a few days have passed and it was the day of the ball. caroline woke up rubbing her eyes and and finally lifted her legs to the floor. she got up and threw on some nike pros and an old volleyball t shirt. she wasn't planning on going anywhere except for the ball today so she didn't need to get ready just yet.

the time was 11:23 and she headed downstairs to the kitchen. she made a bowl of cereal and sat at the table and went through her phone.

jason becker came out of his office and sat down at the table with caroline.
"today is the ball." he said
"i know"
"does jj?"
"yes dad, i reminded him yesterday."
"does he have a car? because i know you guys aren't showing up on his bike."
"um...no..." she said forgetting that the boy did not have a car. "i'm sure we can use one of your many luxury cars though daddy." she said.
"i'm not sure if i want that kid driving my Porsche or my range rover." he said.
"dad, stop. that's rude. he's a good kid dad. i promise."

caroline put her dish in the sink and went back upstairs to her room. she didn't feel like talking to her father about jj at the moment. speaking of jj, her phone dinged.

caroline went over to check it and it was a message from jj.

you still have my suit,
can i get ready at your place?

of course. be here in 15.

caroline sat on her phone until she heard the doorbell ring. she got up from her bed and ran downstairs to open the door.

and there was jj. his hair messy, as always. his eyes sparkling, as always. and a smile on his face, only there when he saw caroline.

she pulled the boy in for a hug and he placed a light kiss on her lips.
"hey jj!" jason becker shouted after seeing the boy eating his daughters face.

jj immediately pulled away from the girl and his face turned red.
"hi mr. becker." jj said nervously. he went over to shake the mans hand and then walked back to caroline's side.

"we are just gonna hang out before the ball." caroline said.
"fine by me." he responded. "i have to go into the office. i'll be back in a few hours. jennifer is at the cameron's so it'll just be you too."
"ok." caroline smiled.

the three said there goodbyes and jason left in his car. jj turned to caroline and put and hand around her waist and said "so, we are home alone, anything you want to do?" he smirked.
"gross jj." she laughed pushing him off.
"ok but non sexual thinking, what do you want to do?" he asked.
"surf?" she asked innocently.
"sure." he smiled.

the two surfed for about 2 hours and then finally came back. they walked up to her house, water still dripping off of them and they opened the door.
"we should get ready." caroline said.
"ok."
"you can take a shower in the guest bathroom, i also put your suit and shoes and everything on the bed in there." caroline shivered.
"alright, you don't want to take a shower together?" jj smirked at the blonde girl.
"no jj. i don't." she smiled back at him.

~~~

they both went down separate ends of the hallway to get ready. caroline locked her bedroom door just in case jj came in here and saw her dress before she wanted him to.
