Jess's pov

Amanda and I sat by the pool. We lounged on the chairs. The clock read 9:35 am. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Maybeck's friend Kyle approaching us. I mentally groaned. There was something seriously wrong with that guy.

He walked over to us. "Hey ladies." He was trying to be smooth.

"Hi." I said flatly, rolling my eyes.

He completely neglected me, turning towards my un- biological sister. "So Amanda." He started "I was wondering if you wanted to go somewhere, just me and you" he said with a smirk that resembled Flynn riders smoulder.

I butt in. "Oh get a life you creep. Don't you try to get in the way of my otp. The Finn and Amanda ship has already sailed you a** hole. Now get out of here before I severely mess up your face." I ended with balling my hand into a fist, then flashing him a phoney smile.

His eyes widened as he backed away. On his way, he mumbled "feisty. I like feisty." He turned around and flashed me a smile.

I silently noticed that his blue eyes twinkled. His blonde hair was sleeked back with some hair gel. He wasn't too bad looking. Wait. Jess. What are you thinking! I mentally yelled at myself. You have to deal with wilby! Speaking of which, he was supposed to ask her out this morning. I wonder if he did? I quickly looked away from Kyle and continued chatting with Amanda. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe Kyle wasn't so bad..

Kyle's pov (A/N: surprise!)

I didn't feel bad about being rejected. Honestly, I didn't like Amanda and I respected the fact that Finn was her boyfriend. No. I went up to them for another reason. Jess intrigues me. I want to know more about her. I wondered how she would react to me asking out her sister. The way she did react shows me just how much she cares about her sister. She's also a little scary. I like that.

I spun back around. "Jess!" I shouted. She looked in my direction. I waved her over to me. She stalked over, a confused look on her face.

"Can I help you?" She asked, though it sounded more like a statement than a question.

I smiled my "Kyle smile" the grumpy look on her face disappeared.

"You're really protective of your sister, huh?"

"No. I'm just good at protecting her from egotistical idiots like you." She shared sassily. I rolled my eyes.

"Jess. I don't like Amanda like that."

"Then why did you ask her out?" She asked confused.

"To see how you react." I replied.

Jess grew visibly angry. "Let's see how YOU react when I connect my fist with your face!" She fumed.

I grabbed her fist. "Please don't. Jess. I like you. A lot. I find you intriguing. I want to know more about you. I only asked Amanda to see how you'd act. I think it's really sweet that you want to protect her. Would you maybe like to go for dinner tonight?" I asked apprehensively, hoping she wouldn't murder me. I closed my eyes, waiting for her fist to make impact.

But what I didn't expect occurred. "Sure." She replied. I opened my eyes in shock and smiled.

"Okay! Meet me right here at 7:00.!" I wished her goodbye and skipped off. I couldn't be happier right now.

Willa's pov

I was in my room getting ready for the day that lie ahead. Jess and Amanda went to the pool early this morning, leaving the rest of us to have breakfast on our own. We had pancakes made by Charlene and I. They were great if I do say so myself.

Now I was in my room, dressed in a pair of floral shorts a plain orange T-shirt. I parked the ensemble with a pair of purple American eagle flip flops that had a fluorescent orange strap. Underneath my clothes, I had a plain orange bikini with matching bottoms.

I wasn't in the mood to put on makeup, so I reached for my glasses case.

I opened it and unfolded the thick black frames.

I went to slide them over the bridge of my nose, but then I remembered Philby's words.

'I think you look absolutely beautiful with our without makeup and with or without your glasses.'

I smiled and closed the glasses, putting them back in their case. Today, I was going au natural.

Not in the mood to braid my hair, I left it down, running a brush through my hair, wet from my recent shower. It sat on my back, drying. It formed it's natural waves.

My phone received a text. I grabbed it and opened it.

From: Mom

Hi sweetheart, call me.

I obeyed the text and typed my home number into the keypad.

It rang a couple of times before my mother's voice was heard on the other end. "Hello?"

"Hi mom."

"Oh hello Willa! How's your vacation been so far?"

"Oh mom. These past few days have been amazing! I'm so happy Wayne let us do this."

"So any news about Dell?" She asked. I could practically feel her smirking. Yes. She knew about my crush. She bet me something would happen while we were vacationing.

"Mom.." I groaned. "Fine. He asked me to be his girlfriend."

"REALLY!" She yelled enthusiastically. I shushed her. I didn't need my brothers teasing me.

Just then, Finn popped his head through the door. "We're going to play volley ball. Jess and Amanda just got back. Wanna come?" He asked. I nodded and held up my index finger, asking for a minute. Finn slipped out.

"Mom, we're going to play volleyball. I'll call you tonight."

"Okay sweetheart. I love you."

"I love you too, mom. Bye." The was a click letting me know she hung up.

I went out into the living room where everyone was seated.

Amanda's pov

We were talking about Jess's upcoming date. It was now 10:30.

When Willa came out of her room, we let her know "all were waiting for is maybeck." She nodded.

Eventually, maybeck the-ever-lazy emerged from his room.

"Let's go!" I exclaimed.

