Nikki turned around to see where Amber was pointing and directly behind her stood Cameron, which startled her. She had met Cameron before and quickly developed a crush on him. She did not know if he felt the same way.
"Hi Cameron, can you move out of the way for a sec." Amber said as she motioned for him to move.
"Uh, yeah sure." Cameron replied as he moved over.
"Damn, he must have already left!" Amber exclaimed as she realized the blonde haired boy was not at the table.
"It's ok, if he goes to our school we will have other opportunities" Nikki said and then turned to face Cameron.
"Hey Cameron, how is your day going?" Nikki asked as she looked into his eyes.
"Pretty good, I always hate the first day though." Cameron replied.
Amber, Cameron, Nikki and Rachel all got up when the bell rang and they went to their next class.

After school, Nikki met up with Bradin at the predetermined spot and they began to walk back home. As soon as they began, Lucas met up with them and joined them back at the beach house to hang out.

Amber walked out of school and waited with Rachel by her sister's car. After a few minutes, her sister, Samantha, approached the car and unlocked it. They all got in and left the school parking lot.
"So how was your first day of school?" Samantha asked as she looked over and Amber and in the rearview mirror to Rachel.
"It went well. We saw that hot guy I told you about the other day." Amber responded in a happy tone.
"Awesome. I met this really cute guy in my algebra class. He is new this year." Samantha told the girls as they pulled into the driveway.
"You should invite him over sometime." Amber said to her sister as she got out of the car and grabbed her bag from the backseat.
"Maybe I will" Samantha said with a gleam in her eye.

Back at Ava's, the kids were all relaxing after their first day of school. Nikki was lying down on the couch reading a book while Lucas and Bradin were changing to surf and getting their boards ready. Derrick hadn't gotten home from school yet since the elementary school gets out later.
"Nik, we are going to go surfing for a bit. Tell Aunt Ava we will be back before dinner." Bradin said as he opened up the back door and left.
Nikki got bored of her book and decided to call Cameron.
"Hey Cam, do you want to hang out?" Nikki inquired.
"Yeah sure, Ill be over in 10 minutes" Cameron responded and hung up the phone.
About 10 minutes later, the door bell rang and Nikki opened it to a smiling Cameron.
"Hey!" Nikki exclaimed as she opened the door.
"Hey, what do you have in mind to do today?" Cameron asked as he walked into the beach house.
"This place is cool. I have never met your family." Cameron said as he walked around, seeing a picture of the Westerly family.
"Oh, umm…that is kinda impossible to do" Nikki began to form tears in her eyes.
"Why is that?" Cameron asked and realized it was a touchy subject.
"My parents died in a flood back in Kansas, I live here with my 2 brothers and our Aunt and her roommates." Nikki explained.
"I'm sorry, you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to" Cameron said and he placed his arm around her.
"No, its ok. It's nice to get it out for once" Nikki said as she sat down on the couch.
A few hours later, Bradin and Lucas returned all wet from surfing. They took turns showering and changed for dinner. They got downstairs and saw the whole crew there, plus Nikki's new friend Cameron. Lucas and Cameron were introduced to the whole "family" and they felt very welcome.
Once dinner was finished, Nikki walked Cameron out the door, setting a time to meet before school the next day.
Lucas and Bradin went up to his room to listen to music and hang out.
"Dude, Samantha totally likes you" Lucas said to Bradin as he looked through his CD's.
"I don't know, maybe. She is in a few of my classes and we talked a bit today." Bradin told Lucas.
"You should hang out with her, ask her out on a date." Lucas suggested and noticed a smile on Bradin's face.
"I'll talk to her this week at school." He replied and laid down on his bed.
An hour later, it was getting dark out and Lucas decided he should go. Bradin and Lucas said goodbye and Lucas got to his car and drove off.
'This is going to be one interesting year' thought Bradin as he went back to his room to lay down.
