Chapter 2: Rough Welcome Back

Huntington Beach, California

Huntington Beach, Shore House 5:00- Evening

Arriving first to the shore house before anyone else were Beck and Jade, this time around unlike last time, there was no one guarding the house. Their was only a paper welcome sign on the front door and that was it, but apart from that, the house seemed to have had some work done. It was a lot bigger, and the other houses near it were torn down to make room for a pool area. Beck parked his truck around the house and grabbed his bags and went up the remodeled steps to enter the house. Everything inside stood the same but with a few remodeled parts to the kitchen and living room area.

Jade went walking pass all that and told Beck they would be taking a top room, Beck didn't argue with her and only followed.

Arriving second to the shore house was Trina and Robbie, Robbie saw Beck's red avalanche parked around the house and knew he and Jade arrived first. Trina told Robbie to find a good parking spot behind Beck's truck. Once parked, Robbie and Trina grabbed their bags and dragged them to the steps of the house and into the shore house, inside they saw Beck eating an apple in the kitchen waving hello to them.

"Hey Beck how are you buddy?" Robbie casually asked him.

"I'm good Robbie, you guys need any help?" Beck offered.

"Don't bother baby, Trina and Robbo have it, right you two?"

"Kiss my ass Bitch" Trina replied back to her, "Ooh was that suppose to hurt my feelings, and also it'll take all day to kiss your ass, am I right Robbie?"

"I don't kiss it Jade, I hit it"

"ROBBIE DON'T TALK TO WITCHES!"

Robbie followed Trina to a bedroom on the first floor, Jade went over to go join Beck in the kitchen, waiting for their other friends to show up.

The third couple to arrive was not surprisingly Cat and Andre, a Parking space was hard to find so he parked his car on another block not to far from the shore house, He and Cat pulled their things out from his car and trunk and crossed the street. Once up the steps and inside the house, Cat and Andre got a right welcome from Beck and Robbie.

"Andre my man how you been, had a safe trip here?"

"Well we're here aren't we Beck? Besides how many bedrooms are left? Did Tori come yet?"

"Well Andre, me and Jade have a bedroom in the top floor, Trina and Robbie have a room on the first floor. And now Tori hasn't arrived yet."

"Yeah and Trina said she doesn't want her sister to be on the same floor as Beck and Jade" Robbie added as soon as Beck finished responding.

"So then…that means me and Cat are gonna have to take a top floor bedroom with you two then? Great, c'mon lil red."

Andre went upstairs and was greeted by Jade, Cat was still struggling with her bags downstairs, "Coming Andre" she answered. Beck lent her a hand and so did Robbie.

6:30- Night

The Final person to join the gang had arrived a bit later than everyone else, Tori looked for a parking spot and found one near the house. She pulled her bags and belongings out from her car and took her time putting them all near the front door. With all her things there, Tori marched inside and passed Beck and Jade who were eating spaghetti in the kitchen, Cat and Andre were under the house checking out a game room. Tori went immediately to the only other vacant room on the first floor.

Beck felt odd, he clearly saw her and she saw him, he told Jade to wait for a bit as he welcomed her back.

Tori's Bedroom

Tori began to unpack her clothes from her bags and placed them inside her cabinets and closets. Beck walked in slowly and closed the door, Tori who had her delicates in hand, placed them back down in her suitcase and turned around.

"Can I help you Beck?" she asked sounding rather emotionless.

"I just wanted to say hello and welcome back to the shore house, that's all."

"Thank you…do you mind? I was kind of unpacking some things of mine."

"Ithere something bothering you Tori? If there is I'm here for you"

Beck inched a bit closer to Tori, she was very aware at he was trying to do. His calm demeanor, his helpful manner and friendly aura was like oil and sand. He could get to any girl, no matter how bitchy or how sweet, and he almost got to Tori once with that kiss. To counter his advances, she would have to add more sand to counter his slick nature.

"No Beck I'm just fine, I've been dealing with having to let someone amazing go…but I think I'll manage. Besides I'm here by myself, here to enjoy the beach, the rides, the clubs and maybe hook up with a few fellas."

Tori opened up her door and pointed outside, Beck looked at her before walking out saying nothing, he went over to go join Jade who was no longer in the kitchen. He went upstairs to see if she was there instead.

Pool Area, Outside 7:00- Night

Tori went outside wearing a yellow tank top and some jean shorts, there was no one else around so she took a seat on a Chaise near the pool. Even though it was already dark, Tori didn't come out for the moonlight, she came to be alone. And besides, the pool area was lit with lights. She though she would find some peace and quiet outside and that No one would be in the Jacuzzi, none of that was true.

Jade came outside in a black two piece bikini holding a black and white towel in her hand, Beck too came out wearing only a pair of swimming trunks.

"Oh great she's here Beck…What's the matter Tori, I thought you would be up in the Jacuzzi with your sister and her jersey looking boyfriend?"

"You mean Robbie, no I came out hoping no one would be out here. But I figured with the installment of this outside pool, it wouldn't take long for you and Beck to try it out."

"Oh…so you wanna see me and Beck Fuck in this pool?" Jade answered back.

"Jade enough, c'mon forget about it. Let's just enjoy The moonlight and see where things go from there." Said Beck.

"I know exactly where things are gonna go after this" Jade told him, she smirked and pushed him into the pool.

Beck fell and rose up from the water with a smile on his face, "That was a cheap shot babe."

Jade threw her towel on a Chaise further away from Tori and jumped inside the water, "The water must really be cold Jade, I can see your nipples already, heheheheh"

Jade put on a sultry smirk for him as she undid her top and left it on the side of the pool, Beck smirked too and wrapped his arms around her. Jade wrapped her legs around him underwater, Tori turned her Chaise around to spare herself the embarrassment. She closed her eyes and hoped she could get some rest after a long day of travel.
