It was the next day and everyone finished training. Aarch told them they were free to go out.
'Hey dudes. Let's go to the beach again. We show them how to play volleyball.' Shark grinned as King, Hawk, Axel and Lioness replicated his grin.
'I'm down with that.' King said and Hawk nodded.
'Guys. You are really confident in beating us?' D'Jok asked and the alpha teens nodded.
'Volleyball is really our game.' Lioness said and high fived King and Hawk.
'Okay, you're on.' Tia said and Mei, Rocket, D'Jok and Micro Ice stepped up.
'What did I missed?' Ahito asked still in a bandage.
'Looks like these guys want to lose in a game of volleyball little bro.' Thran told him.
'Really? Us losing?' Axel said. Madison walked in and Axel gave her kiss.
'You want to come with? We are playing volleyball.' Axel asked her. Madison shook her head.
'I said I would meet a friend at the mall. Beat those guys though.' Madison said and gave him a kiss on the lips.
'So let's get this match underway kids' Mark said and everyone go there swimwear and headed for the beach. The boys were getting change in the room when Micro Ice asked a question.
'Dudes, did anyone bring the tanning lotion?' Hawk threw the bottle to Micro Ice and he started applying it to himself. Mark sat next to D'Jok and whispered to him.
'So how was it at the shoot? Really' Mark asked him and D'Jok got up and spoke to him outside.
'Okay. You can't say a word to anyone.' D'Jok said and Mark nodded. D'Jok told him what happened that day and Mark was left speechless.
'Say something.' D'Jok said and waited for his friend to form word.
'Just take it slow. I think she might like you but doesn't want to rush anything.' Mark told him and gave him a smile.
'Okay.' D'Jok said and the rest of the guys ran out of the training room.
'Ready to get your butt whopped?' King said as the two teams started to split themselves.
'Ha please.' Tia said as she emerged from her the dressing room followed by Yuki and Mei in there bikinis.
'Wow.' Rocket said as he saw the ladies.
'Okay. Let's get this game on.' Mark said as everyone ran out,
'Guys. I will wait for Lioness.' D'Jok shouted and everyone nodded at him.
'Li. You ready?' D'Jok said and Lioness came out with her green bikini and surfer shorts on. D'Jok's eyes widen as he had a flash back to the shoot scene.
'Thanks for waiting.' Lioness said as he nodded no problem.
'Ready to lose?' D'Jok asked her.
'Wow. Strong words redhead.' Lioness said and D'Jok held her hand. Lioness bit her lip and he led her to the pitch.
'C'mon Li.' Axel said and watched her take of her shorts. King saw his eyes wonder and lightly taped his shoulder.
'Focus bro.' King told him and Axel gave a sheepish smile.
'Vamos.' Lioness said as Shark served.
As the teams were returning each other's play, a crowd started to string watching them.
'Axe-man heads up.' Hawk said as lined the ball for him. Axel looked and saw D'Jok ready to block his shot. He looked over at Lioness who nodded. She jumped up and took Axel's shot and hit it away from D'Jok for their point. The crowd cheered as they saw the point and clapped.
'What was that about losing?' Lioness said to D'Jok who said nothing and laughed with Lioness.
'Can't lie you guys are really good.' D'Jok said and Tia, Rocket, Mei and Micro Ice nodded in the background.
'Yeah but we will get you.' Mark said with Yuki and Thran nodding behind.
'Ahito would have been good too.' Thran said.
'Guys amazing match.' A voice said and everyone turned to notice Jordan.
'Hey Jordy.' Mark said and everyone said hi to him.
'I met everyone last time apart from you.' Jordan said to Lioness.
'Hey. Everyone calls me Lioness.' She said and went to shake his hand but he kissed her hand.
'Oh what a gentlemen.' D'Jok said and looked at Lioness.
'Wow. I knew you were gorgeous but this is on a whole other level. I must say you are an exceptional footballer.' Jordan told her and gave her a smile.
'Wow thank you. I watched your game and it's good. On and off the field…' Lioness said to him.
'Wow. What a line.' Mark said and looked at D'Jok who was still observing.
'Girl. You are going to make me blush.' Jordan said and everyone started laughing.
