Cathy's POV

Growing up I've spent almost every summer staying at my fathers country club out of town. I've always argued that naming it after our last name was a bit boring, my dad agrees, but it's too late to change it. It's been the called The Hennessy for decades now.

Every now and again my friends would come along with me and we would spend majority of our time tanning by the pool and gawking over the attractive staff or trying to get the attention of who ever was on life guard duty. Needless to say, it's always fun going up there, but it's never nearly as fun unless my friends come along. This year is one of the years when my friends are coming up. Unfortunately, they had to come up a week later than I did so it's been agony to wait.

Kenna, Alex, and Emily have been my best friends ever since we were little. In fact, we've been friends so long I don't even remember how we met. Alex has always been the sensible one; the rest of us are always getting in over our heads and sure enough she's always there to help us out.

It amazes me that I've been here for slightly less than a week and yet I'm not even fully unpacked. I finish hanging up any left over shirts and fold any shorts and put them away. I make sure to leave enough room in the closet and dresser for my friends seeing as there's going to be a lot of clothing in the room for the next two months.

I go over the two queen beds that we'll be sleeping on and make sure there's no bumps; I just want the room to look perfect for when they arrive.

I hear the door open, "Knock, knock." Kenna's voice and immediately turn around to greet my friends. Alex and Emily file in just behind Kenna with massive luggages.

"Wow Em, you packed light." I tease when I see her lug in only two luggages and one smaller bag draped over her shoulder.

"Don't worry she's got one more bag coming up. It wouldn't fit on the trolly so they're bringing it up now." Alex clarifies.

"Makes sense." I giggle.

"Hey, I need options." Emily defends.

"You're probably going to end up borrowing some of my things anyway." Kenna adds. Em shrugs in defeat because she knows Kenna's right.

"So there's going to be two of us in one bed, who's sleeping with me?" I ask.

"I guess I will." Kenna responds.

"Alright, Alex and Emily you guys have the other bed."

"I'm exhausted." Emily plops down on the bed she and Alex will be sleeping on.

"From what?" Alex stands in front of her.

"I don't know, I just am." She stretches out. "I just want to hurry up and go sit by the pool so I can see all the hotties."

"Right, so then get your stuff on and we'll go." I suggest walking over to the drawer where I put all my bikinis. The girls rest their bags on the floor and take out theirs as well.

"There's only one bathroom so we have to take turns." I say.

"You go, we all know you'll take the longest." Kenna nudges Emily.

Without objectifying, Emily strides into the washroom with her light pink bikini in hand.

After all of us had changed, we had gone down to the pool and found four chairs where we usually find them and set our stuff there.

I didn't really feel like swimming so I sat on the edge of the pool with my feet in the water. The other girls were in and stayed around me since little kids were splashing around behind them.
