Taylor drove her car to towards town with her girlfriends. "So how's the new school?" Kayla asked.
"Um, pretty good except for the Bimbo Barbie's." Taylor asked.
"Those girls we saw you with?" Sarah asked.
"Yeah. They've had it out for me since the first day when they caught the quarterback flirting with me." Taylor replied as she pulled in front of a small clothing store.
"Oh, better not tell Reid." Kate laughed. "He's liable to blow a casket."
"So true." Taylor laughed as they climbed out of the car. "So," Taylor said as she linked arms with Kayla "What's going on between you and my brother?"
"I'm not exactly sure." Kayla blushed.
"Oh come on! They have been inseparable the past few weeks. Their all googlie eyed over each other." Kate answered as they walked into the store.
"Leave them alone Kate." Sarah replied. "Their cute together."
"Well it's about time my brother found a girl. I'm glade I at least like you." Taylor replied as Kayla continued to blush.
"True that." Kate said as she went through a rack of bikinis.
"So, tell me what I've missed." Taylor demanded as she also looked threw the racks.
The girls shopped as they filled Taylor in on the events of Ipswich. Taylor was just glad not to be alone anymore. Finally after nearly an hour they each came out of the store with a new bikini. Sarah bought a white on that tied around the neck. Kate bought a blue one that came with matching board shorts. Kayla bought a red one that had black flower classically covering it. Taylor bought a black one that was sure to make Reid's jaw drop. Taylor drove them back to the cabin where the boys where just pulling the boat out of the storage shed in the back. With out saying a word the girls ran up the stairs to change. When Taylor walked into her room she saw Reid's suitcase thrown on the bed with cloths spilling out. She smiled to himself figuring he must have just dug his swim trunks out and not bothered to fix his mess. Taylor quickly pushed the clothing back inside his suitcase and flipped the top closed. She put on her bathing suit and one of Reid's t-shirts then walked to the bathroom where the girls where already gathering. Kate was French braiding Kayla's hair while Sarah was brushing her back into a neat pony tail. Taylor just bent her head back and gathered her hair on top of her head and put it in a messy bun. Once they where done they headed down stairs to meet the boys. They all had on white tank tops with their swim trunks. Pogue's where a Burt orange. Caleb's where navy blue while Tyler's where a dark green. Reid's where his favorite color black with a white strip up each leg.
"You girls ready?" Pogue yelled.
"Yeah." The girls cheered. As usual they all climbed into Tyler's SUV and headed to the lake. It only took them about fifteen minutes to make it to the dock. With Pogue guiding the way Tyler backed the boat into the water. After everyone was in the boat Pogue skillfully drove towards the middle of the giant lake. Suddenly Pogue stopped the boat and turned off the engine.
"What's up?" Caleb asked.
"Last one in buys dinner." Pogue yelled as he threw his shirt off and dove into the water. Instantly Caleb threw his shirt off and dove in with Sarah and Kate. Reid pulled his shirt off as Taylor did the same. He grabbed her by the waist and jumped over into the water. Last was Tyler and Kayla. They both threw their shirts off but Kayla stopped and yelled "Ouch!"
"What?" Tyler spun around looking at Kayla concerned.
"My ankle, I twisted it." Kayla said as she hopped forwards.
"Are you ok?"
"Yeah." Kayla suddenly jumped over board laughing. "Guess your buying dinner." She called as she surfaced.
"That was just mean." Tyler smiled as he dove in next to her.
"Reid stop!" Taylor demanded as Reid splashed.
"Make me!" Reid taunted this time diving under water and coming up behind her.
"Reid." Taylor laughed as she lunged for him pushing his head under water with his mouth fully open. When Reid finally came up he spit water out of his mouth and sent her a smirk. "What?" Taylor asked.
"Nothing." Reid shrugged. "You're just in so much trouble."
"Oh really and what's my punishment?" Taylor smirked.
"Oh just wait and see." Reid smirked as he dived under the water again. Taylor flinched as she felt him run his hands up her hips and came up behind her once again. He bent his head and kissed the crock of her neck. Taylor turned around in his arms and captured his lips in hers.
Unfortunately the moment was short lived. Pogue and Caleb dove under the water and each grabbed one of Reid's legs and pulled him under nearly taking Taylor with him. That's pretty much how the rest of the evening went. They just goofed off and had fun. It was a nice distraction from their normal power-centered lives.
