A/N:
Well, requested by a friend.
Here you go.
Who knows how this is all going to work out.

(Reggie's POV)
"I can't believe that Ray is making us leave." I was tossing stuff in my duffel bag and suit case. Nikkie, Brandi and Catie were going through my drawers finding cute skirts and shorts for me to wear.
"I know, that totally sucks. We'll text you every day though. Babe we're gonna miss you. Seriously school is going to be a bitch without you." Nikkie said ever so sympathetically as she tossed a blue, black, and white pleated skirt in my bag. Brandi tossed in a raggedy pair of jeans in that we all loved.
"Why couldn't he just send Otto. No one likes him anyways." Fury was being hidden by my sadness. Honestly, I don't even remember Uncle Andrew.
"Agreed. He's stupid." Catie smiled. "You're going to be the hottest girl to ever hit Colorado! And you'll take them by storm."
"Thanks boo." What she said wasn't true but it was super sweet. I looked over at the clock. We had to be at the airport by three thirty. It was now hitting noon.
"Mmmm baby you'll look good in these." Brandi said snapping a thong off her fingers at me. It landed on my head and we all laughed. Nikkie grabbed my camera off my desk and snapped a picture of me making a hilarious face. Snapping pictures with each other, we were detoured from packing. I don't really know how I'm going to make in through Colorado without these girls. Finally, I caught sight of the clock and realized it was two and really I have to pack. Lodging my skateboard in my duffel back and stuffing all my thongs and socks into the bag and quickly pushing hoodies and PJ pants into my suitcase, ripping my second suitcase out from under my bed I opened it up. Tossing in my camera, cord, lap top, and charger I eyed it all like I'd never see it again. Lodging my phone charger in my bag too then any other clothing that didn't fit in the other bags. I grabbed my purse and filled it with my cosmetics and grabbed out my phone.
Pulling all the girls together I snapped a picture of the four of us together in our matching outfits. Damn, how I'm going to miss this all.
"What should I wear there guys?" I asked looking at my entire collection of clothes crammed in two suitcases, and a duffel bag.
"Oh, your sexy jeans with…" Nikkie said ripping the jeans out of my bag. "This thong." She indicated to a hot pink one with Babe written in a yellow font. "This bra." She pulled out a similar bra to the panties.
"What am I not wearing a shirt?" I asked changing my clothes quickly. I was now standing there topless as I tossed what I had worn that night into my second suitcase. I still needed everything that was in the basement in there.
"Well, ho hum." Brandi said smiling. "I think it looks good, but you should probably wear a shirt, maybe a hoodie too."
"Thanks sweetie. Help me here!" I cried. Looking at the light wash jeans, I knew I should wear a darker shirt.
"What about the rugby shirt you got from Trent? The dark blue one with the white stripes. The one with Rocket on the back, it'd look totally awesome with this belt and this bandana." Nikkie said holding up a silver studded belt and a dark pink bandana. That girl could have a sense of fashion if she wanted, so far it was a good choice. The bandana rested on the bed. I had a collection of fifty in my bag, I love bandana's they can fix any outfit. Quickly pulling my hair into a pony tail I tied the bandana in my hair. Quickly I redid my eyeliner and mascara.
"You look like a model!" Catie cried and hugged me tight. Wandering into the bathroom I brushed my teeth for the second time that morning and capped my toothbrush and threw it into my bag. Walking back into the bathroom I returned to my bedroom with my waver and my straightener. Tossing those in my bag my room looked desolate without my beautiful clothing strewn about.
"I need jewelry and shoes." I sighed, "You three pick it out while I grab the stuff from the basement I'll need." They nodded as I ran into the basement. Otto was already down there tossing stuff in a basket for me and keeping his in a basket of his own. I went through the washer, luckily nothing of mine was in there. Grabbing my dirty clothes off the floor I tossed them in my basket leaving my brother behind. Walking back up the stairs my basket in hand I entered my room dumping the contents of my basket into my suitcase.
"Here." Nikkie said handing me a pink beaded necklace, a white beaded necklace, black studs for my ears, then a pink stud for my upper ear. Quickly I put it all on then changed out my lip ring for a pink stud they handed me. I slipped on my class ring and a cheap plastic heart ring that I knew belonged to Nikkie. They handed me a pair of 'PINK' sandals from Victoria Secret that were pink with the dog in green. Slipping a pony tail onto my wrist I looked totally complete. A gentle smile crossed my face and I knew it wouldn't last long, I was going to miss all these people. I dug about my bag and grabbed out my camera. Longingly I took pictures with the boys, and then pictures of all of us together.
