Chapter Four: New Friends
At Mall of Miami's Entrance:
Three hours later, Cece and Rocky walked towards to entrance with at least two bags on both their hand. When they arrived at the entrance, the guys are sitting on a bench, drinking coffee, talking to a stranger.
"Hey guys!" Cece greeted them as they walked toward them. Logan handed his ice coffee to Cece, to help cool her down, before helping her with her shopping bags. Cece kissed Logan's cheek before taking a slip of the ice coffee.
Deuce looked over their shoulder and asked, "Where's Dina and Tinka?"
"They just went to the bathroom. They should be out soon." Rocky said.
"Let me help you, little sis." Ty said when he realizes Rocky and Cece staring at the 'stranger', he quickly introduces them to each other. "This is Dez, we met him the pudding cart. He ate like almost a hundred cups of pudding. He's hilarious."
"Hi Dez, nice to meet you. I'm Rocky and this is Cece." Rocky introduced.
"Hi!" Dez waved to them and continued, "So will you guys be going to The Hot Summer Beach Bash? All my best buddies will be there. I could introduce you guys to them."
"Ya, we're going to the beach bash." Ty replied.
"Cool! Meet you guys backstage at 7 so I can introduce you to my best buddy! See ya!" Dez said before leaving.
Not long after Dez left, Dina and Tinka appeared and together the seven of them decide drop by the grocery store to buys some food for tomorrow before walk back to the beach house.
At the Beach House:
"You guys better head to bed early. I'll put away the groceries and food in the kitchen." Ty offered. The others then greet each other good night before returning to their bedrooms to wash up and turn in for bed.
Everyone slept until 10 in the morning before getting up. Logan and Ty were the first two who appeared in the family room, so they decide to make some breakfast for the others.
"Dude! You can cook?" Ty said as his eyes widen when he saw Logan flipping pancakes on the flying pan like a professional chief.
"Well, if you live a dad who's always working. You have to learn to take care of yourself. That's the main reason; my dad is cool with me studying alone in New York with my own apartment." Logan explained while transferring the pancakes to the serving plate Ty lay beside the stove.
"You are lucky. My dad won't stop bugging me when I told him that I want to study major in computer programming and minor in music at Columbia College Chicago. He went even nuts when I told him I want to rent an apartment near my college and it's only a thirty-minute ride away from home." Ty complained as he took the milk and juice out of the fridge.
"Well, at least you got what you want." Logan said as he cracked eggs into the frying pan.
"I know, but I still cannot believe that your dad trusts you so much." Ty said.
Ten minutes later, Deuce, Dina and Tinka appeared in the dining room. When they saw the dining table, all their eyes went wide. On the dining table, there was a plate of pancakes, a plate of eggs and bacons with a carton of fresh milk and orange juice.
"Wow! Who prepared breakfast?" Cece asked as she appeared on top of the stairs with Rocky by her side.
Ty came out of the kitchen with plates and cups and chuckled when he say the expression on their face, and finally he reviewed the name of the big chief, "That would your boyfriend, little red."
"Are you kidding me?" Cece asked in shocked, "Where is Logan?" she asked as she looked around the family room and dining room.
Ty did not say anything but he pointed to the kitchen. Cece then walked into the kitchen to where her boyfriend is. Slowly, one by one, they sat down on the dining table while waiting for Logan and Cece to join them.
When Cece entered the kitchen, she saw her boyfriend, wearing a black and white plaid shirt with black jeans, frying sausages.
'Wow, I really have a super-hot and amazing boyfriend. I'm even jealous of myself right now.' Cece thought as she laughed quietly to herself. She moved quietly behind Logan and hugged him from behind.
"I didn't know you could cook!" Cece half objected as they have been dating for nineteen months and she don't know that Logan could cook.
After Logan turned off the stove, he unwrap Cece's arm to turn around to hug her. He greeted Cece with a breath-taking good morning kiss and said, "I was planning to surprise you when we move to New York."
Cece giggled, "Aww, that is so sweet of you! You are the best boy..."
"Sorry to ruin the moment but we've all really hungry. Do you mind if we have breakfast together first then you two can continue cuddling when we finish!" Rocky poked her head poked her head through the kitchen entrance and interrupted Cece before they get mushy.
Logan laughed, he quickly transfer the sausages to the serving plate. Logan walked towards to the dining table as he held hands with Cece, who is bright red now, on his right and onto the plate of sausages on the other. When they come out of the kitchen, the rest of them are sitting quietly with two seats empty beside Rocky. Cece sat beside Rocky and Logan sat in between Cece and Ty. Together they have breakfast together just like a big family, while discussing what to do in the afternoon.
"Since we will be going to the Beach Bash so I'm thinking why don't we just hang by the mall to get some surfing supplies and we'll return to the beach house at five, to get ready for the bash since we will be meeting Dez at 7." Ty said after he finished his first piece of pancakes.
"Ty, you read my mind." Logan agreed, "Yesterday, Ty and I saw an ad for free surfing and parasailing lessons on the beach on every evening for the whole summer. Ty and I were thinking that we can all go together, and have fun together."
