INTERVIEW –
SAM SHEMELD
MEN OF OCEAN
BEACH
BUY
Today....is the day.... I, yes me, Sam aka Shem
will be interviewing the GORGEOUS Men of Ocean Beach! AHHHHHHHHHHHH! I will be
getting up close and hopefully VERY personal with the guys who have changed my
life, forever! Harley, Text, Levi, Keanu and Retro are the 'be all and end all'
of book boyfriends. I feel such a personal connection to each of the guys and
cannot wait to dive deeper into their lives.
*grinning like an idiot, silently screaming,
jumping up and down on the spot and shaking my hands in the air* *lip gloss-
check, hair looking sexual- check, glasses on so I can see what I'm writing,
grabs pen and notepad.....LET'S GO*
I walk into the room, which smells LIKE HEAVEN!
They all smell so damn good, am I salivating? Oh hell!
Sam: Hey Guys,
I'm Sam from FMR Book Grind. Thank you so much for letting me join you here
today, this interview means a lot to me and all other O.B Babes who are
absolutely addicted to your stories, your bond and.....
*looks up
and smiles HUGE at them all! God I'm acting like a teenager! WOMAN SAM! YOU ARE
A WOMAN!!!*
Wow! Yeah,
so, wow! You are all so WOW! *blushes like crazy*
Harley: It's great to meet you Sam, glad to hear you are
enjoying our shenanigans.
Keanu: *Keanu is
talking out of the corner of his mouth to Levi* Wow, Sam's hot!
Levi: Bro, you're talking too loud, she can hear you.
Now she's going red.
Keanu: Well, you got to hand it to me. I know how to
break the ice.
Text rolls his eyes at Keanu and waves to Sam.
Retro: Sam, nice to meet you, sweetheart. Cool glasses.
Sam: * Sam’s hot…..Sweetheart…..OH SWEET MOTHER OF GOD*
Sam: Ok, for those who do not have
any background knowledge of you guys, I'd like to start by asking how it was
you all met?
Retro: Childhood friends. We met in the sand pit and we
haven't looked back.
Text’s waving his phone in the air.
Harley: Sam, my brother wants your phone number so he can
give his input via message.
Sam: *NEARLY FALLING OFF THE CHAIR!!!!!!! HE WANTS MY FREAKING NUMBER!!!!!
SOMEONE SLAP ME, THIS CANNOT BE FREAKING REAL*
Levi: That’s the reason he’s giving. *wink*
Sam: *I solemnly swear, if Levi winks
again during this interview, I may just combust*
Keanu: Ahhh...
bonding in the playground... those were the days. If I recall, somebody tried
to steal my truck.
Levi: Come on bro, we were only five years old. I liked
that truck.
Harley: And I had to break up you two up because you were
fighting over that damn truck.
Retro: And that’s how our friendship started, over a
truck and a sand pit. Good times.
Sam: What brought you all and kept
you here at the beach?
Harley: College brought us all here to San Diego and
Chance has kept us all here.
Levi: It felt right to stay. We love the ocean and we
were also waiting for Faith because we had something we had to complete.
Keanu: Dallas is our home but OB is special to us all.
It’s where our lives changed dramatically and it’s where we are now firmly
planted.
Retro: I’ve got my cafe and Harley’s got his security
business, so it made sense to stick around.
Sam: Who out of you all has the busiest schedule? Do you get a lot of
downtime?
Text: My brother. He has his security empire. He makes
it look easy, but he’s the sensible one. I’ve got a pretty good job with The
Cage, my gym. I can pretty much set my own hours, but I like to be there every
day. It keeps my mind off things.
Harley: I can delegate, but my brother’s right. I have a
pretty big business to look after. I’ve always got time for the guys and
getting in a surf and a few beers.
Keanu: My bro and I have the t-shirt business which is
starting to go big, but we can work pretty cool hours. When inspiration hits, I
have to get some quotes down. I’ve had inspiration hit at the oddest times like
when I was in the middle of...
Sam: *EARS PRICK UP……PLEASE LORD LET
HIM CONTINUE*
Levi: Er... Keanu, I don’t think Sam wants to know when
inspiration can hit you. I play the
stock market and get in some modelling when I get a call, but I do enjoy my
time with Keanu and our little t-shirt gig. Keanu comes out with some pretty
cool quotes. I’ve always got time to help Retro out if he needs it too.
Retro: I’m the only one who has the nine to five type job
but that’s cool, I’ve always got downtime and always time for this crew and my
woman.
Sam: Keanu and Levi *oh my ovaries,
Levi is LOOKING AT ME! Damn, try and be sexy Sam* I love the bond between you
two! Like brothers from another mother. Is working together easy? I am
also crazy about tee's with quotes on.
