It was the day after the last leg of the race, and everyone was sitting back and relaxing. It had basically been non-stop racing for a while so no one was going to complain about the break. Even if Richard was noticeably just doing this break to check out Margaret.
Furthest from the water sat Bea, who was sitting in a wicker chair. She was in a black and white one-piece bathing suit that mostly only showed off her legs. But that was more than enough for the big simp.
"She's so wonderful" Rodney commented as he looked at her like a lost puppy.
Danny and Freddy were slowly walking past the large simp in their swim trunks and surfboards. They stopped when they heard Rodney talking to himself.
"Oh, did you see a pretty lady walking to the beach?" Danny asked with a small smirk.
Freddy smirked slightly "It must have been that Dawn girl, she looked really good in her swimsuit"
Rodney shook his head "oh, no way. My eyes are focused on my one and only…" Rodney smiled softly as he went back to staring at Bea.
Freddy and Danny looked at each other before Danny cleared his throat "uh, Rodney, are you sure you're focusing on the right girl?"
He just ignored them as he kept staring with a small smile. The duo didn't know what they should do.
"Let him have his fun" behind them they could see Arnold slowly putting some salad on his plate from the food bar "some people just like their other half older. I don't see it but some people like it. It's better than him falling for her partner"
Danny and Freddy looked to the beach to see Sophie in a little frilly one-piece with pink straps and pink flowers all over the blue main part.
"Yea, ok, fair" Freddy nods "that's way better than who he could crush on. But it's not really our problem anyways" Freddy turned to smirk at his partner "race you to the water?"
Danny smirked back "oh you're on!" Danny started sprinting towards the water while raising his surfboard up.
Arnold rolled his eyes at the two as he reached across the table to try grabbing a small cookie when Guy body-slammed him out of the way "nice try but these are mine!"
Arnold groaned in annoyance as he slowly stood back up "yea, fine. I don't need that stupid bar food anyways." he turned towards Rodney again before walking past him with what was left of his salad that didn't fall in the sand "you know it's creepy to just stare bud, right?"
Rodney blushed faintly "I know… I just didn't want to interrupt her. I can be a little awkward"
Arnold looked at him before smirking slightly "well, if you don't make a move on her I'm sure plenty of other guys would be more than happy to"
Rodney jolted slightly "w-what do you mean?"
"Well, you've seen how that Joe guy has checked her out before" Arnold mused.
Down the beach, they could see Joe relaxing back while flirting with some waitress. "He's also much closer to her age range. If you're not careful he might just sweep her from under you"
Rodney jumped to his feet looking around frantically "I need to grab her some flowers, o-or some chocolates, or something!" He started frantically running around to find anything romantic he could give her.
"Idiot" Arnold murmured as he started walking away while munching on some salad.
Closer to the others, Shiro was taking a nap, lowering his head down as he was raised into the air and then plopped down into the sand. He continued to snore as three of the contestants started covering him up to his neck in sand.
"S-so why are we doing this again?" Ninja asked, she was only wearing a pretty blue bikini. However, she still seemed to be wearing her scarf for some reason.
Sophie shrugged as she pulled out a book "it says in here that it's some of the fun you can have at the beach"
On the second page, it had kids burying someone in the sand. "I see…" Ninja nods slowly "what else can we do then?"
Sophie skimmed the rest of the book "ah, it says right here we could try a sandcastle"
Desmond, who was dressed in black swim trunks with a red stripe on each side frowned "we already kinda did that though" however he kept his smile "but I wouldn't mind doing that again! Doing that with new friends could be better"
Sophie nods "right…" she looked towards the side to see Richard checking out Margaret "do the locals have any scuba gear?"
Richard looked at her funny "scuba gear? Are you sure you're old enough to try that?"
Sophie just continued to look up at him with puppy-dog eyes until Richard groaned loudly "oh fine! But you need to take at least three people who can count as guardians so it's not my fault if you don't swim back up"
Sophie nodded quickly before looking back at Desmond and Ninja. She frowned slightly "I only really have two" she looked back at Richard.
"No dice then" he shrugged.
Sophie frowned sadly, trudging back to the group before noticing Desmond holding onto a Ben who was being dragged along the ground.
"Wha- how'd you get him so fast?" Sophie asked.
"Ben and I are never more than a few feet away" he grinned.
Sophie turned back to Richard, who was long gone, but next to the coast was a local already ready with the stuff they would need. Sophie smiled slightly as she started quietly walking towards it. She glanced back to make sure her grandma wasn't going to be upset.
