Taking a sip from the tequila I had grown addicted to. Well OK I live with my parents so juice it is then. I look out, watching the night view as I play out what happened two years ago.

"Shush" I cautioned my little brother's screams as we unpacked our bags in our hotel room.

It's my fifteenth birthday tomorrow, and we are out on a vacation to Hawaii to celebrate it.

My birthday wish last year was to go on a family trip to Hawaii and my parents said they had to make it come true this year. It's like a tradition and I have gotten used to it over the years. Last year we went on a trip to Disneyland and honestly I felt so in love with the place that I cried when we were about to leave. So to make it up to myself, I promised myself a trip to Hawaii.

The whole birthday wish thing started when I turned five. On my fifth birthday my dad had asked me if I felt different, and I said no. Then he said "So do you have a wish?" Back then I hadn't known that birthday wishes were supposed to stay secret, but I said what I wished for anyways.

"I want a veryyyy huge play house that I, koko and Whitney can play in" The next weekend, my dad made me one and said

"The fairy of wishes has granted your wish"

Even though I had found out when I was ten or so that there was no fairy of wishes and that my dad had just been buying me those things, I still played dumb and kept getting the things I desperately needed on my birthdays.

Dropping my traveling box on the bed, I picked out a set of bikini and overall, before heading to the bathroom to freshen up.

Just the thought of walking down the beach, fresh air, the water and the view was enough to make my day.

🌊 🏖

"whew" I took in a breath of fresh air as I close my eyes, reveling in the feeling of being free. Country music was being played and some ladies with leaflike things wrapped around their hips, hanging on them like skirts as they danced, choreographed and moved to the tunes.

I didn't know when my lips parted as I grinned from ear to ear. As a kid, I had been obsessed with Disney and Moana, Barbie and Frozen were my favorite but when I entered high school, my friends would say it is for kids and always mock me when I bring them up. So one day I got upset and burnt down all my CD's and Merch in the fear of being seen as uncool. I had had sleepless nights after but after some time, I stopped thinking about it.

I was in the middle of reminiscing my past when I accidentally bumped into someone. He had a cup of wine in hand which after the contact bathed me from my chest to my toe.

I looked down at my bikini that was now stained and grind my teeth. You have got to be kidding me.

Foaming from anger, I look up and was about to curse at him when I took a glimpse of his face. Sharp Jaws, small eyes, pointed nose and rosy lips. He was saying something that I didn't quite figure out because all my attention was on his face.

He turned around to leave and I watched his back as I screamed OH MY GOSH!! Continously in my head and at the same time wondered how someone as good-looking at him existed. The most interesting part is that he bumped into me. He freaking bumped into me.

Just the thought of him gave me butterflies and I had to slap myself multiple times to make sure I wasn't dreaming.

Right after the little 'accident', I went back to the hotel to take a shower and my thoughts continuously drifted back to him till I fell asleep on the couch.

😴😴

"Woah mummy that was so cool. Can we stay here every day? Please?" I was woken by junior's whines and I opened my eyes and rubbed it afterwards.

"You didn't leave the house" my mom asked as she tied her bathrobe. "You missed out on a lot of fun"

If fun is watching my dad and mom do dumb things while they blushed, grinned, and embarrass each other including me, then I'll pass. Speaking of blush, I remember what happened earlier today and my cheeks went hot. Thinking back, I had really acted stupid watching him like that. I wonder what he would think about me now. Urrgh

"Chill. She must have gone out. Her slippers have some beach sand on it. Looks like someone had a good time without us" my dad teased in his detective like manner and I groaned, walked to my bed and buried myself under the duvet. Stop thinking about him, you dummy.

"Bye" my mom said before leaving with dad and junior.

Perfect, I thought as my mind wandered off.

🛅🛅 🛅

A week rolled by, and it is finally time to leave. We were in the private car owned by the hotel on our way to the airport.

I sat with my earpiece on even though no music was playing. My mom and dad were arguing about the language they had just 'learned' as the both of them had spent their week taking language lessons and believe me, it isn't pleasant to hear them spit gibberish claiming it's some new language.

Junior was busy playing a new video game that dropped yesterday. The game literally stopped the world as the internet was buzzing with how awesome and fun it is. Of course, I don't have it on my phone, the reason being that I literally hate video games in total and even I don't know the reason why. The only games I have on my phone are dress up games and I have grown bored by it over the years. Now, I only play it whenever am in a bad mood. And now is one of the times.

After that day, I had gone to the beach multiple times throughout the week but have never seen the "Guy that took my breath away" as I loved to call him again.

The driver pulled up in the parking lot and waited till we said our goodbyes before leaving.

Bye Hawaii

🛬

Immediately after we got off the airplane and went into the tunnel, What greeted us at the airport outside was a whole crowd of people with banners and stickers with the words "we love you Edward Miller" as they screamed and shrieked. I guess there's some celebrity in town. I thought as I put back my headphones back on and dragged my luggage along with the others for inspection.

I heard some whispers from behind me about securities and fans and made a rough guess that the long awaited celebrity was behind me. Furthermore, I looked back to take a look at the so-called person and maybe request a selfie or something from him, but I couldn't quite pinpoint who he is.

He had on a pair of big rimmed glasses and a nose mask on. The eyes looked familiar, but I couldn't do nothing but try to remember where I had seen him.

I was struck dumb as I remembered that he was the guy that bumped into me at the pool, but we had already entered the airport, and he was blocked by bodyguards that made way for him ad mist his sea of fans.

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!
