Nate was somewhat relieved when both girls said they wanted to walk. Now I can actually talk to them without having to drive the car. And it is a very nice day out. He slowly started to walk where Jason was pointing to his car. He lead the rest of the group, the two girls, over to the car and waited while Jason started to put his stuff away and get some clothes out. "Well, I'd have to agree with you, its pretty nice out here. I hope all the days will be like this, but I'll never want to leave the beach. I'm actually pretty glad that I was forced into coming here." He gave them both a wink and added, "Yes, I'm definitely glad I'm here." Slightly blushing, because he didn't know what had come over him to make such a comment that wasn't like himself. Making sure he had everything, he patted both of his pockets. Shit, where is your wallet. Don't want to forget that, eh? He looked at both girls.
"Listen, I forgot my wallet, I'll be right back." He did sort of a half jog back to his car to get his wallet. Checking to make sure he had enough money, he locked his car up and went back to see that Jason was done with getting dressed. "So are we ready to go?" All three of them nodded so Nate started to lead them to the cement walkway. He noticed that there was an awkward silence between them so he tried to think of some good subjects. Music was the first thing that popped into his head, because he played guitar. "So, what type of music do you girls and guy like? I personally like alternative and some rock. Country is pretty good. But I like it just because of the acoustic feeling." He thought back to when he learned how to play some Rascal Flatt's song on his guitar because that was his mother's favorite song. Snapping out of his thoughts, he turned to the other three, waiting to hear what they had to say.

Jason walked over to his car, everyone following behind. He basically threw his surf board into the backseat of the car and he grabbed his clothes that were all over the backseat. He quickly threw on his shorts, followed by his shirt and he just grabbed his shoes. He was going to put them on when they started walking. Jason locked his car and put his keys in his pocket. Making sure he had his wallet before he walked off, he turned around to face his group. "I'm so glad you invited me to hang out today, Nate." Jason said, flashing a smile to the girls.
Nate ran to his car to get his wallet and Jason decided to slip his shoes on now. When Nate asked if they were ready, Jason nodded. They began walking toward the little cabanna-type thing where they were going to eat lunch. Nate asked what kind of music they liked. Jason thought about it for only a quick second and replied. "Well, I'm totally for rock n' roll. But I will listen to pop, some rap, and country. All that good stuff." Jason said, shoving his hands in his pockets, shifting his weight from side to side as he walked along with Nate, Kaleena and Ashlee.

Kaleena smiled as Ashlee winked. She was really starting to like this girl. They started to head over toward Jasons car. Nate said something about being really happy that he moved here, giving the two girls a wink. Kaleena smiled as Nate blushed. Jason was getting his clothes on when Nate remembered he forgot his wallet. He jogged over to his car to get it. Kaleena stood there looking back and forth between Nate and Jason. How lucky me and Ashlee are to have these to guys here with us. Nate led them to the sidewalk and started to walk to the resturaunt. After Jason answered Nates question Kaleena decided it was her turn. "I'm very picky with my music. I really only like pop and rock & roll. Thats kind of what my parents raised me with." She said putting her sunglasses on her face. She turned to Ashlee to indicate that it was her turn to answer.

Ashlee laughed when Kaleena responded to her wink. Hearing Nate's statement made her smile, her cheeks turning a light flattering pink. She then heard Jason say close to the same thing, which made her smile grow a little wider. She listened to them reply to Nate's topic of music and she decided it was now her turn. "Well, I like pretty much the same things. Hip-hop, rock, and some atlernative is pretty much what I stick with. Country drives me up a wall." she said with a light laugh, walking beside Kaleena. She looked down at her feet, noticing that they were slighty sunburnt.
'Ow ow ow ow." she thought each time the rubber shoe smacked the back of her heals. "My feet hurt. Leeeeena, carry me!" she laughed, jumping on her friends back. "To the shack we go!" she said, pointing towards the resteraunt. She giggled as she wiggled her toes. "Run, Forest, run!" she laughed once more, playing with Leena's pony-tail.

