A/N: Silly me, I forgot to say what the guys look like! Obi-wan is Episode II Obi-wan, and Anakin is the same age that he is in Episode II (19) but looks like he does in Episode III. And for those of you who are curious, Cali has medium length (naturally brown but) dyed blonde curly hair and brown eyes, Cierra has medium/long blonde (with lots of dark blonde) curly hair and blue eyes, and Jade has long darkish-brown straight/wavy hair and blue eyes.

Also, (I just want to say this for fun; don't ask why) The three girls (Jade, Cierra, and Cali) are me and my two best friends. Jade: Me, Cierra: My best friend Cierra Skywalker, Cali: My other best friend Cali Skywalker. (Kinda repetitive, don't ya think? Also, I'm sorry if some of this sounds really weird, I'm just really hyper at the moment.)

Disclaimer: I do not own Star Wars, or Cierra, or Cali, or Joe, or Frank, or Jazz, or...anything! Except myself (Jade) and my dogs.

Alrighty, this chapter (and the next one) are dedicated to xendofheartache! You have also been such a faithful reviewer, thank you so much:D

To my loverly reviewer(s):

Stephanie C: Your welcome:) To answer your question, no, actually. Demi is the real name of the girl, but I have no idea what her friends' names are; Jessica and Rachel were just the first things that popped into my head. Yes, I have no doubt whatsoever of what Padme would have done to Rachel. lol! (Just a note: I know that Anakin's married, but in this story he's not. I'm not sure which chapter that explanation will be in yet, but I'm working on it.)

beachblondiie92: I'm glad you like it! I'm glad you like Jade, too. Yay! I didn't expect a blonde to give me a nice review! ;) I know several nice blondes, my two best friends included. And here's an update!

xendofheartache: lol! Hope you like this chap and the next one, 'cuz they're dedicated to you. :)

Audra Laudarque: Why, thank you! Thank you very much. :) Hope you like this chapter and continue to review on my story!

Chapter Five: Swimming Lessons

When they left for home, Jade and her group got stuck at several red lights, so Cierra and her group were way ahead of them. As soon as Jade walked up to the door of the house, she was greeted by a familiar barking.

She led the rest of the guys (Anakin, Frank, and Yoda) inside, and was saw that Cierra was holding a dog. "Did you decide to bring Jazz over?" She asked as she walked over and petted the little dog.

"Yeah. I thought it would probably be better for her, and it's easier for me to take care of her. Plus, there's plenty of room here." Cierra replied.

Jade nodded, then looked around and asked,"Where's the rest of the group?"

"Cali and Joe are getting ready to go swimming, but Obi-wan's been waiting for you to come with his and Anakin's stuff. He's over checking out the computer." Cierra said, nodding towards the office door.

"Okay." Jade pulled the swimsuits out of the bags, and handed one to Anakin who was standing right next to her. "Here, go to the 'fresher and put this on." She instructed, and left to give Obi-wan his.

After a while, everyone was ready and they went outside. Cierra, Cali, Joe, and Obi-wan were the first ones in, while Frank and Yoda sat on the pool chairs and talked. Jade was about to get in, when she saw that Anakin was just looking very unsure at the water.

"What's wrong, Anakin?" She asked.

"Uh, well, I uh, you see it's...well, the thing is...um," Anakin mumbled a bit embarrassed.

Obi-wan stopped splashing in the water, and turned to see Anakin. Cupping his hands over his mouth, he shouted to Jade,"What he means is that he can't swim!" Everyone starting choking, trying to hold in their laughter.

Anakin turned red, and glared at Obi-wan. Jade looked over. "Are you serious?" She asked incredulously.

He nodded his head, and looked down. Jade gave an understanding smile. "Don't worry, we'll help you! Right, guys?" She added, turning to the others. Everyone nodded. "See?" She said.

He looked doubtful, but allowed her to pull him into the water. "Okay, the first thing that we do is..."

About an hour or so later, Anakin was swimming like a pro; Even better than the rest of the group!

After a while, Cierra snuck up behind Obi-wan and dunked him underwater. He came up coughing and sputtering, while Anakin starting laughing his head off. But he was quickly silenced, as Jade pushed him underwater. This time, Obi-wan was the one laughing.

