Haley woke up to the ringing of the phone.

"Not again..." she grumbled.

"Do you realize what time it is?" Haley answered.

"Sorry, but this couldn't wait," Peyton said in a very excited voice.

"What?"

"Jake and me are together!"

"What? Since when? I thought you didn't like him?"

"That was then."

"Alright, but can we talk about this later?" Peyton said as she hung up.

I was eight- thirty and Jake would be there with Jenny at nine. They were going down to the beach to play. Peyton was rushing around trying to get ready. Jake walked in with three-year-old Jenny in tow.

"Hey there," Jake said shyly.

"Hey!" Peyton said and ran over to him and hugged him.

"Pey! Pey!" Jenny wailed reaching up.

"Hey chickie!" she said and reached down and picked her up.

"Go beach?"

"Yep, Jen, we're goin' to the beach."

"Lemme get that for you," Jack said as he took her bag.

"Thanks," she said and gave him her bag.

They went down to the beach and Jenny played in the ocean. Jenny and Peyton were making a sandcastle while Jake watched them. Those are my girls. She's so good with her. He sighed to himself. Peyton looked up with her blonde curls blowing in the wind. Wow she's beautiful.

"Daddy! Come see this!" Jenny wailed.

"Jake look what Jenny found," she said pointing to a sponge.

"Wow!" he said in an overly enthusiastic voice, "Do you want it?"

"No! Daddy that's icky! Right Pey? Girls are pretty!"

"Yeah, Daddy!" Peyton mocked, "Get with it!" she continued in a mock Valley- girl voice.

Gang up on me then!" he said feigning hurt, "What's a guy got to do around here to get some love?!"

"Nothing," Peyton said and kissed him sweetly.

"Oh, right!" Nathan said coming up with Haley in tow, "Jake. In the world of girls, guys are always over run."

"Hey guys!" Peyton said.

"Aunt Hawee!" Jenny said and hugged Haley's legs.

Jake saying in a low voice, "When is she gonna realize you aren't her aunt?"

"Oh come on Jake! It's cute!"

"She won't call my sister 'aunt'!"

"Get over it, she sees me more!" Haley said punching him his arm lightly.

"Daddy! Hawee gets a toy taken!" Jenny tattled.

"What?" Haley asked shocked.

"Because you hit me. See she does take my side after all!" Jake ruffled Jenny's hair.

"Pey! He messed it up!"

"Jake! How dare you!" she teased and put Jenny's hair back into a messy bun.

"But no, what are you guys doing here?" Peyton continued.

"We're meeting Brooke and Lucas at the docks at noon. We tried to invite you three, but neither of you would answer your phone," Nathan stated.

"So that was the buzzing sound," Jake realized.

"You mean to tell me that my phone was going off and you heard it? And you didn't do anything about it? What were you just sittin there goin do do do?" Peyton asked, "Oh never mind..."

"Sorry?" Jake said with an asking sort of tone.

"Oh, forget it. I'm over it," she said in a very peppy voice.

They finished their day out playing beach ball and building one big group sandcastle. They met up with Brooke and Luke later in the day. Luke became Jenny's best friend when he bought her an ice cream cone. During the beach ball game Jenny wanted to play, so yet again, Luke to the rescue. He hoisted her onto his shoulders and let her play. Since they were using a beach ball, Jake didn't have a problem with it. Jenny fell asleep as the sun was setting, and the three couples ended a fun-filled day in a very romantic setting.