'That's not the only thing I can do.' Lioness said and looked Jordan up and down.
'Damn.' King said as he held his head.
'What else can you do?' Jordan said and looked her.
'Private session.' Lioness said.
'Rah. Okay then.' Jordan said and bit his lower lip.
'I never knew Lioness was a flirt.' Axel said while Shark and Hawk's mouth were open.
'Romeo where is your girlfriend?' D'Jok said and Jordan started laughing with Lioness soon joining in. The rest of the team were bewildered at the two laughing.
'So where is your girl?' Lioness said to him and he pointed her out. The blonde girl came jogging and looked at Lioness She stood face to face Jordan's girlfriend. The two of them gave a little scream and hugged each other.
'Lauren it's been so long!' Lioness said and Lauren jumped with her.
'Li! I know. I can't believe you are here! We actually need to catch up, eat and just have a girls night sleepover!' Lauren said.
'You know each other?' Mark said and the two girls nodded.
'I transferred after you left and tried out for the cheerleading team. Lioness said yes. Some salty girls were against it but Lioness stuck to her guns.' Lauren said and gave the Brazilian a high five.
'I knew that these two were dating a long time ago. I just never had the chance to meet the lovely boy.' Lioness said and gave him a hug.
'Yeah. I found out after I saw you guys at the beach that Lioness and my girl are tight. I had to make sure that they see each other. Plus… I'm a fan.' Jordan said and everyone laughed.
'So how flirty is my boyfriend?' Lauren asked Lioness.
'Very. Easy to feed off from.' Lioness replied.
'Thank Ms Leone.' Jordan said to her in a posh accent.
'O he's even better in the bedroom. I'm actually going to let you two have sex.' Lauren said to her. Lioness' eyes widen as everyone laughed.
'We can share a lot of things but not that Lauren. Not that.' Lioness said and turned to the team who were still laughing.
'So you say. Don't worry Li we can share this one. So when can we have a slumber party?' Lauren asked her.
'You are actually something else and to answer you slumber party question… I will need to ask the coach. Hey maybe we can mix it up. Tia, Mei and Yuki would you like to attend?' Lioness asked.
'Sure. The three girls said together.
'Oh my gosh. Great! I will bring some other familiar faces too. This is going to be amazing! Should we bring Rio slumber party over here?' Lauren said and Mark spat out his water.
'Jesus Avoid the police and paparazzi' Mark said and Lioness pointed at his good statement.
'Good point. So we will tone that down,' Lauren said and Mark gave him high five.
'I'm sorry guys. Can I just steal her and I promise I will bring her back' Lauren said and held Lioness close to her chest.
'You can borrow her. That's all on Lioness though' Axel said and gave the two girls a smile.
'Thank you. Li to the shake smoothie bar!' Lauren said as she dragged Lioness away from the group.
'Let me at least get my shorts.' Lioness said as she was being dragged away.
'No way. Your ass is getting us free smoothies' Lauren said and the guys laughed as Lioness was being dragged.
'Honestly Lauren is hilarious.' Tia said to Jordan.
'I know. That's why I'm forever chilled.' Jordan said to the group.
'Yo Axe-man. Help me out with the cooler.' King said and Axel looked at King as he knew that King could easily lift that cooler with one arm.
'Okay.' Axel said and followed King to the car. King checked to see the coast was clear and spoke to Axel.
'Why were you staring at Lioness' butt?' King said and Axel blushed a little bit.
'My eyes just wondered. It wasn't intentional.' Axel said to his friend.
'Right. Your eyes wondered for a long period on her butt before, during and after the game.' King said to him.
'No it didn't.' Axel said to him.
'Yes it did.' Hawk said and Shark came from around the corner.
'You see.' King said as the three guys surrounded Axel.
'Dude. Imagine if Madison was here?' Shark said to him.
'Yeah. Catching your boyfriend stare at another attractive woman's ass and the two actually live together.' Hawk said and Axel nodded at the guys comments.
'Good point. It just happened. I just saw her butt and my eyes just got fixated. Has that never happened to you guys?' Axel said. Shark, Hawk and King looked at each other and admitted.
'Lioness does have a nice butt.' Hawk said and Shark nodded.
'Great shape.' Shark said.
