Rory and Tristan marched up to the meeting room and met up with the group. It was basically the same as yesterday, Kathryn was popping a million vitamins in her mouth; Ella and Bella were completing each other's sentences, and Abby was being a whore.

"Oh hi Tristan," Abby winked seductively at Tristan.

"Hi." He replied awkwardly.

"Oh, Christ! Stop with the flirting, you ho! Everyone knows Tristan and Rory are going out! I mean we all saw them making out wherever they went!" Kathryn yelled at Abby.

"Oh shut up! You're such a bitch!" Abby replied with the same tone.

"You're calling me a bitch?" Right then, Gen walked into the small room.

"Good morning everyone." She smiled and closed the door behind her.

"Good morning, Ms. Gen." Kathryn smiled sweetly.

"Well as you all remember me saying, we're going down to the swimming hole today. So I want you all to put on your bathing suits, if you haven't already, one at a time in the bathroom right there." She pointed to a small bathroom in the corner.

"May I go first, everyone?" Ella asked.

"Yes you may." Gen nodded.

"I'll go second." Bella said.

"Do you have your bathing suit on?" Tristan whispered to Rory.

"No."

He nodded.

"What no sleazy comment?" She grinned.

"Nope. I decided to be nice. for now."

Ella came out seconds later, and Bella entered the tiny bathroom.

"I think I'm just going to my own bathroom." Gregory stated and walked out.

Bella came out, and Kathryn went in.

"When you say 'swimming hole' you mean a private pool, right?" Abby asked Gen.

"I mean exactly what I said. A swimming hole is a swimming hole." Gen answered.

"Oh."

"It's not bad, Abby. It's a natural hole with water filled in it, with tons of cool plants around it." Ella said.

"And sometimes, if we're lucky, there are butterflies." Bella added.

"Butterflies?" Abby asked frightened.

"Yeah."

"Are you okay, Abby?" Gen asked the girl.

"I'm- I'm okay."

Just then, Gregory came back, and Kathryn got out the bathroom.

"Abby would you like to go next?" Gen asked.

She nodded, and went into the small bathroom.

There was silence in the room until Abby came out, ten minutes later.

"What took you so long?" Gregory asked. "I had to put on my bathing suit, makeup, and a tiny bit of sun block, thank you." She replied.

Ella and Bella giggled softly.

"Rory why don't you go in next, then you Tristan, then me." Gen said.

"Ok." Rory left the room, and came back a few minutes later.

Tristan then walked into the bathroom, and he too came back a few minutes later.

"Ok well now it's my turn. I'll be right back." Gen walked out with that.

"God, that lady is annoying." Kathryn said rolling her eyes.

"Yeah, you really think that, huh? You suck up." Abby replied.

"Whatever. At least I'm not afraid of butterflies."

Ella, Bella, and Gregory began chatting about something that was no interest to the rest of them, as Abby and Kathryn argued, ONCE AGAIN.

"Rory?" Tristan asked her quietly.

"What?" She answered.

He kissed her softly on the lips.

"What was that for?" She smiled.

"For being you."

Right then, Gen walked out. "Okay, are you all ready to go?"

"Yeah." They replied in unison.

"Ok well let's go." They all walked out the room, with Tristan and Rory in the back, like always.

They arrived at the swimming hole, ten minutes later, after walking through what seemed like ten miles of wooded areas.

"Well here we are. But before we begin just hanging out, I've been given some ground rules I need to tell you all about. One, no diving, this hole is not very deep. Two, no sun bathing. Three, DO NOT, I repeat, do NOT touch any plants you cannot identify. Ok, well go ahead, play." Gen walked off to God knows where, leaving the group alone.

Gregory began sliding of a slant into the water (if that makes sense, you know what I'm talking about.) Ella and Bella swam around like lost ducks, and Kathryn and Abby argued like they always did.

Rory took off her shirt and shorts to reveal a cute matching tankini and boy shorts.

"Cute." Tristan commented on the little yellow duck on the side of her shorts.

She laughed, "Yeah, my mom helped pick it out. You look cute yourself."

"Why thank you, Miss Gilmore." He said in a fake country accent.

They walked into the swimming hole, hand in hand.

Rory dipped her head in the water to get her hair wet, "This water is extremely warm."

He nodded, "Do you want to just sit on the side for a while?"

"Yeah, maybe until the sun isn't directly over it." They swam to the side and sat, with only their legs in the water.

"I can't wait until school begins." Rory commented out of no where.

"Why?"

"The summer is getting boring, do nothing all day long. At least with school, I won't have that problem." Rory sighed.

"Hey! You get to see me don't you?"

"Yeah, but I get to see more of you during the school year."

"True, true." Just then, some clouds covered the sun.

"Do you want to get back in?" Tristan asked her.

"Yeah, it probably isn't going to be as warm."

They swam around for a while, playing games like Marco Polo, until Rory couldn't find Tristan.

"Tristan? Where are you?" All she could see was the rest of the group.

Suddenly, something grabbed her foot, and she yelled slightly.

"Haha! I scared you!" He smiled coming out of the water.

"That wasn't funny!"

"To me it was."
