AJ's P.O.V.

"Thank you." I say, getting up and giving them a hug.

"Ok now that that is out of the way, we need to leave. It's already almost 11:00 and we still have to find a spot at the beach. We have the bags with the towels and sunscreen and the cooler with the drinks in the car already." Says Autumn.

We all get off the couch and go to the garage to get into the car. We leave the house, Ayden and I get started on setting up my phone.

We got it set up, now we are starting to download different social media apps and games. The first apps that I downloaded are Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok and I found an app called Wattpad. Then I downloaded Spotify, Netflix, Disney Plus and Hulu.

We find an empty spot to park when we get to the beach. I climb out of the back seat and meet Ayden at the back, to help carry the bags. As we walk on the pathway to the beach, we scope out a place to set up our stuff.

We find an empty spot and swerve through the crowd. We get to the spot and set our bags down. Autumn hands out our towels, we lay them down on the sand as Ayden sets up the umbrella.

Once everything is set up I take off my shirt, shorts and flip-flops, put on some sunscreen so less chances of getting burnt and lay on my towel so I can hopefully get a nice tan. Autumn follows my actions and Ayden takes off his shirt, leaving him in his swim trunks.

We lay there for about an hour before we decided to get up from out seats and walk down to the water and swim. At the moment, there are more people on the beach than in the water.

Ayden and Autumn run passed me and into the water. I put my feet into the water and noticed how cold it was. For how hot it is today, you would think that the water would be warmer.

"Come on AJ, it's not that cold." Ayden said from a little ways away from me with Autumn.

"Umm, I think I'm going to stand here for a little while." I say.

He doesn't say anything back. I look around, just enjoying the view of the water when the next thing is I'm being lifted up over someone's shoulder and they are running back into the water. Immediately, I see that its Ayden.

"Ayden! I swear to the flipping seas, if you don't put me down right now, I'm going to murder you." I make sure to scream in his ear.

"Ok, if you insist." He says. Before I knew it, I'm being lifted off his shoulder and thrown in the air.

I released a high pitch scream as I'm flying threw air. As I hit the cold water of the ocean, I close my eyes and plug my nose. The water surrounds me as I move so my feet are underneath me and push up from the ground.

I come up out of the water probably looking like a drowned rat. I wipe the water out of my eyes and look over at Ayden and Autumn, seeing them laughing their asses off. I give them the hardest glare I could muster without joining their laughter.

"Really. You just had to do that?" I say, putting emphasis on had.

They were laughing so hard that neither of them could say anything. So I did the only thing that came to my mind.

I quietly walked closer to them, without them noticing and splashed as much water at them as I possibly could. Their laughing fit came to a halt when the water hit their faces. The faces that they were making out of shock were to funny, I couldn't help but laugh at them.
