The rest of the summer was magical. Dad bought my first car which was a dark blue 2010 Chevolet cobalt. Zack and I hung out practically everyday. We had so much in common, with movies, books and even food. He was like my soulmate in a best friend. We did everything together, even sleepovers which I'm surprised my parents didn't mind. Probably because Sandy was always home, and her and my mother became really good friends as well. Blake had his grad party at the beach, with a BBQ. We went school shopping, watched movies, pulled all nighters, random adventures in the car, swimming, or just hanging out talking. Jess would tell her parents she was staying at my house since they were more strict with her sleeping with Austin over night.
Jess and I were tanning on the beach talking about the new school year starting in just a few days and the yearly bon fire is tomorrow night. We were interrupted by cold water, Zack and Austin decided to splash us. Jess runs after Austin, he manages to pick her up and throw her into the water. Zack plops down next me to me " The water is nice, we should join them" Zack says as he's pulling me up. I sigh and get up. As we get into the water I jump onto Zack making him fall in the water. Jess hops on Austin's back, and I hop on Zack's we decide to try and knock each other off. Once we got cold and pruney we decided to call it there and head home and meet up after we showered, changed, and ate.
I got to Zack's just before dark. Jess, and Austin were not here yet, Blake was sitting on the front steps "Hey Sammy" he said giving me a warm smile. "Hey Blake, I can't believe you're leaving the day after tomorrow" I replied stopping in front of him. "Yeah, but I'll be home before you know it" he said still smiling at me. I nodded my head and went inside. Zack was already picking out a movie to watch as I came through the bedroom door. "Hey, looks like you beat everyone else here" he said. " Seems that way" I replied with a smile on my face. Jess and Austin appeared through the door, " Sorry, mom was asking her usual where are you going, and how long you going to be out for questions" Jess said with a sigh. " All good, I just got here a few minutes ago" I said. We all sat on the couch and watched Children of the Corn, I love horror movies, and Zack has a wide collection of them. Jess on the other hand does not care for horror movies, but she ends up making out with Austin most of the time anyway.
The movie ended, Austin drove Jess home, Zack walked me to my car, I leaned against the car door, Zack was looking at the ground "You okay?" I asked "Yeah, just sucks summer pretty much ended already" he replied still looking at the ground. "I had the best summer, thanks to you, besides it's not like we aren't going to hangout anymore" I said giving him a smile. He smiled back at me and moved closer to me putting his arm around me, pulling me in for a hug. I hugged him back. Zack always gave the best hugs always made me feel safe. "I will pick you up at eight for the bon fire tomorrow night" he says letting me go. "Okay, I will be ready, see you then" I got into my car and drove home, while he was standing in his driveway watching me.
