Chapter 9

"So...anything you do want to do?" Jen asked, sighing, out of boredom.

"Why not just...I DON'T KNOW!" I yelled, completely bored.

We both sighed in unison. "I GOT IT!" Jen yelled.

"What?" I said, wanting to do anything but this!

"Why not just hang out...?" Jen shrugged.

"Why not...uh..." I said, completely bored, and not knowing what to do.

"I DON'T KNOW!" Jen yelled at the top of her lungs.

"Let's just hang out in the pool..." I shrugged.

"Okay...let's go change!" Jen said, getting up, and we went to our rooms.

I opened the door and Troy was shirtless. "OMG!" I yelled. Shutting my eyes tight.

"See something you like?" Troy laughed.

"PUT A SHIRT ON!" I yelled, looking through my part of the drawers, looking for my bathing suit.

"Sorry...sheesh...it's just me..." Troy said.

"Whatever..." I said, going into the bathroom changing.

I went in and changed, and came out. "Wow..." Troy's mouth was completely open.

"See you something you like?" I completely mocked him.

"Ye-" Troy was interrupted.

"Don't finish that..." Grant shook his head.

"Agreed." I rolled my eyes, and went into the backyard.

"WHOOHOO!" I said, jumping into the pool .

"YEAH!" Jen jumped in after me. We laughed histarically.

"Nice.." I laughed.

"Hey girlies!" Andrew laughed, bringing Addy in her bathing suit.

"Hey Drew! Hey Ads!" I said smiling at Addy.

"Gabi! Jwen!" Addy giggled.

"Cmere niecy!" Jen laughed.

Andrew sat on the stairs, in the water putting her floaties on. "C'mon Ads...swims over here!" Jen said swimming over closer to the stairs. Addy started paddling towards Jenny. It was so cute! "GOOD JOB ADDY!" I giggled.

"Hey guys!" Grant said, putting his feet in the water. "Oh hey Grant! You wanna help me out!" I said smiling mischeviously.

"Oh no! I know what your doing Ms. Montez!" Grant laughed.

"What is that?" I smiled at him.

He reached out his hand, I pulled him in, luckilly he was in his bathing suit. "See! I KNEW IT!" Grant said.

"I didn't know you knew anything!" Andrew laughed.

"HA HA HA Andy!" Grant said, knowing Andrew hated being called Andy.

"Don't you dare go that lil' bro!" Andrew laughed.

"Hey guys!" Troy said, getting in carefully.

"Oh hey Troy!" Andrew laughed.

"What's so funny?" Troy asked.

"TWOY!" Addy giggled. Wanting to go to Troy, and Jen let go of him, and swam to Troy. I have to admit, it was cute.

"Aw, someone loves you Troy!" Jen laughed.

I held in my laughter. "Oh c'mon Gabs, you know that's funny!" Jen laughed.

"Okay..." I said, finally laughing.

"Whatever..." Troy rolled his eyes and completely ignored our laughing.

"C'mere Ads! Come to uncle Grant!" Grant said.

"GWANT!" Addy said, swimming over to Grant.

"Hello my princess!" Grant said laughing. Addy brought the best out in everyone...it was so cute.

"Hi Unle Gwant!" Addy giggled.

"Ready to go under?" Grant asked.

Addy took a deep breath, and held her nose. We all knew that meant, "Ready!" And Grant went under very slowly. And not very deep. And didn't go fast. Grant was careful,as usual. And in 5 seconds...they came back out, Addy breathing heavily. "FUN!" she screamed.

"Wow! You held your breath for so long!" Troy said.

"YAY!" Addy said, excited.

"C'mere Ads! Aunty Gabi wants to say hi!" I said. Though I'm not related, she calls me Auntie Gabs. I'm practically like family.

"GABI! BWING ME TO GABI!" Addy yelled excited. Grant gave me to her.

"How are you?" I smiled at her.

"MWAH!" and she kissed me on the cheek.

"Thanks you!" and I gave a small peck on the cheek too.

Addy giggled. "What do you want to do now?" I asked her sweetly.

"UNDER!" she said.

"Okay...you ready?" and she held her breath, and plugged her nose, and I went under. About in 7 seconds we were back up.

"AH!" Addy yelled, as she got to breath.

I giggled. "She's so cute!" I said, handing her back to Andrew. Who put her on his shoulders.

"I'm A GIANT!" Addy giggled. Addy was the cutest girl ever!

"WEEE!" Addy giggled again.

I lied on the water, relaxing. Which is what I really needed. "Ahhh..." I said sighing in relief.

"What?" Jen asked, doing the same.

"It's summer...I can relax...go on my date..." I said smiling.

"Oh no! Your not going on that date!" Grant shook his head.

"I'm 17...and so much for my relaxing time!" I said going under water, I stayed under for about a minute. You know, a singer's lungs.

I came up. "Fine! You can go on the date!" Grant gave in, shaking his head, doubting his dicision.

"Yay! You trust me!" I said.

"YAY!" Addy said, immitating me, not even knowing what she was screaming about.

"Well...I'm gonna get ready for dinner." Jen and I said.

"Oke dokey!" Addy said.

Jen and I dried off, and changed. Then we ate dinner...

In the guest bedroom...

"Troy...you can have the bed!" I said, laying down on the couch.

"No...you get the bed, I get couch!" Troy said, picking me up, bridal style, and putting me on the bed.

"FINE!" I said rolling my eyes.

"Night Bella!" Troy said turning off the lights.

"Night Troy Boy!" I yawned and fell asleep.

That's it! I can write anymore for tonight!
