Alexander Peirce loved the feeling of the sun on his skin, the sound of his friends laughing, and the feeling of joy he got when he was around them.

The boy currently sat with his back against a partly built wall as he drew his friends messing around a construction site.

"That's what, a three story fall to the deck?" Came Pope said causing Alex to look up seeing John B standing on a ledge. "I give you one in three chance of survival." Pope said.

"What do you think Art, should I jump?" John B asked using the boys nickname. Sending him a deadpan look Alex went back to drawing. "Well, Art says no." John B said smiling down at Pope.

"No, go ahead, ill shoot you on the way down." Poep said as Alex finished his drawing.

"Are you done?" Came the voice of JJ from his seat on the scaffold. Nodding Alex stood uo handing his note book to the blonde boy. "Not bad Art." JJ said smiling causing the boy to look down bashfully.

"There going to have Japanese toilets with towel warmers." Kiara said as she walked out to where the boys where. "This used to be a turtle habitat, but who cares about the turttles?" She said causing Alex to raise his hand.

"We all know you like the turttles." John B said from the ledge. "Please don't kill yourself." Kia told him.

"And don't spill that beer, I'm not giving you another one." JJ added on only for him to drop it a second later. "Of course, right when I tell you not to." JJ said causing Alex to laugh.

Suddenly the sound of doors closing caught Alex's attention. Looking back he saw security guards aproching. "Security." Alex said simply as he stood up collecting his art supplies into his bag.

"Time to go." Pope said as the others began to hop down, running out if the building. Chasing after them, Alex caught up and ran by John B. "Cone on Art, can't get caught." JB said as he ran faster. Reaching the twinki they all climbed in, before John B began to drive.

"Bus is leaving." He called out to Pope and JJ. "Hurry." Alex yelled as JJ let out a shout of joy as he dived into the van. "Look at him go." Kia said as JJ lea Ed out taunting Gary. Rolling his eyes Alex grabbed the back of his shirt and pulled him in.

"Oh come in, guys gunning for a little humiliation." JJ said with a big smile. Smiling back Alex pulled out his sketch book and began to work on his newest drawing, The running gaurd, as the others talked about the party thay was being hel tonight while they drove through the island.

Life in outer banks was pretty simple. You where eather a rich kook, our a hard working pouge. Alex came from kooks like Kia did, his parents where doctors, and have patched up his friends more than once.

"Watcha working on?" Kia asked Leaning against Alex. Smiling Alex showed her the outline of a guard running after a van with a boy leaning out of it. "Oh I think this one will be my favorite." Kia said with a smile.

"Say, did you finish our group drawing?" Pope asked. Nodding his head Alex flipped a couple pages a day showed a picture of them all sitting together around a fire from the point of view of Alex. "God bless your photo graphic memory and ability to catch every detail." Pope muttered as he looked at the drawing.

Arriving at the Chateau they all climbed out heading sepret way to prepare for the party. Walking into the house Alex put his stuff on the table and went to go grab a drink from the kitchen while John B went to his room to change.

Soon night fell and they all piled back into the van to head to the beach where the party was being held. "Party on." JJ yelled out as they got out of the van causing the other to let out shouts as they made their way towards the crowd of teems.

About two hours in, Alex found himself cottons on a log with a beer in his hand watching JJ flirt with some blonde. Suddenly Alex let out a yelp of suppose when hands grabbed his shoulders. "Gotcha." L
Kia said laughing as she sat down by the boy.

"Oh fuck you Kia." Alex mumbled as he took another sip of his drink. "Wow a full sentence and a cuss word, hiw many of those have yoy had?" Kia asked jokingly. "Um" Alex said raging his fingers to count. "I don't know" he said giving uo returning to watch JJ and the girl.

"I see JJ has found his girl for the night." Kia said pulling the boys attention back ti her. Nodding his head Alex took another drink. "Well, slow down on those drinks, don't need yoy diying on us" She said standing uo before giving him a smile and walking away.

Looking back over he saw JJ being pulled towards the parking lot by the blonde girl. Rolling his eyes Alex got uo and went to go and vet more drinks, ignoring Kia's warning.

'Tome to forget' Alex thought to himself.
