*Rachel’s View*
“Awww, Mary and Nick look so cute together.” I thought to myself. “I wonder if they ever thought about becoming a couple.”
“Nicky and Mary look cozy don’t they?” AJ whispered to me. He looked at the two as though they were children.
“God AJ looks hot.” I blushed at the thought.
“What is it?” He questioned.
“Huh? Oh nothing.” I answered. “You and me can share that yellow jet ski right there.” I pointed.
“So, you like yellow now too?” He laughed.
“Yeah. I picked up a lot of your traits.” I informed him.
“Oh really?” He raised his eyebrows.
“So I guess we’re taking the boat.” So’Cy said.
“Cool. You guys are gonna get so wet. Haha and stuff.” Howie said.
“Not if we have anything to do about it.” I shouted. She was already running to the boat. Mary and Nick were already speeding around in the water. They came close to So’Cy and Howie and did a sharp turn, soaking them before they even pulled away from the dock.
“Oh, they’re gonna get it now.” So’Cy grinned devilishly. She quickly started the boat up and chased after the two. She caught up and totally drenched them.
“Come on.” AJ pulled at my arm. “We haven’t gotten even a little wet yet.” So we went to the jet ski and were also in the extremely wet game of chase. We were all messing around for about an hour. Then we decided to get something to eat. We were all completely soaked so we had to change. The guys obviously had nothing to change into. So they were walking around the house in they’re boxers. That is quite a sight I must say. We had the rest of their clothes in the dryer. I think Mary was enjoying it a little too much. So was So’Cy. Heck! Maybe I was too. You can’t really blame me. After the guys had their clothes back on we heated up some pizza.

For some reason I felt like I was falling for Nick. “He is so hot.” I thought to myself. But he’s my best friend. This cannot be a good thing. Could it? I didn’t want to think about it at the moment. “So, uh… how’s Brian?” I wondered.
“He’s pretty good. Still with Leighanne.” Nick said, about to take a bite of his pizza.
“She’s the girl?” I asked. I had never actually learned her name.
“Yeah. That would be her.” AJ said somewhat sourly.
“So, So’Cy, what do you do for a living?” Howie asked.
“Me? I do the same as Rachel, trading stocks online, but I don’t want to do that for the rest of my life or anything.” She smiled.
“What do you want to do?” He returned.
“I have wanted to become a singer for a long time.” She blushed slightly. I didn’t know that about her actually.
“You know, you should visit us on tour and you could find out about the music business up close.” Howie suggested.
“Are you serious?” So’Cy wondered.
“He doesn’t lie.” AJ butted in. I was astonished at this change in events.
“That would be great.” She grinned.
“Hey, Mary. Are you ready to come back and join us?” Nick asked me. I realized how much I really wanted to come back. Not only did I want to be there with Nick, but I felt I needed to patch things up with Brian.
“I would love to come back Nicky.” I said. I looked at Rachel. She seemed as if she was just longing for AJ to invite her. I knew she had fallen for him again. She just seemed so happy. I was really happy for her too. They really were a cute couple and he was such a sweet guy now. Nothing happened though. I was kind of confused. They both obviously wanted to get back together. Did AJ become shy all of a sudden? I decided to do the work for him. “Rach, will you come with me?” I asked shyly.
“Uh… I don’t know.” I think she was hoping for AJ to be the one to ask. Since he didn’t she had no idea if he really wanted her to come.
“Come on Rachel. You gotta come.” AJ pleaded.
“Yeah. Sure I’ll come.” She said casually.
“Great!” AJ hollered enthusiastically. “Full tour bus!” AJ is so funny when he is geeked. Nick was smiling ear to ear. It seemed that Howie and So’Cy had a thing for each other too. I mean, I knew she liked him, but it was cool that they both got along so great. It’s like at that moment life was perfect. A kodak moment if you will.
“We leave in two weeks for Europe to start the tour.” Nick informed us. “So we have some time to kill.”
“What do you mean time?” So’Cy said shocked almost. “We have some major shopping and packing to do.”
“That’s right.” Rachel added. “You have no idea how important shopping can be.”
“Oh, but you forget. I love shopping.” AJ grinned happily. So we decided to go to an outlet store in a small town about thirty minutes away. Hopefully it would be small enough for the boys not to be recognized. “I come here all the time to get away from things.” AJ admitted.
“This place is amazing.” I said in awe. They had some of the coolest clothes I had ever seen. We spent lots and lots of money. Finally we decided it was enough and went home to sleep. Of course we let the guys go home. They all said they had a good time. We were exhausted. We slept really well.
