Katie sat on the beach that Saturday morning, and watched the waves come in and go out. She let the tears silently roll down her cheeks as she remembered that fateful night.
Flashback
"Katie, get in here." Casey yelled.
"I have to shower." Katie replied.
"This is important." Leo called to her.
"What?" she walked into the room, and saw her grandmother sitting on the couch crying.
"What's wrong?" Katie knelt in front of her Nana.
"You're parents were in a car accident. It flipped, and exploded." Her grandmother sobbed.
"But they're okay, right?" Katie began to breathe heavily.
Nana just shook her head. "They're dead."
End Flashback
"Hey." Bradin came up behind her. "Why are you out here all alone?"
"Just thinking." She wiped her tears away.
"This is a good place for that." He sat next to her in his wet suit. "I used to come sit here and think all the time."
"Great minds think alike I guess." Katie pasted on her fake smile.
"Don't worry about being happy. I know what you're going through, remember. You can mope in front of me." He assured her.
"I don't mope." She giggled.
"Oh, okay, so that pout from last night at dinner, that was you not moping about eating chicken." Bradin said sarcastically.
"You..." Katie laughed. "I do not mope... I am a cheerleader."
"Cheerleaders don't mope?" Bradin smiled.
"No we don't." Katie stood up.
"Oh okay." Bradin said. "Nikki told me you used to surf."
"That was a long time ago. Jay was teaching me. He also taught me how to skateboard, and rollerblade. But I don't do any of it anymore." Katie sat back down.
"Do you want to? I'll teach you." Bradin offered.
"Maybe later." Katie laid back in the sand.
"You know what sucks?" Bradin asked not expecting her to say what he was thinking.
Before she realized what she was saying, Katie spoke. "The no in-house dating rule?" she blushed crimson.
"Actually, yeah." Bradin laughed. "You only say that because you want to date Johnny."
"Ew. Johnny's cute, but he is way too old." She giggled.
"My little brother? That's so gross he's only 8." Bradin laugher even harder.
"No. See he's way too young." Katie smiled.
"Well, you can't date your cousin, so that leaves one guy." Bradin laid back next to her.
"You're catching on." Katie flirted. "And I hope that one guy likes me better than my sister."
"That one guy doesn't really know your sister." He flirted.
"Oh well she told me that she liked him last night. She said he is the only white boy she would ever date." Katie confessed.
"Wait. She's white." Bradin said.
"Thank you, Captain Obvious." Katie laughed. "But we are getting off the subject. Does that guy like me?"
"Well aren't you self-centered?" Bradin joked.
"Ugh. You're hopeless. B, do you like me, or not?" Katie rolled onto her stomach to look straight into his eyes.
"Well, lets see you're beautiful. You're funny, and sweet, and we relate very well to each other, but that is like all I know about you really?" Bradin put his hands behind his head. "From what I do know though, yeah, Katie, I like you a lot."
Plotline Change
Leo was asleep in a chair in the living room while a movie about a murder was on. Nikki walked into the room, and sat quietly next to him. She changed the channel, and watched a reality TV show. She glanced over at his electric hair, and giggled to herself.
As she leaned back on the couch, and Leo awoke with a start. "It's okay. It's just me." She soothed.
He sat back, and looked at the TV screen. "What happened to my movie?"
"I changed it because you were asleep." Nikki told him.
"Oh. How old are you?" he asked, randomly.
"14." She told him.
"Aren't you like a genius or something?" Leo was full of questions.
"No. I'm just smart, and I like to study." Nikki was almost offended. "Aren't you a delinquent?"
"No. I'm just smart, and I hate being like everyone else." Leo replied.
Plotline Change
Casey sat on the porch, and watched the really hot Bradin surf. His wet body gleamed in the sunlight. He came out of the water every so often, and would talk to someone on the beach.
That boy definitely wanted her, and she could tell. He looked at the twins the first time they saw each other, and she knew that he liked the rough and tough women. Not someone like her sister. She wanted him right back.
She vowed to herself that she would have that boy.
