Maxina scratched her head as she watched everyone's reactions. "No, it's okay. It may be your idea but I took part too." She said to Kyann. "I'll take some of the blame too. Okay? I don't mind." Max said to him as she followed them out. Maxine was silent for a few minutes trying to think of something to do. "How about we go swimming or something? We can take a bottle of alcohol with us too or something else to drink. It will be fun." Max had suggested as she didn't want Katie to be sad. "I mean you already have your swimsuit on Katie. Kyann and I need to join the party." She smirked as she looked to Kyann.

Natalia watched the trio go before Sage and Q left. She looked to the remaining people, "How about we all go drink and make some dinner? I mean eventually we will be hungry." Natalia suggested, "Maybe you can impress me with your cooking skills." Natalia looked to Theo as she made her way out of the cave. She looked around as she waited for the other. Jonah sighed as Maxine left with Kyann and Katie. Hopefully they would get over this quick. He felt bad for making Katie feel bad. On the other hand the prank had worried them all. "Some food would be good." He looked to Natalia, "What's on the menu?" Jonah asked her.

Ooc: Thanks for the catch up! I've got an idea of how to bring my characters in but I was wondering, if is okay if my character Eve had a thing with Jonah in the past but they had a bit of a messy break up so there's a bit of tension between them now? But Eve still has a bit of a thing for him?

I'll post my skellies up tomorrow, I've gotta be up early for my voluntary placement :<

OOC: Sure! I love me some drama :D

Katie looked between Max and Kyann before being pulled into Kyann's arms. She chewed on her lip, burying her face in his chest and returning the hug. She allowed herself to walk out of the cave quietly. She looked over at Max and smiled ever so slightly. "I think that'll be fun Max," she said lightly. "I can wait out here while you guys go change into your swim wear." She glanced back at the people left in the cave and left her eyes on Jonah for a moment before looking back at the two she was walking with. "We should figure out what time we're doing the bonfire too since I sort of promised a performance with Jonah? If we're still doing that?"

This was not the way to start the summer should have started. But at least it wasn’t a bad thing, just a prank. Fer carefully made his way back out once it was clear that everyone was safe and the laughter died down. “Alright, no one is staying in this cave overnight.” He said “Even though I’m still sure that someone would find something in here to cuddle with” Sling smiled stepping out into the sunlight again as the others did. She stretched a bit, her shirt rising as she turned towards the water. This view was worth it. She secretly hoped that there was still an open room with an ocean view at the house.

“This is why you always come prepared” Sling smirked taking the cutoff shirt off, having her bikini top on already with it. She tucked her shirt into her back pocket letting it hang out. “That all sounds like a pretty good idea. Food, drinks, friends, perfect” Fer added in “Not to mention some music” He smiled looking back to Jonah… yeah, this summer might be hard.

Ooc: Awesome! :D I've added my skellies to a previous post. Hope that's alright! If not I can move them here~ ( [-viola] just gonna ping everyone ;w; )

Bic: "Tateeeee, hurry up! We're already late!" Eve called up the stairs to her older brother who was presumably still sleeping. The pair were meant to have been at their friend's dad's friend's beach house almost an hour ago and Eve was beginning to lose her patience with Tate. "I swear if I have to come up there.." "I'm just finishing up in the bathroom." Her brother retorted, his face appearing at the top of the stairs - tongue poking out like a child despite him being 25 years old. "I'll be down in a sec!" Eve sighed before plonking herself down on one of the dining table chairs and fiddling around with her Polaroid camera, checking that everything was in order for the long weeks ahead of her. She wanted to be able to take as many photos as possible as this was the last time that their friends would be able to hang out before they all went back to college and work. Tate charged down the stairs, his large black suitcase clunking along behind him. "Last couple of weeks of summer vacation left, let's go go go!" He yelled as he ruffled Eve's long dirty blonde hair before scooping up his car keys and rushing out the front door. He hopped into the driver's seat of his prized 1967 Chevrolet Impala and rolled down the windows letting ACDC's 'Highway To Hell' blare out into the neighbourhood. Eve rolled her eyes as she exited the house, making sure to lock the front door of their tiny flat. "Really?" She said as she dumped her duffel bags into the back of the car - no room in the boot because of Tate's huge suitcase. "This song again?" "Hey, remember my rule Eve: driver picks the music, shotgun shuts her cakehole." This earned him a withering look from his younger sister as she climbed into the passenger seat. But it was okay. They were finally on the road. Finally on the way to see their friends at a beach house. Eve sent Max a quick text saying that they were on their way and would be there soon.

--

They arrived at the beach house and found no one there. "Ugh see? None of our friends are here. They're already out having fun without us." Eve whined giving Tate a quick punch on the arm. "Relax Eve. They'll be back soon I'm sure. For now let's just sit tight and wait."