Nate laughed when Ashlee said that country music sucked. "Thats funny, Ashlee. You look just like the kind of girl that would like country music." He listened to everyone else's take on music and wasn't surprised. Girls usually were picky with music, and Jason's response was just what he suspected. Well, what else can we talk about? We still have about a hundred feet to go. Hmm, this reminds me of old times, before me and Bridget were forced to move. I really do like it here, and it looks like I've made some new friends that are absolutely crazy. Just then, he was snapped out of his thoughts by Ashlee jumping on Kaleena's back. "Oh no you don't. I bet me and Jason can beat you to the shack. Last one there is a rotten egg." Nate jumped on Jason's back as he started to laugh. "Yeehaaww. Ride 'em cowboy. Lets get this show on the road." He pretended to hit Jason as he started to run and catch up with those girls.
He stuck his tongue out at Ashlee as they were almost dead even. She seemed to be holding on for dear life and they were slowly starting to pull ahead. Nate noticed that Jason was panting so he slid off of his back and leaned down for Nate to pick him up. "C'mon man, I'm not losing this race just because you are tired. I know it's hot, but these girls are hotter. Lets go!" Even though people were snapping their heads in the direction of the noise, Nate was just too caught up in the moment. They were losing precious time and Jason needed to make his decision right now. "C'mon man, are you coming or not?"

Jason listened to everyone list off what they liked to listen to. "Hah. Well, we all have similar tastes in music." Jason said. It suddenly became quiet since there was nothing else to talk about. Suddenly he saw Ashlee jump on Kaleena's back, and they were running. Jason thought Nate would just start running and Jason would have to catch up. But, no. Nate jumped right onto Jason's back. A slight 'oof' came out of his mouth as the sudden weight on his back startled him. The wind was basically knocked out of him, so it was hard for him to run. Nate was yelling something that sounds like you would yell at a horse or see in an old western. "I'm not your damn horse, Nate!" Jason yelled, through laughter as he began running.
As they finally caught up to Ashlee and Kaleena, Jason began losing his breath since Nate was a total deadweight. He had done a ton of conditioning for hockey but none where he was carrying about an extra 150 pounds with him. He was super tired and he began panting. He felt Nate slide off of his back and he decided to switch. Jason took a few seconds to decide but when Nate said the comment about the girls, it didn't take him any longer to decide. He took a running start and jumped on Nate's back. "Let's go, man!" He yelled, looking to see how far ahead the girls were. Seeing that they weren't THAT far ahead, he figured the might be able to win.

Kaleena was happy that Ashlee was into the same music. If they became really good friends, they would need to like the same music. All of a sudden Ashlee complains about her feet hurting. She jumps onto Kaleena's back. She lets out a little grunt, "What the hell are you doing?"She said laughing. Kaleena started to run toward the shack, with Ashlee wiggling her toes on Kaleena's back.
Kaleena looked back to see what the guys were doing. She saw Nate jump on Jason's back and Jason start running toward them. SO now it's a race huh. She started to run faster toward the shack. Ashlee had started to fall off her back so she had to slow down to get her re situated. She looked back at the guys again to see that Jason was now on Nate's back. The guys caught up to the girls. Kaleena looked over and stuck her tongue out at Nate and Jason, then sped off in full sprint. When she reached the restaurant, she looked over to see that the two guys were right next to her and Ashlee. She figured they had tied. "Nice race guys." She said turning to Nate and Jason. "Why don't we sit down and get something to eat." She said still trying to catch her breath.

Ashlee was laughing hard as they got to the resteraunt, her cheeks lightly pink. When Kaleena came to a stop, Ashlee slid off of her back and adjusted her clothing. See looked over to the boys and laughed again, seeing that they were out of breath as well. " Man, you guys are lucky. To have tied with us? Pssht." she said jokingly with another laugh. " Now I'm like, super hungry from laughing so hard." she said, pushing her sunglasses up higher on her nose. ooc| Here some links of the place. www.orbitz.com/hotelimages/997/4997/81434/REST0-20060307-013217-195.jpgwww.ila-chateau.com/vahine/pic26.jpgbic| Ashlee led them into the resturaunt, a waitress greeting them at the door. " Indoor or outdoor?" the girl asked the group, looking from face to face. " Uh.." Ashlee looked back at everyone. " I kinda want to eat outside.." Ashlee suggested and before the waitress let the others speak, she was already off to the outdoor patio. " Oh! Whoops." Ashlee said, spining around and trying to catch up with the girl. She led them to a shaded picnic table (first link). Ashlee smiled and sat down at the seat closest to her.

