The next afternoon Bradin was so excited about meeting Rosie that he got up and didn't even eat before he went out to the beach. He went surfing because he was early and she wasn't there yet. She walked up the beach and didn't seem him where they agreed to meet but out of the corner of her eye she saw someone surfing and she was able to see that it was him so she sat down facing the water waiting for him to come back in. "Hey when did you get here?" He asked her when he came back in and saw her sitting there.

"Just a few minutes ago." She said squinting as she looked up at him.

"Oh, so did your parents leave ok?"

"Yeah, their flight was delayed a half hour that's why I'm late."

"That's ok, so what do you want to do?" He asked her

"I don't know what do you want to do?"

"I don't know…I'm the new one here remember…what's there to do around here besides just laying on the beach?" She asked.

"Hey why don't we try skim boarding?" He asked her.

"I don't know what is it?"

"You have a board almost like a mini surf board only you through it down when the waves come in and you can do tricks on them…there pretty cool and easy to use."

"I don't know I guess." Even before she was done he jumped up pulled her up and took off in the direction of Jays shop. They arrived about five minutes later with Bradin slowing down because they were both out of breath from the sprint up the beach they just did.

"Hey…Ja…Jay…can we have two skim boards?" Bradin asked him trying to catch his breath.

"Sure you know where there at go get em." Jay replied looking at Rosie.

"Oh I'm sorry Jay this is Rosie and Rosie this is Jay a family friend that lives with us." Bradin said introducing the two.

"Hi its nice to meet you." Rosie said.

"Same here. Bradin hurry up I've got payin' customers waiting unlike you so get your boards and get out of here." Rosie looked over at Bradin who was grabbing two boards.

"Ok come on." He grabbed her hand and they ran out of the shop and down to the beach. Jay looked at them and shook his head 'They don't even know that they are both attracted to each other' When they got down to the water Bradin showed her how to do it. He started running and threw his board down as the waves brought the water in and flew up into the air and off the board doing a forward flip. She laughed when he came up with his hair all in front of his face. "Oh yeah…" he said to her as he came out of the water and she was laughing, and she nodded. He walked slowly at first and then picked up speed before he grabbed her hugging her getting her all wet.

"Ah…Bradin so not fair," she complained as she pulled away from him and huffed. He looked at her kinda shocked and then she started laughing and then he laughed too. When they stopped laughing a few seconds later he asked her,

"So are you going to try?"

"I guess…I don't really know how to do it though."

"Here let me help you…this is how you do it," He said grabbing her hand and showing her how she has to run to the water, when's the best moment to throw the board down, and how to land without hurting your self.

When she resurfaced from beneath the water she ran back to where he was standing and said. "That was awesome thank you for showing me." She said and gave him a hug. He was taken aback by the way she hugged him and when he regained his composure he hugged her back. She pulled away quickly and started running back towards the water again. He laughed and ran after her. This time she did a back flip. When she came back up from underneath of the water she was looking around but couldn't see Bradin anywhere. "Bradin were are you?" she yelled as she looked around. He popped up from underneath the water right next to her making her scream. She splashed water at him and said, "You scared the crap out of me don't ever do that again."

"I'm sorry I didn't know I was going to scare you this is just where I ended up after I went under." She eyed him suspiciously and then nodded.

"Ok, I'll believe you this time only though." She said making him laugh. She walked over to him put her hand on his shoulders and pushed him down to dunk him and he inhaled deeply letting her dunk him a few seconds later she let him come up and then he grabbed her and tried to dunk her… "No, come on Brae don't please…" She pleaded with him pouting.

"Oh you little sneak with the puppy dog face that's not fair I let you dunk me."

"So…" She said with a smile on her face. He relented and when she got free she splashed him.

"OH now I am so going to dunk you." He said trying to grab her but she started to try and run for the shore. She didn't get to far before he grabbed her and dunked her. He didn't hold her down or anything he let her come straight back up and she scowled at him crossing her arms. "Oh come on you know you're not mad at me." He made a fishy face to try and get her to make a reaction and he succeed because she laughed. She pushed his shoulder and said,

"You're a dork."

