25 minutes later and we were all still at it. First, the losers fought (which was Cody and Kyle) and then the winner of that round (which was Cody) fought Sam who finally won, putting Kyle in last place. Then it was the winners of the first rounds turn. It was Zack and I's turn to go up against each other and I knew I was going to lose, but that didn't mean I couldn't get him back and have a little fun with it.

"Ready to lose?" Zack asked me as we stood getting ready to swim out. I just smirked at him as we started to make our way to the platform. Zack got up first and then pulled me up just like Sam had done the first time.

"How do you expect to win if you can't even get up here on your own?" he asked with raised eyebrows and humorous eyes.

"Ready, set, fight!" a voice rung out from the shore.

"I've got a few tricks up my sleeve." I said grinning at him as we circled around the bullseye. Zack lept forwards and tried to grab at my legs but I managed to slip away and push him back.

"Feisty." He smirked at me. He went for my legs again and I knew I wasn't getting out of it this time but I didn't really mind. He picked me up over his shoulder and I squealed.

"I told you you weren't going to win." He said laughing as he sent me sailing through the air and towards the water. I sucked in a deep breath before I plunged under the cold water. As soon as I could, I opened my eyes, swam over, ducked under the platform, and waited. I held my breath as the bubbles cleared and I could hear a muffled voice above me.

A few seconds later, another body plunged into the water and franticly tried to look around. I swam over to him as his head popped above the water again spinning around. I resurfaced behind him and tapped on his shoulder. He spun around and grabbed my shoulders with wide eyes.

He let out a sigh of relief as he realized it was me and wrapped his arms around my waist, burying his head in my neck. I wrapped my arms around his neck as I heard murmurs of his voice that was too hard to make out and felt the movements of his lips at the base of my neck.

"What?" I asked as he pulled away but still left his hands on my shoulders.

"I said you're an asshole." He repeated as I just smiled at him.

"Aw come on, would you really care that much?" I asked tapping his chest with raised eyebrows.

He reached up and flicked my forehead.

"Of course I would care! Why wouldn't I?" he asked exasperated. I did my best to shrug in the water but was just given a blank look by Zack. He lifted his hand and put it on the side of my face and looked into my eyes. His lips parted slightly as his steel eyes studied my light brown ones.

He held my gaze for a long second before slamming my head to the side in the water.

I struggled for a second before bursting above the water's surface gasping for air. I swept my hair from my face and the water from my eyes before finally being able to look over to Zack who was already swimming away backwards while laughing at me. I rolled my eyes and caught up to him so we could both swim back to the shore.

***********************

20 minutes later, we were finally done with the game. Zack ended up losing to Eric after almost a full 5 minutes of struggling. We had all laid our towels out together and sat down in a circle to eat lunch. I had Zack on my right and Eric on my left with Cody, Kyle, and Sammy on the other side of the towels.

They had packed some simple sandwiches, chips, and slices of watermelons to eat. Looking at them, you would have thought they hadn't eaten in days from the way they were practically inhaling their food.

"Slow down Cody, you're going to choke." I said amused.

"No I'm not." He said as he shoved more chips into his mouth.

I shook my head and said "I told you so." As he started to choke and cough a little. He flipped me off as he swallowed the rest of his food but slowed down a little non the less. It was already about 1:30 so we still had the rest of the day to hangout. Zack had told me that they would usually get dinner at their favorite restaurant out here and then drive home.

"How about a nice classic game of truth or dare?" Cody suggested with his mouth full. Everyone made sounds of agreement and nodded their heads or shrugged.

"We can use the bottle for it too." Eric said as he finished off his sandwich.

"I'll go grab it." I said as I jumped up and brushed the sand off my legs. I walked over and grabbed the bottle before making my way back. Kyle was rubbing his arm as Zack rolled his eyes at him.

"What happened?" I asked as I sat back down placed the bottle in the center of all of us on the container that the watermelon was in.

"Nothing." Zack said at the same time as Cody answered my question.

"Zack punched Kyle for staring at your ass." He said as Zack glared at him. I raised my eyebrows at Kyle and he just put his hands up and shrugged innocently.

