Heaven in Devon

The very beginning.

I still remember to this day the way it felt when she told me. When she told me we was moving away from my childhood home, from my family. She told me we needed a new start, but I was four. What four year old needs a new start! I understand that she had split from my dad, that doesn't mean I needed to as well. I still wonder if she only moved because she had met someone new and wanted to be with them, or maybe she was the reason? My mum always made out that my dad was the bad guy, yes he wasn't always the most hands on dad, but we got there in the end. When we finally moved to the big city of Manchester it was hard. I struggled changing schools and making friends, but when I say it got harder as I reached year ten, I mean IT GOT HARDER. Hey, I'm Kara and I'm about to tell you about the best time of my life!
I had been counting down the days for a month and it was finally here. It was the day. I get to go to Devon! Let me fill you in real quick - my cousin was having a party and was like "You are totally coming. I don't care what you say!" Acting like i'd miss a party. The party was on the Saturday and I was waiting for my dad to pick me up from Manchester to take me to Devon (keep in mind that its about a six hour journey) and I was at home stressing that we wouldn't make it there in time. It ended up being twelve o'clock when my dad finally got me, when we was in the car I had a full breakdown about how shit my life is in Manchester and how I can't wait to move back with him. We actually made it! So, I got my dad to take me straight to my cousins house (her name is Lila), when we got there I've never felt so happy in my life. We ran to each other and it was the best hug I've had in a long time. There was some people there that I hadn't seen for quite a while, and some people I had never met, but I knew them through Lila.
"Kara! Hurry the fuck up and get ready we are leaving in half an hour!" Lila screams at me and I reply with "Okay okay calm it." I get dressed and start speaking to Jamie Paul, but there are two Jamie's so for the sake of the story he is called JP. I had never met JP before but I had met Jamie Evans, we went to nursery together, because he was there it wasn't so awkward I guess.
We all started walking to the beach where the party was at first. It was pretty funny to be honest, you could hear all the bottles clanking together in the pure bags that we had. JP, Jamie and Tyler decide they want chip and leave me and Lila with the hundreds of bags of drinks to walk the rest of the way to the beach. It took us a while but we got there in the end and I got to catch up with a few girls that I hadn't seen since summer, so that was nice. By the time everyone ended up getting there I was already drunk as fuck, I regret some of the things I'm about to tell you so much! Me, JP and Lila shared a cig and eww I'm never doing that again. This party is where I become a TOTAL SLAG! This is just the beginning...
