Chapter 1: Pool Party
The phone rang throughout the Andrews household. "Could somebody get that?" Lysette yelled. No one answered. She sighed, capped her bottle of silver nail polish and walked on her heels to the hallway phone out side her room. "Hello?" She asked
"Hey, Liss! What's up?" Her best friend, Nick asked.
"Nothin', Carter. How about you?"
"Uh, I was wondering if you wanted to come over for a while."
"I'm not doing anything, so, yeah. Sure. Need me to bring anything?"
"Swimsuit? Michelle is coming over. So is Trey."
"Trey?"
"You met him last summer? Trey Cofman?"
"Oh yeah, yeah. Okay. I'll be there as soon as my paint job dries."
"Man. Girls and nail polish. Okay. See ya soon."
"Bye." Lysette hung up and walked back to her room on her heels. She yanked her blue gingham and daisy halter two-piece out of a drawer and changed into it. Then she pulled a pair of frayed jean cutoffs on over her suit. She slipped her feet into a pair of thong flip flops, hopped in 4x4 Tracker and headed over to Nick's.
5 Minutes later, she was walking through Nick's house to the pool, out back. She heard Nick talking to another guy she suspected was Trey."Hey, guys!" She called.
Trey nudged Nick."She a dancer?"
"Yeah. 10 years. How can you tell?"
"The way she carries herself. Ballet?"
"Ballet,hip hop,tap,jazz. When she's not working, she's dancing. She's auditioning for TBDC,soon."
"TBDC?"
"Tampa Bay Dance Company."
"Really?! How old is she?"
"18. You wanna meet her?"
"Of course!"
They walked over to her."Hey,Liss. What's up?"
"Nothing. I told you that already."She looked at Trey."Trey?"
"Lysette?"
"The one and only."She smiled and extended her hand."Nice to meet you." They shook hands.
"Nick tells me your a dancer,"Trey said.
"Well, actually, he figured it out himself,"Nick said.
"Smart,"Lysette stated.
"Hey, I try."Trey smiled.
"Where's Michelle?" Lysette asked.
"Hey!" A perky female voice called.
Liss rolled her eyes."Hi, Michelle!" Michelle came over and air kissed Lysette's cheeks. Part of Beverly Hills was still instilled in Melissa. It drove Lysette nuts. Then Michelle went over to Nick and they began kissing each other. They were in their own world. Trey and Lysette both had the same idea."1,2,3,"Lysette mouthed.
SPLASH!!! Nick and Michelle fell into the pool. Trey and Liss laughed hysterically. Nick hoisted himself out of the pool and helped Michelle out. He handed Michelle her beach towel. "Very uncool, guys," Nick.
"Very funny, though," Trey managed to say through tears of laughter.
Nick walked over to Lysette, picked her up and tossed her into the pool. She came up and tread water, smiling. Both Trey and Nick went over and offered a hand out of the pool. She took them and yanked them in. Michelle went to the pool's edge. Nick and Trey grabbed her ankles and pulled her in as well.
They swam all day. By dusk, Trey asked Lysette out for dinner the next night.
