(Grace P.O.V)
I finished getting ready, and sat down in the dining room chair and waited for everybody. I was picking at the sticker on the bananas when Dillon stumbled down the stairs.
"Can we go tomorrow?" He asked dryly, "why not today?" I questioned, "I'm not feeling very well, plus! There is a chance of storms!"
He looked cruelly suspicious, by the way he was trying to look sick, and the flutter of his eyelashes.
"Really? Okay, I will tell the others." I said, but was quickly interrupted, by Dillon "uh, that's already taken care of!" He said hastily.
I shrugged, and not thinking of checking the weather, I walked back into my room, to change out of my swim suit. I was walking back down the hallway for the millionth time, when Taylor stopped me, I decided she probably hadn't heard the news, because she was still in her bikini.
"Aren't you going to the beach with us?" Taylor asked quizzically, "it seems that mother nature isn't on our side today," I said frowning, "but Dillon said tomorrow would work." She nodded and walked into our room.
I was incredibly bored, so I decided to see who Titans friends were. I stalked up to his bedroom door, and knocked thrice. He opened the door not a minute later,
"what?" He said lazily, "I never got the names of tomorrow's guests," I said, he smiled a wide smile, but didn't say a word, instead he closed the door, "Titan?" he didn't answer, "TITAN" he poked his head out the door, "Oh yeah!! Our guests will be over sooner than planned... Say.. An hour?" He said as he gazed behind me at the wall clock. "What?!" I yelled, "sorry." He said unsympathetically. "Trust me sis, you will be delighted I did this. Think of it as... prepaid karma." He said slyly, then he closed the door, with no intentions of reopening it. "What the hell does that even mean?" I screeched. I guess there was nothing to do but wait.
(Taylor's P.O.V.)
I was watching Doctor Who when there was a knock at the door, Grace was asleep so I should probably get it. But I am so lazy. I'll get it later.
THERE IT WAS AGAIN. The knocking persisted, and awoke me from my light slumber. I was so tired even though it was only 4:00pm I groaned loudly and rolled of the couch. I stumbled through the living room and arrived at the door.
"What." I said as I opened the door, "Well that's a pleasant way of welcoming an old friend." I heard an extremely sarcastic, but familiar voice. "Maverick?!" I screamed and threw my arms around his neck.
"I didn't know you were coming! You should have called," I said In a motherly, but friendly tone, "I haven't' seen you since high school!" "Titan invited me." He said, as we pulled apart.
He flipped his light brown hair out of his turquoise eyes, he was wearing a light gray shirt, with a green jacket on top, but I could still see his muscles through his shirt. He was insanely attractive, I don't remember him being this good looking! I tried to distract myself but find it kind of hard....
"So uh, will you being staying with us then?" I said trying my best to act casual, so I averted my attention to the floor. "Uhm..where is everybody?" He said slowly. "Oh! Grace is either sleeping or on Tumblr, and I don't really know where Titan, Dillon and Bailey are..." My voice trailed off, "Nathan is getting our bags, so I better go help him." He pointed behind him and walked away, I was disappointed yet relieved that he had gone.
(Grace's P.O.V)
I was fast asleep when the bed started shaking, I groaned and rolled over, assuming it was Titan. I then felt someone much bigger than Titan flop onto the bed next to me, just to fall off and land with a hard thump on the floor. "GODDAMMIT, NOBODY TOLD ME IT WAS A WATERBED!!!" A strange-but familiar- voice said, I didn't know who it was, so I acted like I was still asleep. I rolled over lightly, and saw the silhouette of someone's head. It definitely wasn't Titan or Taylor, judging by the length of the hair, but I couldn't tell since it was so dark. It could have been Bailey or Dillon, but the voice didn't match. There was a strange boy in my bedroom, and I did not feel like being killed, so I did what I thought was neccisary. I kicked out as hard as I could, making direct contact with the back of the strangers head, they cried out, then flipped around with speed. I still couldn't see there face very well, but I wasn't going to give up. I leaped out of bed and threw a punch at the mystery boys face, he caught my hand and spun me around to where my back was flat against his chest and his arms were around me. The stranger was at least 5 inches taller, He definitely had the height advantage, but I probably had the speed.
I kicked backwards, and made contact with their knee which gave me enough time to escape. I broke free from his embrace, and tried to run for the light switch, but instead I spun around and dropped to the ground, just like they showed me in self defense. I hit the ground in pushup position, and yanked their feet out from under them. The fell swiftly on their back. I swung over him and I landed on top of him, both of my knees on either side of his hips, my hands pinning down his wrists.
"Woah, easy there tiger, remind me not to anger you!" The guy said.
There was a line of light streaming from the in between my closed blinds, and onto his face, all I could see were these beautiful eyes. They were hazel, with flecks of gold circling the outsides if his pupils, and dark brown lining the outsides, they were absolutely gorgeous, I started to recognize the voice along with the stunning eyes.
"Nathan?!" I said in astonishment, "Where you expecting someone else?" He replied. "Well Titan never said who was coming," I explained, "But I'm glad he chose you! We haven't seen each other in... two years?" he nodded, and I smiled a big smile. I threw my arms around him and put my full weight into the hug. I felt his arms wrap around my waist, he got a lot stronger then I remembered.
The door opened and the lights were flicked on. "Am I interrupting something?" Said Taylor with one eyebrow raised. I got off of Nathan, and pulled him to his feet. "Nope, just saying hello!" I said politely, "maybe you need to say hello a little more gentle next time." Said Nathan who was still rubbing the back of his head where I kicked him. I muttered my apologies, and we all went downstairs.
Now that I could see Nathan better, I noticed that he had gotten a lot cuter, he had brown hair (just like his cousin, Maverick) it hung down into his beautiful dark eyes. He had long, dark eyelashes that cast a perfect shadow over his high cheekbones, and his flawlessly chiseled jaw line. As he was carrying his clothes upstairs, you could see his faultless muscles underneath the thin layer of gray t-shirt. This was going to be fun