We went to the lobby and asked to borrow a volleyball. They graciously handed it over, but told us they needed back in 2 hours.

We ran over to the court. The girls left their shorts on and wore their bathing suit tops. Mine was navy blue and covered in polka dots. Willa's was plain and orange, matching nicely with her flowered shorts. Jess's was black with white stripes and Charlene's was, expectedly, hot pink and had dots and stripes in a tribal print pattern.

"I'm making the teams!" Called Jess.

"But jessssssss" the girls complained with me, dragging out her name.

"Hush, children." She retaliated, shooing us with her hands.

We went and sat beside the guy we were shipped with by Jess.

She was taken aback. "I didn't even say anything yet!" She claimed.

We gave her a look. "Okay. Maybe I would have done that anyway. But you made my job easier!" She said.

We rolled our eyes. "Okay. Team wilby and team famanda are up first! I'm judging!"

We took our places. The match began.

"Team wilby wins!" Called Jess. "Not team charbeck will play team wilby!

I sat down on the grassy area in between Jess and Finn and watched the match go down.

"Willa, philby! I didn't know you were so good at volleyball!"

"Oh I stink. Willa is the star player of our school!" Philby shared. Everyone laughed.

"Well. You guys take first place. Now charbeck and famanda must battle to see who is the loser!" Jess shared.

"What a nice way of putting it." I rolled my eyes.

I got off of my seat and joined Charlene, maybeck and Finn on by the net.

I served first. I anticipated that it would soar over the net, but instead, it hit the net and went under. I frowned.

"Here." Finn said, grabbing the ball. "I'll show you."

I smiled at him gratefully. Eventually, I was able to throw it over the net. It went far to the left. Charlene dove and smacked it back. Unfortunately, I missed. I huffed and rolled the ball over the net. Maybeck served and Finn volleyed it back. Charlene bumped it and it flew towards me. I stuck out my hands and hoped for the best. To my luck, it soared over the net and hit the ground on their side. We got a point!

"The winner is... Is... Is...

-" Jess held us in suspense.

"JUST SAY IT ALREADY!" Snapped maybeck.

"Team charbeck! Putting team famanda in last"

"Boo." Pouted Finn.

"Wilby, you win!" Jess yelled. Willa and philby high-fived.

"What time is it?" I asked.

Willa checked her phone. "5:39" she shared.

"WHAT!" Jess exclaimed "my date is at 7:00! We have to go! I need to get ready!"

We all jumped up in a panic and ran to the hotel.

"We'll return the volley ball. You girls go get ready!" Philby urged. We listened and ran to the elevators.

Willa had one of her freak outs in the elevator due to her claustrophobia. Charlene held her hand to calm her down. She couldn't have been happier for the door to open. We let her get out first and she took deep breaths until she calmed down. She claimed that she was taking the stairs from now on.

Charlene's pov

We currently huddled in Jess and Amanda's room, trying to find something for Jess to wear on her date with Kyle.

"What about this?" Asked Amanda, we all turned our heads to where she was standing, holding a hot pink dress.

Jess laughed out loud. "Have You ever seen me wear pink?"

Amanda sighed and went back to the closet, this time pulling out a black skirt and mint lacy top. Jess scrunched up her nose.

Amanda growled and dropped the articles to the floor, walking to her closet this time. After a little looking, she showed us a yellow dress. It had a single ruffle down the chest and was at a length that it would reach Jess's mid thigh.

"That's the one." I said immediately. Willa agreed with me. Jess tried it on.

Jess's eyes lit up as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. The colour nicely complimented the honey shade of her dyed hair. "It's perfect." She smiled.

Amanda threw her phone, extra lipstick and disney band in her brown leather purse while Willa curled Jess's hair. Willa, being a wiz with a curling wand, completed her full head of hair in 15 minutes, and then spent another 3 minutes braiding her bangs into a waterfall braid. As soon as Willa was done, I took over and did Jess's makeup, applying foundation, a smokey eye, something out of all of us girls only I have mastered, some eyeliner, mascara and a light pink coloured lipstick.

"Wow! I look amazing! It's a miracle!" Jess exclaimed.

Amanda rolled her eyes "you always look good Jess."

I looked at the wall clock "it's 6:50" I told them.

"I better be going then." Said Jess "bye guys!"

"Bye! Good luck!" We wished her. She left, shutting the door quietly behind her.

Jess's pov

I stood impatiently tapping my foot at the spot where Kyle said to meet. It was 7:04 and he had yet to show.

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Kyle, jogging towards me.

He stopped in front of me, out of breath. "Hey. Sorry I'm late. I couldn't remember how to tie a tie." He stated honestly. I laughed.

"It's fine. Let's just go."

He lead me to the restaurant,

The ulú café. We took our seats and a waitress came over to take our drink orders. I requested a pink lemonade and Kyle, a coke.

When the waitress, left, we had a conversation.

"So jess, tell me about your self." Kyle said.

"Okay." I smiled "my name is Jessica Ann Lockhart, I'm 15 years old from Orlando Florida. I'm not your average teenage girl."

"How so?" He asked.

