I swam around with Skylynn for a couple minutes until she decided she'd rather play in the yard.
We swam for a bit longer till Elizabeth called us in for lunch. We all sat around the table dripping wet while she served us sandwiches.
Nash Hayes and Will had a contest to see who could eat there's the fastest. Will won. Hayes came and second and Nash started choking on the second to last bite.
Hayes smacked him on the back and he spit half chewed peanut butter and jelly on the table. "Thanks Hass." he said as he took a drink from his water bottle.
When we finished Elizabeth set towels on the floor in the living room so we could watch tv.
We sat on the floor eating chips and watching spongebob. I felt a chip hit the side of my face and I looked over at Hayes.
He giggled. I threw a handful of chips at him. He threw some back but missed. They hit Nash and Matt. They looked over at him and he laughed.
Soon we were all throwing chips including Skylynn and Will.
Elizabeth ran in and started yelling at us. She sent us outside so she could clean up.
When we got the rest of the chips out of our hair we got back in the water. We raced from the door to the water and Will won.
I came in second, Nash third, Carter fourth, Matt fifth, and Hayes tripped over a tree root and rolled the rest of
the way there. "Let's go tubing!" I suggested.
First was me, Nash and Skylynn. Nash fell off and I held onto Skylynn so she wouldn't.
She was giggling like a maniac and her blonde hair was wiping behind her in the wind.
I meant to let go of her when I fell off but I wasn't fast enough and accidentally pulled her off with me.
They turned around and picked us up then we went back for Nash.
Skylynn went again with Matt, Camy, and Carter then again with Will and Hass.
"Guys I'm going to the mall! Do you want to come?" Elizabeth yelled from the door. We all ran out of the water and threw clothes on over our wet bathing suits.
We hopped in the car and laughed as Hass struggled to strap Skylynn in. When he finally finished we drove to the mall.
We ran up and down the escalators while Elizabeth shopped for new clothes for the boys.
"Come on little buddy let's race!" I yelled. I raced him up the escalator and laughed when he fell at the top.
"I dare you to go take a selfie with that old man!" Carter dared me. I walked over to the man yelled "SELFIE!" Took the pic and ran. I heard him laughing behind me. I looked smugly at Carter.
"Didn't think you'd actually do it." He mumbled.
I laughed as we headed towards the food court. I got a red blue and green slushy (my favorite) and they all got ice cream. Skylynn sat on my lap and I could feel her wet bathing suit through her clothes. We didn't exactly dry off before we got in the car.
When we were done we headed back to the house and played hide and seek with Skylynn. She insisted that she had won even though Matt, Carter and Hass had to come out after twenty minutes of her looking. We let her think she had won so she would drop it.
Later that night we grilled out and ate hamburgers as we flouted on the lake in inner tubes.
When we finished eating we went swimming even though it was dark already.
Then we climbed trees with Skylynn. When we got bored of climbing tress we went inside to watch tv.
Skylynn insisted that we turn on spongebob. We all sat there cracking up as spongebob and Patrick started drowning in an underwater lake. I fell asleep on Nash's shoulder.
When I woke up everyone was still asleep on the floor. Matt had his head on my lap so instead of waking him up I pulled out my phone and checked my Twitter.
The guys had all tagged me in pics from the mall and swimming outside. There were pics of me sipping my slushy with Skylynn on my lap and pics of me taking huge bites out of my cheeseburger while I sat in my inner tube.
Carter had posted a pic of me sleeping on Nash's shoulder with Matts head in my lap.
I laughed quietly at some of them. Then I started reading the comments.
They were pretty mean. 'who is that little bitch?' 'Why are the guys hanging out with that girl?' 'She's not even pretty!' They were super hurtful. Then I read some of the guys replys. 'She's so ugly! Why do they like her?' Some girl said. 'She my Bae don't be mean to Zoe!' Carter replied.
'That girl thinks she so cool because she gets to hang out with them! Who even is she?' A girl asked. 'My best friend bitch!' Nash replied.
'My baby girl!' Was the caption in one of Matt's pics. 'That girl looks like a stupid blonde! I bet she can't tell you what 2+2 is!' A girl said. 'She'd answer faster than you!' he replied.
'Hayes ditch that little bitch and come hang out with me!' Some girl commented on Hayes' picture of me and Skylynn playing Mario kart. 'No thanks Zoe occasionally breaks out in song and I wouldn't miss that for the world!' He replied.
"Zoe?" Matt asked sleepily. "Yeah I asked. "What time is it?" He asked. I checked the clock on my phone. "Eleven." I said. He sat up and yawned. His hair stuck up in random places and I laughed. "Good morning!" Nash said as he pulled me back against his chest. "Hey little buddy!" I said. He kissed me on top of the head. "Go take a shower. Trust me, you need one." He said. I laughed as I sat up. I stretched and yawned. I got up and stepped over a sleeping Camy with Skylynn laying on his back.
I picked my way through the maze of sleeping boys and nearly stepped on Hass' hand as I tried to get to the kitchen.
I pulled a granola bar out of the pantry and ate it on my way to the bathroom.
When I got to the upstairs bathroom I heard the boys downstairs break out in song.
I laughed as they started to sing the lipgloss song. I hopped in the shower. When I got out I put on my 5 seconds of summer shirt and some shorts. I brushed my hair but did nothing else since it fell into perfect curls.
When I went downstairs they decided they were all going to jump out and scare me.
I jumped and screamed. "Ughh! I hate you guys!" I yelled but laughed.
Nash ran up to me and held out his phone "SELFIE!" He yelled. I smiled right before he took the picture. "Dang it!" He said looking at his phone. "Sorry little buddy." I said as I pulled a box of Apple jacks out of the pantry.
Let's go out to eat tonight." I suggested.
"I know this really god place down the street." Nash said. "Thanks little buddy." I said as I poured my cereal.
We hung out and watched tv till dinner.
I pulled on my white lacy crop top and black high waisted shorts with my white vans.
My obsession for vans was as bad as the guys.
I pulled my hair up into a ponytail and put on my mascara and lipgloss. I went to Skylynns room and helped her get dressed. "Can I have some?" She asked touching my lips. "Sure!" I said and laughed. I put some of my lipgloss on her small lips and she smiled.
She ran out of the room and down the stairs.
I followed her as she ran into the kitchen. She stood up on a chair and gave Nash and Hayes kisses on the cheeks. She laughed at the marks it left on their cheeks.
"Hey!" Both Nash and Hayes said trying to wipe their cheeks off. I laughed as she ran over and hid behind my legs.
When they had gotten their cheeks wiped off we got in the car to go to the restaurant. We were all talking till "Let Her Go" by Passenger came on and I started singing.
They went silent as I sang. When the song ended they all started clapping and I laughed. "It wasn't that good." I said. "That was so good I vined it." Camy said. "Damn it Camy!" I told him but laughed.
"OH SHIT!" He yelled. "What?!" I asked. "I accidentally put where we were going in the comments!" He said. "Rookie mistake." Carter said.