'I can't say that because I view her as my little sister.' King said and gave the guys a shrug of his shoulders.
'Thanks for the reality check though guys.' Axel said as King grabbed the cooler with one arm.
'No problem.' King replied and carried the cooler back.
'Yeah dude. We got your back.' Shark said and Hawk nodded alongside him.
'Hey Axel!' A voice shouted. Axel looked back to see Madison running towards him.
'Madi. I thought you were at the mall?' Axel questioned her.
'I did but I really wanted to get some sun and heard about the volleyball game.' Madison said and gave a smile.
'Unfortunately you missed the game.' Shark said who looked at Hawk.
'Yeah. It was a good game. Some head turning points. Right Axel?' Hawk teased him.
'Yeah.' Axel replied. As Madison hugged Axel stuck his middle finger to Hawk. Shark went away and laughed while he caught up to King.
'C'mon. Let's get you a drink.' Axel said and held her hand as he led her to the group.
*Lioness and Lauren*
'So I saw you playing! You were amazing but haven't used your keshin. Why?' Lauren asked her while taking a sip of her drink.
'I don't know. Maybe a bit of stage fright.' Lioness replied to her and gave a sigh.
'So apart from the footballing side… you dating anyone?' Lauren asked as she gave a smile smirk.
'No.' Lioness said as she looked at someone.
'How about liking someone… D'Jok' Lauren said and watched Lioness' face burn up to a crimson shade.
'Is it that obvious?' Lioness asked held her head in her hand.
'Not if I didn't know the things you do when you find a guy attractive and are in to him but I know you so yeah. It is.' Lauren said and giggled as Lioness trying to cool herself.
'I messed up Lauren.' Lioness said as she looked at her friend.
'C'mon spill.' Lauren said and Lioness told her what happened in Portuguese.
'Wow. Why did you do that?' Lauren asked her.
'I don't know! I actually want to try and see if something can happen.' Lioness said.
'Then you better do. C'mon Li. Jordan keeps telling me that he is a good guy. You know he is a good guy. Forget about everyone else for a minute and focus on getting your man.' Lauren said and shook Lioness sturdily.
'Wow. That was a great pep talk.' Lioness said to her.
'I learnt from one of the best head cheerleaders.' Lauren said and gave her a wink.
'Oo nice buttering up.' Lioness said and laughed with Lauren. She looked and saw Axel and Madison heading to the group.
'Oh Madison is her. Let me introduce you to her.' Lioness said as she pointed her out to Lauren who notice her with Axel.
'He's cute. I'm surprised that you didn't fancy him.' Lauren said as she got up but saw Lioness face turn crimson again.
'OMG. Spill.' Lauren said and sat down as Lioness explain the situation of her and Axel.
'Li. You see! Don't allow someone to take your man again. You actually need to tell him or else I will.' Lauren said and Lioness and nodded.
'I will. Trust me. Especially with that threat.' Lioness said and picked her smoothie and dragged Lauren to the group.
'Hey Madison. This is one of my best friend's Lauren.' Lioness said as Lauren looked at Madison up and down.
'Nice to meet you.' Madison said and Lauren smiled and gave her a handshake.
'Same.' Lauren replied and looked at Lioness. Lioness saw this she gave Lauren a look. Lauren responded with another look.
'Everything alright?' Axel said as he noticed the exchanging looks. Lioness and Lauren both quickly said yeah and gave a giggle.
'D'Jok can I talk to you for a second?' Lioness said and D'Jok gave a nodded and followed her.
'What's up?' D'Jok asked her.
'At the studio. I…' Lioness said and stopped talking.
'You what?' D'Jok said and Lioness put her hand up to tell him to stop talking. She picked up the bottled water off the floor and threw it behind the shack.
'Ouch.' A voice said and Lioness made her way round the back of the shack.
'Hawk.' Lioness said angrily and the red head bolted away from the Brazilian. D'Jok placed his hand on her shoulder and looked at her.
'Do you want to continue this conversation at home away from the nosey people?' D'Jok asked her and she nodded her head. At that the two began to walk back to the group.
'So Lioness I need to quickly show you something.' Lauren said and grabbed the Brazilian's shorts and threw it at her. Lioness caught it and was dragged quickly away.
