We're Just Two Footprints in the Sand

Chapter 2: "Peanut Butter!"

By musiclover94 and Baby-M-xo

Recap…

"Sand fight?" Zac grinned.

"Of course!" Vanessa laughed and threw a big glob at his shoulder.

"Zac, how hard is it to light a fire!?" Ashley playfully scorned him later that day.

"Corbin, do you have the firewood?" Vanessa asked, getting the marshmallows out if the Ford Explorer trunk.

"Yeah," the outrageously curly haired teen said, holding up a sizable pile.

"And you brought the chocolate, intact, hopefully? And no empty cans of Coke?" Ashley said seriously, giving Vanessa a trying-to-be-serious look, but instead did a sort of weird biting-lip thing. It was well known that Monique could not let a bar of chocolate or Coca-Cola go uneaten or undrunk for long.

"Contrary to popular belief, I can leave a chocolate bar untouched." Monique said, holding up the packs for evidence.

"And Lucas, you have the graham crackers?" Ashley said, fighting to keep a straight face, but failing to do so and flashing her 100-watt smile.

"Right here." Lucas said, gesturing to a box of the crackers that seemed to lock your jaws together.

"And what would you be bringing, Miss Tisdale?" Vanessa said grinning in spite of herself.

"I am bring," she paused for dramatic effect, though none came. How dramatic could you make a smore ingredient? "peanut butter!"

Silence.

"Why do we need peanut butter?" Lucas asked.

"We just can't have the same old ingredients. We have to mix it up!" she said.

"It'll be like a…whatdaya call it?" Zac said with a puzzled look o his face, which was splattered across so many teeny-boppers' walls.

"You don't even know how to spell Reces…no….Recess?" Vanessa said, squishing up her face so she looked like a mad hamster. Monique stifled a laugh.

"Recess is the joke spelling, Van." Corbin said, smiling.

"Oh, whatever. Zac, is the fire lit yet?" she called, her voice crystal-clear over the no-wind night.

"Yeah!" he said, walking over and wiping his sooty hands on his jeans. "I almost lit my hair on fire."

"Mmm, those were good!" Monique said, biting into her third smore. Her dark skin looked darker than usual, even in the darkness of the night.

"Momo, did you get a tan?" Ashley asked.

"You must have a hawk's vision to spot that," Corbin said.

"I do have a tan, Ash. And why not, with this glorious summer we've been having? And you don't look too pale either!" she said.

"Since I've been busy with my new movie coming out, not much sun has come my way, so I've been going to a tanning salon." she said, biting into a smore. Zac, Lucas, Corbin and Vanessa exchanged worried looks.

"What?" Monique and Ashley said at the same time, catching their looks.

"Well, too much sun is bad for your skin, and we don't want you to get…sick." Lucas said lightly.

"Oh, come on, have some fun!" Ashley said, giving Lucas a playful nudge on the arm.

"All right…" Zac said, still giving them worried glances.