"Sorry." He said with a small smile. I rolled my eyes and tuned back to the bottle and spun it. It landed on Zack so I turned to him.

"Zack, truth or dare?" I asked and he smirked at me. I swear his face was going to get stuck like that if he kept on.

"Dare." He said confidently. I thought for a second before smiling.

"I'll start off easy, declare your undying love for Cody while proposing." I said as he just smiled and stood up. He walked over to Cody and got down on one knee pretending to hold open a ring box.

"Cody, you have made me so happy over the past few years. You're one of my best friends and I would like to spend the rest of my life with you even though you ate all seventeen of my breadsticks that I stole from olive garden two weeks ago. Would you do me the honor of being my wife, lover, and best friend for the rest of our probably short lives?" Zack said dramatically.

"Yes my love!" Cody exclaimed while trying to throw his arms around Zack while everyone laughed as he got shoved away before Zack got up and walked back over to his seat by me. He shook his head In my direction with a smile before reaching forwards and spinning the empty bottle. It ended up landing on the bright blond-haired boy- aka Sammy.

"Sammy, truth or dare?" Zack asked and once again the word dare was said confidently. "Take a handful of sand and pour it in your mouth." Zack said as Sammy whined before saying a quick fine. He scooped up some sand and looked at it for a few seconds before shoving it all in his mouth. He made a face and spit it all out while gagging and coughing. He took his hands and rubbed them on his tongue trying to get it all off before he grabbed his water and swished it around in his mouth and spit everything out again.

"Not cool dude, not cool." He said spitting in the sand again. After a minute of him suffering, he grabbed the bottle and spun it. It twisted round and round before it stopped on Cody. He huffed but said dare before looking at Sammy waiting for his fate.

"Stay completely still for 10 seconds." Sam said grinning.

"Really? That's all you've got? Easy." Cody said as he put his hands behind his head like he was modeling and froze. Right as he was still, Sam picked up a full water bottle and whipped it at Cody's crotch. He yelled out and his hands shot down holding his poor man hood. I gasped while putting my hands to my mouth as everyone just laughed. Cody rolled over on his side in a ball groaning.

"You dickhead." He wheezed out as everyone's laughter got louder.

5 minutes of pain later, Cody was still holding his crotch with one hand as he spun the bottle with the other. It spun around few times before landing on me.

Yippe.

"Truth or dare Zoe?" he asked in a sing song voice.

"Nuh uh, nope. I've seen what you guys will do to each other, truth." I said stubbornly crossing my arms.

"Aw, come on. Chicken?" Kyle asked with a raised eyebrow as everybody started to make chicken noises. I rolled my eyes and sighed.

"Fine, dare." I gave in knowing they would never drop it if I stuck with truth. I could have put up more of a fight but it would be a waste of time and effort. Cody smirked while tapping his chin and thinking.

"Hmmmm, why don't you..." he trailed off trying to come up with something. "Sit on Zack's lap for the rest of the game." He said smiling mischievously. My jaw dropped.

"The rest of the game?" I asked looking over to Zack who just winked and patted his lap.

"Fine, 2 rounds." Cody compromised. I sighed before looking at Zack again.

"Come on kitten." He said and motioned me over.

I scooted over grudgingly and squeaked as Zack grabbed my hips and pulled me onto his criss-crossed legs. I looked back at his face that had a shit eating grin plastered on it.

I shook my head and leaned forward to spin the bottle again. I spun it and sat back again with Zacks chest pressed against my back. I could feel his steady breathing and warm hands resting on my hips still. The bottle slowed and land on Kyle.

"Truth or dare kyle?" I asked trying to tear my mind away from my current position pressed up against the boy that hadn't even known I had existed two weeks before.

"Dare." He said. Do these boys ever learn? Apparently not. I felt Zack press me further into him as he dipped his head down to my ear.

"Have him go streaking after we finish this game." he whispered and I smirked.

"Hey, that's not fair!" Kyle yelled pointing at us. I giggled as everybody just ignored him as they waited for his dare.

"After this game, you have to go run from here to the lake." I said smiling innocently.