Nate was dying as he sprinted to catch up to the girls. "All..moost.. there. We..are...going...tooo.....winn." He barely managed to say, Jason felt like he weighed a ton and a half. Finally, he reached the cool doors, being tied with the girls. Nate shrugged off their remarks and opened the door. He received a blast of cool air as a waitress came up to them. She asked them whether they wanted a table inside or out, and before he could even say anything, the waitress was off. He had to jog to keep up with her as she set them in a shady table. "Ahh, it feels so good to sit down and relax. Order anything you want, its on me." He quickly scanned the menus and decided to order a strawberry pineapple smoothie and he looked up to see the waitress smiling at him. He waited for the rest of the girls to order their drinks and then put down the menu.
"So, are you guys enjoying Cali. I love it here. I used to live in Florida, near Key West. That's where me and my mom usually went to surf, before...well before we had to move. It was so beautiful out there, but I think its a lot better here." He sat back and put his arms behind his head, spreading his legs out. He kicked someone and laughed. "Oops, I'm sorry whoever I just kicked." He looked around to see someone in pain when the waitress came back with their drinks. He took a quick sip of his, savoring the frosty coolness.

Jason bobbed up and down as Nate carried him, racing to beat the girls to the little resturaunt. As they finally reached it, it turns out that they had tied. Jason slid off of Nate's back and landed on his feet. He fell off balance and threw his arms out, frantically waving to keep himself from falling. "Haha. Good race guys." Jason said with a quick laugh, as he regained his balance. He walked over to the entrance with everyone else. He didn't really care where they sat, he just wanted to sit and talk. That's one thing he really loved doing, talking. Jason followed behind everyone as the waitress led them to their table. They all sat down in a shaded area, the heat being reduced by the big umbrella attached to their table. "I'll pay half of the bill, Nate. Since I'm still going to order something, but small." Jason said to Nate when he said order anything. When the waitress asked for drinks, Jason ordered a mango-banana smootie to start. Jason scanned the menu for something small to eat, but couldn't find anything just yet. He set the menu down to talk to everyone else.
"I've been enjoying Cali, for the few year's I've lived here. Well, I used to live in San Diego before I moved here." He said, looking around the table waiting for other answers. Jason waited for the drinks to come, while listening to everyone else talk. Jason suddenly heard Nate laughing at something. He looked around to see who Nate had kicked but couldn't tell at that moment. Jason looked around and saw the waitress approach with the drinks. When the drinks came Jason took a huge sip of his smoothie and then ate the pineapple slice that was resting on the side of the cup.

Kaleena followed the waitress as she led the group to a small table outside. She loves being outdoors. Nate offered to pay for everything, which was good for Kaleena, because she only brought about two bucks. She scanned the menu to find something to drink. She decided to order a chocolate milkshake. For some reason it sounded really good. She listened as Nate and Jason explained whether or not they liked Cali. Then all of a sudden she felt a sharp pain in her right shin. She let out a little Oof. and her eyes started to water. She looked over at Nate who said he was sorry. The waitress came back with their drinks and Kaleena was rubbing her shin. "I'll come back in a bit to get your food oders." The waitress said. After she left Kaleena answered Nates question. "I love it here. It's a lot like Hawaii, where I'm from. The only difference is that in Hawaii the water is a lot bluer. Since it's like in the middle of no where." She listened to the next person answering, taking a big drink of her shake.

