~~Lloyd's POV~~

I was looking out the window of Cole's Earth Driller, watching the buildings pass by as we drove through the city. The team had decided we needed a vacation and immediately voted to go to the beach. Ninjago City is near the coastline so it did not take long for us to get to where we wanted to be.

"Think you'll find a girl here, green bean?" Kai teased and placed an arm around my shoulder when we got out of the car.

Ah yes, with the whole team getting girlfriends, they always urged me to find one so I 'wouldn't feel left out' but honestly I have no time for any of that especially as the Green Ninja.

And besides, I got used to being the 7th wheel in the family. Having to hug a pillow during movie nights while Jay and Nya cuddle, Kai and Skylor make out, Pixal and Zane are close too, Cole has his cake but he keeps on checking his phone every once in a while.

"I highly doubt it." I shrugged and proceeded to get my things from inside. "Besides, I'm here to relax, not flirt around with every single female I lay my eyes on." I rolled my eyes with a teasing smile.

Thank goodness Skylor came into his life otherwise, I do not know how that boy would've turned out.

"Sand castle building contest anyone?" I heard Nya talking from behind me. The beach was not that crowded but it was also hard to find space.

"You're on!" Cole accepted. "Any prizes?"

"Hm." Nya thought for a bit before Jay joined their conversation.

"Winner gets to pick where we have dinner and the loser has to pay." Jay offered. Although I knew he was already rooting for Nya to win so they could have pizza since all Cole suggests is cake.

"Deal!" Cole and Nya agreed. They shook hands as the bet was now set.

I chuckled and laid my towel on the sand while Zane set up an umbrella between us.

"What do you plan on doing, Lloyd?" He asked and I began to place my stuff down.

"I'm going to lie down for a bit. Maybe go swimming later." I explained. I never really found anything interesting to do at the beach. "What about you?"

"Pixal and I are going to field test one of her new inventions." Zane explained excitedly.

I always admired their relationship. Even with the littlest things, Zane and Pixal would get excited if it meant spending time with each other. I wonder when I would be able to feel that way.

"Good luck with that. Just please make sure Kai does not cause any trouble." I reminded him knowing that the Master of Fire would most likely pull some stunts when no one is looking.

"Affirmative. I will see you later." Zane made his way to Pixal who was talking to Jay about her invention. "Oh. And try to have some fun, Master Lloyd." He turned back to tell me that and I simply nodded even though nothing could possibly catch my attention.

For the next hour, I watch my friends who are now scattered around the beach. Cole and Nya were still in their little sandcastle contest with Jay being the judge. Pixal and Zane walked around with a metal detector to try and find something interesting, Kai and Skylor were out swimming, and that leaves me.
