Chapter 4

When I woke up I could see bits of sunlight coming in through my blinds. All of the guys were still asleep. I got up and carefully made my way around these guys. A piece of paper was on the floor by my door. I picked it up and looked at it. 'Huntington Beach End of Summer Surfing Competition. Locals only open to all ages. Men and women divisions.' My eyes widened this is exactly what we needed.

"Guys get up," I said.

"Why?" Chris whined.

"Surfing competition in two days, we need practice," I said and that's all I had to, they were all up scrambling up.

I went to my closet pulling out my black bikini and sunset colored board shorts. I went into the bathroom to change since they would change in my room right now. They keep board shorts here along with their boards.

"You guys done changing?" I asked after I changed. After I heard all four voices respond I walked back out.

They were all dressed and had their rash guards on. We went downstairs; mom was straightening the house up.

"I see you got the flyer. There was a stack of them at the gas station."

"Yep and now comes training time since we only have two days."

"Technically a day and a half, its 3 o'clock sweetie."

"Even less time let's roll," I said as all the guys went out.

"Is dad back yet?" I asked looking at mom.

"No, but he sent a message, Beach got the mail this morning. You're dads at work safe."

Upon hearing his name my beautiful tan cat came running. I scratched behind his ears, before going out with the guys.

"Did one of you grab the camera?" I asked

"Yep," Jeremy said holding it up.

/

"Guys get up we have 2 hours till the competition," I said.

Again they all scrambled up and into my closet to grab their stuff. After the almost three fights I was able to get my black bikini and black board shirts. For these competitions they give you different colored rash guards so they know how many points to award which person. After they all yelled dressed I came out of the bathroom. We all ran downstairs to say hi to mom before running out.

"What are they doing here?" I asked nicely as not to cause suspicion.

"Ohh Draco and Narcissa wanted to come and watch you all since you always talk about surfing," mom said giving me the 'don't kill Draco look or you're dead' look.

"Ohh sweet well were going to go register and get our rash guards. Then probably shop at the venues that are set up," I said as we all tried walking out the door.

"Does one of you boys have an extra pair of boards shorts Draco can borrow?" mom asked.

"NOT IT!" Andy yelled putting his finger to his nose.

Jeremy and Chris quickly did the same leaving Jake as the man to let Draco borrow a pair. Jake muttered come on and went up the stairs with Draco behind him. Mom and Narcissa got up I guess they were going to follow us. Jake same back down the stairs with Draco behind him.

"Here it's called sunscreen. I'm trying to save you all the pain in the world," I said tossing him the bottle we had in the living room.

The guys and I went out the back doors. People were all on the beach and luckily I looked like where we would actually be surfing at wasn't far from the house. WE grabbed our boards and board cases and walked down the beach till we found the registration table and walked up.

"Name please?" the women asked.

"Taylor Knightly," I said smiling nicely.

"Ok sweetie here's the form's to fill out. Bring that back and you'll get your shirt," she said to me.

I took a few steps to the side and sat on the beach. After I had everything filed out I took it back to her. She handed me a green rash guard and told me I was in heat 3. After the guys got finished we walked back towards the house trying to find mom. All four of them were in separate heats with different colors. Andy was blue, Jake was red, Jeremy was black and Chris was yellow.

"Mom!" I yelled as we caught up to them.

"Hey sweetie I see you all got registered," she said.

"Yeah girls are up first and I'm in heat 3," I said putting my board in the sand.

"You want money to buy stuff since you have a little bit?" mom asked I nodded.

Mom hand me one hundred dollars and told me to come back if I needed more. I have a problem buying sunglasses that are worth more than iPad's. We walked through all the little booths the guys buying things. I had to go back and get more money for the sunglasses I wanted amongst other things. When there was a half hour till we started we went back to where mom, Narcissa and Draco were.

"Dude did you steal my sex wax?" Chris asked looking a Jake.

"No why would I?" Jake asked looking suspicious.

"Give it here," he said taking it out of Jake's hand/

"What is that?" Draco asked.

"Mr. Zog's Sex Wax," I said waxing my board.

"What?" he asked.

"I think the translation is shag wax," Andy said making all of us laugh at Draco's expression.

"It's not used for that dipshit it's for surf boards," I said.

"And in Synyster Gates world guitar's," Jeremy said.

"Yes ohh mighty lead," I said words dripping with sarcasm.

"It's time to begin The Huntington Beach End of Summer Surfing competition. First of will be our ladies with heat 1. There are going 4 primary heats for men and women then 2 semi-final heats followed by the final rounds," the guy announced.

I'm ready.
