him.
Matt, Sam, and I laughed. Still I kept my eyes down.
"Well I am Sam" he continued.
"I'm Alex", he announced.
"I am Matt," Matt continued.
"Why are you wearing galaxy joggers?" She asked.(picture above)
"Why do you prefer me without any joggers?" he replied.
"Sorry, hun, I don't like to be disappointed."
I laughed out loud.
Now I had to see her face.I looked up. Her green eyes captured mine.
"Em?" I asked.
"Trent" she spoke softly.