"Hush. Let me finish. I grew up in Baltimore at an orphanage for "special" kids. I am a fairlie."

"Do you mean a fairy?"

"No. A fairlie. As in 'fairly-human" (A/N anyone recognize that?) Kyle looked confused so I chose to continue.

"My sister and I have special 'powers'. Amanda possesses telekinesis, the ability levitate small objects and move immovable objects with her mind, and I have clairvoyance, I can dream the future. Amanda and I escaped the Baltimore orphanage because all they did was experiment if us and we couldn't take it any more. We ran away to Florida and lived in an abandoned church. Kyle looked at me stunned.

"That's why I am such a help to the kingdom keepers. But on their first adventure, I was captured by Maleficent and she turned me into some sort of evil apprentice, possessing dark magic of my own. She wanted to make sure that my dreaming the future wouldn't get in the way of her maniacal plans. So my hair turned jet black and I called myself Jezebel, or jez for short. I did bad things to the keepers. Tormented them. Even my own sister. She hated the spell, but didn't know how to save me. But the keepers found a way. I was freed and Maleficent was out in jail. When the spell was broken, my hair turned Jack Frost white and that's why I always dye it." Kyle nodded, and told me to continue.

"In the keepers second adventure, I got captured again. I feel like I'm always the victim. Anyways, I was stuck in animal kingdom in what we call the syndrome, where your body was in a comatose state but your dhi was stuck in disney. I couldn't leave though. The keepers saved me. We went on tons of other adventures where I actually helped instead of being the one causing it. We had some great times. We are being rewarded for our work for being here. Amanda and I were caught living in the church, so we were taken to mrs. Nash's home for girls. We have an annoying roommate named Jeannine. She's not all bad though.

"If you wanted to know my personality, I'm not sarcastic AT ALL (I said that very sarcastically), I love unicorns,

I like to joke, I'm a social butterfly and I'm apprehensive about a lot of things."

Kyle smiled. "Well my life story barely measures up to yours.. But my name is Kyle Winters. I live in Orlando too."

"Really? Where?"

"Just down the road from crazy glaze. Anyway. My dad and I are really close. My mom walked out on us when i was really little. He always worked at Disney for as long as I can but then he recently got a new job as a doctor so we are here in Hawaii to celebrate. That's about it. No funky running away or secret powers. " I giggled.

Just then our food was placed in front of us. We thanked the waitress and immediately dig in.

"I had a lot of fun tonight. Thanks Kyle." I appreciated. Kyle's jacket was draped over my shoulders as we walked along the boardwalk.

"No problem" he smiled.

I glanced at his watch. It read 10:49. "Do you think it's time to head back?" I asked him. He nodded. We began to walk back to my hotel room.

He stopped me at the door.

"I had a great time tonight." He told me. I smiled.

"Me too." I rose up on my toes and swiftly placed a kiss in his cheek.

"Good night Kyle" I wished

"Night Jess." He smiled. He turned around and left.

Philby's pov (while Jess's date happened)

Finn took Amanda out for dinner and maybeck and Charlene fell asleep in front of the tv. So I decided is take Willa out on our first official date.

"Hey Willa." I said while approaching her.

"Hi." She smiled with a small wave.

"Would you like to go for dinner tonight?" I asked.

Willa smiled "of course. Let me go change." I nodded and let her go.

A few minutes later, she came back in a mint green sundress.

"You look beautiful Willa." I complimented. She blushed and thanked me for my comment. I clasped her hand in mine and she intertwined our fingers. I lead her down to 'Ama, 'Ama.

We are a great meal surrounded by tiki torched and beautiful Hawaiian flowers. It was truly beautiful. When our meal was completed, we took a walk down the shoreline like we did that first night. Willa cuddled into my side, our fingers laced together. We walked for quite sometime. A nice thing about our relationship is that words didn't always need to be exchanged. We could be completely silent, but still appreciate each others company.

"Ready to go back?" I asked. She nodded. Together we walked the short way to our hotel.

I walked her all the way to the door of the room Willa shared with Charlene. I stopped her at the door and spun her so she was facing me.

"Goodnight Willa. I love you." I told her.

"I love you too philby." She whispered.

I placed two fingers under her chin and tilted it up to me, giving her a long, sweet kiss. When we separated, I smiled. We went our separate ways and I walked to my room, hearing her door close behind me.

I got myself ready for to go to bed and climbed under the sheets. I grabbed my phone and texted Willa a goodnight message, even though I had already said goodnight.

When she responded, I put my phone in do not disturb mode and placed it back on the bedside table.

What an amazing day. What an amazing trip. What and amazing opportunity. I sure was glad to be a kingdom keeper.

A/N Hey guys! I was running out of ideas, so this is a sort of filler chapter. Yay for wilby! They're good at volleyball. As much as I hate to admit it, I base Willa's character off of myself. Aka. Claustrophobia, volleyball skill, style, hair. So sorry if you dot. Like Willa's personality, I just can't help from writing her as me!

Anywho, a big thanks to lizard5699 who gave me the idea for the new ship, jyle (jessxkyle) or should it be kess or kessica or... Okay. Somebody come up with a better ship name!