Walking back to my room I tossed my camera into my bag then I poured my unused jewelry into a bag and tossed it into my second suitcase. Then I placed my Sensual Amber lotion and spray in a pocket on the suitcase.
I stared at my door waiting for someone to tell me this was all a joke, or for Ashton Kutcher to tell me that I got Punk'd. I don't care how but I wanted to be told this was all a joke. Staring at my desolate room, I was saddened by the fact that everything I loved was still going to remain here. Cramming my phone in my front pocket this was going to be a terrible school year. I filled my wallet with all the money that I had left in my room, about six hundred bucks. Tossing my wallet into my bag I zipped up my one suitcase and my duffel bag. The other one was still open, I figured I'd forgotten something and would have to cram it in there.
Lars entered my room with a partial smile on his face he hugged me lightly and slipped something in my back pocket. His voice was calm and cool as it rushed over me "Reg I'm going to miss you."
"I'll miss you too." I inhaled the smell of him and looked up at him. He kissed my forehead lightly. I pulled out what he pushed into my back pocket. "Lars this is yours!" I cried staring at his iPod.
"Nope, now it's yours. I made you a play list, and here's a cord to download music." I shoved the cord into my bag and stared at the name engraved on the back of the iPod. Lars Andrew Rodriguez. He had a white boy middle name, it was cute.
"Thanks Lars." I said kissing his cheek lightly. He smiled as if to say no problem and left my room again. "Wait, can you help me carry my bags?" I asked handing him my suit case and duffel bag. I shoved his iPod back into my pocket, and then tossed my favorite purple stuffed puppy into the bag quickly I scanned my room again then tossed my diary in my bag too. I was done. I lugged the bag and my purse downstairs. I saw Otto's three suitcases sitting in the car already next to my duffel bag and one suitcase. Then a book bag I knew was filled with our shoes. Tossing my final suitcase in the back I put my purse in the back seat of the car. Twister eyed me carefully.
"Here." He said handing me his necklace. His famous shark tooth necklace, everyone stared. "I have another one at home, and I want it back when you come back." A smile crossed his face as he attached it around my neck. I hugged him tightly and I hugged everyone else tightly. Lord how I'd miss these guys.
"Call me and text me the whole time I'm gone! I'm going to miss you guys so much." I said almost tearful. I opened my first suitcase again and pulled out my black pull over AC/DC hoodie and tossed it in the back seat of the car and zipped up my bag again. We did a giant group hug, and my time in Ocean Shores was over until my father said different. Sitting in the car I waved to them all good bye as Ray drove off. They all texted me saying the loved me the second the car was out of distance. I cried the whole way to the air port.
(Otto's POV)
"Man Ray's being a total asshole about this. I can't believe Reg got us sent to Uncle Andrew's. I don't even fucking remember him." I murmured slamming clothes into the suitcases on my bed.
"Your Uncle Andrew is really cool." Lars said as he threw socks into my bag.
"How do you remember him?" I questioned as I threw all my shirts into the first suitcase on my bed. My closet was completely cleared of all my shirts already.
"Because he treated me just as well as your mom and I remember going up to his ranch once with you guys." Lars landed a pair of socks on Nick's head who bumped them into the bag.
"Ranch? What the hell am I getting put into!?" I cried, a ranch of all things. What was going to be there, like cows and chickens or something? This wasn't going to be any good.
"You haven't been there since, huh?" Lars asked eyeing me precariously.
"Apparently not, I'd remember a bunch of smelly cows." I told him looking to Corey, Nick and Twist for any information on this.
"Naw dude it's for snowboarding. He owns like a lodge or something, it's the Hidden Ranch or something." Lars said with utter enthusiasm as he tossed the rest of my socks in the bag.
"Seriously?!" I screamed, I didn't remember any uncle of mine owning a snowboarding ranch but I guess if he was my mom's brother, I wouldn't know him.
"Yeah, I'm surprised you didn't know." Lars nodded easily at the picture on my dresser of my mom, Reggie, a mystery boy, Twist, my dad and me. "That's your uncle's ranch, and that's me." He said pointing to the 'mystery' boy. The other boy's stared in an astounding manner at the picture along with me. My father was sending me to a snowboarding ranch as a punishment.
