James

I took Katie out of my mind and went back to the pool. Logan was helping Camille practice for an audition and Kendall went to the park with Jo even though he was supposed to be here with me. Carlos was going to do one of his famous jump-from-the-roof-into-the-pool stunts and I couldn't miss that. I took a seat in my usual spot. Why would Katie say something like that? Does she like me, or something? Even if she does, I would never go there. She Kendall's little sister and since I've known Kendall my whole life, she's my little sister. I should just find a girlfriend or something to get my mind off of this.

When I pulled myself out of my thoughts I saw Carlos in mid-air with his helmet still on. That's probably the smartest thing he's done whenever he does these stunts. The splash of the water soaked me and everyone else around the pool area, yet everybody cheered for him. I can't believe he got my hair wet. Katie walked into the pool area with just a pair of jean shorts and a bikini on underneath it. She walked cautiously trying not to slip on all of the water that Carlos splashed out of the pool. By now the only empty seat was next to me. She set her bag down and looked at me.

"That must have been some splash." She looked uncomfortable like she didn't want to take her dress off.

"Yeah it was. Too bad you missed it." I looked away for a second and when I looked back her dress was halfway off of her. It felt so wrong to stare at her. But at the same time I couldn't take my eyes off of her. She was hot, and Mrs. Knight definitely did not pick this one out. I pulled my eyes away before she looked back at me. I looked at her from the corner of my eye and she looked disappointed. She's got to try a lot harder than a bikini to make me betray my best friend. Sorry Katie.


Katie

I stayed at the pool for a while and made small talk with James. He seemed distant so I didn't push it trying to get a full conversation. After a while his one-word responses were getting annoying. "I'm getting a smoothie, you want one?"

"Yeah." Really? That's al I get from you?

"What kind?" I already knew he wanted the strawberry and banana smoothie.

"Get me the strawberry and banana one."

"Wow, seven whole words! And I though one word was your limit." I said and I walked. He got up and followed me.

"What's that supposed to mean?" We were at the edge of the pool when we grabbed my shoulder to stop me.

"We've been sitting out here for an hour and a half and every time I try to start a conversation with you, you reply with one word. That's what it means." I turned around to walk away again when someone bumped into me. I fell back and pushed James into the pool with me. As much as I would like to say I did it on purpose to wet his hair, it was by accident. I got to the surface and was surprised to see that James was holding me. I looked up and he immediately dropped his hands from my waist. Here we go again.


James

Katie fell into the pool and I attempted, yet failed miserably, to catch her before she fell into the water. What I'm the most upset about is the fact that I wet my hair. I'm not even mad about the little fight thingy that just happened before this because really, she'll get over it and go back to normal tomorrow morning and make me eggs and bacon without even having to ask. I realized that my hands were around her waist and I dropped them instantly.

"You wet my hair!" She looked like I just slapped her in the face.

"This isn't my fault. Don't even try to blame it on me." Her words came out like she was disgusted with me.

She walked out of the pool, grabbed her towel, and went inside. She'll be back.


Katie

Did he really just say that to me? I practically ran to our apartment and into my room. I was soaking wet but I didn't care. I lay on my bed thinking is it really worth it? I only went to the pool today because I heard what he and Kendall were talking about. I wanted to prove him wrong. I'm not just 'Kendall's little sister'. Most of all, I don't want to be like a sister to him. When I talked to him in the lobby it seemed like this could actually work. He might actually see I'm not just this little girl. But then at the pool, giving me one-word answers and blaming me for being pushed into the pool. How in the world is that my fault?

It was about a half hour later when I heard the front door open. I got off the bed to see who it was and realized I was still in my soaking wet jeans and bikini top. I looked down at my bed and it looked like those crime scenes that have the white tape on the floor where the person died. Nice, now I have to change the sheets, again. I took a quick shower and threw on shorts and a tank top. All that thinking made me pretty hungry.

I went into the kitchen almost not even noticing a gorgeous guy sitting on my couch next to Carlos. I turned around to see them watching tv.

"Hey Carlos." They turned around and the guy smiled.

