Chapter One (The News)
"Simon! Can you come down here for a minute?!" Eric Camden yelled up the stairs. Eric turned and looked at his wife. "Are we doing the right thing? Sending him away like this?"
"Were not sending him away. Were letting him take his mind off things by going somewhere. And Blair will be there to help him."
Eric nodded and sighed.
"Yeah Dad?" Simon said stepping down onto the last step.
"Well we have just been informed that a friend of ours, he owns a beach house in Florida."
"Dad -"
"Just listen. And he's going to be in Glen oak for a while with his daughter. And we thought maybe you could go spend time at the beach house. you know to clear your head before heading off to college. And his daughter Blair will go with you in case you need anything."
Simon sighed. "I don't know I was kinda just gonna pack my stuff you know? I have a lot to pack."
"Simon at least meet them. They are coming over soon." Mrs. Camden said.
"Alright. But I don't think I'll want to go." Simon said. He walked back upstairs. Annie smiled and walked into the kitchen to start dinner. Eric walked into his office.

"Kevin? Are you up here?" Lucy said walking into the apartment her and her husband Kevin lived in.
"Yeah!" He walked out of the bathroom. "Hey something wrong?" he asked walking over a kissing her.
"No.Yeah.I don't know.Mary and Carlos. They are looking for a place to live and well they need somewhere to stay for a while. And they would stay in the house but Matt and Sarah are back visiting for a few weeks. And well I was thinking."
"You were thinking that they could stay up here with us until Matt and Sarah leave or they find a place of their own?"
"Yeah."
"I don't know Luc I mean. It's kinda small and then adding them too it?"
"I know Mary and she'll be up late so we could get up at normal time and do what we need, and then she'll get up later. Everything will run like clockwork."
Kevin looked at Lucy and sighed. "Okay but only because you want this so bad." He said kissing her again.
"Thank you so much! I love you."
"I love you too."

"Matt. Hurry up were going to miss our flight. "
"Alright. I just can't get a hold of mom and dad. Someone is on the darn phone."
"We'll call them from the airport in Glen oak."
"Okay, okay." Matt grabbed his bags and walked out the door with his wife.
They made it just in time to catch their plane.
"I don't know who is on the phone but I want to find out."
"Matt you know how it is at the house. Everyone needs the phone at some point. And if you don't get a hold of them we'll surprise them. They like that. And I'm sure they need that right about now."
"Yeah you're right I guess they do."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- -----------------------
ding, dong. "Eric that's them!"
Eric walked to the door just as Annie and Simon got there. He opened the door. "Hey Mark. Nice to see you again." Eric shook his hand and let him and his daughter in. "This must be Blair?"
"Nice to meet you Reverend Camden." Blair said shaking his hand then Annie's. Blair turned to Simon. "And you must be Simon?"
"Yeah."
"Nice to meet you. I hear we might be spending some time together."
"Maybe."
"How about we go sit down in the other room." Annie said leading them into the living room. "Blair always goes to the beach house by herself or with friends.And so she knows her way around there pretty well." Mark told Annie, Eric and Simon. Simon looked at Blair. He didn't want to admit it but she was pretty. She had brown shinny hair, brown eyes. And sounded very smart. He still didn't know if he wanted to go to Florida. Would it really help him clear his mind or was it just to get him out of the house. He didn't know.
"Well Simon do you think your up to taking a week to go to Florida?" Mark asked him.
"Simon nodded. "Yes. I want to go." What did he just say. He just told them he would go.
"Great! Eric Annie when would he be ready to leave?" Mark asked
"Um tonight maybe."
"Okay well we'll come back later then." Mark said. He and Blair left.
