CHAPTER 18
MACY
Macy started to count the number of raindrops that hit her bedroom windowâs glass. It was a rainy and dreary day in Sandpiper Cove, and she was tired of being at home, bored and alone. Both her parents had evening meetings, so they werenât going to be home until later. She wasnât sure if she could take the boredom of the day much longer, so she decided to resort to seeing what her brother was doing.
She walked over to his room and knocked on the bedroom door. She wondered if he would even be able to hear her over the loud music he was listening to. The music stopped and she heard footsteps walk towards her; Timmy opened the door suspiciously.
âWhatâs up?â he asked.
âIâm so bored. Are you doing anything?â
âYeah, Iâm getting ready for a show tonight. It starts in two hours.â
Macy groaned. âLiterally everyone has plans but me.â
âMaybe you need more friends.â Timmy shrugged.
Macy hit his arm. âI have friends. Theyâre just busy this evening or live thousands of miles away.â
âThat seems like a you issue,â he said and then shut the door.
âYou could try to not be such a stereotypical little brother!â she yelled before the music started back up again. She walked back to her room and shut the door, plopping onto her bed.
As much as she enjoyed being alone, if it went on for too long, she became antsy and started to overthink things too much. She grabbed her keys and decided she would go for a drive and just see where she ended up.
She thought about calling Oliver but chickened out before she left the house. Was it too soon after their date to get together again? It was only yesterday. She didnât want to seem too clingy.
As she drove and the rain pelted her car, the windshield wipers working double time, she thought to herself, what did it matter if they just saw each other yesterday? He had taken a chance on asking her out to dinner, so she could be bold and take a chance too. Besides, what was the worst that could happen? He says no? He could tell her he had a horrible time on their first date and didnât want to see her again.
Okay, that would be pretty terrible, but then she could just call in sick for the rest of the month until he leftâmaybe fake a case of mono?
Okay, chill out, Macy, she said to herself.
Macy pulled into the Sandpiper Inn and parked by the front door. She pulled out her phone from her purse and called Oliver.
With every ring, her heart beat faster and faster. What if he was busy? What if he didnât answerâthen what?
âHello?â he answered.
âHey, itâs Macy,â she said.
She rolled her eyes at herself. Obviously he knows who it is.
âI wasâuhâwondering if you were doing anything tonight?â she asked, her voice rising and almost squeaking at the end.
âWhat?â he almost yelled on the other side of the phone. âI canât hear you. Where are you? A tunnel?â
Macy chuckled to herself.
