The two British boys hadn't woken up to go jet-skiing, but Alli and I had expected as much. They looked tired, and jet-lagged when they had wandered back in to their room after the house tour.
But, as they walked down the staircase the next morning, the dark crescent moons under their eyes had faded away, and bright, awake looking faces had replaced them.
"So... What are we doing today?!" Alfie asked, enthusiastically, plopping down next to me on the sectional sofa. I paused thinking of the answer. Alfie sat there taking in my outfit, as Marcus stood next to me doing the same.
My floral and pastel pink bandeau bikini was clearly visible under my bleached white dungarees. My white diamond and silver bow necklace hung on a long chain. I suppose the outfit was giving off mixed signals to the still slightly confused looking Alfie and Marcus.
Just as I opened my mouth to clarify, Alli walked in. Her hair was down like mine, except hers dried stick straight, while mine was a mess of blonde curls.
Her outfit was basically the same outfit I had on, but in a slight variations of color.
Her cream colored floral print bandeau bikini was, like mine, under a pair of dungarees. Her's however were blue jean, and stopped just below her bikini top, like a pair of high waisted shorts. Ali's necklace was like mine as well, a bow necklace with white diamond, but on a gold base.
The similarities in our personalities, pared with our tendency to dress alike had given us the nickname, "The Unrelated Twins". Which is what many of our subscribers had taken to referring to us as.
"We are going on some errands... And then out on the lake since we missed last nights fireworks." Alli answered him for me, reaching out to pull me off the sofa. "You're welcome to come... Or stay here." I added taking my best friends hand and popping off the sofa. We didn't stop to look back at them, but something told me they would follow us out to the car.
When we reached the garage door, I smirked to myself. Both boys were slipping on their shoes right behind us.
"We'll roll out then if your ready!" Alli said, tossing me my jeep keys, and opening the door. The sudden blast of hot air hit me hard, making me gasp for a breath. "It's so damn moist out here!" I exclaimed, climbing into the drivers side of my jeep.
"Moist?" Marcus asked, crawling into the backseat behind the passenger side, where Alli sat.
"Yeah, like the air is like water an it clings to you. Kind of like saying its muggy." I answered, pulling out of the garage and on to the road. It smelled like lake out here, not surprising since our road was lake front property, but if you didn't know the smell... It was nearly impossible to imagine. To me it smelled like my favorite summer afternoons, the ones that Alli, Sawyer and I would jump off our dock and tan on patio.
"We watched some of your videos last night." Alfie announced, over the roaring wind coming in through the roofless jeep.
"We watch your videos all the time." Alli replied turning around to smile at him.
"You had so many amazing times all over the states! So Marcus and I got to talking..." He continued, after very maturely sticking his tongue out at Alli.
"Oh yeah? What about?" I asked, turning down the music in attempt to hear him the best I could, but with the wind it didn't make a huge difference.
"Well, we have an idea to propose. But first. Where the hell are we going?" Marcus cut in, looking out the open spot where his window would be.
"Well, you went to Walmart before right?" I asked them, both nodded looking slightly puzzled. "We're going some place even better." Alli concluded, they looked at each other then back at us.
"So what's this plan?" Alli asked, propping her feet up on my dashboard.
"It can wait. Just like our location." Alfie answered boldly, smirking at me in my rearview mirror.
I wasn't one hundred percent sure, but I think them watching our videos got them more comfortable to be around us, and making it easier to get adjusted to our sense of humor. Lost in thought I turned up the radio, and started singing along to an One Direction song.

Finally, I turned down the road I was looking for... And pulled the car into a parking lot in front of Sam's Club. The parent company of Walmart. I pulled down my mirror checking my wind blown hair and lip gloss, before hopping out and opening Alfie'a door for him. Alli opened Marcus's... And we walked through the parking lot.
"What is this place?" Alfie asked, looking down at me. Even though I was tall Alfie was taller, Sawyer was taller than me by a few inches, but I didn't have to look up to talk to him.
"Its kind of like Walmart, because they're both the same company. but this place... Its even better." I answered, skipping up to the doors.
"You better get your camera ready, if you thought Walmart was cool." Alli added, linking arms with me and stepping through the automatic door.
