LucyKevinFan: (May I just refer to you as LKF or Lucy?) Thanks for the review. I like being interesting :)

GG: I wondered what people would think of my making Krista preggers. She wasn't the best in the first book, but then she came back in the second book all nice. I wanted to do it with a more central character, but it didn't fit. I like writing Bee/Eric, but I'm having trouble thinking about what should happen in their storyline.

Riza: I'm glad you agree with my Lydia reaction. I thought it might be too low key. Do you think she would yell more? I had Krista and Carmen run from the table so I didn't have to write that.

Kaitlin: How can you be attached to Krista? I was wondering how people would react to her situation. If you can believe it, the Krista part isn't my most favorite thing to happen in my story (Still formulating ideas, but I've got one that sticks, and its interesting... hasn't happened yet)

Al: I don't mind corrections. Thanks. I am just going to say that down is one of those things you say when you mean "I'm going to meet this person somewhere".

Kat: I like Eric better too. You just really don't see Bridget interact that much with Billy, so I wanted to explore that. I'm not sure what guy she is going to yet. I will take your suggestion in mind.

PS, the new format for the story editing and document manager sucks!

We are the hero of our own story.

Tibby was determined to make the most of it. Stuck with three guys for two months wasn't really her idea of fun, but movie making was. She decided that she would document her stay in Florida by her self. Of course, the guys took charge of the regular shooting and Tibby was left to write notes of what the boat driver was saying. Andrew had thought it would be cool to put voice overs under the footage like in a nature documentary, as opposed to having the interviews laced within the footage. Tibby took her dvd camera out of her backpack followed by her laptop. She smiled. None of the guys had equipment comparable to what she had. Tibby plugged her laptop into the hotel's jack. Lena was online.

Lenart: OMG hi!
Tibberon: Boys stink... literally and figuratively
Lenart: aw. Am art blocked and bored. Nothing to do.
Tibberon: Its pretty here, you would like it.
Lenart: Anywhere is better than here. I am bored to tears.

Whoever said that "Silence is golden" was stupid. Just like last year, no one came to kayaking. Bridget just sat dangling her feet in the water. Billy was reading a book.

"So?" Bee broke the silence.

Billy looked up, smiled, shrugged and then wen back to reading.

"What attracted you to Diana?" Bee couldn't think of a better question.

"Her personality. You can hear her laugh for miles away. She is just so nice. It doesn't hurt that she is beautiful. I found out a couple weeks into the relationship how caring she is."

"Ah, Diana is a great friend. She always follows me on my adventures when I ask her to."

Billy nodded and then went back to silence.

Bridget remembered the time when Carmen wrote down note cards on topics that she could talk about on her date. Bee wished she had some of those cards right now. She wondered what she had ever had in common with Billy other than soccer. How could she not have anything to talk to him about? Had they really known each other over ten years? They thought they were friends, but she didn't know anything about him to strike up a conversation.

She figured it out, "Hey Billy, How are the guys in Burgess?"

"We've all kind of gone our separate ways. Its kinda weird not playing with them this summer, but most of the guys had other plans, and some of them weren't eligible anymore because they were too old. They really missed you last year. A couple of them had huge crushes on you. Most of us play for whatever college we go to. I've gotten to play against some of them. Thats always fun."

"I know what you mean. I played against some of the girls from my high school this year. I even played against Diana's team once," why did she bring up Diana? "Its kind of weird, but at the same time, you know their playing style, so its easier. They know yours as well, so then you both have a leg up, and the easiness doesn't matter anymore."

"I don't like playing against the guys I'm friends with."

"Why not?"

"Because then Ifeel bad when I slidetackle them."

"Thats understandable."

The bell rang saying that activities were over. Just as they had gotten out of their awkward silence. Bee wondered if it would be that hard to start up conversation the next day.