"Hey. Oh Katie, this is Brody. He's new to the Palm Woods." He had dark brown hair, not too short but not long. He had green eyes, adorable, and perfect white teeth. How I notice teeth before other things is beyond me. He looked buff from where I was standing and looked tall, even though he was sitting down. I know, very vague description but he looked like a typical California guy. I wonder where he's from.

"Nice to meet you." Carlos paused the tv and walked over to me.

"Hey can you make us some food?"

"Sure what are you in the mood for?" I had a feeling he was going to say corndogs and fish sticks so I went to the freezer.

"Fish sticks and corndogs?" Was he asking me?

"Sure it'll be ready in like 10, 15 minutes, okay?" He seemed pretty happy.

"Thanks." He kissed my forehead, which is weird considering I'm almost taller than him.

I put the food in the oven and went into my room. I heard most of Carlos and Brody's conversation through the thin walls. "She doesn't mind cooking for you?"

"No, she makes all of us breakfast every morning. She likes cooking." I do like to cook.

"Oh, how old is she?" Carlos took a while to answer. I bet he's counting on his fingers.

"Uh, 16 I think. Yeah, that sounds right." I heard the timer ding and walked out of my bedroom. I was one of those people who care about the presentation of food when you serve it so it took me a little bit longer than Carlos would have liked for the food to be ready.

When I severed the food I was really proud of myself. I made corndogs and fish sticks look nice and elegant. How many people can say that? James walked through the door looking pissed. "What's wrong man?" Carlos always cares about how people are doing. He is so sweet.

He mumbles "Ask Katie." And the guys look at me. James walked into his room lightly slamming the door. Carlos was waiting for an answer. "Well?"

"We got into a little fight, someone pushed me into the pool and James wet his hair." I said it like he should have known this already. He just looked confused.

"You were at the pool with James?"

"Yeah." Brody glanced at me then back to his food.

"What was the fight about?"

"I was trying to talk to him but he only gave me one-word answers." I waited a few seconds. "It's nothing Carlos. He's just being a baby." Carlos stared at me for what felt like 10 minutes but was only really 20 seconds.

"Okay." He was back to normal now. I sat down and put a few fish sticks on my plate. I'm not really a corndog girl.

"So, where are you from?" I said, trying to make small talk. Hopefully he's better at this than James is.

"New York City. We moved here over the week-end." Wow, the big city.

"Really, that's cool. Is it as crazy as everyone says it is?"

"Only some parts. It's usually like any normal city. The busy places are downtown."

"What part did you live in?"

"Upper west side on West End Ave. It's a really quite place."

"It sounds like a nice place to live." I smiled and he smiled back.

"I was."

James walked out of his room with his hair dried and a new outfit on. He sat down next to Carlos at the other end of the table. "Did Katie make this?" He spoke like I wasn't even there.

"Yup." Was all Carlos said before stuffing his face with another corndog. I got up to get him a plate. I hate serving people like I'm a servant, but I like to be nice. I sat back down watching as the guys eat like animals. Soon there was nothing left. "Something wrong Katie? You didn't even eat." I realized I only ate half of a fish stick.

"I'm not hungry." I looked around the table to see that they didn't have drinks. It really bothers me when someone doesn't have something to drink while they eat. "You guys want something to drink?"

"Do we have soda?" Why wouldn't we?

"Yeah, you want?"

"Well, since you offering." I laughed and got up.

"How about you two?"

"Water." Wow James, really, that's all you're going to say?

"I'll come with you and see what you have." James' head shot up for a second and went back down just as fast.

The kitchen was about 3 feet away from the table, but it seemed like enough to talk to Brody. I opened the fridge for him to look in. "So, see anything you like." After I said it I realized how it sounded.

"Yeah actually, I do." He closed the fridge and looked at me.

"That was corny, but cute." I said it with a smile on my face.

"I try." I stood there staring at him. Maybe he could help me get my mind off of James for a little while.


So I'm wondering, Brody and Katie are deff going to date but i don't know how i should end the relationship. Tell me how you want it to go down. I hope I'm not ruining it for you guys. 33