"Really? That's lame, I would have expected better if Zack help-' he got cut off by my voice.

"Naked."

His jaw dropped as everybody started to snicker. My body moved as Zack laughed. His grip tightened and slipped around my stomach as he leaned forward laughing harder as Kyle just held his 'are you serious' face. Zack linked his one hand around his other wrist and left his arms draped around my stomach.

"If you wanted to see me naked you could have just asked." Kyle snapped back to his usual cocky and flirty self.

"You're forgetting Zack was the one who technically came up with it." I joked laughing a little.

"Oh, well he's already seen me naked, now he's just getting greedy." He winked at the both of us and I could feel Zack shake his head.

"Just spin the damn bottle Kyle." His voice rung out next to my head. The bottle spun around and around once again before landing on Sam again.

"Nope, I'm not taking the chance to be forced to eat sand again, truth." he said before he was even asked truth or dare. Kyle sighed but thought for a second.

"Tell the story about that one time at school." Kyle said smirking at Sammy.

"What- what time?" Sam stuttered with a oink tinge to his cheeks.

"You know what time." Kyle said slowly.

"I woke up late and forgot to bring something to school..." Sam said looking up pleadingly, but Kyle wouldn't accept it.

"And what exactly did you forget?" he asked innocently. Sam mumbled but it was too quiet to hear.

"What was that?"

More mumbles.

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I cant hear you." Kyle said putting his hand up to his ear.

"My pants! I forgot my pants okay?" Sam exclaimed as everyone including me busted out laughing. I leaned back covering my mouth with my hand trying to quiet myself. Zack's chest rumbled as his smooth laugh rung out. Sammy huffed and just reached over to spin again. It finally landed on Eric and everyone quieted as Sam asked Eric the question that kept repeating.

"Dare." Eric said looking at Sam expectantly. Sam grinned before leaning over and whispering in Eric's ear. Eric smiled before shaking his head slightly.

"Okay." He said and looked over to Kyle.

"I don't know about you guys but I think its time for this game to end and Kyle to get naked." Cody said probably catching on and grinning. Kyle sighed before standing up and looking over towards me and smiling with an odd look on his face.

"Hasn't it been more than two rounds?" he asked with a bright smile. I felt my face heat up as I tried to scoot away but Zack's arms were still locked around me.

"Huh, guess it has. If I didn't know any better I would say you were enjoying this." Zack said close to my ear.

"Yeah right, good thing you know better." I said as I tried to push his arms away, but he wouldn't budge. The rest of the boys laughed a little as they watched me struggle.

"Let go." I said as I pushed my hands against his arm and back further into his chest. He chuckled before sighing.

"Well if you insist." he said as he let go. I scooted off his lap and turned around while still sitting in the sand looking at him skeptically.

"What?" he asked with innocent eyes.

"What are you going to do?" I asked narrowing my eyes as his face.

"Whatever do you mean?" he asked putting his hand on his chest over his heart.

"That was too easy, what are you planning?" I asked scooting further away.

"Don't you trust me?" he asked feigning hurt.

"Nope." I said simply.

"Well that's probably a smart decision, because there's a spider on your shoulder." He said.

I screamed a little as I hit away at my hair and shoulder before looking at the boy who was trying to hold his laughter in.

"Just kidding." He said as he grinned at me. I laughed as I grabbed the closest thing by me which was a pair of swim shorts and threw it at him. Wait what?

I looked over to my side seeing Kyle who ass naked but thankfully covering his junk. My eyes widened as he winked at me and took off sprinting towards the water. I covered my mouth with my hand as I tried to not laugh but it was pretty impossible with everybody cracking up around me. Hands came from behind me and covered my eyes and I tried to swat them away in laughter.

"Shield your eyes, kitten." Zack said as I pushed his hands away seeing Kyle take his last few steps before diving into the water.

"Hurry!" Sam yelled as Eric grabbed Kyles shorts and ran half way over to the water before waving the shorts over his head.

"Come and get 'em!" he yelled before a string of curse words could be heard from the water. My eyes were covered again right as Kyle ran out of the water and started chasing after his shorts.

Sigh.

Will they ever learn?