'Hey!' D'Jok shouted and caught up to the pair.
'Take your phone. Just in case we decide to change to a different part of the beach.' D'Jok said and handed her mobile to her. Lioness nodded and was dragged by Lauren away from the group.
'So how did it go?' Lauren asked her.
'I was about to tell him but Hawk was being nosey.' Lioness said frustrated. Lauren sighed.
'He asked if we could continue the conversation at home.' Lioness said and Lauren screamed.
'Lioness you have a second chance. Well actually third because you blew it yesterday and the second was down to Hawk.-'Lauren said but was cut off by Lioness.
'I get it Lauren.' Lioness said and gave her friend a hug. The two went back to the group and everyone was talking. Soon the two groups went back home. The team finally made it back home and entered their rooms.
D'Jok came out of the shower and got dressed. He was making his way to the living room when he passed Lioness' room. He was about to knock on the door when Lioness opened the door and the two took a step back.
'Hey. I was just about to look for you.' Lioness said and folded her arms.
'I was making my way downstairs. Then I remembered our conversation that was interrupted.' D'Jok said and pointed at Hawk's door.
'Yeah. Come in.' Lioness said and D'Jok followed her into her room and sat down on her bed.
'So what's up?' D'Jok he said admiring her room.
'About what I said at the end of the shoot…' Lioness said and stop speaking.
'What?' D'Jok said and looked her face.
'I…' Lioness said and tried to force words to come out.
'What?' D'Jok said and held hand.
'Nothing.' Lioness said and removed her hand away from him.
'Seriously? Nothing.' D'Jok said and giggled a little bit.
'What's so funny with that?' Lioness said a little irritated by D'Jok's laughing.
'Nothing. Nothing at all. So you were struggling to say nothing to me?' D'Jok said and got up from her bed.
'Hey! I may not be good at saying how much I like you but don't laugh at it redhead.' Lioness shouted at him.
'What?' D'Jok said and walked towards her. She blushed realising that's she confessed her like for him.
'I said what I said.' Lioness said still blushing.
'I don't think I heard you correctly.' D'Jok said and held her hand.
'I like you.' Lioness said to him blushing harder and D'Jok kissed her full on the lips. He then broke the kissed and said.
'I like you too.' Lioness smiled and gave him a hug.
'So should we tell the guys?' Lioness said and looked at him. Both of them looked the situation at hand.
'Not yet.' They both said as the weighted up the pros and cons. D'Jok sat down on her and asked Lioness to take a seat.
'I want you to be comfortable with dating me. I don't want you to rush you.' D'Jok said and Lioness gave him a smile.
'Thanks. I am.' Lioness said and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
'I really do like you.' D'Jok said and gave her a kiss on her cheek. Lioness smiled at him. She took his hand and helped him up.
'You know someone else knows that I like you on this team.' Lioness said.
'Same. Actually two.' D'Jok said and Lioness looked at him.
'Two?' Lioness asked him.
'Micro Ice and Mark.' D'Jok said sheepishly.
'Mark knew?' Lioness said and D'Jok nodded his head.
'I told him not to say anything.' D'Jok said.
'He knew that I liked you.' Lioness said and looked at D'Jok with a sarcastic smile.
'Really? I had so many conversations with and he never mentioned the girl I like likes me.' D'Jok said and looked up in confusion.
'Well I guess we could tell him.' Lioness said and D'Jok nodded his head.
'I might tell Micro Ice too. He's my best friend and we've been so much together.' D'Jok explained and Lioness nodded her head.
'That's cool.' Lioness said and the two walked out of her room. They saw Mark and dragged him into Lioness room.
'Hey! What's gotten into you guys?' Mark said as he was thrown on the chair.
'You knew that we liked each other.' Lioness and D'Jok said at the same time.
'Yeah. Oh gosh you two told each other. Well done guys! I can't wait to tell everyone.' Mark said and was about to get up but the two pushed him down.
'No. We are thinking of just keeping it between us until we are ready to tell everyone else.' D'Jok said and looked at Lioness.
'So keep it a secret.' Lioness said and Mark nodded his head.
'Let's get something to eat. I am starving.' Mark said and the two nodded. Mark waited at the door and turned around.
