I am so, so, so sorry for the lack of updates on this story! Please forgive me (and review).
Read and review, guys!
Love Rhyleigh xoxox
"Anybody home?"
A voice was floating through the house, as the eight occupants hurried around to try and get ready on time. Training had run late, and the six teenagers were frantic about being late on their first day Bec.
"Angus!"
Garry nearly choked on his coffee. Bec pounded him on the back, as she moved around Loren and Adam- the two who were put on sandwich duty. Guy was wolfing down the remnants of his cereal, and Charley and Bridget were distributing snacks among the six lunchboxes on the bench, while Cassie tried to get together their pens and pencils.
"I can tell this isn't a good time", Angus chuckled dryly, surveying the scene that was taking place in the Solar Blue kitchen.
"No, it's just the kids are running a little late", Bec smirked as Guy hopped around the kitchen, trying to find his other shoe. As usual, it was pure and utter chaos.
"Heads up!" Adam announced, beginning to toss the water bottles out of the fridge. Garry ducked just in time, as Guy dived in to catch them- still wearing only the one shoe.
"Is it like this every morning?" Angus asked weakly.
"Actually, no", Bridget spoke up, an evil smile growing on her face. "Yesterday Adam tried to make pancakes".
"There's no need to go into details, Bridget Sanchez", Adam blushed.
"There are plenty of reasons to go into details, Adam Bridge", Guy teased back. "That image in permanently etched into my brain. I don't know how much therapy I'm gonna need-"
"Move on out!" Charley commanded, cutting Guy off.
"Bye Bec!"
"See ya Garry!"
"Have a good day!" Bec called, as the kids shoved themselves out the door.
"Be ready to train your butts off!" Garry added. Just the usual school morning send off for the heads of the Solar Blue boarding house.
"Welcome back, Charley", Angus greeted, just noticing the blonde surfer among the mess.
"Thanks, Angus!" Charley's reply was faint, as they thundered down the steps to the beach.
"Are they always like that?" Angus checked.
Garry took another sip of his coffee. "Almost always. Training ran late because I forgot school went back today, and their lunches weren't packed last night either because we all simply forgot- its chaos, Angus".
"Basically". Bec nodded, grinning. "Want a cup of coffee or something to eat? The kids have almost eaten us out of the house, but I'm sure we can find something".
If Edge had been there, he would have been laughing hysterically. When they were at Solar Blue, they were rostered to cook together, and their meals were pretty memorable. In the first week, they were given the instructions to cook sausages. Edge had told her that they would cook in half the time if they doubled the heat. Bec was always one for a challenge, so she suggested they try it.
"To make them snappable without actually causing a fire. That's quite a feat".
"Someone told me eating burnt stuff gives you cancer".
Those were the comments from their dear friends Heath Carroll and Perri Lawe. The other four had nothing to say- they just stared in horror. Another famous example was their spaghetti bolognese- without the spaghetti. That was in June- and the other kids had brought it up whenever spaghetti bolognese was on the menu.
"What's so funny?" Angus wanted to know.
"Just remembering the times I had in this kitchen when I was here". She blushed. "Sorry, lost in the past".
"Oh, you old cheese", Garry teased. "Coffee, Angus?"
"Thank you, Garry".
