Broken and Fearless // C.B.

Chapter 5

Elton threw out an offer of ten dollars to anyone who could jump, land on a dolphin, and ride it home. I climbed onto the railing while the guys were making dolphin calls. Colby pulled me down as he made a weird noise causing the dolphins to dart off. Sam was the next to get onto the railing, and he was being weird.

We kept trying to touch the dolphins and Elton announced that he was feeling nauseous, but excited. I pulled some ginger candy out of my pocket. "I always carry some with me. You never know when someone's gonna feel nauseous."

We headed back to the RV to drive to our next location. I rested my head against the couch and sighed. "Well, that was fun. Now, coffee."

Colby laughed and handed me a cup of hot coffee. "I figured you'd want some, and they had some on the boat."

"Thanks."

"So, Jules, tell me about yourself."

"What do you want to know?"

"Siblings?"

"I'm one of three. Well, three of three. I have a brother and sister the same age as me. Triplets."

"Whoa. Isn't that hard on your parents? What do your siblings do?"

"I'm sure it was difficult on my parents. Jenna is a model and studying fashion design at the Massachusetts School of Art and Design. Jackson is a student at UCLA studying graphic design and he directs films in his free time. I need to connect up with him when I get back from New Zealand."

I sent out a message and rolled my eyes. "Fun fact, my brother watches TFIL and wants us to date, but says if you hurt me, he'll find you and murder you in your sleep."

"But we're not even together."

"I know, but that doesn't matter. Jackson is super protective of me and Jenna and wants to make sure we're safe. I'll introduce him to you and tell him we're not together. Might as well text him now." I sent another message to my brother and scoffed. "Jackson, stop teasing me for once."

Colby laughed. "Siblings can certainly be annoying. Gage, my brother, keeps teasing me about you, encouraging me to ask you out."

"Well, don't do so now. Let's wait and become better friends first."

"I'm alright with that."

We decided to do a last minute meet up in Wellington because Elton wanted Red Bull. I wanted Dunkin, so we'd posted that.

Red Bull was brought for Elton, and Dunkin' for me. The guys started yelling and getting excited about the dumbest things.

Corey got the idea to present the Red Bulls to Elton as an offering, so we circled him and started humming and people gave him Red Bull.

Day 8

Sandboarding was our event for the day. Sam stood next to a sign as he drank water.

We climbed up the sand dunes and the boys were already tired about a quarter of the way up. The sand was hot, and the boys kept complaining.

Corey wanted a rest area or a bed, but there was none in sight. The boys kept taking time to rest and I was getting tired of it. I wanted to get to the top and sandboard down.

We finally got to the top, and sandboarded down before climbing back up.

Colby spit and the wind made it land on Corey. The rain had started, which I didn't care about.

Sam and Colby slid down first, with GoPros, and poor Colby got sand in his eyes.

Elton and I went, and he wanted to go with the drone, which he managed to do. I suppose it helped that I was his eyes. Colby surfed down and I heard him yelling from the bottom.