'How did you two find out you liked each other?' Mark said with a smirk. The two looked at each other then back at Mark.
'This so has to do with the shoot.' Mark said and laughed as the two pushed him to get food.
'Ah come on guys.' Mark said whilst laughing as he saw the two leave him.
'Meet us when you're done.' Lioness shouted and made her way downstairs.
'Hey guys.' Mei said to the two.
'Hey.' They both said.
'I was wondering if I can steal Lioness for a moment.' Mei said to D'Jok. He nodded and left the two to talk.
'What's up?' Lioness asked her as she got a bottle of water from the kitchen.
'Sinead wants to see if he can join the snow kids.' Mei told her quickly and Lioness spat the water out from her mouth.
'What?' Lioness shouted and froze.
'Yeah. I know.' Mei said as she bit her nails.
'Well it would improve the team and put pressure on the attacking starting eleven.' Lioness said as she thought.
'However D'Jok and Sinead clash 2.0.' Mei said and the girls gave a sigh.
'Well. Let him make his move. If Aarch wants him. He will get him.' Lioness said and Mei nodded.
'You're right.' Mei said and helped Lioness clean the water up.
'It's funny. I am so worried about D'Jok like if I am still dating him. I don't even know why. I am dating Sinead.' Mei said.
'So? You two had a serious relationship. It's cute.' Lioness said and picked up her glass.
'He even told me he has a crush. Like I think he is really likes her.' Mei said and Lioness looked down to hide her smile. She quickly turned around to see Mei passing her a bowl.
'Oh and Lauren's sleepover… When will this happen?' Mei asked her.
'That's what I want to know.' Tia said with Yuki following behind.
'Yeah. She sounds like a right laugh.' Yuki added.
'Well. She said when we were sure we would be free. We played all our group games so I think Aarch will allow us to have a weekend sleepover.
'Cool.' The girls said and rushed to ask Aarch.
'Hey where you rushing too.' Axel said as he saw the four girls fly by.
'We are going to see if we can host a sleepover.' Tia said.
'Yeah. It will be so fun.' Mei added.
'In fact where is Madison?' Lioness asked Axel.
'She wanted to pick something up at the mall.' Axel said.
'Ah I will just text her.' Lioness said and pulled her phone out.
'So is this a girl's sleepover or a sleepover.' Axel asked and the girls giggled.
'Girls only.' Mei answered his question.
'Actually and gay boys too. Lauren did mention that if this sleepover does happen we are bring over some of our friends- which we have a lot of gay besties.' Lioness said.
'Girls and gays. In fact I can bring Paulo.' Tia said and Mei gave her a high five.
'Okay. I'm going to pitch a guy's sleepover.' Axel said and the girls laughed.
'That would be really cool actually.' Lioness added and Aarch walked passed the group.
'Coach!' They all shouted making Aarch jump. They both explained their ideas of a sleepover to him.
'Okay. That seems fine as long as you don't do anything illegal.' Aarch added and everyone gave him a big hug.
'Wait. We call having this place for our sleepover.' Yuki said and the rest of the girls agreed and cheered.
'What's happening?' King asked as the rest of the guys joined in. Axel explained the idea of the guy's sleepover which they all agreed to.
'Cool. We can do it at Jordan's place.' Mark added and sent him a text message.
'The dude is down for it.' Mark said as he red Jordan's reply.
'Awesome. We will bring the rest of the guys. I will get Warren.' D'Jok said and got his phone out.
'You hear that Li? Warren.' Mark teased her.
'Shut up!' Lioness shouted and attack Mark. Everyone laughed as the two play fighting. King pulled Lioness off Mark and held her.
'Take it easy Li. We are going to need him for our next match.' King joked.
'You lucky, lucky boy.' Lioness said to Mark as everyone laughed at the two.
'Li. Can you help me out with my car later?' Axel said and she nodded.
'Micro Ice street board later?' D'Jok said and Micro Ice gave a thumbs up.
'Let me quickly call Lauren.' Lioness said and put the phone to her ear. When she picked up Lioness made her way out of the room as she spoke to her and discussed other things.
'Cool. Looks like we are going to have a fun weekend dudes.' Shark said and everyone cheered.
'You know it.' King said and fisted bumped Shark.
