Waking up to snoring isn’t the greatest way to wake up. Rolling over I hit something warm and hard, Tristan’s chest, I would know this feeling anywhere. I gently drag his arms off my body and quickly roll off the couch, only to find myself in a minefield of bodies. Picking my way through the mass, I walk towards my closet picking out my running gear. Walking out tying up my hair I see everyone is still asleep so I creep out of my door and out into the warm morning air. I stretch out before slowly jogging down our driveway and out into the street. 30 mins later and I’m starting to make my final sprint home, I push myself as hard as I can and make it, shaving 10seconds off my time! Score, dad will totally be happy with that. Strolling back into my room, the boys are still asleep. Of course they are! I roll my eyes and chuckle silently, as I make my way to our home gym. I start by plugging my phone into the dock and blasting Bliss N Eso throughout the sound proof gym. Half way through my kick boxing session Blake walks through the door wearing sweats and a t-shirt,
“Sum, can you please spot for me?”
Rolling my eyes I say “Sure Blake”
He grins and walks over to the weights bench, he’s been gradually lifting more and more till he can’t and I have to help him pull it up for the last time.
“Great work Blake, I think you’ll be ready for the next heat soon”
He grinned “Yeah, well with my awesome help, you’ll be in shape for your next comp. speaking of which when does your dad start your training today?”
I sigh and crinkle up my face “Pretty much as soon as I get home from school, so I better not have any bloody homework”
“Well that’s what you’re going to have to put up with if you wanna become pro Sum”
“Yeah I know, I just want a scout to see me already!”
“It just takes time and hard work, you’ll get there eventually”
“I know, thanks Blake”
“No prob, see ya downstairs”
We walks out, and I continue my kickboxing for the next 30mins before I have to get ready for school. My timer blares, meaning it’s time to get ready, I clean up in the gym before returning downstairs, where the guys are already showered and changed ready for school
“Summer, you better hurry up if you don’t wanna be late for school” Jace yells
“Yeah yeah” I yell back, as I walk into the shower
I let the water wash off all the griminess and cleanse me. Jumping out and drying myself I look through my closet searching for something to wear. I decide to put on my black bikini, shorts and an old surfing comp shirt with my black converse. I walk out and pick my bag up off the floor, grabbing my keys off the desk I yell to dad
“Bye dad, see you after school”
“Don’t you dare be late again Summer Elissa Thomson, be changed and down on the beach at EXACTLY 4.00pm” he hollers as I run out the door.
Everyone piles into my black jeep wrangler and we drive to school, singing ‘the festival song’ by PEZ at the top of our lungs. Parking in my usual spot near the pond we all walk into our school. At least one of the boys is in each of my classes, so I have at least one person to talk to. Sitting in my usual spot in history next to Jace, I take out my book and start doodling in the corner. Jace suddenly nudges me and I glance up to the door, where 2 new people are walking in. I literally stopped breathing momentarily, standing in the doorway was no other than Lani.

“Summer get up now, you’re going to be late” my dad roared
I shot up in bed and immediately checked the clock, 9.30am. Shit id missed training and the comp starts in 20mins! I sprint around my room trying to get ready only just dragging my arm through my competition rashy when all the boys enter my room. They see my panicked face and help me get all my stuff ready. Thank god for the boys. We all run up to the table and I sign in.