"Dude, you're so lucky!" Corey screeched like a little girl. I guess I was lucky, but I think I'd rather be in Ocean Shores. It was only ten and I had until about three to pack, it was a waste of time so we played video games.
"I'll be back guys I have to get all the stuff from the basement." I left my room and walked down the stairs and then headed into the basement.
Quickly I stepped into a dark blue pair of boxers and pulled on my dark wash jeans that Reggie fixed up last year with a razorblade. She scratched off some of the top layer to reveal the threading underneath. I pulled on a belt that was sitting on the floor and looked around for a shirt. I tossed my boxers and PJ pants from the night before in to a wash basket and I sat on the floor in front of the dryer sorting through clothing of mine and Reggie's. Tossing her stuff in one basket and my stuff in another I left my dad's stuff on the floor.
Reggie walked down the stairs and looked at me. Sorted through whatever else and tossed it in her basket and left. She seemed really mad, but she can't be mad at me it's her fault we're getting sent there. Finishing up the sorting I walked upstairs and poured the contents in my second suitcase. Tossing in all the cords to my XBOX and Wii, the boys had already put the PS2 in. I placed the systems in precariously making sure they wouldn't break.
Reggie walked in my room with the rest of the girls' and we all took pictures, man I'd miss these people so much. Even Twister and his whole sleeping with my sister, and Nikkie, when the girls' left my room I threw a bunch of my pants and boxers into my suitcase, and I opened my third one and tossed in the rest of my clothing, mostly hoodies and PJ pants. Rifling under my bed I pulled out my jewelry, necklaces and rings and stuff and poured the contents into a bag and threw it in my suitcase. The magazine fell from a stack of whatever under my bed and miraculously opened to the fold out. The boys' looked in awe at the picture. Lars was unaffected though by the picture, I'm assuming he's seen it before.
"DUDE! Is that Nikkie?" Corey howled looking at the picture. He was quiet though making sure she wouldn't hear.
"How did she get into that?" Nick asked picking up the magazine. Looks like Twist isn't the only one who has been in there now.
"I don't know, I found this rag at some stand and the guy said take it, the issue wasn't widely produced it wasn't worth shit." I told them as they continued staring at the picture. Sure I've looked at it, and sure she's hot but I felt it degrading to look at her like that because I actually know Nikkie.
"That's why no one's said anything about it." Lars said peering at the picture again.
"She is hot though." Corey said closing the magazine and throwing it back under my bed. He ruined all their fun, but I'm glad he did it instead of me.
"Definitely agreed." I replied and zipped all my bags shut. Grabbing my school book bag I crammed all of mine and Reggie's shoes that I could find into the bag. I carried it downstairs when Lars left my room to talk to Reggie. Nick carried one of my suitcases, Corey carried another, I had one in my grasp and we chucked all of it in to the back. I finally really looked at Reggie when Twister gave her his necklace. She wasn't wearing the necklace I bought her. I grabbed at my own neck and my necklace was still around my neck. It actually depressed me to see it not on her neck. She really must have been mad, we were no longer Potato and Potato Chip, I guess. More or less I'm just hoping she forgot to put it on.
Everything was in the back of the car and I was hugging everyone good bye. This was the last time I'd see them for awhile and I think it might kill me. We engaged in a final good bye hug and all the girls' kissed my cheek. I'd miss hanging out with all these kids. I sort of wonder where Sam was; I think Reggie forgot about him because he isn't around here right now. Frank's car isn't there either, so I'm guessing Sam's gone too. I knew Reggie was in the car already texting everyone at school good bye.
I clamored in the car and looked into the rear view mirror to catch my father's eyes staring intently me. His eyes seemed almost apologetic towards me but he glared towards Reggie. Turning around I waved at everyone good bye along with Reggie. Good bye Ocean Shores, hello snow bound wonderland. Actually, I think I'm going to miss Ocean Shores more then anything, and I doubt my uncle will let me go snowboarding all the time.
The second we could no longer see everyone I received a bunch of texts saying 'Bye Otto we love you' or something to that extent. I texted everyone in my phone that wasn't there and I said good bye I'm off to Colorado for the year. Many responded with what. Those I cared enough about I texted what happened. Other's I just left it for the school grapevine to take care of.
