Teagan's POV
"This is going to be so much fun. I love beach parties." Reagan pulls into the beach parking lot and finds a spot. Nick said we didn't need to bring anything since they had plenty of chairs and other beach necessities. I see a large group of people a short distance away, so we start walking over. Some are playing volleyball or football while others are playing cornhole. Reagan takes off her short and shirt, revealing her bikini. Well, at one point I was confident about this, but now I'm not so sure I feel so awkward and I never feel awkward. I'll just keep my shorts on and just take my shirt off for now and see how I feel later, so I do just that. I place my shirt in Reagan's bag and go to find her in the crowd of people.

"Hey there, you are wow you look hot." I slap Nick on the arm.
"Okay, ow that does hurt, you know." He rubs his arm.
"I'm aware. Thank you very much." Reagan and I laugh at Nick, who rolls his eyes.
"Hey Reagan said you'd play volleyball with us. We're up next, so we better get over there." You know I hate when she answers for me.
I drag my feet through the sand as he pulls me along with them. The other group's game ends and Nick tries telling me where to go, but I reply by flicking him off and telling him I know what I'm doing. Ask me how surprised I am when I learn I'm playing against Zack spoiler alert. I'm not surprised at all. He stands right in front of me on the other side, looking me up and down multiple times. I feel my cheeks turn a light shade of pink as I bite the inside of my cheek, fighting back a smile. We start the game and I quickly learn Nick sucks complete ass at volleyball. That little shit tried telling me what to do when, in reality, he has no clue what he's doing.
"Nick, I'm about to kick you off the team if you don't start getting any balls over the net!" I yell, warning a glare from him and a few laughs from others.
"Hey, I play football. I throw balls, not hit them, so fuck you." I laugh at his remark.
We continue playing for a while and we're both tied at 19 points and we have to get to 20 to win. Zack's team serves to ball and we go back and forth a couple times before I hit it for the last time over the net and watch as Zack dives for it but misses and it hits the ground. Our team's cheers and Nick lifts me onto his shoulders, which earns a warning look from Zack. After Nick puts me down, he goes off to play football with some of the guys while I sit in one of the chairs with Reagan and watch them. The sun begins to set, so they start a fire in one of the fire pits.
"Are you going to talk to Zack?" Reagan asks quietly.
"Why should I? If he wants to talk, he can come to me." I sigh and look over and watch as he talks with another girl whose name is Miranda, I think.