Sage stopped walking at the touch of Quinn’s hand on his arm. One look in to her blue eyes and he felt his muscles, that he hadn’t realized were still tense, begin to loosen. He rolled his shoulders a few times and sighed. “Look, right now I’m more annoyed than anything. I just wasn't in the mood for a stupid prank like that.” He explained, wanting her to know that he wasn’t as angry as he seemed to be. It had now quickly simmered down to a mild annoyance, and being in Quinn’s presence was quickly diminishing even that. “What does that even mean?” He asked, trying to repeat the nickname she gave him and butchering it horribly. He’d been wanting to know it’s meaning for what felt like forever and yet she always refused to tell him, always keeping playfully hushed about it. "Can you at least promise you'll tell me one day?" He made her promise at least that before draping his arms over her shoulders, a light smile brightening up his face. The idea of getting away had never sounded better. “Alright, let’s go. You know I can't resist the chance of alone time with you. Make sure to read me something good.”

Back at the cave with everyone else, Theo had already gotten over the prank at the mention of swimming, food and drinking. "Well, lucky me, it's a great thing I can cook." Theo winked at Nat, taking on the challenge of impressing her with his culinary skills. He actually wasn't a bad cook. His grandmother had made sure of that, so he didn't mind cooking. "Be prepared to be blown away by my..." He trailed off, not quite sure what he'd be making actually. It depended what he'd find in the kitchen. "...I'll leave it as a surprise actually, but I'm gonna need the grill fired up." He said as he left the cave with everyone else.

"Is that Tate and Eve I see?" Theo asked as he returned to the beach house. Sure enough, it was them. "Nice of you two to finally get here." He said with a grin. "You didn't miss much besides a trip to the cave where Kyann, Max and Kat pranked us and nearly sent us all to an early grave, but psht no big deal."

OOC: Don't want this to die so I'll post now I guess to keep it moving? Sorry it's short by the way.

BIC:

Katrina looked back at Theo and smiled slightly. "I'm looking forward to trying your food, dear," she said lightly. "Whatever it is." She let out a small giggle as they approached the beach house. Focusing on the door. Her smile widened as she saw Tate and Eve. She waved at them as she closed the distance. She gave them both a hug with a kiss on their cheek. "Hi! How was the drive up? I hope it was a safe drive?" she said before glancing over a Theo and a sheepish smile. "I'm still sorry about that, Theo. If it counts for anything, I was also scared before you guys showed up."

Sorry guys!!!! I unfortunately had my laptop give up on me. I will post as soon as I can! [-viola]

OOC: Take your time dearie! [-viola]

"Alright I'll go change. Bet you I can beat you." Maxine challenged Kyann before running past Tate and Eve. "Hi guys! I'll hug you once I win!" She gave them both a lopsided grin before heading up to her room to change into her vintage esque swimsuit. She then quickly ran back down the stairs to greet the siblings properly with pulling them each into a hug. "Hi! I'm so glad you guys made it." Max smiled at the two. Max didn't hold a grudge with Eve when her and Jonah split and wanted to remain friends with the girl.

Nat crossed her arms "I'll be the judge of that." She told Theo as she followed behind him, "I know what we can make the three do! Gather the firewood for the bonfire." Natalia smiled as she turned to her friends walking behind her. Though she looked over to Jonah at the mention of Eve. Maxine and her saw how upset he got after their messy break up. It took him a while before he started being himself again. "Hey guys!" Natalia smiled as she passed them to go into the house to grab a bottle of rum to take a shot before making her drink.

Jonah smiled "I can start playing some cover songs for you if you want." He winked at Fer as they neared the house. He noticed Natalia look back at him at the mention of Eve and he gave her a smile. He would be okay and be happy (or at least fake it). He had been dreading to seeing her but it was bound to happen at some point as the rest of the group were still friends with her. "So what kind of drinks shall we start making?" Jonah asked Sling before smiling at the two, "Glad to see that you guys could make it." He smiled at Tate and Eve before following Natalia inside and having a shot as well.

OOC: I'm going camping today and will be back probably 5-6 pm Subeta time. :) Sorry for the late notice btw.

[-viola] Eve's mood had turned rather sour upon arriving at the cabin. Their friends were probably out there having fun without them due to Tate's laziness. However, she soon perked up as the first of their friends, Theo, appeared in the distance. She rose to her feet, dragging Tate; who had been playing a game on his phone, with her. "Tate is responsible for that. He's so goddamn lazy!" She chided. "But it's so good to see you again Theo!" Tate grinned at his sister's annoyance and Theo's mention of a prank. He too loved to prank people, despite being 25 years old. "Sounds awesome my dude! Maybe we can pull some more pranks before this summer is over?"

Eve hugged Katrina tightly in greeting. "Hey Kat! Yeah the drive was pretty good, albeit Tate was playing some pretty lousy tunes." She quickly glanced at her brother and gave him a playful punch on the arm, which earned her a disgruntled snort and a punch back in return. "Nice to see ya Katrina!" Tate gave her a sideways grin as Eve gripped her shoulder and winced.

Both of the twins returned Max's friendly hug and greeted Natalia with equal friendliness. However, Eve shrunk back a little when she saw her ex Jonah. She should've expected him to be her but even still it was a bit of a shock to her system. She quietly said hi as her brother warmly greeted him by giving him a solid high five. Tate knew about Eve and Jonah's break up but Jonah was one of his best friends; he had no ill will with him regardless of what had happened. But he could feel Eve's nervousness so he didn't push her off when he felt her tiny hands gripping his arm tightly.

"So guys, what's the plan for now?" Tate questioned.
