The Break (a dancemoms fanfic)

The Pad

As they exited the airport with their luggage and smile, they made way to their 'taxi' for the week; a Volkswagen Camper van that had been hired for their stay. Packed up and ready to set of, the family hit the windy Californian roads that would lead them to their 'pad'.

From the pictures online that they had seen when booking it, it was a modern, white, beach view house that was popular by many visitors. Containing 5 bedrooms, an open plan living and dining area along with various entertainment assets, it was sure a place that they had all dreamed of staying.

After a short car journey from the airport, they had arrived. By the shocked look on their faces, it was clear that their home for the break was what they had expected.

"I'm going to the pool. Who's coming?" shouted Josh, who jumped out of the car and around the side of the building. "

"ME!" said all of the girls in unison. A two tired pool with a waterfall and a jacuzzi in the centre was more then they could ask for. The splashes created as the girls and Josh jumped into the pool were huge, after all, they were still fully clothed (the excitement had clearly become too much). Brooke and Josh headed for the jacuzzi whilst the rest of the girls were still having fun doing handstands and splashing one another.

Whilst still in the pool, Chloe's phone began to ring. "It's my mum." she said whilst she answered. "Hey Mum" she exclaimed.

"Hey Chlobird, have you got to your beach house yet?"

"Yeah we've just arrived. It's so nice! How did u and the other moms afford it?"

"Well... the Dance Mom days left us with a couple of quid in our pockets. How are the girls and Josh?"

"Well we're just in the pool now. Say hi guys."

"Hi Cristi" said the crew in unison causing a minor laughing fit.

"Anyway mom," Chloe said "I'll speak to u soon as I'm in the middle of a water fight with Maddie and Paige. I can't let them splash me anynore thrn they already have! Give Clara and dad a hug from me. Love you."

"Okay Chlo. Love you too." and with that the phones were put down.

After an hour of relaxing and splashing contests, Josh bought the bags into the house whilst Chloe put on some chips and fish fingers. The rest of the girls were running around the house shouting "I want this room" everywhere they went. The rooms were all of the same size but the themes were different one was a beach theme whilst another a city. Chloe called the girls and Josh to dinner where they sat outside on the veranda watching the sun set.

"Wow what a great but exhausting day it's been." said Chloe

"I agree. Can't wait to see what the rest of the holiday brings." Paige said not yet knowing the drama and trouble that lay ahead.