When she looked back she saw Rodney on his knee while raising a flower up to her. The scoutmaster was too confused and distracted by him to stop her even if she wanted to.
"Well let's go then" she smiled as she started walking. Behind her came Ninja, Desmond, and a dragged-by Ben who just looked like he didn't want to even be there as they got on the boat.
Not far from them Maria and Margaret were both relaxing on blue beach lounge chairs. Margaret was wearing a pure black bikini and keeping her iconic hat on. Maria was wearing a red and white striped bikini, some black sunglasses, and a straw hat.
Margaret had a nice cold drink in her hands as she leaned back and smiled for the first time in the whole race. Even Maria looked less nervous than she usually was.
"Are you cool enough?" Adam asked with a smile as he was repeatedly fanning Maria in his black swim trunks.
Maria blushed faintly as she turned towards him "y-yea thanks" she smiled bashfully at him "I'm just fine"
Adam smiled before dropping the leaf to lie down next to her in the sand "tell me if you need me to do something. Or if you want to go swimming"
Maria blushed faintly as she nodded "t-thanks for the company"
Adam just smiled and nodded his head "yea, no problem. I'd have to be an idiot to not want to stick around and compliment you when you look that good"
Maria's face turned a brighter red as she cleared her throat "r-right. Got it"
On the other side of their 'flirty' situation, Margaret was just tuning them out while trying to enjoy the relaxation time. She was so relaxed she couldn't even hear someone slowly move closer and relax next to her in their beach lounge chair.
"Gotta admit you were looking better in that swimsuit than I hoped" The host of the show Richard smirked, just wearing green swim trunks.
Margaret slowly opened her eyes to glare at him "what do you want?"
"Just thought I should get comfy with the hottest unoccupied chick on the beach" Richard smirked.
"Wow, you know how to talk to women don't you?" The mafia don deadpanned.
Richard shrugged "don't have to be that hard on me, I like a girl who's feisty and all, and looking at you you mark every box"
Margaret just continued to glare at him, in the background, a man with a sniper rifle stuck his head out of a tree line in the jungle. Margaret looked back at him, really really contemplating what she should tell them before gesturing for him to step down.
"Don't touch me or bug me and this will end just fine" she put some shades on her face before going back to relaxing.
Richard smirked "as long as you don't mind some oggling no problem"
Margaret just quietly grumbled to herself as she just tried harder to focus on anything but him.
Joshua and Tamera were both resting not far from there on beach blankets. Tamera had been working on her tan, but since she forced Bonnie to go swimming she found the time to finally relax and just fall asleep.
Tamera was wearing a skimpy black bikini with a golden ring in the middle of the top, holding the two sides together, and two gold rings on the sides of the bottom. Joshua was similarly relaxing in the sun as he used his baseball cap to cover his eyes. Besides that, the quiet boy was just wearing simple red swim trunks.
"Thank god that little goblin can distract herself with the ocean. If she kept bugging me after that last challenge I was going to waterboard her" the vixen sighed in satisfaction.
Joshua frowned slightly at her, trying to think of what he was supposed to say "am I supposed to s-s-support Bonnie because she is proud of her sexuality, or am I supposed to b-be upset that she feels the need to sexualize herself…" he frowned to himself. Without Hannah, he wasn't sure what he was supposed to be upset about.
Tamera rolled her eyes "you're such a male wife"
Joshua frowned slightly "w-what do you mean by that?"
The HBIC rolled her eyes "Male wife, it's what you are. You're a total bottom who just does whatever his girlfriend wants. That and how scrawny you are, you are about the least appealing guy I've ever met. And I've seen at least one homeless guy"
Joshua frowned slightly "H-H-Hannah likes me how I am though"
Tamera side-eyed him "are you seriously that into her? I mean, I'd rather go on a date with Bonnie than have to even kiss that whale's hand"
Joshua frowned at her, but before he could make a comment he heard someone walk up behind him. He turned around to see Hannah in her bathing suit as he smiled softly.
Hannah was wearing a pastel purple swimming shirt and black swimming shorts. However, that didn't seem to upset Joshua at all "h-h-hey Hannah. What was I s-s-supposed to think of Bonnie again?"
"What? All you need to think about her is knowing that she has a different lifestyle and you can't judge her for that" she spoke sternly towards him.
