Tanner's Back
Kayla, Bradin, Callie, and Lucas were sitting on the beach talking and hanging out. "So Lucas, have you talked to Alex?" Kayla asked. "Yeah a little, but with the time
difference and all…" He frowned. I can't even hear her voice, like my parents would let me call New Jersey." He said. "You can use my cell later." She said again. "Thanks." He said. "Hey Kay come surf with me!" A girl in the water yelled. Kay looked out there. "It
was Courtney, a girl she met in her class when she just moved there. "Come on Cal, you
want to come?" Kay asked. "Um, no thanks, Courtney doesn't like me very much." Callie said. "Why not? Come on maybe she'll like you if you hang out with both of us." Kay smiled. "Okay." They both grabbed there boards and went out to the water and Bradin
and Lucas stayed back to watch and talk. "Hey Court, is it okay if Callie hangs out with us?" Kayla asked. "Um…sure." She said giving her a small smile. They paddled out and
Kayla was the first to catch a wave. "She's good for a Jersey girl huh?" Courtney asked Callie. "Yeah, she is." She said feeling uncomfortable. "I'm not going to kill you, you know." Courtney said. "Uh yeah, just a little shy, I thought you didn't like me." Callie
said. "Well, I guess you're okay, I mean, a little bit of a geek at times but, you're Kayla's friend and she made it seem like you were cool, so I'm gonna trust her judgment." She
said as she paddled out and caught a wave. After a while Courtney left and the girls
decided to head to shore. At that time Lucas ran off to get some food, and Bradin was gonna catch some waves. Kayla laid out on her towel face up with her eyes closed. "Guess who?" said a deep voice. Kayla freaked out but couldn't open her eyes and
couldn't speak. "Leave her alone." Callie said. He took his hands off her eyes. "So you can get a better look at this." Tanner said. "Go away Tanner…" Callie said a little louder.
"Or else what?" He said angrily. Kayla stood up to get away but he grabbed her around her waste. "She wants me, she just won't admit it. Where's your bracelet?" He asked. Kayla was wide eyed and scared. "Tanner leave her ALONE!" Callie shouted. At this
point Bradin saw him and started paddling back in. "Kay run." Callie said sternly. She tried to but Tanner held her even tighter, he puller her into him and kissed her. Bradin
was pissed so he ran on-shore and threw his board down. "Get off of her!" Bradin yelled. "Or else what Westerly?" He asked. "You asshole!" He yelled and punched him. Tanner fell taking Kay with him. She quickly got up, but he fell on her foot, so her ankle got hurt. Callie helped her walk away and Bradin and Tanner finished up fighting. Bradin ran
over with a black and blue eye and a bloody lip. "Are you okay?" Bradin asked. She nodded. "What about you?" She asked him. "Fine." He smiled. "Lets go to my house and get you two fixed up." Callie said. She pulled out her keys, they loaded their stuff up in
her car, and they drove to the store to get an ace bandage for Kay, and ice for Bradin. When they got to her house Callie's mom wrapped up Kayla's leg and iced Bradin's eye.
"I have to get going. My mom wants me home for dinner." Kayla got up and almost fell so Bradin supported her and walked her home.
