Lily POV
Saturday and I'm getting ready for the beach, pink bikini, check, over sized shirt, check, flip flops, check, sunscreen, check, sunglasses, check, towel, check, sun cap, check, then the honk of a horn was outside, I grabbed my duffle bag and ran out of the door, locking it behind me.
Cassie and Tina are in the car wearing skirts and T-shirts, me, I'm the only one wearing shorts.
"Heyya," the drive we spent listening to Lady Gaga music for twenty minutes and then we were there.
The boys are already set up and grilling meat, I skipped out of Tina's car and over to Simon who was lying down, I sat next to him and patted his forehead, he opened up a chocolaty eye and winked at me before sitting up and pulling me onto his lap.
The sun was sending heat waves down on us and because we're on a secluded beach only a couple of other people are here.
Tina and Cassie are now already in their bikini's; Cassie is wearing a black gemmed one; Tina a deep red, when they do this they always make me feel so immature because mine is a pink one, also they have huge boobs and mine are just onto a C cup, but then I'm happy the way I am. Kneeling I pulled my top over my head and chucked it into my bag after pulling out my towel and lying it next to Tina's, I rolled back onto it and closed my eyes while contributing to little bits of the conversation occasionally.
After about an hour of tanning, or not tanning in my case, water was splashed all over me, I shot up in a start and saw that Tina and Cassie were wet also, they were glaring accusingly at the boys, in seconds I was up and chasing Zane, Tina was on the trail of Austin and Simon while Cassie caught up with Jay, he managed to stop her splashing water at him by kissing her hard, they were in the water so he hoisted her up so her legs were around his wait, they fell to the floor, heads just submerged from the water. We all walked up to them and watched before me being me said something very rude; "this is way better than the way we were taught sex education last year, more detailed."
Zane jumped in as well, "it's like show and tell, just there is no telling just showing."
"Live porn," Tina joked.
"I want a go," Austin fake sighed, of course Jay then reached up, grabbed his ankle and pulled so he fell over while never breaking the kiss.
I laughed while walking away from the group and around the corner behind a rock where a man was crouching watching us.
"Hey what the hell are you doing?"
"Shut up bitch," he muttered before punching in my direction, I moved my upper body out of the way clutched onto the rock edge and kicked round house into his face sending him flying into the other rock.
His face was covered so I couldn't see him, "you're her."
"Who?"
"Never mind, catch ya later." The he jumped up onto the rock and climbed away, I would go after him but my friends are calling to me, so I'll deal with it later…
Monday
Monday came too soon, and now in school we have to start preparing for the town's founder festival, after all, it's not all that old. Right now, our group is in a meeting on what to do…
"Well we have to do the Jackson High Royalty float, so we need the entrants for that to get their dresses and have dates, or escorts." I'm one of the entrants, my friends managed to talk me into it, basically we have to do good for the community, Tina, Cassie and I went around and cleaned up the streets, went to the old folk's home, read to children in the local hospital and played with children at the orphanage.
We also helped people who needed it on a daily basis; all three of us are going head on along with some other people.
Mandy, the float captain carried on, "last year, and the years before us people have dressed up in today's clothing, so we need different, has anyone got any ideas?"
My hand rose, "why don't we dress up in periodic clothing, you know the time when the town was built, it will be theatrical and probably gather a crowd."
"Good, if you agree with Lily raise your hand." Most people raised their hands, so I'm going to have to get a heavy gown from the early 1800's, this should be a challenge, how fun. "Okay, we'll do that. What about the theatrical burning of witches?" It carried on like this all morning, then we had to go back to our classes, which right now are a blessing compared to that torture.
The meeting had all the volunteers and participants in it, and what do you know all of the Pretty People were there.
But before classes we have lunch, sighing me and my friends made our way over to our cars to sit in the sun, I perched myself on the bonnet of my mini with my water.
Adrian and his friends are at their cars as well, he's watching me, but out of the corner of my eye I can see someone's watching him, in the shadow of trees, hidden in the foliage at the edge of the school.
Still watching them I can see that their hand is clenched around something solid, ready for an attack so they have some form of weapon with them, offence instincts kick in and I observe more; they're slightly slanting on their right leg, so ligament damage in their calf within the last six months; weapon bared in left hand, right hand braced on the ground, right handed but ready for a fight if necessary with the left hand, probably had fighting training when they were younger then.
"Yo Lily, what's got you all wrapped up?"
"Huh? Oh, um, nothing, what were you talking about?"
"Whether or not chocolate would be a good topping for pizza, what do you think?"
"I don't really care, I'll be right back," my legs walked at a fast, but non rushed pace over to Adrian where he was laughing at Thea, he noticed me coming and straightened up, the others saw his change and did the same. I briefly felt the eyes of my friends on me as I approached the others. When I was close enough I leant up and whispered in his ear, "some one's watching you from behind the trees, they have some for of offensive weapon." He looked shocked, "don't turn around for another couple of seconds they're backing away because they have suspicions, give it twenty seconds then look."
"How'd you know this?" My brow arched.
"Have you forgotten what I am?" I asked copying his expression.
"Oh yeah, well what am I meant to do about it?"
"Nothing, I'll sort it later, just watch you're back okay?"
"Okay, bye."
"Chow." Then I was off back to my car and to my friends.
I then saw the figure look at me then disappear, things are getting weird around here, but I'm going to figure it out.
