My story.

Hmm it has some mistakes, hope you like it anyway. :)
Here we go:

It was just another usual day at the hotel by the bright ocean. There were only a few clouds in the sky and the wind was blowing gently. There was no new guests around, except two. No one had been counting the days there, but it was supposed to be a midspirng day.
A slender young man was wandering around the coast, grumbling, with his hands in his pockets. His black hairas neither short nor long, his greey eyes seemed obviously confused but also a bit excited. He was like looking for something he had lost.
“Austin?” said the manager to himself, who was taking a glance at the young man from his office’s window. “Austin.”
However, Austin was too busy to realize him watch, with his head in the clouds, lost in deep thoughts. He had never wanted to come here, he even hadn’t any memories about him and his sister’s childhood. “Think it as a holiday.” He murmured patiently. “No more than a holiday.” Then, he kept on searching for his missing backpack.
He didn’t notice the sparking-eyed girl of medium height approaching either. Anyone could say she was so cheerful –maybe a bit more than necessary under those conditions- because she was smiling even when she came nearer the young man who didn’t look to be content about anything at that moment.
They accidentally ran into each other. “Ouch!” cried Austin as though he had been dreaming, but when their eyes met, he became much nicer. The girl looked extremely sorry for what had happened. There was something different about her. No, nothing at all when you take a look: her golden hair was surrounding her long face, her skin was pretty pale and she had some childish freckles. No different than a usual 21-years-old girl. But the only eye catching thing about her was the look in her giggling eyes.
-Oh sorry, said Austin.
-No problem.
-So… It’s Austin, what about you?
The girl paused for a while and slightly smiled, Austin was kind of amazed that he didn’t even wonderwhy.
-Amanda.
They sat there on a rock and talked for a few hours. Austin had already forgotten what he was doing and why. The whole world was way more meaningful than it had ever been, everything was marvellous –including the little butterflies in his stomach- and even the manager of the hotel might not be suspicious about his weird manners. But all of a sudden his backpack came up to his mind so he stared around. Then, he heard Amanda’s friendly voice:
-Is this yours?
-Oh yes! Where was it?
-Ahh I found it just over there.
-Thanks, thanks!
He looked at his watch, not sure how much time passed by. It was already half past ten. He knew he had to leave for his meeting and sighed.
-Oh no. I had better go now. I’m almost late.
He really meant what he said. He didn’t want to go away at all.
-See you soon! said Amanda and smiled expressively.
Austin grabbed his backpack and rushed into the entrance where he should have been waiting at for his stepsister. She must already have been there. He sat on a bank next to the door, and looked for the piece of paper on which some instructions about the meeting was written, for a while.
Instead, he found another one which said, “Hey brother. “

Comment by Jenny 19 hours ago: Lily, I'll prolly end up like your brother. 17 and I've never thought about driving.

Comment by Lily 1 day ago: mm my brother is 19 but he still hasnt gotten his learner's permit

Comment by Penpusher 1 day ago: That's what I thought, now I've had my license for over six months. xD I'll learn someday, maybe take a class this summer before I move out.

Comment by Lily 1 day ago: yeah, I know wht you mean... haha good point, it would be helpful to know how to fix a car.... but I've got a while to learn, I think.

Comment by Penpusher 1 day ago: I don't need somewhere specific, just general ideas of where to look. I do a lot of research too, but I find it's easier for me to implement information when I personally know how it works instead of having just read something. And then if I know it already I'll see places to mention it where I wouldn't have before. And I also feel it's a good idea to know how to fix a car. Win-win!

Comment by Lily 1 day ago: that's sounds pretty cool. Usually I just do lots of research I need something like that. But an autoshop class... in California... HMMM... yup, I've got nothing. Sorry. I don't really have much expertise in that category. ^^

Comment by Penpusher on November 19, 2009 at 9:12pm: Aww...I hope they stay intact.

Anyone have suggestions on where I should look for an auto-shop class? I feel that if I'm going to write science fiction from the point of view of a cyborg mechanic I should know something about machines. xD

Comment by Lily on November 19, 2009 at 7:23pm: hahaa Me too, in a way... They broke at the far left top corner of the glasses, not at the cetner ;_;

Comment by Penpusher on November 19, 2009 at 7:17pm: I don't have any shirts with breast pockets. xD I was sad that I couldn't rock the nerd look with the way my glasses broke. I'd be rockin' the pirate look instead. xD

Comment by Lily on November 19, 2009 at 4:36pm: naww you're picture is so cool! Keep it! My glasses broke on sunday night, my dad taped them realy subtly so no one noticed, but i was cleaning them and they broke in latin class and I had to scotch tape them... ahh I love rocking the nerd look. I sometimes carry a pen in my breast pocket, when I have shirt with a breast pocket ^_^
