We had spent the next couple of hours just messing around on the beach. We walked along the pier, we splashed each other in the freezing pacific water, despite all the protests of Chelly, and we completed the day by building the best sand castle ever.

“I’m hungry,” Jaime whined, as he flopped back on his towel and a pout making it’s way onto his face.

“Me too,” Tony agreed with a nod.

“What is there around here?” I asked looking over at the group of guys.

“Ummm, there’s a couple of restaurants around here.” Vic answered as he looked around, as if he would find his answer in the sand.

“Why don’t we just walk along the board walk and see what we can find?” Chelly suggested.

I reached over to grab the shorts I had laid out on the towel, not wanting to get them wet when we went into the water. I moved to slip them on and began to button them up. When I finished I look up to see Mike offering his hand to help me up.

I gave him a hard look and pushed myself up on my own. Once I was standing I bent down to grab my bag. As my hand grasped the handle, I felt a hand smack against my ass.

I immediately stood up straight and jerked my head to the offender. Mike was standing there laughing was a big shit eating grin on his face.

“How dare you!” I shrieked, shoving him as hard as I could.

“What?” Mike shrugged, “You were asking for it! You were just sticking your ass out!” He chuckled as if it were all a big joke.

“You asshole!” I huffed, “I am no a piece of meat, do not touch me again!”

“Mike, not cool dude,” Vic scolded his younger brother.

Still giggling, Mike turned back to me, “I’m sorry for smacking your ass.”

“Whatever,” I said angrily as I started to make my way across the beach towards the sidewalk.

I could hear everybody scrambling to grab their things and follow after me.

Once I made my way onto the boardwalk, I made my way to the bus stop that would take me back to campus.

“Sara, all the restaurants are that way?” Jaime questioned my direction.

“Yeah, I know, but I want to go home,” I shrugged as I pulled my bag higher up on my shoulder.

“Awe, Sara,” Vic gave me a sad look, “Don’t go just cause Mike is being an ass.”

“Yeah Sara, we’ll keep him in line!” Tony piped up.

I began to shuffle my feet, “I’m tired, I’m just really ready to head back.”

“Come on, let me at least buy you a meal to make up for me acting like a big jerk earlier,” Mike said earnestly.

I sighed knowing there was no way they were going to let me head back, “You are a big jerk, let’s go...”

Everyone cheered knowing that they had convinced me to stay. I guess these new friends of Chelly’s weren’t half bad.
