Chapter 5: Lobster
Charlie's P.O.V.
In this heated weather I'm suprised I haven't found any misquito bites or at least I'm not aware of them. Lewis invited me to a BBQ and now I'm stuck here... Looking at a lobster on my plate... I've eaten crab but never this and I am nervous... Lewis is staring at me probably waiting for me to eat it. I take a bite at the red and white meat and it's a lot better than I've expected, it tastes like the cross between a meatier version of shrimp. And secondly, a sweeter version of crab without the fishy smell. This is chewier and a bit spongy in texture, Lewis told me it has a high amount of protein so it must be that, especially the meat in the Lobster's tail of which he gave me because he wanted me to love it. It's so good I shove bits and pieces down my throat not even thinking if I choke. "Uhh... How is it?" He asks suprised at how I am obviously enjoying it. "I- *gulp* it's so good!" I say then cough afterwards since I took such a big swallow. He thanks me then walks away in a weird manor. As he walks off I catch myself staring at someone. He's under the ocean-deck of what people go on to take more looks over the blue Titanic, liquid blanket. All I can see of him is his head and not his neck, his hair is black with a purple fringe and from what I can tell is he is staring right back at me. He is at the second closest row of poles near this beach of which are in the water and is behind it one of them while hugging the long, big piece of wood. I go over to him but stay on land. As I make my steps over to him I see he's wasn't lstaring at me but into clear space as his direction has not changed from the moment I've walked to him. "Would you like to join us over there?" I ask sounding gentle and trying not to be forcful in any way possible while pointing to the area where Lewis is. He snaps out of it and looks at me with a shocked expression while gasping loudly which causes me to ask "Are you okay?" He doesn't answer my question and just looks at me as if he's seen a creature of mythology. (Doesn't that sound familiar) "We are having Lobster." I tell him. As he hears the Lobster part he immediately licks his lips but slowly sinks his body down further till I can only see his nose to the top of his wet head. I look around him and at the pole he's behind and holding onto I see something purple in it of a peculiar shape poking out and is long as the half of a green anaconda. (That would be about two meters) I don't know why but I feel as if I should bond with him and I make a silly joke "Now, as the white kids say on those videos... WHAT ARE THOSE!" I shout but not scream. He looks at me in suprised and looks at what I'm pointing too but then his face goes from shock to being mortified. He looks at what I'm pointing to from the back of the pole of which he's at then gasps then pulls it back. I want to take another look but he looks scared enough of me as if he's a sterio-typical neanderthal finding out about a mobile phone which gives them quite a scare.
Special thanks to thepixelkitti for making that masterpiece of which is the image at the top!
