"Bradin, I have one last question for you," Kay said smiling at the doorway to his room.

"Alright, ask away, even though I think I told you like every single detail of my life today," he said, making her laugh.

"You a single guy or what?" she asked him, smiling. She wasn't really that interested in him but he was cute.

"No, girlfriend, her name's Sarah," he said, thinking of his blonde girlfriend, "Why do you ask? You like what you see?"

She laughed again, "No, I was just wondering,"

"What about you? Did you leave your boyfriend to move out here?" he asked her, wondering as well.

"No, just a couple of summers ago, there was this one guy who came to Austrailia on vaycay, but his letters stopped, we were close that summer though, but since then nothing," she said, sighing and thinking of her old flame.

"Aww, that must really suck, and now I have a question for you,"

"Alright, go ahead,"

"Shouldn't you be like really tired right now? With the whole time change and all, you know, jet lag?"

"Time is nothing to me, you could find me up in the middle of the night doing yoga, not tired at all," she said, yawning, "Except for now, I guess I am tired, goodnight then,"

"G'night,"

"So if you only surf in your spare time, what was that?" Bradin asked Kay the next morning, really amazed by her surfing skill. She smiled and shrugged, walking back up to the house, her borrowed surf board sitting under her arm.

"I guess it's in my blood or something, but not from my mom's side of the family, she has no balance at all," Kay said, smiling.

"That must be the reason, because people told me I'm a natural, you must be like super natural or something," Bradin said in all seriousness, making her laugh. They walked into the house, to the smell of breakfast. True, Kay had gotten up early to surf and Bradin joined her, and it was all before breakfast.

"Where have you two been?" was the first question asked when the walked into the house. Bradin gave his aunt and Jay a surprised look, both of them obviously worried.

"We were out surfing, what's the problem?" Bradin asked glancing over at Kay who had an identical look of surprise on her face.

"Why didn't you leave a note? Or tell someone?" Jay asked, with both of the teens looking over at Derrick, who was sitting on the couch.

"We didn't think of leaving a note," Kay said.

"And we told Derrick and he said he would tell you when you got up," Bradin said, giving his brother a look.

"It, uh, slipped my mind?" Derrick stated innocently, shrugging.

"Bradin, you should know better, and next time, leave a note don't tell your brother," Ava said, shaking her head and heading back to the kitchen. Kay and Bradin both took a seat at the table too, Kay having toast while Bradin enjoyed his cereal. After a while, Johnny and Susanna had left for work, and Jay was just leaving.

"So family, or part family, part people I am getting to know and I live with, is there a mall here in Playa Linda?" Kay asked, putting her dishes away in the sink.

"Yah, a little bit passed the board walk, definite walking distance," Bradin said, doing the same with his dishes.

"I could take you there, I need to get some new lip gloss anyway, how about it?" Nikki said, in an excited sort of way.

"Sure, sounds fun, is that okay..uh..Ava?" Kay said, kind of nervously.

"Yah, go ahead," Ava said, smiling. Kay smiled, and Nikki's face lit up.

"Alright, let's go then," Kay said, motioning to the door. She and Nikki walked to the mall, talking like they were old friends.

"So what else is there to do for fun here? I mean other than the beach, which can get boring after living beside one your whole life?" Kay asked as they walked.

"Well, the mall isn't too much, but for a smaller town like this, it's pretty good, but not much else. You have to make your own fun, you know?" Nikki replied, kicking some rocks at her feet.

"I'm pretty good at making my own fun," Kay said smiling as they reached the mall. Nikki laughed and they headed through the mall, Kay stopping at the shoe store.

"I need some new sandals, let's go" she said, walking into the mall, Nikki trailing.

"How long have you and your brothers lived here?" Kay asked her, as they browsed the shoes.

"Almost two months, around mid june," Nikki said, walking over to the sandals. Kay found her perfect pair of sandals, flipflops which were a pale pink.

"My friend Amber has those, they are so comfy," Nikki said as they checked out. Kay pulled some money out of her wallet and looked up at the cashier, and her eyes widened.

"Kaylie? Is that you?" the guy asked, smiling.

Kay smiled, "oh my god, Tanner!"
