we had arrived at a parade of shops and had gone into a couple, not finding anything particularly interesting. going from shop to shop, trevor had his hands moving from my waist to lower back every now and then. making butterflies flutter in my stomach.

we walked towards a shop that had stalls outside of it, with shelled and threaded bracelets filling the shelves. this was one of my favourite parts of a holiday. it felt so nostalgic. getting a bracelet from wherever, saying you'll never take it off, and then embarrassingly getting it confiscated by a teacher of the first day back. it was a cycle.

as my sandals clacked on the stone floor my eyes scanned over the bracelets. i had noticed trevor already had two in his hand. a blue one with a gold starfish charm and a light orange braided one. i swear i saw another one but he put them into his other hand, or our my site.

i finally found three bracelets. one for delilah, one for myself and the last one for trevor. delilah's was a violet colour and had white pearls looping in between the thread. the one i had picked for me was a pink threaded one that had shells attached to it. and trevor's was a simple black and white twisted bracelet. i picked it knowing he's wouldn't want anything flashy. everyone had got their picks and i had got an anklet and a necklace as well.

everyone had already paid and were waiting for me outside the small shop. i smiled at the elderly women who stood behind the counter as i placed the items down.

"would you like a bag?" she offered.

"yes please" she placed the jewellery into a brown paper bag and slid it over the counter.

"€7.50 please" she said. i fished in my pocket for change, when trevor popped out of thin air beside me. he pulled out a €10 note and handed it to the woman. she raised her eyebrows at me and nodded. almost approving trevor.

"i can pay for myself y'know" i looked up at him but for him to not answer.

"keep the change" he smiled to the elderly woman, who winked at me as i said my thanks.

"i know you can pay for yourself but why do you want to when i can do it for you?" trevor connected our fingers as we carried on waking down the cobble stoned street.

we went in and out of a couple more shops, finding little things to buy. i had gotten a magnet that had a sunset beach on it. that was one of my little things, collecting magnets from places i've been. trevor had gotten a keyring like he said for his friend and it looked like jamie had gotten some sort of starfish statuette.

i looked over and saw them standing together holding something i couldn't see and giggling like a couple of school girls. so i went over to investigate.

"what's so funny?" i asked smiling, seeing trevor's eyes squint as he snickered. he held up a shot glass that was carved as a topless woman. i shook my head and grinned.

"this is what you're laughing at?" i asked and they both nodded their heads. "you too are such children" i giggled. they both then proceeded to pick up at least eight of the small shot glasses and walked to the counter and placed them on it. i decided not to include myself in whatever they were planning on doing with them. it was probably something harmless, they were probably just getting them for their friends back home.

we left the shop and carried on walking in the scorching hot sun. it had to be at least 30 degrees. as i placed my sunglasses over my eyes, sherri spoke up.

"shall we get ice cream or something? y'know to cool down" trevor, jamie and i nodded in agreement and we headed towards the sign that had an ice cream on it and writing in croatian. everyone sighed as we entered the shop as a wave of very cool air washed over us. there were aa couple of people in the shop, sitting on a bar looking out of the window. we all took a minute to decide what ice cream we wanted and we ordered. jamie got cookie dough, ri got coffee, trevor got rocky road and i got chocolate chip. we said our thanks to the cashier and sat down at a table with four seats.

we sat in a comfortable silence as we hungrily ate our ice cream.

"can i try some of yours?" jamie asked sherri and she nodded sliding it over to him. he'd regret asking. as he brought the ice cream to his mouth and took a bite he made a face as to say 'this is the most disgusting thing i've ever tasted and if i don't get it out of my mouth soon i'm gonna die.' everyone laughed at his reaction and he spat it out into a tissue trev had picked up from the counter. once jamie had it out he took a second to pull himself together before talking.

"that was really awful" he simply said, squinting at the leftover taste still in his mouth.

"oh shush you're just being dramatic" sherri said brushing him off. trevor took his plastic spoon and scooped a bit of my ice cream and ate it. so i did the same to his and we eventually ended up finishing each others ice creams.
