The place was filled with a bunch of older people and college students. What a mix was all I could think at the sight. The local university wasn't too far from here. I was going to pick that college, but decided against it. I chose one closer to my family. Mostly to appease my mom, but also for my major. They had a great nursing program. I always wanted to be a pediatric nurse. I just felt I was good with children. Also, I would have a chance to learn about different subjects, not just science. It wasn't known to be a party school.

I got lost in my thoughts when my dad asked me what I wanted. "I'll have a cheeseburger." I said on impulse. Wasn't the worst choice I could've picked. "And to drink." The man behind the counter asked. "I would like some fruit punch." He looked at me strangely. Maybe people got soda around here with their burgers. We picked up our order and chowed down. "So, who was that guy you were talking to?" My brother started. I guess he did notice all along. "First off. She wasn't a guy. And second off, we didn't even talk that much. It took his brain a minute to compute what I had just said. "Oh, okay." Was all he could reply. We finished up put meals and went sightseeing for a while. Then we thought of getting some pre-dinner ice cream. The best thing about vacation. 

We pulled up into the parking lot. Turns out there were a lot of people wanting ice cream. It took us awhile to find a spot. This was one of the best ice cream shops around here. I got out and made my way in line while my family took their time. Making my way through the crowd I spotted a familiar face. It was the girl who was working at the mini golf course. She looked back and saw me. She smiled and I started to melt. What the hell was going on with me? "Hey." She motioned for me to come over. "I have a question. Are you stalking me?" "What! No!" I stuttered in complete shock. How could she think that. "I was just kidding. I know you're here with your family." Jessica patted me on the back. "Oh, I thought you were serious." I said still flustered. 

"No, sorry. I didn't mean to get you worked up." "It's okay. I mean it." She grinned at me again. I felt my heart do a flip. I don't think I ever had a crush on a girl. Well. there was this one time I thought a girl was cute when I was younger. Maybe I was just in denial. My family appeared behind me.