Joshua nods meekly "r-right. I'm happy you could remind me"
Tamera groaned and rolled her eyes "what a sub"
Joshua frowned, and was about to say something when Hannah grabbed his shoulders and started shaking him "y-y-yes dear?" he quickly turned back around.
She pointed at the beach, where Dawn and Jaime were both helping some small animals and fish get back into the water. Dawn was wearing a full pink bathing suit while Jaime just had green trunks.
"We need to go help those two" Hannah decided.
"B-b-but isn't this our break?" Joshua frowned slightly.
Hannah frowned at him hard enough to create a hole in his forehead "do you not care about nature? Our parents ruined the planet and you really just want to let it stay like this?"
"What do our parents h-h-have to do with Dawn and Jaime helping fish and stopping birds from eating crabs?" Hannah just continued to stare judgmentally at him. "R-r-right I'm sorry. I agree, we need to do everything we can to help" he waited for her to respond, sighing in relief when she gave him a nod of approval.
Joshua sighed in relief as he got up, extending his hand down to Hannah to help her up, only for her to ignore him and get up on her own. Hannah started walking over to the water, shoving Jaime aside to
Further in the water, Anne and Hope were slowly bobbing up and down. Hope was wearing a pink bikini top and a grey bikini bottom, however with how well developed she was, almost all the people on the beach were looking at her bikini top.
Anne meanwhile was wearing a two-piece bathing suit with bright rainbow colors on them. She still had some bruises on her face from all the bites. However now she was under the water, keeping her eyes held shut as she tried showing Hope how long she can hold her breath.
Under the water, however, she felt something swimming around them. She opened her eyes slightly, seeing something swimming under them. However, she didn't have the time to focus on what that was as she came out of the water "my eyes!" The class clown screamed in pain.
Hope frowned "I-I warned you to not open your eyes… but I wouldn't listen to trash like me either…."
Anne frowned at her before snapping her fingers "wait, right, we seriously need to get out of here"
"W-why?" She looked a little nervous "I-I-I swear I didn't pee in the water. That would be disgusting and-"
Anne shook her head "no, not that. There was something swimming under us!"
Hope tilted her head "w-well yea, it's the ocean. Fish would naturally swim towards something that looks as dead as me. Easy meal"
Anne frowned more before just grabbing her by the arm and trying to move out of the water. However, as she started trudging away a shark fin came out of the water and started swimming around them.
Anne's eyes widened in fear as she latched onto Hope out of fear, making the short girl smile softly "don't worry Anne, even a shark would get sick biting into me…"
Under the shark fin, they can hear someone sound like they were trying to talk through the water. "What?" Anne asked with a puzzled expression.
From the water popped out Bonnie, who was wearing a very concealing purple swimsuit with long sleeves and long swimsuit leg. "I SAID, a shark might but I would love a bite!" The creepy ginger then lunged towards the two, laughing maniacally as she snatched Hope's top away.
"Ah, there we go, much better right?" Bonnie grinned with a perverted gleam, while staring towards the short girl "now that I think about it, we should totally just turn this into a naked beach!"
It took Hope a few moments, before realizing what had happened. For once she had a whole new emotion plastered all over her face, embarrassment as she quickly moved her hands to cover her chest. She was so embarrassed she couldn't even bring herself to look over at Anne, who was blushing almost as much as her.
"That's not funny Bon-Bon. And trust me I have experience not being funny to people. Give that back" Anne reached forward, expecting Bonnie to hand it back.
The ginger sighed "fine" she moved to hand it over to her, letting Anne take it and awkwardly hand it over to Hope while looking away
"I guess only pirates will be able to watch the show after this. It's definitely going to be rated Arrrr…" she chuckled softly. Anne didn't look over at her but smiled softly hearing Hope giggle at the joke.
"Thanks for making t-this less awkward Anne. I don't know why she did that anyways" Hope murmured.
"Yea, why did you take her bikini top?" Anne angrily asked the ginger, however, the girl was long gone "where did she go?" the class clown frowned.
Hope looked around with her, having her top on before looking towards the beach "I see her"
"Oh, where?" Anne followed her line of sight. She could see that at the beach, Tamera was lying on her stomach to tan her back.
While she was resting and relaxing Bonnie was sneaking around, pouring some suntan lotion on her hands before rubbing them together.
"I heard of Bunnies in heat but a Bonnie in heat is much worse" she murmured as they both heard Tamera yell at the ginger offscreen. She looked over at Hope who shrugged.
