3. Pools Make For A Great Cooling Off Point
Napping at 3 pm in a peaceful apartment was as close to paradise as Caitlynn was going to get in the middle of SoCal.
Unfortunately, all good things must end.
"Late! You're late!" Her alarm chimes.
Caitlynn throws herself from her bed, only half awake. She detangles from her blankets and runs to the bathroom. She's halfway through styling her hair with her toothbrush hanging from her mouth when she remembers.
"Dude, I don't have school," She mumbles to herself, removing her hands from her hair to finish brushing her teeth.
She walks back to her room and picks up her phone, shutting off the alarm.
It was 6 pm and she had 50+ text notifs. Rolling her eyes, she checked her chat with Camille.
Contact: In it to Lynn it
In it to Lynn it: we still on for smoothies?
Lights! Cami! Action! : yep, the park in 15
In it to Lynn it: kk
As she pulls on her jacket, she pulls up the group chat.
Many of them were just bitter about the boys, until she sees the more recent messages.

Giggling, Caitlynn grabs her wallet and heads out the door.

Sipping her smoothie, Caitlynn sits next to Camille at the base of a tree in the middle of the park.
"So, how was the talent search?" Camille asks. Caitlynn sighs. "Well. It was successful."
"Does this success have anything to do with the four hot new guys that moved in this morning?"
Caitlynn laughs and bumps her shoulder with her own. "Yep. I've taken you met them?"
"Briefly," Camille shrugs, "I slapped the blond one and performed a scene on him."
"That's one way to make an impression. Do you know their names yet?"
Camille shakes her head. "Ok so there's Kendall, the blond one, James, the one with shaggy brown hair, Carlos, he's the one wearing the helmet constantly, and Logan, he has short, dark brown hair."
