The rest of the year went by uneventful, if you don't count me threatening and sometimes beating up Dave as uneventful. Finally he got the clue and stopped, he never really came around the shop anymore. It didn't seem like anyone really cared, even Ryan could care less. I woke up at 4:30 stretching out before I got my surfboard. I could hear my dad snoring and stifled a laugh. I put on my bathing suit and wet suit and pulled my hair up into a bun. I heard someone throw a stone onto my window and knew that it was Tony. "I'll be right down" I whispered and tip toed downstairs. For the past year Tony and I had gone down to the Cove about an hour before everyone else showed up so he could teach me how to surf. "Hey" I said when I saw him leaning against the white fence we had surrounding the house

"Hey" he said and we walked down the rode towards Santa Monica Boulevard (A/N: LMAO the DVD I have of LOD came with a cool map so I'm using that for some of this stuff). You could tell when we got to the not so nice part of town because it looked darker, if that's possible. "Stay close" Tony said and moved closer as if he was protecting me, believe me I didn't object. About ten minutes later we made it to P.O.P. Jay and Stacy were already there. The "Elders" came out of the water after catching some waves "Stacy, Tony you're in the water. Dana you're on car duty. Jay you're on garbage duty" Skip ordered. Stacy and Tony zipped up their wet suits and picked up their boards before they headed out to the nice waves waiting for them. I sat cross legged on the board walk waiting to see if some idiots decided to try and get into the cave.

"Hey Billy" I said to a drunk, but nice, old man who walked by

"Hey Dana, Skip put you on car duty?"

"You know it" right after I said that a nice white colored car pulled up. This got my attention and I stood up. Jay was above me picking up some beer bottles

"Vals" he called out and I made my way over to them. They looked a little older then me with new wet suits and boards tucked underneath their arms

"Hey guys, are you like going surfing?" I asked trying my best to sound like a girl from the Valley as I twirled hair around my finger

"Yes we are pretty lady, care to watch?"

"Sure, oh no I forgot my purse in my car. I'll like be right back" I said and when they were out of sight I gagged. I hated doing this but if I got to surf I didn't care. I turned around to make sure they weren't waiting. They were making their way through the debris already. I lifted up the hood of their car and ripped out the carburetor. When I got close to the cover Jay was waiting their and I gave him the carburetor.

"You know what to do" I said and leaned against one of the rotting pillars watching as Jay surfed out

Out in the Cove

Jay paddled out with the carburetor underneath his chest so it wasn't too visible "Do you guys own at 74 Cadillac Convertible?" he asked

"Yea why?" one of the guys asked as everyone else started to come over to them. Jay didn't say anything but lifted up the carburetor "Hey that's my carburetor!" he said right as Jay dropped it into the water

"Go back to the Valley you kooks!" I yelled from the boardwalk and threw a rock that I had just recently found and it landed perfectly on one of the guy's surfboard breaking off the front of it. Everyone started splashing water on them until they got out of the water. Once they were back in the parking lot trying to figure out how to start the car I met everyone at the shore.

"Jay, Dana you two are in" Skip said

"Dana, don't try anything fancy. Just do what you can" Tony said and sat down next to Stacy and the rest of the guys. Once we got out far enough Jay and I sat up on the surf boards waiting for some good waves.

"You can have this one" I offered Jay

He looked at the wave and approved it "Thanks" he said preparing himself and paddled out a little before he stood up. He moved around skillfully on the surfboard and when he was close enough to shore I took the next wave. I didn't move around as much as Jay did but I managed to stay on and made it to the end.

"Not bad" Skip said and pulled out a small bottle of liquor as Stecyk took some pictures

"Come on you know I'm not photogenic" I said putting my hand close the lens of the camera. After Sid was done cleaning up the shop, which Skip gratefully asked him to do. We decided to go skating. Jay was telling us about how Kerry and him had gotten to "second base" but stopped when a girl with dark brown hair and brown eyes walked past us. He quickly put his foot on the ground to stop his skateboard.

"Hey baby what's going on?" he asked in his "seductive" voice as he called it

"Aren't you Jay Adams?" she asked him

"Yea I am" he said and his ego grin came onto his face

"Yea we're in math together" she said recognition in her voice

"I don't remember seeing you" he looked her over "I think I would remember seeing someone as beautiful as you" he said not realizing that we all rolled our eyes

"I'm Dawn" she said (A/N: I hope you're a happy seal :D)

"Well it's nice to meet you Dawn" he said shaking her hand "We're having a party later at Zephyr surf shop. Come by at around ten"

"Gnarly see you later" she said and walked away

"What happened to Mary?" I asked raising an eyebrow

"Who?" he asked staring at Dawn as she walked down the boardwalk

"Man you can never stay with one girl can you?" I remembered how Ellie and Jay had gone out for awhile but Jay became interested in Mary who seemed to be the same way with him and dumped Amy. Amy had moved on though to a guy named Chris who was a year older then her.

"Ok boys I'm going to go hang with the girls for awhile" I said and left them as I walked towards Tony's house where we were all meeting up. "Dana has arrived" I said leaning up against the side of the door as if I was a model.

"Dee" Kathy squealed

"Hey girls" I said giving each of them a hug

"Can I get you anything to drink?" Kathy asked disappearing into the kitchen

"No thanks I'm good" I said and sat down on the couch. When Kathy came out of the kitchen with a bottle of soda she still had the smile on her face that she had greeted me with "Ok Kath what's up?"

"What do you mean?" she asked me in an innocent voice

"You haven't stopped smiling since I got here"

"Yea she's been like this since we got here" Ellie said

"Can't I just smile?"

"Kathy did you get laid?" I asked

"NO!" she said shocked that I would actually accuse her of doing that

"Ok chill" I said defensively "So why are you smiling so much?"

"Well if I told you guys promise not to tell my brother he would be so pissed"

"We won't" Ellie, Amy, and I all said together making us laugh

"Stacy kissed me"

"Really?" Ellie asked in a high pitched voice

"Yea" this made all of us jump up and down like five year olds

"You better have kissed back" Ellie said

"Ellie, why wouldn't I?"

"Good point" Ellie said. When we all settled down Kathy told us how the other day Stacy and Jay were over…

Flashback

"Jay come in here man you gotta check out this new poster I got" Tony called from his bedroom

"Another surfing one?" Jay asked rolling his eyes

"Nah a girl" Jay jumped off the seat right when he heard the word girl

"Aren't you going to go?" Kathy asked Stacy

"I could really careless if the girl was half naked" he replied

"Oh" there was an awkward silence "So how's the skating going?" Kathy asked

"It's going good" he nodded

"That's good" more awkward silence

"Kathy" Stacy spoke up

"Yea?"

"I like you" he said and his face reddened immediately

"I like you too" she said smiling

"Ok good" he said relief evident in his voice

"So" Kathy looked at Stacy "Now what?" he answered her by leaning over and giving her a quick kiss on the lips. Now Kathy's face was also red, she was about to kiss him again but Jay and Tony started to come out of the room.
