two - beachy days

Layla had waken up around eight in the morning, and began to get dressed. Usually on mornings like this, the boys would go and fill up the boat or John B would head to do something for the Cameron's. John B usually woke up very early.

Then, the boys would scoop up Layla and Kie and they would set out for the day. This lovely Saturday morning was no different. While there was a group of five the night before, only Kie and Layla were left currently.

Layla began to get dressed for the day and allowed Kiara a few more minutes of shut eye. After brushing her teeth, Layla grabbed a swimsuit out of her drawer of bathing wear. Living and growing up in the OBX, she probably had acquired over twenty swimsuits over the years. An aspect of being in the friend group was always being prepared for a swim it seemed.

She grabbed her dark green, high waisted bikini out of the drawer. It was covered in white polka dots. The top had straps that needed to be tied over the shoulders, giving a nice bow effect. It was a girly swimsuit. Layla's style changed depending on her mood. Today, she was in the mood to wear it.

Layla grabbed the tank on top of the pile on her desk chair, pulling the white, sleeveless tee over her bikini. She did not recognize it as hers, but it was in her laundry; it was hers now. She usually just covered up with a t-shirt or tank.

Kie rolled over in the bed, turning to Layla who was brushing her hair in the vanity. "Is that JJ's?" Kie questioned. Her eyes glanced at the shirt over Layla's body.

Layla shrugged, looking down at it. "Probably, to be honest. It was in my pile so Grandma probably picked it up off the floor and washed it and just gave it to me."

Kie smiled, shrugging. She didn't believe Layla. "Whatever you say." Kie headed into the bathroom, presumably to brush her teeth. When she exited, she changed into a swimsuit she plucked from Layla's drawer as Layla was getting ready. Kiara decided on a fuller coverage top with high waisted bottoms; the top was white and the bottoms were black.

Most of the swimsuits Layla and owned were high waisted. She still had some insecurities, despite the sometimes tiny bikinis she wore.

Of course, no one ever noticed what she hated about herself.

Kiara and Layla had the kind of relationship where they would just exist around each other. Kie had a drawer at Layla's house, they slept in the same bed, they changed in front of each other. They had been great friends for years.

Layla subtly grabbed the neckline of the shirt in her fist and brought it up to her nose. She took a deep inhale. Despite the wash, it still had the faint smell of JJ; it was his. She was not sure if it was the smell of cologne or just the smell of JJ.

Layla figured JJ would get a kick out of it, if he even noticed.

The girls finished getting by themselves ready and headed down to Layla's dock. They had brought the cooler filled with the good stuff.

Layla lay at the bow of the HMS Pogue, her stomach pressed against her towel that was spread out. She was in her swim top and bottoms, allowing the sun to soak her body.

All the boys were ogling over the view of Layla's butt in the bikini bottoms occasionally; she did not give them this site intentionally, nor realize they were all staring at her. For a girl with a smaller frame, her butt was rather large. Kie rolled her eyes at her friends who would look up and stare every so often.

She didn't even notice JJ come and settle in with his back to the bow. "You're roasting like a lobster, maybe you should put my shirt back on," JJ remarked. His tone was light. She couldn't see his face, as he was facing the other way. She could imagine the stupid smile he had on his face.
