Chapter 28: Down Under

Spin, I don't see anything." Jay exclaimed he turned around but Spinner wasn't there. "Spin." Jay looked in the distance and saw Spinner running. "Wait up you coward."

Spinner slowed down. "Why are you running there isn't anything out there?"

"Yes there is," Spinner said between breaths. "Look." He pointed in the distance.

He gazed into the distance and saw a small dog barking at them. "That's what you're afraid of,"Jay laughed. "A Chihuahua, that little thing wouldn't hurt a fly."

"Shut up, I thought it was something else."

"What, a poodle." Jay broke out into hysterics.

"Let's just get out of here." Spinner walked to a small gate. "Give me a boost."

"No way you're bigger then me if anyone should be giving someone a boost it should be you."

"Fine." Spinner bent down on one knee and waited for Jay to climb up. "Well, what are you waiting for." Jay climbed up and then he desperately tried to pull Spinner up.

"What do you weigh, a ton." Jay said while straining to pull Spinner up.

"I told you, you should have gave me the boost." Spinner let go of Jay's grasp. "Just find a latch or something. I'm sure there's a way out here."

"OK," Jay jumped off the gate and looked for a way out on the other side. "I can't find one." Jay searched around while Spinner walked on the opposite side.

"Keep looking." Spinner demanded.

Jay kept searching and then paused. "Looks like your little friend wants to go with you."

"What little friend?" Spinner asked.

"Turn around." Jay replied.

Spinner turned around and saw the little dog staring at him. "Hey little fella." Spinner bent down and tried to pet him but the little dog moved back and yipped. "I'm not going to hurt..ow." The little dog grabbed Spinners pants leg and pulled. "Jay hurry up and get me out of here." Spinner yelled while pulling the dog with him.

"OK, OK." Jay looked for a way out.

"Whose there," A person in the distance screamed. "I'm going to call the police!"

"Jay, hurry up," Spinner yelled while the dog still held on to his pants legs. He pulled his pants leg with all his might until the dog finally let go. The dog stayed in one place and yipped.

"Found it." Jay pulled on a latch but it wouldn't budge.

"What's taking you so long!"

"It's stuck." Jay pulled on the latch until it opened. Spinner ran through the entrance with the Chihuahua following behind. Jay closed the gate before the dog could pass.

Spinner bent down, put his hands on his knees and gasped for breath. "Wouldn't hurt...a...fly...huh."

"How was I suppose to know that little dog would turn into the dog from hell, he's worse then Kuj..I mean Jefferson."

"Whatever." Spinner said while getting up. He walked a couple of paces. "This time follow me." Spinner said. "I know wher..." Spinner suddenly disappeared.


"Sean," Emma exclaimed. She ran towards Sean, Paige, Jenny and Craig. "What are you doing here?"

"I didn't know this was a private beach the last time I checked it wasn't." Sean replied.

"But you were hiding behind a rock." Emma said.

"What this rock." Paige hit it. "Oh he was just helping me find my...earring." Paige pulled on her earlobe. "Oh silly me it was here all along,thanks Sean." Paige smiled at Sean who looked really annoyed she turned her attention to the rest of the group."We didn't know you guys would be here."

"Yeah I'm surprised you guys went to this beach." Jenny said to Emma. "Everyone goes to Lakeside now. This beach is pretty deserted at night since the new residents complained about the loud excessive noise and partying. I keep forgetting you guys don't know this area very well but not too many visitors know the way to this beach, it's pretty difficult to get too. I know why Emma would come here with J but Paige, Sean, how did you guys find it."

"Umm," Sean mumbled

"We'll, I wanted Sean to take me to the mall." Paige interrupted. "I even gave him the keys to Dylan's car but somehow he made a wrong turn and we ended up here. It's kind of a coincidence you guys are here." Paige nervously laughed.

"Jenny, how did you know J would know the way here," Craig asked.

"Do you know him," Emma questioned Jenny.

"You can say that." Jenny uttered.

"Oh don't make such a big deal out of it Emma." J walked up towards the group. "We just dated off and on for years. Jenny you're looking we'll." J smiled while staring at Jenny and then Craig who was holding the infamous guitar. "And I see you still have a thing for musicians although isn't he little bit too young for you."

"You should talk.Emma isn't really legal and I know the press would love to know there you're dating a girl old enough to be you're younger sister." Jenny smiled.

"Jenny you dated J," Emma replied. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't think there was anything to tell." Jenny shrugged. "Besides me and J are ancient history. We haven't been together since I was in high school."

"Yeah but still." Emma mumbled.

"But still, nothing, J and I are finished." Jenny replied. "Now if you excuse me. Craig and I were just on our way to MP." She grabbed Craig by his hand and walked away with him.

Wait, whats MP." Craig asked.

"Make out Point." J angrily replied.

"Were going to make out." Craig exclaimed. He wasn't sure if he should be happy, angry, excited or all three.

"No," Jenny replied. "MP is the only place on the beach with log stoop benches. We're going to need a place to sit." Jenny walked towards MP and in the distance she noticed a fire was set. "What the." Jenny mumbled.

"Like you said." J replied. "MP is the only where on the beach were you can sit."

"And make out." Jenny uttered.

"Wait a minute." Sean replied "You brought her here to make out with you."

"What if he did." Emma replied "It's really none of your business. And you still haven't explained the real reason you're here."

"Paige told you, we made a wrong turn." Sean exclaimed.

"Since J and Emma were here first maybe we should just go back home." Craig said to Jenny.

"No, J is just going to have to share."

"No way, I was here first. You and music boy go over there and take that clown with you." J pointed at Sean.

"Wait what did you just call me." Sean yelled.

"You heard me," J exclaimed. "You're stalking Emma like you're her bodyguard and don't think this isn't the first time I haven't noticed you in the rear-view checking on us."

"What, you were spying on me," Emma yelled at Sean. Sean didn't utter a word. "I can't believe this." Emma stormed towards the fire but turned back around and glared at Sean. "Next time, do me a favor and take care of yourself contrary to popular belief I'm a big girl now and I can take care of myself." Emma walked towards the fire.

J glanced at Sean who didn't look too please. He smirked at Sean and then ran after Emma."Wait up."

"We'll," Jenny uttered. "I don't' care what J says he doesn't own the beach and he's just going to have to share that space." Jenny walked towards the fire before turning back around and noticing Craig was still standing by Paige and Sean. "Are you coming or not?"

"Uh..Yeah." Craig followed Jenny.

"Well, that was interesting." Paige replied. "Looks like you're secret is out, so lets just call it a night and go home. I think there's some leftover pizza in the fridge. I'm know I'm hungry, how about you?" Paige looked at Sean. He didn't respond and he still looked really angry and upset. "Yoo hoo, earth to Sean?" Paige waved her hand in front of Sean's face. Sean began walking towards the fire. "Hey, the car is that way." Paige pointed to the parking lot.

"I'm not going home," Sean turned around and tossed the keys to Paige. "If you want you can drive home you're only need one leg to do that." Sean turned around and walked faster.

"Paige rolled her eyes and mumbled to herself. "I can't believe, I'm doing this," Paige ran towards Sean."Wait up"
