Hey guys so I did a story a long time ago and then I stopped playing for 7 months ? A lot of people actually like it surprisingly So I've decided to make a new one ️ It's romantic just like the last one, hope you guys like it This'll be a short one, just a preview to see if people like it if you do, comment and if you have any tips I'll gladly take them 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 That summer was one of the hottest summers in Ridge Lake's history. Everyone was inside with the AC blasting. Those fun summer outside sports weren't played, nobody went to the beach, nobody walked their dogs. It was too hot and everyday the "authorities" told us to "Stay inside, only go outside if you have to. If going outside bring plenty of water." I could recite that in my sleep to this day. Only the rich kids left town. Or so we thought. I was only 16 that summer. It might've been one of the hottest summers but I can tell you it was the best summer of my life. It was the summer of first everything. The summer of my first love, first kiss, first everything in my life. He was 19. And way out of my league. What happened next? Nobody, not even I could guess. Not in a million years. This isn't just my story it's his too.
Here's another entry guys ️ 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 June 20th "Macie wake up already! We decided today was the day we'd clean this filthy house!" "Oh my god mom I'm coming! Stop screaming I just woke up!" What she said was pretty true, our house was filthy but the best part was it was slapped down right between the lake and the beach. It was a smaller house, I mean it's only my mom and I. But it was a house perfect for two. I was abandoned, my mom was lonely. So on a rainy summer afternoon my mother decides to get a baby. If she can't make one she might as well buy one right? Wrong. I wasn't "adopted" from some agency where they love every single one of the kids, no. I was a "dumpster baby", literally. While walking down Main Street my mother heard crying. Being her adventurous curious self she wandered on over and found me. Instead of taking me to the authorities like any other person would do, she took me home. And she made me hers. From then on out my entire life everyone chose me for everything. Can only pick one friend to go to Rickety Bridge Amusement Park? Macie. To get ice cream with? Macie. To pick for your kickball team? Macie. No matter the situation I was always chosen, like I was just a lucky one and everyone but me could sense it. Everyone knew I was adopted before I did, my mother pale with small tiny bones and black curly hair. And me tan with light amber hair, freckles and big boned but skinny as a pole. We were opposite in every way. She loved hugs, I hate human contact, she loved to sleep, I was nocturnal, she loved art, I loved books. But there was one similarity between us, we loved adventure. We'd always go on trips in our little bug down the West coast, go on every ride. Some say adventure is good for the soul but this summer, I should've ignored adventure and kept to myself because he had adventure written all over him. And I loved it. 〰〰 "Morning Bub, how'd you sleep?" She said with way too much pep in her voice. I replied grumpily,"Just fine until you woke me up" and gave her a nasty teenage look. "I made you pancakes? Blueberry butterscotch, you're favorite." The thing is she only ever gave me pancakes when 1. Something bad has happened or 2. When something amazing is going to happen. "What's the special event mom?" "There's no special event... Not exactly" she sounded insanely reluctant. "Mom what is it? Is it bad or good? At least give me that much." "Sweetie it's not good nor bad it's just... News? But you have to promise me you won't get mad Bub. Pinky swear?" She held out her pinky in front of my face. I took it with mine. "Okay fine. Pinky swear. Now tell me!" I was nearly jumping out of my seat. "So... You know Mark?" She actually sounded afraid, like saying his name was saying "Voldemort" in Harry Potter. "Yeah. You're dumba- I mean boyfriend..." She looked at me scoldingly, "Yes my boyfriend, well he wants me to go with him to Europe this summer... All summer but, it would just be him and I... And not you.." I had no words. I just looked at her while we were still holding pinkies. Oops. I broke the pinky promise. "Mom! What the hell?! You can't just leave me here! It's over 98° every single day I can't do anything and you just leave me?! How could you do that to me!" "Bub, it's okay, calm down. I didn't say I was going to go... I just thought it could be a nice thing for me... Ever since the gallery went under and it had to close I haven't been as happy and I think this would help me." She said so calm, I nearly ripped my ears off. I took a deep, deep breath, "Mom... You can't play that card on me it isn't fair. You know I want you happy but I just... What am I supposed to do?" "Well the Troys will be home all summer and I asked Linda to check on you everyday to make sure you're safe, you'll be okay it's not like I'm dying, I'll be back in August." She sounded so happy, oblivious to my pain. "The Troys? I hate the Troys mom. I hate them. They're rich stuck up little brats and Mrs.Troy hates me right back. Can't I go stay with one of my friends?" "No I'm sorry Bub but you have to stay here and take care of Puddle." I'm sure she loves that dog more than me. But it's kinda hard not to love her. "But mom..." I said with one last push. "I'm sorry Bub. I love you." She kissed me on the forehead let go of my pinky and went back to the pancakes. And with that my summer was set. Me thinking it would be the worst summer of my entire life ended up being the best, better than I could ever imagine.
June 25th "Bye sweetie" my mom said as she kissed me on the forehead. She was leaving today to go on the trip with her stupid boyfriend. I was beyond angry. We were in front of the cab saying goodbye before she left me for two months. "Bye mom... Have a fun trip..." I said with coldness in my voice. "Bub it's only for the summer I'll be back home as soon as you know it, I left money for you on the counter and you can call me whenever you need me. Mrs.Troy will be able to help you with anything and she'll check on you, okay?" "Yeah yeah mom I'm 16 I can handle myself I know what to do, I love you." I hugged her tightly and lingered for a little while. "Goodbye Bub have a good summer" she said as she got into the cab, then it drove away slowly but surely. Then she was gone for a whole two months. 〰〰 *knock knock knock* "Macie?! It's Mrs.Troy!" "Coming!"I yelled as I ran down the stairs and over to the door. "Hi Mrs.Troy," I slowly opened the door "How're you?" "Oh hi Macie, I'm fine thank you. Your mother just told me to check on you every now and then" Her smile was as fake as her skin. "Okay well... I'm fine. Thanks for checking.." I was about to close the door when she put her freshly manicured hand up. "I just wanted to let you know that I won't always be home to check on you, I'm head of the board at the country club." I had to hold back my laughter. "Okay... So am I just not gonna be checked on even though you promised my mom?" I said with so much attitude I shocked myself. "No. My son will come over and check on you instead." She could sense the attitude too I guess. "Well. It was nice to see you Macie have a good day" she waved her little manicured hand at me and walked away. Thank god.
