"Vibes?" Lance asked with a laugh. Skyler and Justin shrugged. "Well, I'm leaving. I guess I'll see you guys later, ok?" he said, standing up. "OK," Justin said. "Bye, Lance," Skyler smiled. "See ya," Lance called as he walked out the door.
"Then go swimming," Joey said to Sheena, pushing her in the pool. "That was NOT funny," she said when she finally came up. "Yes it was," he said with a smile. She gave him an evil look. "You wanna see something funny?" "No.." he said, backing up. "Sure ya do..." she said, walking towards him. "No, I don't.." he said. She reached out and grabbed him legs, pulling him in the water on top of her. "That.." she said when he came up, "was funny!"
Mandi turned her head so she could see JC as he drove. Usually he was staring at the road and looked like he wasn't really thinking, but he seemed to be looking everywhere but the road tonight. His mind seemed to be lost in space somewhere. "JC? Are you ok?" she asked. "Yeah, I'm fine. Why?" he asked, turning a curve. "You just look different." she shrugged. "Good or bad?" "Well, good I guess." she said. He nodded, turning again. "So, how have you been?" he asked. "I've been good. It's been pretty boring here without Chris around, and Sheena and Skyler have been real drags without Justin and Joey." "Sheena? A drag? No way!" he said sarcastically. Mandi laughed, realizing for the first time just how much she'd missed JC.