What are
your favourite quotes your have printed?
Levi: Keanu is the easiest guy to work with. We are
definitely brothers from another mother. Between us we have enough arms and
legs to get the job done.
Keanu: Yeah. Couldn’t think of anybody else I would
rather work with. Present company included of course. Levi gets me and I get
him. We have always been each other’s wingman. I think the bond only got stronger
after the island. Ya know?
Levi: Yeah bro, I know. I got your back.
Keanu: We like to use inspirational quotes on our
t-shirts. Well, I’m personally quite partial to, ‘I Applaud You’
Levi: ‘Put Your Best Foot Forward’ that’s one of my faves.
Keanu: Shit Happens...But it’s How You Deal With It
Levi: Designated
Driver (on the back) Taking One ForThe
Team
Keanu: I wore that one to Joe’s Bar. Got a few nods from
the bar crowd for that one.
Sam: Text! Or shall I call you Jase?
*blushes like an idiot, damn he is just gorgeous and his stare is really intense*
um, sorry. Yeah so, I'd like to ask you how you felt when seeing Faith for the
first time in years and has she always been THE girl for you?
*Harley shuffles about in his seat*
Keanu: Oh, boy, this should be interesting.
*Text gives Keanu the bird. Keanu grins like a Cheshire
cat.*
Text: Sam, you can call me Jase. This lot are the ones
who started calling me Text. It’s their attempt at humour and it stuck. Faith,
when I first saw her again, she was recovering from Keanu’s misplaced ‘big
gun’. Faith has always been there in my mind, more so after the island. She’s
beautiful. I left Dallas, things changed in my life, things I had no control
over. I didn’t go chasing her, but then she stepped back into my life and my
soul wanted one thing, but my heart was at war with it all. Still is. It’s
complicated.
Sam: *NOW IF THAT DOESN’T GRAB YOUR ATTENTION, THERE IS NO HOPE FOR YOU!
THIS BEAUIFUL MAN IS AT WAR WITH HIS HEART AND SOUL…..TISSUES ANYONE?*
Sam: Keanu, what makes your burger
dressing so orgasmic? And is it 100% effective? *smirks at him like the cat who
caught the canary*
Keanu: Well, lovely Sam with the beautiful eyes, I
can’t tell you what makes it so orgasmic, that would be giving away my grandmother’s
recipe. You sound like you want to try my dressing. *wink* I’m sure the crew
here would be placing bets. Could be interesting? I personally haven’t lost a
bet, so I would say 100% effective. *waggles eyebrows*
Sam: *OVARIES………………..BOOM*
Sam: Retro! *HIS DREADS ARE
INCREDIBLE! Would it make me a creeper if I asked to touch them?* I hold huge
girl crushes on both your sister and your girl! What are the next steps for you
and Birdie? How is the relationship between Phoenix and Birdie?
Retro: Sam sweetheart, you look like you want to touch my
dreads. Feel free. And thank you, I think you would get along with these two
girls of mine, very well.
Birdie Evans and I are gonna get married. I know
that much. No doubt about it. We have a lot of lost time to catch up on. Birdie
Cooper has a nice ring to it, don’t you think? It’s up to Birdie when that
happens. She’s been the patient one. I’m ready whenever she is.
Phoenix is a chick I’m proud to call my sister.
Being twins, nothing gets between us and Birdie is no exception. They’re gonna
do just fine together. Life is changing and I think Phoenix will be well looked
after by a certain bar manager if she lets herself. We’ve already all got bets
on that one.
Sam: *stands from chair, and reaches over to touch Retro’s dreads. They are
so badass, quite rough and just suit him so much.*
They really are amazing!
Keanu: Hell, yeah!
Sam: Harley, oh sweet Harley *NO WAY did I just say that out loud, GROUND
OPEN UP AND SWALLOW ME WHOLE* um, I mean Harley, yeah, you seem to be the
protector out of you all. After everything you have each had to experience, is
this a role that you chose for yourself or did it just come naturally?
Harley: Hahaha. I think we should go out for a drink after
this interview and I can show you how sweet I am. You lady, are adorable.
Sam: *OH MY FREAKING SWEET JESUS! And two can play at that game sunshine, I’ll
show you just how adorable I am*
Sounds great, Harley. Now back to the question…*smiles sweetly*
Harley: That is a good question. I’m not even the oldest
out of this crew and maybe I do come with the protector label. I wasn’t on the
island, I gave my seat up and maybe guilt plays a part in my protective nature.
Maybe since that truck incident in the playground I’ve always played that role
with this crew. I have fun, but I need to know everybody is accountable and
safe. I get pissed off if shit has gone down and you haven’t yet seen me pissed
off.
