"We need a club name," Katie said one night before taking a sip of her lemonade.
Danny frowned. "A club?"
Ryder raised an eyebrow. "I wasn't aware we were in a club."
Katie sat her drink between her knees as she sat up, eyes shining in the moonlight. "We meet here every night of the week, almost like we're an unofficial club."
Sid made a face. "Don't think I actually like any of you. I'm just here because I'm bored," he declared and took a swing of his drink.
"I'm sure you could find better things to do than hang out with us," Ryder scoffed, and he took a drink to hide his smirk.
The pirate rolled his eyes. "Yeah, well, I actually came here for the girl. I didn't know you and that red-haired dork would be here, too."
"Hey!" Danny cried.
Katie cocked an eyebrow in the air. "Sid, you have red hair."
"Besides, everyone knows pirates are bigger dorks than daredevils," Ryder added just for the fun of it.
Sid pursed his lips. "I'd rather be a pirate dork than a law-abiding citizen," he mocked. "Dude c'mon, you have a freaking ATV. Why aren't you racing people with it?"
"Cause it's dangerous?"
"Or maybe you know you'd lose."
Ryder argued, "More like I know I'd win, and I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings."
Sid's mouth dropped open just a little bit. He looked at Katie and Danny. "Did you guys hear that? I think baby Ryder was trying to trash talk."
Katie sighed. "We've gotten off topic, guys."
The pirate downed the last of his drink and tossed the bottle to the side. "I accept your challenge, Ryder. First one to your beach tower thing wins."
Ryder smirked. "You're on."
