Strength And Stability

Kendall's outfit:

Btw Phoenix and Kyler have known Kendall throughout middle school but have become best friends to her in the past year, and every since Desi was adopted they've become close with her too. So their nickname for Axel is 'Uncle' Ax.

Kyler POV (For a change)

After a day of swimming, making really bad sand castles that looked more like pokey mountains, playing tennis on the beach and overall having a blast, the sun was going down and the clock was ticking. It was 8:30 already and we were eating snacks in the living room with the fans on full blast. 

Uncle Ax walked in the room, kissing Desi and Kendall on the head. He ruffled my hair and stole a chip from Phoenix, saying, "I'm getting ready for bed, you guys don't stay up too long." 

"Night, love you Dad." Kenny said. We all chorused our good nights. I felt bad that we were going to sneak out, he was so nice to us. I was not trying to see him mad, I've seen him get mad at Kendall before and it was pretty terrifying. He's huge by the way. 

Also, I'm pretty sure he spanks them. I doubt he would spank us. But then again, he treats me and Nix like nieces and scolds us just like he would them, so I don't know.

 I'm not trying to find out what an a** beating feels like though. No sirree kebab, not me. Not today.

But here we are, 45 minutes later, sneaking out of the house. 

Let me rephrase that. Here Phoenix and I are, sneaking out of the house because Desi and Mrs 'I want to go to a party parties are so fun' Kendall, decided to chicken out because apparently the last time they had a party it 'didn't end well', and 'he finds out everything'.

 I thought it ended fine, Axel didn't even catch them. But after trying to convince them for 15 minutes, we let it go. 

Once out of the house, we ran like the wind. After running for about a minute, we slowed down and walked normally til we got to a house that was very evidently having a party. 

I turned to Nix. "You ready?" She nodded, and we walked up to the open door.

"Guess it's open for business." I stated. We walked in, pushing our way past the people drinking summery looking cocktails and a few just drinking beer. 

A hot Islander boy walked up to us, displaying his perfectly white straight smile. Ugh, he had huge, kissable lips and a strong jawline. He had to only be 18. "What are you two up to tonight? Do you want drinks?" His olive green eyes stared into mine. 

"Dibs."  Phoenix whispered in my ear before I answered him. "Drinks? We would love some, wouldn't we Nix." I turned to her. She just stared at him. I nudged her with my elbow. 

"Wouldn't we." I said again, pointedly. She blushed. 

"What? Oh, um, yes, of course. Yes."  I rolled my eyes. She was dazzled.

He laughed. "Follow me." He walked past more people, and Phoenix asked me, "Why are we following him again?" 

"He's getting us drinks." I reminded her. 

"Oh. Alcoholic or not?" 

I thought about it. I don't really care for drinking, and I care even less for the hangover. Also, we're minors and it's illegal so... not that I'm a goody two shoes in the slightest. I just don't feel like going to jail. "Non." 

"Fine by me." She agreed. 

When we got to the bar, the guy turned to us. "My name's Cyrus by the way. What would you like?"
