Elizabeth and Jessica arrived at the beach. Everyone was already there... with the exception of Ken,Maria, and Conner.

"Hey guys! Over here!" Tia called, pointing to where their stuff was. They dropped off their stuff, and Jessica immediately stripped down to her bikini.

"Woo! Go Jess!" Tia yelled, and then whistled. Someone laughed,

"Tee, sorry, but Jess is mine, ok?"

It was Jeremy! "Jer! I'm so sorry that I kinda forgot you before!" She said, running over to him and jumping into his arms.

"Don't worry about it, Jess." Jeremy said softly, giving her a quick kiss. Liz still hadn't taken off her t-shirt and denim shorts that she had thrown casually over her bikini. Just then, Maria and Ken arrived.

"MARIA! KEN! OVER HERE!" Tia yelled at the top of her lungs.

"Tee, watch out. I have a feeling the couple next to us is plotting to kill you." Andy said calmly.

"Andy! It's not a crime to be excited!" she said with disdain. Ken and Maria came over and Liz ran over to Maria. "Hey Liz! Wow, you look so beautiful!" Liz smiled. "You do too. How's YALE?" she asked excitedly. "We have a LOT to talk about Liz, okay? I'm just so happy to see you!" Maria and Ken quickly said hi to everyone else. (A/N: Can you tell I'm sick of reunions?)

"Alright guys, cmon we're going in the ocean!" Evan said, grabbing Elizabeth and Tia by their arms. Tia laughed.

"I'm not protesting! But Liz, do me a favour and take off your shorts and t-shirt!"

Liz laughed meekly. "Well.. I'm not gonna go in the water right away. I think I'll um.. take a quick breather."

Both Tia and Evan put their hands on their hips and stared at her skeptically. "

Well.. you know.. I thought that I'd.. umm sort of brainstorm for what else we could do? Besides the Riot? I could even, uh.. iron out the details of the sleepover?" Immediately Tia and Evan both gave in, cause they were totally supporting the idea of hanging out all night.

"Well.. fine. But you better come in later, k?" Tia said slowly.

"Yeah, for sure guys. I just need to chill a bit." She lay down on her towel, still in her t-shirt and cut-offs. She had just started to doze off when she saw someone's shadow above her. Startled, she sat up quickly. She blinked a few times, very confused. Why would Conner show up at the beach in jeans?

"Conner?" she asked skeptically.

"Yeah, it's me." he said.

She paused for a minute, trying to comprehend the situation. Her brain felt foggy from her interrupted nap. "But.. why... are you wearing.. jeans???" she asked slowly.

"Long story. Basically I don't have a bathing suit."

"Oh.." Liz said, trying to shield her eyes from the impossibly bright sun. Tia came out of the water, soaking wet.

"Conner!" she said waving, as she ran over. "Why are you in jeans? This is the beach!"

Conner groaned. "Look Tee, I don't have a bathing suit, ok?" He said evenly. Tia looked very skeptical.

"Well... you can't just sit around here alone! Liz is coming in the water soon! Honestly Conner! Who doesn't have a bathing suit!" Tia was getting very worked up. Conner said nothing. He just shrugged.

Tia sighed. "Fine. You and Liz are gonna have to go buy one. Honestly. Liz, I'm sorry, it's just that you're the only non-wet person. Just go to the nearest Walmart or K-mart or something and buy a bathing suit. Please."

Liz looked at Conner. He smirked.

"Well Liz, looks like we're going shopping."