"Was an ok play on words" Hope smiled softly at her before tapping her fingers "now that I think about it, I don't think I put any suntan lotion on"
Anne smirked at her "do you want her to put it on them?"
Hope looked back over at the Last Resorts and grimaced "m-maybe you could?"
Anne smiled "sure! Shouldn't be too hard, barely any of you to put it on" The class clown teased before she started swimming to the shore.
Hope chuckled softly, blushing faintly as she slowly started trying to catch up to her.
While Hope was 'flirting', Makenna and Cord were getting their rock gear ready, along with their instruments. They were both standing on a wooden stand, with Makenna looking much more excited than her partner. Makenna was wearing a purple bikini, while Cord was wearing a lime green bikini with lemons on it.
"What are you two doing?" Monstro asked while slowly coming closer. He was just wearing a black speedo, which obviously made some locals uncomfortable.
"Oh, we're just getting our performance ready for the evening" Makenna smiled at the giant.
"We wanted to try performing to a new audience while we're taking a break" Cord explained.
"oh! I could be a roadie!" Monstro smiled excitedly "I'm really strong, I can carry your mics and the loudspeakers!"
"well, you can if you want" Makenna smiled.
Cord just shrugged "no harm done if you want to"
Monstro just smiled wider "will do!" He saluted before jumping up and running to grab their needed supplies.
"think he'll destroy anything?" Cord nonchalantly asked.
"absolutely" Makenna grinned.
Not far from them, Aisling was walking away from the coast with Kylie and Laurie just silently following her. Aisling was wearing a green one-piece bathing suit while Kylie was just in a dark blue two-piece. Laurie hadn't changed into her swimsuit since their break had started
"So why are we following this chick again?" Kylie quietly asked her partner.
Laurie shrugged slightly "she said she wanted to try predicting o-our futures"
"And we believe this because…." Kylie motioned for Laurie to answer.
Laurie just shrugged again "I-I thought it c-could be fun… a-a-after we almost went home yesterday I thought we could use something fun"
Kylie frowned but didn't say anything as the group walked towards the jungles. They soon reached a small clearing where the strange woman would sit on a rock.
"So… how are we doing this?" Kylie asked as she took a seat down on the dirty ground "I wanted to go kick some sand in Guy's face"
Aisling held a few cards in her hand, filing a few cards in her hands "all I need from you two is to take one. I repeat, one card from this deck"
Kylie groaned softly before taking one of the cards. She looked down to it to see a reversed king of cups "well, what does this mean?" She showed it to Aisling.
The woman giggles softly "oh, that does sound so much like you"
Kylie started getting angrier "don't just ask me to come around here just to play coy like that!" Kylie growled "just let it out"
She waved her hand "oh relax it's nothing serious. It's just saying that you are volatile and emotionally manipulative"
The 'kill-joy' frowned, she was about to say something before she shrugged "ok, yeah, I guess I can say that's close enough"
Aisling just smirked "The cards are always right" she crossed her arms before turning to the martial artist "Laurie? What did you find?"
Laurie awkwardly raised hers, however before the camera could focus on it Aisling snatched the card from her hands. "Oh, I see" Aisling murmured nervously before slowly sneaking around the two girls.
"I-is that ba-" Laurie spoke up before Aisling just made a mad dash out of the jungle. The meek girl started looking more nervous.
Kylie saw her nervousness and pat her back "Ah ignore her, that girl is a total nutjob. Like half of the people still in this race"
Laurie still looked worried "b-b-but yours was r-right, right?"
Kylie shrugged "yea, but people know how I am. If she can see, she'll know what I'm like" she smirked a bit "now, I know exactly how we can turn that frown upside down"
Laurie perked up "i-ice cream?"
Kylie smirked and shook her head "I'm taking you out to race a few laps in the water. If you win, then we can get ice cream. If I win, don't be surprised if I take your ice cream and eat it too"
Laurie whimpered slightly, obviously just looking more upset by that.
Kylie sighed "ok, we'll go to the food bar and you can watch me, wallop Guy and Blake. Is that ok?"
Laurie smiled a little "ok… that c-c-could be a little m-more fun"
Kylie smirked, putting her arm over her partner's shoulder "good. Maybe I can also scare an answer out of Aisling later"
Laurie giggled softly "d-don't go too far"
"Yea, no promises" The two slowly started walking back to the open beaches.
AN: yea, honestly, this whole minisode was just me wanting to write interactions and have fun with it. The next chapter shouldn't be too long from now, just consider this a little treat lol.
