Lila was serving tables at her work when she felt someone tap her on her right shoulder. She turned around to see her girl best friend with a cooler and Lila's bag in each of her hands.


"Come on, the boys are outside, Linda is going to cover for you." Kie assured her.

Lila raised her eyebrows, tilting her head slightly. "Really?"

"Yeah, plus, I convinced my dad to let you out." She replied with a smile.

Lila sighed heavily as she gave into Kie's words. "Okay."

Kie grinned at the girl and handed Lila her bag with her change of clothes inside. Lila decided to change into her bathing suit, walking over to the employee bathroom to change.

...

"Oh, top o' the mornin' to ya." JJ greeted the girls as they walked down the dock.

JJ, John B and Pope sat in the boat waiting for the two of them to arrive when they walked out of the Wreck. Lila smiled at the sight of them, happy to see them.

"Good morning boys." Kie and Lila greeted them in unison.

"Morning." Pope returned.

"Whatcha got? You got some juice boxes?" John B asked Kie about the cooler in her hand.

"You know, just some yogurts and carrot sticks." She replied jokingly.

"How about my kind of juice box?" JJ asked, playing along with the joke.

Kiara stepped into the boat with the help of JJ as she hummed. "Mhm."

Lila stepped into the boat next with JJ's help. He offered his hand to her which she accepted. When she was steady on the boat, they both let go of each other's hands. She placed her bag down next to JJ before walking over to her brother who was steering the boat.

"Brace for impact." He spoke in a low voice that made him sound like a captain.

"Salud." Kie cheered as her and JJ's beer bottles clinked against one another.

"Skoal."

Lila took off her work clothes and put them in her bag, that left her just in her floral bathing suit that she put on before she left. She sat back down on the boat, sitting beside Kie while the girl drank her beer.

"Hey, Pope. Can you go a little faster?" JJ suggested as he stepped onto the foot of the boat.

"Here we go." Pope sighed, knowing what JJ was trying to do. "I'm movin."