"I don't know about that, Logan! Cece and I were about thinking beach volleyball and sun tanning. Besides those sports does sound a bit dangerous for us." Rocky said while Cece and she exchange a quick glance at each other. Tinka and Dina nodded their head in agreement too.
"Well, it's cool if you girls don't want to join in. Maybe you girls can watch us first. If you want to join, we can teach you later. Besides, beach volleyball sounds fun. We would definitely want to play that sport too." Logan said while refilling Cece's cup with orange juice.
"Logan is right; you girls don't have to join us but may be you want to watch first. They have professional lifeguard on the beach too. You do not have to worry about the risk. We will be there too. Besides, we are here to have our last summer vacation together before you three go to New York. Who knows when will be the next time, we get to have another summer vacation together?" Ty said trying to persuade the girls to change their mind.
Cece, Rocky, Tinka and Dina looked at each other. They all knew that Ty is right. They asked their parents for this vacation together is to create memories. Since Logan, Cece and Rocky will be going to New York and Tinka will be going fashion school in Los Angeles. Only Ty, Deuce and Dina will still stay in Chicago. It will not be the same among them as they will have new friends and a new life in the college. Besides, the guys did not force them to join in, they are only asking them to watch. After thinking for five minutes, they all agree with Ty's idea.
"You are right, Ty. We should all cherish the time together." Tinka said after taking a quick glance at the girls.
"We will all come along with you guys. We cannot promise we will definitely join in but we can promise we will try." Dina added.
"Ok, so it's settled. We will get ready and head to the mall to get some surfing supplies!" Rocky announced.
No one spoke another word after that as deep down in their heart; they really wish they have more time together. But with graduation in a few weeks, they all knew that they have to say good bye sooner than they think. Cece felt a drop of tear round down her face, she quickly wipe it before anyone can see. Logan caught her action but did not say anything. He knew how important the gang is to Cece so he just held onto Cece's hand beneath the table and gave Cece a small smile when she looked at him.
After they finished breakfast, Dina and Rocky offered to wash the dishes as the rest get ready for the mall.
At Mall of Miami:
The seven of them head to a store named 'Billl's Surfshop' to get all their surfing supplies. After asking the shop owner, Billl, what they need. They decide to get a rash guard and leg leash each and a piece surf wax to share.
"Cece, why do we need to buy a rash guard and leg leash, I thought we have not decided if we will join them?" Tinka asked as the guys went check out the surf boards.
"I know, but we can still get them if, just in case, we join them. Besides, we have all agreed to go diving next week and we will have to wear a rash guard when we sail out to the sea. Unless you want to wear the rash guard the diving school proves? Who knows how many people have worn that thing….. Maybe even without underwear." Rocky replied, smirking towards Cece and Dina.
Tinka eyes went wide as she imagined herself wearing a rash guard which was worn by someone, may be a guy, without underwear. She shivered at that thought and quickly shakes her head to get that thought out of her head before it gets ugly. Cece and Dina giggled as they saw the expression on Tinka's face.
"Nice one, Rocky!" Cece high-fived Rocky when she saw Tinka quietly went to get a rash guard and leg leash. Cece, Rocky and Dina can't stop laughing at that priceless expression on Tinka's face. Even when the guys return, they were still laughing. They looked at the three of them with a puzzled expression.
"What's so funny?" Deuce asked as he looked at Cece, Rocky and her girlfriend.
Tinka quickly gave a warning to the three of them, telling them to watch what they say.
"Nothing." Cece said as she pulled Rocky and Dina to the cashier. Tinka quickly followed them while avoiding eye contact with the boys. The boys looked at each other and just shrug their shoulders before following them.
When they came out of the surf shop, they came across a store name 'Shot in the Dark' which was located beside 'Mini's'. Out of curiosity, they went in and found a miniature golf course that glows in the dark. After asking the shop assistance, they decide to hang there for a few hours since its only noon.
"Wow, this is the coolest miniature golf course I have ever been to!" Cece exclaimed when the shop assistant gave them their golf clubs and golf balls.
As they walked to the gold course that the shop assistance assigned, whey realize the club on their hands all glowed into different color, even the basket of golf balls turned to be a basket of rainbow balls. When they arrive at the course, they saw pictures of different planets on the wall and a space ship, all with holes in the middle as targets.

"Zam! This place is so cool! I feel like I'm playing golf in space." Logan said as he marked his first shot.
"My turn!" Deuce announced after Logan's ball went into the hole. He felt like a kid again, even though to they are already 18, but who cares, Deuce Martinez will have fun whenever he wants to!
When Deuce's ball stopped by the edge of the hole, Dina quickly cheers for her boyfriend, "Good shot, baby!" She moves into position and take her shot, her golf ball row by the edge of the hole pushing Deuce's golf ball down the hole.
"Whoa! Score!" Dina cheered the moment her ball drop into the hole.
Everyone stared at the hole as their eyes went wide. It was such a perfect shot that all the six of them clapped and cheered for Dina.
"Dina! You are really good." Cece praised Dina as Rocky moved into position.
"Why, thank you! I used to play golf with my dad when I was little." Dina said.
Remember to tell me what you think :)
