“Collide”

I've been in Newquay for a month and I love my home. I love being close to my parents and my wonderful friends. I can't even begin thinking about going back to New York alone. I think I'd hate it.

I've been to see Bonnie and Jezza a few times at their home and they're really good company. I always feel like there is something left unsaid, like they want to tell me something. I can’t put my finger on but probably think that they don’t want to mention Jordan. I know he is a big part of Jezza’s life and it’s obviously just awkward. Tonight I am going out with Bonnie into town. It's the first time I’ve been out drinking since I've come home and I'm actually looking forward to it.

This afternoon I sit on my veranda overlooking the beach, watching the surfers out on the waves. I let my mind drift to years ago when Jordan taught me how to surf. I wasn't any good but I only did it because it meant he would rub against me and hold me tight. I smile at the memories and I look out at the surfers. I can see one just sitting on his board looking in my direction. I can feel my hairs standing up on my arms and I start to feel little electrical impulses all over my body!

I keep staring and I know then that the surfer is Jordan. I stand and walk to the edge of the veranda and lean against the rail, putting my hand up against my face to shield my eyes. It doesn't help me see any better, but I know he can see me and I believe he knows it's me.

How am I so sure it is him? I remember the night of the pool party when I could feel him watching me, that's how I feel now. Why does he still affect me? After all these years, why have I never forgotten him? Why have I never stopped thinking of him? I stand at the railing for about twenty minutes just watching him on his board and then I have to drag myself away. I have to get ready to go out and meet Bonnie.

I go back inside and climb the stairs thinking about what I will wear. I'm not going to make a huge effort, I'm not out to catch a man. I'm going out to catch up with my best friend.

I decide to wear a simple cut black dress, low sweetheart neckline with a nipped in waist which has a couple of diamantes on it. I wear low-heeled pumps with the dress. I apply a little make up and then just mess up my hair a bit and walk the short distance to the pub we are meeting at.

I see Bonnie as soon as I walk in the pub. She has on a short black skirt with ripped tights and her doc martins. She also has a purple top on tonight for a splash of colour.