"I know."

"I'm going to get out now because I'm cold."

"Do you want to get something to eat?"

"Sure but can we stop by my apartment first I just want to change."

"Sure, you want to go now?"

"Let me dry off a little bit so I can put my clothes back on over my bathing suit." He nodded and she made her way back to shore and sat down on her beach towel. He played around with his skim board a few more times before finally getting out too and drying off. Ten minutes later she turned to him and said, "You ready?"

"Yeah let's go…let me just put these on deck." He said referring to the skim boards he grabbed them and walked up to the house while she pulled on her shorts and t-shirt and packed her bag back up. "You ready?" He said coming back down, she nodded and they started off to her apartment her leading him.

"So…do you know where you want to go eat?"

"I don't know I'm new here…I can't eat fish though so anywhere else you want to we can go." She told him.

"Why are you allergic?"

"Yeah,"

"Oh," He said and they stayed in silence for the next couple of minutes.

"So, did you decide where we're going?"

"Your very impatient you know that?" He asked her.

"That's what they tell me." He laughed and she grinned.

"I think I know someplace to take you," He said.

"Oh…oh…oh where…where?" she said giddy.

"Nope I'm not telling you…You'll have to wait…all I will say is that its not formal it's really laid back."

"Are we going to be ordering through a clowns mouth?" She asked with a straight face but was really just kidding.

"Oh, man you guessed it." He said seriously and then they both started laughing. "Ok so I want to take you to Jack in the box…it does have this "clown" like guy but we're not going to be doing any ordering from his mouth."

"Just thought I'd check." She said with a half smile… "Ok this is my place," She said as they walked up the cement steps to go around the front of the high-rise apartment building.

"Crap this is where you live?" He asked as they walked up to the front door and the doorman, who looked to be a guy about their age, held the door open.

"Don't get your undies in a bunch…my parents have money and they wanted to make sure that I would have everything I ever wanted…even if I didn't want it." She said and then as they walked past the doorman she said, "Hi Grey,"

"Hi Rosie and…" he paused looking at Bradin.

"Bradin," Rosie said.

"Bradin," He said back as he kinda stared him down. Rosie then turned back to the door and they walked in to the lobby.

"Wow…can you say jealous?" Bradin asked her, when they were out of hearing range from Grey.

"Look at you…can you say jealous much?" Rosie joked as they continued walking. He just shook his head and said,

"I'm not jealous, he looked like he was going to attack me."

"Grey is harmless," Rosie said as they got on the elevator to up to her place. Rosie stood with her back to the back wall of the elevator leaning up against it and he stood on the right side of the elevator leaning up against it. She looked over at him and he looked up from the floor and they both laughed.

"Wow how long does it take to get to your place we've been riding for over two minutes now." He said anxiously.

"Well I am a few floors up…we're currently on the 10 floor so we have a couple more to go so not long."

"But there's only like 5 more left,"

"Your very observant." She said with a little smile playing at her lips.

"Oh, yeah?" He asked as he pushed himself up from his side of the wall and made his way over to her. She really didn't have anywhere to move, or to try to go anywhere. She moved to the other wall but he moved after her, with a small smile on his face. He trapped her against the wall with an arm on either side of her. She looked up at him and bit her lip and looked up at him, while he looked back down at her. The door's opened to her floor and she put a hand on his chest pushing him back slightly. He moved back and she walked ahead of him leading him right into her apartment. "Wait a second this whole thing is yours?" He asked her looking around in awe. She put a finger up to her chin and pretended like she was thinking and then said,

"It's really not that big…I have three bedrooms because in case family comes over they'll have a place to stay and things like that… you know a just in case thingy…plus they wanted to make sure I was going to be comfortable and be in a good neighborhood. Also my Aunt and Uncle own the building even though they don't live here so I'm staying here for free as long as I pay the utilities which my parents take care of for me." He nodded after she finished explaining it to him. "Well you can shower in the guest bathroom, I'm going to shower in my bathroom, then when we're done we can go out to eat ok?" He nodded and they headed to their perspective bathrooms.
