    Beach Party

    " Sit still Lina!"

    " I'm trying! You can't expect me to sit still when I'm nervous about something like this," I said back. This was terrible. I'm getting ready for my high school graduation knowing that im only 16. Not everyone expects a 16 year old to graduate but here I am. My sister insists on doing something complicated with my hair but I want to let it fall down my back like any other day.

    " Lila," I whined, " there are other things we need to worry about like my clothes and the weather and..."

    "Stop whining and relax. It will be warm and sunny today and you are going to wear the red and black dress i just got for you. Stop worrying about the little stuff. If you want to worry about something, worry about your beach party your supposed to be having."

    I knew she was right. I had planned a beach party for all of the graduates of Epcot High. It was going to be fun. Everything was already planned out and we were just going to lay back and relax. She suddenly froze and I turned around to see what was wrong. She starred into nothingness and then looked at me. She saw the worry in my eyes. " Everything is fine." I knew she knew something and I also knew she wasn't going to tell so I didn't bother to ask whats wrong. She quickly turned me around and braided my reddish-brown hair swiftly. Then all of a sudden I heard a knock at the door. My brother Seth opened the door. " Come on Lina. We are running late and everyone is waiting for you. Lets go!"

    I quickly changed into my dress with Lila's help. I grabbed my blue and white gown and draped it over my arm, put my shoes on and ran to the car. I opened up the door and slid in. Seth was already in and Kyle was at the wheel. Lila followed me in and told Kyle to drive. He sped to my school with no problem and I jumped out the car before the car could stop. I ran in line behind Raeshon where I belong. They were calling off names and i heard me and Raeshawns name being called. When we got to the principal, he congradulated us, " Congradulations Mr.Saige! Congradulations Ms.Song."

    I ran over to where my friends Maria, Summer, and Antoin were and Raeshawn was right behind me. "Hey guys! Are all of you coming to my beach party?"

    They looked at me and looked at each other and said of course. Summer and Maria came to me and said, " Are those cute brothers of yours coming? We would surely want to get to know them."

    " They will be coming to the party to supervise for the first half, then they will be leaving. They said they trust me enough to keep the party going until it's time to end it."

    "Cool!" they both exclaimed then summer asked," Have you bought your swim suit yet?"

    " Of course I have. Remember that I have Lila as sister. She always has me prepared. I'm also wearing my new beach outfit that I showed you! I think Michael is calling you on your cell Summer."

    " Thanks!"

    Behind me appeared my sister. " Are we going to just sit here or are we going to go home and get ready for your party?" I looked at her and she puled me to the car. Kyle and Seth were already snickering by the time I got there. We drove to the house where my stuff was laid on my bed. I ran into the house only to find my self going up the stairs without thinking. I ran into my room and Lila was right behind me. "Do you need any help with your close before you rip them?" She didn't wait for my response. She grabbed my towel and sunscreen in the bag while I started to take off my clothes. Lila helped me put on my bikini and i put my beach outfit over it. I let my hair fall down my back and I put my designer glasses on. When I was finished, we were in the car and off to the beach. I sat up front and let the wind blow in my hair while Kyle made the car go 80 m.p.h. We were at the beach in less than 20min. When we arrived, everything was already set up and almost everyone was there. The only few people that was missing were the freshmen. Other than that everyone was at my party waiting for me to start it. I walked out the car and everyone turned to stare at me. I heard gasps and faint whispers about my beauty. I smiled and turned to everyone. "What are you waiting for!? Lets get this party started!" I screamed. At that moment, the music started and everyone headed around me. I headed for the water and everyone followed. Raeshawn was acting like he was my boyfriend and carried me out into the water. I splashed him and he splashed me back. I looked at my brothers and they stared at me with a very funny look. I knew that look anywhere and it meant have fun but don't have too much fun.

    A few hours passed and my brothers left the party. It was twilight and I knew it was time to get out of the water. I let Raeshawn pick me up and take me out of the water.He was so strong but gentle, he made me seem as light as a feather. I went to go and change. When I came back, everyone was dancing to their own beat under the moon. My friend Shanon snuck some beer to the party and half of us got drunk. I was one of them and before I knew it, I was passed out.