As Anakin came up, Jade took one look at his face, and burst out laughing hysterically. He just glared at her, then splashed her in the face. So she splashed him back, and in the process, accidentally got Cierra and Cali.

In no time, everyone was participating in the splashing-war, until they heard a loud shout. They all stopped and turned to see both Frank and Yoda dripping wet at the side of the pool, glaring accusingly at them.

"Heh, heh. Oops!" Jade said.

"Not funny, that was. In bigtrouble you all are. Punished, you must be. Make myself clear, do I?" Yoda said.

Everyone nodded meekly. "Yes, Master Yoda."

He nodded his head in satisfaction. "Good."

Frank got them both towels to dry off, so they went inside and shut the sliding glass door. But no one saw Frank lock the door behind them.

The group looked at each other.

"Well, that could have been worse." Cali quipped.

Cierra shrugged. "Yeah."

"Anyone up for Marco Polo?" Jade asked.

"What's that?" Obi-wan asked.

After Cierra explained the rules, Anakin volunteered to be it.

"No using the Force!" Jade added.

Anakin made a pouty face for a moment, but soon got over it.

"Marco?" He called.

"Polo!" Everyone else yelled.

Anakin grinned and went straight towards Jade. She barely got out of the way in time, and Anakin kept going and instead caught Obi-wan. "Gotcha!" He said with glee, but then opened his eyes and saw Obi-wan. "Aww, man!" He groaned.

Jade giggled. "Better luck next time!" She said.

After a while, everyone had had a turn, and they stopped playing.

"Hey, guys? How about we go inside now, the wind's picking up." Cierra said.

They all agreed and got out. "Brr! It's actually cold!" Jade said.

Cierra gave her a 'no,duh!" look. "Of course it seems cold! It's windy, and we just got out of the pool."

Jade shrugged, and handed out the towels. Cali was the first one to the door. She tried to open it, but frowned and said,"It's not opening!"

"Here, let me try." Joe said. But he tried and failed as well.

Realization dawned on Jade. "They locked the door on us!" She said.

Sure enough, they looked and saw Frank grinning smugly at them from the living room.

"I guess it's our punishment." Cierra said.

"Anakin, can you try to use the Force on the door or something?" Jade asked, looking hopefully up at him.

He tried and shook his head. "Yoda's blocking it." He explained.

They thought for a minute, when Jade said,"Wait! I left the upstairs bathroom window open this morning. Anakin and Obi-wan can Force-jump up, and take us with them! One at a time, of course."

The Jedi nodded their heads thoughtfully. "It could work," Obi-wan mused.

"Okay, let's try it!" Anakin said. "I'll go first and take Jade with me."

Jade looked at him in surprise, but he didn't seem to see it. She looked over at Cierra who winked knowingly at her. 'Go on!' She mouthed.

Anakin then put his arm around Jade's waist, and jumped up. He landed on the window sill, but lost his balance and fell through the open window into the bathtub, pinning Jade under him.

He quickly got up and held a hand out to her. "Sorry!" He apologized. She just nodded her head, and turned back to the window and called out,"Alright, Obi-wan and Cierra next. Then Anakin and Obi-wan will jump back down to get Joe and Cali."

Obi-wan came up with Cierra, and landed gracefully on the floor, Cierra in his arms. He smiled smugly at Anakin, who just looked very annoyed. "Well, go on and get the other two!" Jade said, pushing them both out.

Anakin landed gracefully on his feet, while Obi-wan...didn't. (Let's just say he was kinda sore for a while.) This time it was Anakin's turn to rub it in.

"Okay, I guess...you'll take Cali and I'll take Joe," He decided. Obi-wan agreed.

When they got back up, Cierra and Jade were there, already dressed, and handed the guys their clothes.

When they were ready, they proceeded to walk down the stairs where Yoda and Frank were sitting on the couch talking and eating chips.

Frank looked up in disbelief. "How'd you get in here?" He asked.

"That's for us to know, and you not to find out." Jade said, taunting.

He just shrugged.

"So, what do we do now?" Cali asked.

"Let's go get some movies! And food!" Jade exclaimed.

So it was agreed. They would go to get pizza, and then get some movies. Cierra led the way to her car, and they piled in.