Sam: Levi this next question is yours,
*this guy, he really is the most gorgeous human to walk the earth* word on the
street is that we get to know you even better in the next instalment of the OB
series. Can you give us a little inside information to what you have in store
for us?
Levi: I do know I’m gonna get me some Joy in my life.
*wink* I hear she is gorgeous, long legged and a bit of a pin up dresser. She’s
smart and can change a spare tyre. She drives a wicked car and...
Keanu: Bro, ssshhh, Emma will gag you.
Sam: *writes note on pad to bribe Emma with everything for further intel!!!*
Sam: Ok the next few questions are
going to be a lot more fun and just to give your fans that little bit more
inside information!
Sam: Who are your Celebrity Crushes?
Text: Jessica Alba, the blonde version.
Keanu: You are so transparent, bro. And don’t give me the
bird. I’m just getting ahead of you there. Mine would be...Scarlett Johansson.
She is kickass.
Levi: Cameron Diaz. The woman is fit, beautiful and I
would...
Harley: Emma Stone. She’s a little quirky. I like she’s a
red head. She’s a cool chick.
Retro: Birdie Evans. She’s my celebrity. No other chick
can be crushed upon. She’s my crush and my infinity.
Keanu: Bro, you are in LOVE!
Retro: Yes I am.
Sam: If you were stranded on a deserted
Island and could have only three things with you, what would they be?
Retro: Birdie Evans, her special toys. That would be
enough. Actually, I’ll add the Polaroid camera. *waggles eyebrows*
Harley: Surfboard and the guys. We would have a good time.
Levi: Hooters chicks. That would suffice.
Sam: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Keanu: You took my idea! Sam, would you be my date for a
deserted island? You can be my three things along with beauty and brains.
Sam: I’m sure we could work something out…
Text: Solar powered phone and a couple spare for this
lot.
Sam: Favourite song of all time?
Retro: Dido, Thank You. Love it!
Levi: You Shook Me All Night Long by ACDC. It’s a total
crowd pleaser. I envy Angus and his stage antics. When you just want to block
everything else out, pump up the volume and play it.
Harley: Green Day, Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life).
Text: Imagine by John Lennon. The lyrics talk of peace
and it just makes me think what if.
Keanu: Voodoo People by the Prodigy. I love the different
sounds in this song. It just has you moving. You can’t sit still listening to
it.
Sam: Interesting music choices there guys!
Sam: Movie! You could watch one movie for the rest of forever, WHICH ONE?
Retro: Just Go With
It. What? It was the first movie Birdie Evans and I watched together after
I got my brain back. I could listen to her repeating the lines all day. She is
so funny when she does Dolf.
Harley: Shawshank Redemption.
Sam: *Stands to high-five Harley. That movie is one of my favourites EVER*
Excellent choice, Harley!!
Levi: Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.
Text: The Wedding Singer.
Keanu: Sucker Punch, so creative.
Sam: Favourite part of a woman?
Retro: That’s easy. Just keep going south. I think I need
to go find Birdie.
Levi: Legs. Love long, sexy legs. I like all the other
bits too, but legs man here.
Harley: Eyes get my attention, but I’m a guy I love it all.
Keanu: Love it all. Boobs are nice.
Text: Good Heart. The rest is all icing.
Sam: *OH HELL NO….did I just drool? Jase is so REAL! I just…I can’t even…*
Sam: What is your poison?
Harley: Corona, beer.
Levi: Tequila. Rather handy living next to the border.
Text: Beer and Grey
Goose when the time calls for it.
Keanu: Love a good beer, but like a Whiskey.
Retro: Beer man. I’m happy to work my way through
different flavours.
Sam: Each of you Describe yourself in three words?
Harley: Protective, trustworthy, patient
Retro: Straight forward dude.
Text: Silent, complicated, loyal
Levi: fun, can sing
Keanu: humorous, forgiving, loyal
Sam: *I just adore each of these guys.*
Sam: Thank you all, so much for being a part of this interview today, guys.
It means more to me than I can explain. You are all incredible! And can I just
say that the girls who win all of your hearts are the luckiest girls in the
world! I cannot wait to post the interview on the blog for all of the readers
to see!!! *stands to kiss cheeks, and inhale all of their godlike scents*
Harley: Any time,
Sam. So how about that drink?
Retro: Now you
know what happened the last time a pretty girl came out and had a drink with
us.
Keanu: No
mocktails, those things can ruin a good night out.
Text: I’ll keep
to my own drink.
Levi: I think we
all need to come along. So what do you think, Sam?
Sam: A drink sounds like the
perfect way to finish this interview, thanks! *Remember Sam, avoid shots, they
make you giggle snort and hiccup, and absolutely NO breakdancing*
