I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.

Maryse's Point of View-

We all got comfortable in the car for the 2 hour drive ahead of us, it was harder after that long driver earlier this morning but it was only 2 more hours. Apparently that dance wore out Adora and Alex because they were fast asleep on each other's shoulders within the first half hour of the drive, it was pretty adorable and I heard Mike let out a deep breath as he drove the distance to our hotel. I woke them up in time to check into our hotel rooms, we dragged our stuff up to our rooms and crashed instantly, I didn't even feel like talking to Adora about Mike. I was woke up by my phone ringing, I grabbed it hearing Mike on the other end, I couldn't make out what he was saying because I was so tired. I got up waking my sister up getting into our swimsuits and grabbed a couple of towels to take with us to the beach. We met Alex and Mike in the lobby since they were on a different floor this time.

"How far is the beach?" Adora asked.

"You must have really been out of it last night because we are right across from it." Mike said.

"Are we?" Adora asked smiling from excitement.

"Yeah…" I said as we walked out the front doors seeing the beach across the street.

"This must have been more expensive." Adora said.

"Sort of….just a little further away from the arena." Mike said as we stepped onto the sand walking through it to the ocean. We found an empty spot where we all laid out our towels to use to lay on to tan if we wanted to.

"Alex, could you put some of the sun block on my back?" Adora asked as she picked up the block Mike had dropped on his towel and begun pulling her over shirt off to expose her two piece suit.

"If you do mine as well" Alex said as Adora handed him the bottle.

"I'll do it." Mike said snatching it from Alex squirting some in his hand rubbing it on my sisters back, Adora looked at me in disgust and I just burst into laughter at the look she gave me. "Now put your shirt back on…" Mike said after he finished putting the sun block on her back.

"No…" She mumbled as she sat on a towel staring at the waves that were crashing in and the people that were in the ocean doing numerous of things, anything from goofing off to surfing to boogie boarding to wake boarding to throwing Frisbees in for their dogs. Mike squirted more sun block in his hands walking towards Alex and he stopped him.

"Are you serious?" Alex asked.

"Yeah, you don't want to get sun burnt now do you?" Mike asked as Alex looked from Mike to me and I just shrugged my shoulders. Alex let out a breath turning around to let Mike rub the sun block in on Alex's back, I think his face was the best because it was more uncomfortable than disgust.

"Thanks." Alex said.

"Adora, I told you to cover up." Mike said.

"Then what was the point of putting block on and sun tanning if I am covered up?" Adora asked as she begun to stand up.

"There is a point behind it, so you won't get burnt and get skin cancer."

"I'll take the risk…." Adora said as Mike picked up one of the towels trying to cover her up but she rejected it which led to Mike chasing her around the beach, they were both laughing until he caught her and tossed her into the ocean water, he made sure it was far enough out where she didn't get hurt.

"How is your date going?" I asked Alex smacking his arm a tad to get his attention away from my sister.

"My date with who? Mike or Adora?"

"Adora." I said rolling my eyes but couldn't help but to chuckle.

"Good, it feels like I'm dating Mike more than I am my own girlfriend. I feel quite dirty and awkward, like I need to take multiple showers to get the dirty feeling of Mike rubbing the sun block on my back off my skin and I think I have gotten more action from him than Adora as well." Alex said as he propped himself up on his elbows.

"I'm sorry…he'll come around and when he gets better with this, everything will be okay." I said comforting him.

"I know…I just really like her and I don't want anything to ruin it." Alex said as he glanced to me smiling.

"If anything will ruin it, it won't be on your part or her part….she really likes you too buddy and I swear to God Alex if you do end up breaking her heart, you are dead man walking." I said.

"I think I am more afraid of you than I am of Mike." Alex said nodding to Mike who was now picking Adora up over his shoulder before tossing her back into the ocean.

"As you should." I said smiling as I sat up watching Mike and Adora begin running up to us, Adora stopped in front of Alex.

"Come on, lets go into the ocean." Adora said running a hand through her wet hair.

"Is it cold?" Alex asked as he took Adora's hand for help.

"At first, but then it gets warm…just beware, Mike does pee in the ocean." Adora whispered.

"I do not!" Mike said as Adora grabbed Alex's hand and begun running towards the ocean together. Mike sat on the towel Alex was just on to sit beside me and he squirted some block on his hands to rub in.

"Adora is probably really thankful you did this…." I said as I laid down on the towel.

"I'm thankful too, I get to try to get a real tan than that fake kind."

"Which looks obviously fake." I said smiling.

"I'm about to go throw you in that ocean." Mike said smiling.

"You won't do that…" I said looking to him.

"Can you get my back?" Mike asked.

"Why don't you ask Alex, I'm sure he won't mind since you already groped him…" I joked.

"I was just doing a favor." Mike said as I rolled my eyes and sat up to help put some on his back before he laid down to tan with me, we had spent hours at the beach and honestly I don't know what Alex and Adora did the whole time but I'm sure they were having fun and I am surprised that Mike was able to relax some to tan while they were still running around goofing off or he really has relaxed about this whole thing. If he is, then it will be great and they won't have to worry about him freaking out and they can tell them that they were dating. Alex and Adora walked up almost an hour later dripping wet, Alex picked up one towel helping wrap it around Adora.

"Thanks…you guys done tanning?" Adora asked as she held the towel close around her.

"I think I am….what about you?" I asked looking to Mike who didn't respond, I sat up and reached over taking his sunglasses off seeing that he fallen asleep.

"I got this." Alex said as he put the towel around his shoulders before he squatted down and chopped Mike right across the chest getting Mike to fling up in pain.

"Morning." Adora said laughing.

"You jerk…" Mike said pushing Alex but luckily he had good balance because he didn't fall backwards.

"Your seem a little red…" I said smiling as I wrapped my arms around my legs holding them there.

"Well duh, Alex just smacked me…" Mike said rubbing at the spot Alex just hit him, Adora was chuckling still.

"Suck it up big baby, let's head back we got a show to go do…" Alex said.

"Yeah...we don't want to be late." I said standing up reaching down grabbing the towel I was laying on rolling it up and Mike did the same.

"I'll race you." Adora said towards Alex.

"Your on…" Alex said as they both took off running after each other until they got to the sidewalk, Alex wrapped his arms around my sister's waist picking her up and twirling her a tad, she was laughing and Alex was smiling and laughing as well when he set her back down. We caught up to Alex and Adora running across the street when it was clear, we went up to our rooms showering and getting ready for the show.
