Ike walked into the door of their house, smiling to himself. "Awww, Ike what did you do kiss her?" Tay asked teasingly. Ike's smile widended and Taylor appeared "shocked". Zac made kissy noises and Ike just pushed him aside, and procceded to sit down on the couch. Diana came in from the kitchen. "How was it guys? Did you have fun?" she asked. "Yes, Aunt Diana. It was a blast. We had a really great time, aside from being late." Jeff said. "Zac, go get ready for bed. You guys can hang out for awhile more." Diana said. "Actually, I think I'm going to bed. Running on sand is probably the toughest thing in the world to do." Jeff wearily said. "Asides from trying to get Zac to sit still for a full 60 seconds." Ike added, and they laughed. "Hey! I resemble that remark!" Zac cried. Diana looked at him pointedly and gave him the high sign to go to bed. "I'll be in the kitchen if you need me." Diana said. "Ok, mom." Tay and Ike said in unison. As soon as she left Taylor said "So how do you like them?". "Who, Beth, Melissa, Mary, and Ami?" Ike asked. Taylor rolled his eyes. "Noooooo, Larry, Moe, Curly, and Shep." Ike fake punched him and laughed. "They are really cool. But Beth........ she is really cute. Short, but in a cute kinda way." Ike replied, having a slight faraway look in his eyes. "Hey, they all are short. I love Ami's hair. It's even blonder than ours!" Tay said. The two discussed things for a few hours. "I wonder if we'll keep in contact after Myrtle Beach. You know, in 2 weeks." Ike commented, thinking about it. "I think we will. Some friends keep in touch for years, even if they don't see each other for long periods of time." Tay answered. They both said goo d-nights and walked off to their bedrooms. *********** *********** Beth sat up and streched. 'What a fine day' she thought to herself. She brushed her hair and went to get something to eat, when she heard someone knock on the front door. Curious, she opened the door. *********** *********** Ike and Tay were surprised to find Beth standing at the door wearing plaid boxers and a red adidas shirt. "Are we too early?" Taylor asked, turning a wonderful shade of pink. Beth laughed. "Well, just a bit." she said. "How much's a bit?" Ike said, grinning. "Oh, about 2 hours." "Are you serious!??" Taylor said, surprised. "Yes I am. Come on in, and eat breakfast with me." They looked at eat other and smiled. "Soooooo....., is Ami up yet?" Taylor implied. Beth laughed. "Nope. Her, Mary, and Melissa are such sleepyheads. My parents are probably up, but they have the cabin next to ours." She said. "Well," Ike said, hopping up on a stool by the kitchen counter," What's for breakfast?". Beth scanned the cupboards with her eyes. "Hmm, we have Kashi, Lucky Charms, Pop Tarts, and I can make french toast or eggs for you guys." She replied. "I think I'll have some strawberry pop-tarts." Taylor decided. "And I'll have some french toast." Ike added. ***** "So what are we going to do today?" Beth asked, pouring herself a glass of milk. Ike grinned when he saw a milk mustache forming on her upper lip. "We could go to an arcade, or that mall down the beach." Taylor suggested. Suddenly they heard a thump in one of the bedrooms. "I think I'd better tell them you guys are here, or they will be soo pissed at me." Beth said, laughing.