Ashlee adjusted herself in her seat, removing her tote bag from her shoulder and setting it beside her on the chair. Since she was in the shade now, it didn't make much sense for her to keep her sunglasses on. So she took them off, revealing her brown and green flecked eyes for the first time today. She set her sunglasses in her tote bag and listened to them chat. She looked up from her belongings to clearly see everyone's untinted face. She smiled, the boys looking even cute now without the sepia color added to their skin and clothes. The waitress came around to her to ask her what she wanted to drink. "I'll have a strawberry banana smoothie. Thanks." she smiled at her and then returned her attension back to the group.
"I'm here from New York. So, I've been raised as a city girl who just mostly spent her time inside the city. The only other state that I've really been to besides Cali and New York is Florida for spring break. I don't get to travel much because I've always got something going on." she replied, hoping they didn't think she was a dork or anything. The waitress came back with thier drinks surprisingly fast and handed each of them what they ordered. She took a drink through her thick straw, a blast of tropical tastes sending her tounge to paradise. "Oh my god, this is so good. Someone taste it." she said, pushing it out to the center of the table, waiting for someone to grab for it. She looked at Kaleena and from the expression on her face, it looked like she was enjoying her drink as well.

Listening to where others were from, he was surprised to hear that Kaleena was from Hawaii. I mean, she looked pretty tan and her name was tropical, but he expected somewhere in the Bahamas. "In Hawaii, thats pretty cool. I've only been there once, and that was when I was around 13 years old. I really loved it there. I met this girl there, around the beach. I think it was the first time I kissed a girl." He was so lost in old memories, he forgot he was saying this out loud. He took a minute to register what he said, then started to blush. "Sorry for the trip down memory lane. I would like to go back there, though." He then quickly looked down at the menu and started to scan over it. Hmm, mozzarella sticks sound good. The ribs also sound really good, with fries. Mmmmmm. He looked up and saw everyone else looking down, trying to figure out what they wanted. The waitress then walked up.
"Hey, I'll have Mozzarella sticks to start out, with the marinara dipping sauce and for my main meal, I'll have the half a rack of ribs and fries on the side, thanks." He handed his menu over to the girl, waiting for the rest of the group to say their order. He picked up his smoothie, taking a good sized drink from it, and let the cool, tropical taste wash down his throat. He then took the pineapple that was hanging over the side and took a bite from it. The juice leaked down his chin and he laughed, taking a napkin and wiped it off. "I hate it when fruit does that."

"Hawaii, New York. Hah. We have a diverse set of people here." Jason said with a quick smile. Jason listened to Ashlee say something about New York. "I didn't do much traveling either when I was younger. I've been to Illinois and California. That's it. And wow, big shocker, those were the two states I've lived in!" Jason said with a very sarcastic tone to his voice. He laughed and quickly stopped as he heard Nate rant on about some old memory from his trip to Hawaii. "Heh, it's fine, Nate. Everyone does it once in awhile." Jason said, doing it himself, just not out loud. Referring back to the worst night of his life. He quickly shook the thought and opened the menu once more. He looked over and decided on the Tuscan Shrimp salad. He would get an order of cheese sticks as well.
He waited for Nate to order and then began reciting his order. "I'll take an order of Mozz sticks too. And I would also like the Tuscan Shrimp Salad." Jason said, handing his menu to the waitress. He suddenly became thirsty. He picked up his drink like everyone else and took a huge sip. Laughing at Nate and the fruit. "This smoothie is amazing too, have a sip of mine." Jason said, setting his in the middle of the table and picked up Ashlee's. Taking a sip he found out how good it really was. "Wow, that is really good." Jason said, setting Ashlee's drink back into the middle of the table.

Kaleena looked at her menu, trying to figure out what she wanted to eat. She was easily distracted as everyone was talking. She thought it was interesting that no ones really traveld. She was in the same boat as Jason and Ashlee. Her parents loved to just stay in Hawaii. They never really wanted to travel. She laughed a little to her self when Nate spilt a little bit of drink on his chin. When the waiter asked her what she wanted she quickly looked down at her menu to find something.
Ummm....I'll have the Chicken Fajita Rollup, but instead of fries could I get garlic mashed potatoes." She gave the waitress her menu and waited for Ashlee to complete her order. She took another huge sip of her chocolate shake. Before the waitress could walk away, "Excuse me, could I also have a glass of water." She turned back to the group.
