�Um, well, since you asked�Naw, I�m just playin�.  I was calling to see if we could come over in  a few minutes?�
�Sure.  Bring your swim suits,  okay?�
�Sure. Bye.�
�Bye Howie.�
�Shannon, we have only a few minutes to get ready.�
�Okay.�

It was 11:15 when a knock on the door sounded through the house.
�Coming,� I said.
�Hi AJ.  Come on in,� I said
�Thanks.  Hey, this is a nice place.�
�Thank you.  Shannon, they�re here.�
�Okay.�
�Hi Howie,� I said.
�Hi beautiful,� he said right back.
�Where�s the rest of the guys?� Shannon asked.
�Oh, they had some things they had to do.  They�ll come later,� AJ stated.
�Okay.  I was thinking we should go to the beach,� I said.
�Hey, I have no problem with that,� AJ agreed
�It�s such a nice day,� Shannon complimented.
�Yeah.  Race ya to the water, Shannon,� I yelled as I got a head start.  But I soon realized that I wouldn�t have that for long as Howie lifted me up.
�Howie, you can put me down.�
�I don�t think so.�
Before I knew it, I was in the water.  And that started a water fight between us.  And then we got Shannon and AJ involved.
�Theresa, that was not fair.  I�m going to have to get you back, you know?� AJ said.
�AJ, I don�t think so,� Shannon told AJ.  �You have to go through me first.�
�That can be arranged,� AJ stated.
�Theresa, help!!!!�  Shannon yelled, right before she was thrown in the water.
�Howie, stop him,� I called.  But it was to late.  I was in the water, right next to Shannon.�
�Shannon, we have to get them back.�
�I know.  But..Let me go AJ!�
�Yikes!� I yelled as Howie picked me up.
�Okay, this is not  a fair fight when you guys can pick us up,� Shannon exclaimed.
�Well, okay.  Hey, AJ, are you getting hungry?�  Howie asked.
�Yeah,�  he answered.
�Well, let�s go back to my house and get something to eat,� I said
�That�s cool,� Howie said.

As we got back to the house the phone rang.
�Hello?�  I asked.
�Hi Theresa.  It�s Nick. Is Howie or AJ there?�
�Yeah, hold on and I�ll get them.  The phone�s for you Howie.�
�Hi. Okay, we�ll be down in a few.  Bye.�
�What�s wrong Howie?� Shannon asked.
�Oh, Nick said that we had a photo shoot today.  We totally forgot.�
�Okay,� she said.
�We have to get going.  Want to come with us?�  Howie asked.
�Um, that�s cool. Right Theresa?� Shannon asked me.
�Oh, yeah.  Just let us change.�

�This is going to be fun, Theresa,� Shannon said.
�Yeah.  But all the other girls are going to be really mad that we�re with them.�
�Oh well.�
�Howie, AJ.  Took you guys long enough?� Kevin asked.
�Sorry, we had to change,� AJ said.
�That�s okay,� Brian said as he was walking out to give me and Shannon hugs.
�Yeah,� Nick agreed as he gave us hugs too.   After that, Kevin was the next one.  As he was pulling away, the girls came running and screaming.
�Come on Shannon,� AJ told Shannon as he held her hand and guided her to his room.
�Let�s get going to Theresa,� Howie said.
�Okay,� I said as Howie slipped his arm around my waist and guided me to his room.

�Ah, alone at last,� AJ said.
�Oh?� Shannon responded.
�Naw,  I�m not going to try anything.  So, you can go ahead and pick out my outfit to wear today.�
�Oh, okay.  Let�s see.  How about this one?  The tight red shirt, baggy blue jeans, red tinted glasses and your black hat.�
�That�s cool.  That�s like my favorite outfit.�
�Really?  I think you look so good in it.�
�So, how�s school going?�
�It�s okay.  Theresa and I only have a few months left then we�re done.�
�Oh, cool.  How long have you guys been friends?�
�Um, like seven years.�
�That�s a long time.�
�Yeah.  We have so much in common.�
�Well, I�m glad to hear that.  So, how do I look?�
�Um�Um�Um�wow.�

�So, does this look okay Theresa?� Howie asked.
�Wow.  You look�..great!�
