After our small little lunch. I headed back into my room and grabbed my suitcase. I opened it up and started rummaging through my clothes looking for my one piece. I finally found it. My one piece is a plain red, with a small cross. I used to be a lifeguard so this was my uniform but it was comfortable and it still fit, so I still used it. I closed the blinds and quickly put on the suit. When I was done I grabbed one of my Nike Fits and slipped it on. I never really liked going out in my bathing suit without some pants. Even if its a bikini I feel to exposed so I always swim with some shorts on. Always.

I grabbed a towel and slipped on my flip flops. I made a quick braid so my hair wouldn't go in my eyes while I swam. When I was done I walked out into the hallway and to Suzie's door. I lightly tapped on the door.

"Suzie you in there?" I asked.

"Yeah give me sec," She replied. I put my back to the wall and leaned on it, waiting for Suzie. A minute later she came out.

My little sister had her red, white, and blue bikini. Her black curls flowing around her face. She had flip flops on and had her Minnie Mouse towel around her neck. But what made me laugh was that she had a pair of my old shades on. The shades were pitch black and so you couldn't see her eyes.

I laughed, "You trying out my old shades?"

"What do you think? Don't I look gooooood?" She made the glasses bounce up and down on her nose, which only made me laugh harder.

"Whatever you need to hear Sue."

She grinned and I put my hand on her shoulder guiding her out of her room.

"Come on Sue lets go swimming," I said as we walked down the stairs.

"The guys are already outside," Lilly said from the counter.

"Thanks Lilly," Suzie replied as she opened the door and headed out. I smiled at Lilly and closed the door behind me.

The air was hot and the sky was a cloudless blue. The perfect day for a swim. I saw the guys sitting around, I quickened my pace to catch up to Suzie and as we walked I whispered something in her ear.

"Oh my god," Suzie said with a giggle.

"You in?" I asked as we got closer to the guys.

She nodded, "Yeah I'm in."

"That's my baby sister," I high fived her and she ran off to the other side of the house. I watched her go with a smile.

"Where's Suzie going?" I turned to see the guys were all standing around me.

I shurgged, "Who knows where that child goes?"

I noticed that they were all staring at me. I stared at them back.

The guys were all wearing their swim truncks and I couldn't help but notice that the guys were built. Cole and Shawn had some nice six packs. And their biceps were pretty good looking too, decently sized. But Blake was even more built. His biceps were way bigger than decently sized like Cole's and Shawn's. Then my eyes fell on Blake's eight pack.

Blake smirked, "Like what you see?"

"Huh?" I asked dumbly, looking up at him.

Blake just smirked again.

"Ohhhhhhhh you think I was staring at you," I laughed and the guys all stared at me in confusion, "There's a stick bug on you."

I pointed out the small stick bug that was climbing on Blake's stomach, he looked down and swapped it away. I walked to the shore, laughing.

I could just imagine their faces, all red with anger. That made me chuckle. I got my towel spred it out and I layed on it, playing around with my phone.

That's when I got ambused.

Blake grabbed my arms and Cole grabbed one of my legs while Shawn grabbed the other. They all picked me up as I screamed and kicked.

"Let go of me you jerks!" I yelled.

"No way bitch, its about time you have a bath." Blake said. This was actually the first time I saw all of them smiling. Well other than at school when they are with friends.

God where is Suzie! The guys started walking towards the dock. My eyes widened and I tried to kick and move but damn were they strong.

"Suzie! Sue!" I yelled.

The guys all laughed and carried me the edge of the dock. They started to swing me back and forth.

"One...Two..." They started to count down.

"LET GO OF MY SISTER!" I heard Suzie yell from the other side of the dock. I caught a glimpse of her, she had her hands behind her back.

"Sure thing cutie," Shawn said.

"Three!" Cole shouted. They swung me around one more time and let me go into the water.

I screamed as I hit the water. It wasn't as cold as I thought it would be. I quickly resurfaced and Suzie had a water gun out and was shooting the guys. In the gun I could see the shadow of the water, but I also saw the small clear shadows of ice cubes.

"Mother F! It's ice cold!" Shawn yelled as he was squirted with water. I quickly swam to the shore and ran behind Suzie.

"Holy shit!" Blake yelled.

They started to move around trying to avoid the water.

I whispered in Suzie's ear, "Where are the balloons?"

"Near the barbecue pit," She said laughing. Obviously enjoying torturing the guys with nice cold water.

I ran to the barbecue pit and found the basket of water balloons. They also contained ice cold water. I smiled and grabbed some balloons. As I ran back, I reliezed Suzie was running low on water.

Suzie pumped more water but it didn't reach the guys. Her eyes widened, "Uh-oh." She muttered and dropped the gun. She ran behind me and the guys advanced. I hid the balloons behind me.

"Oh we're getting you now," Cole said as his teeth chattered.

"Don't take another step," I warned.

Blake laughed, "Your out of ammo, what you gonna do now bitch?"

He took a step.

I smiled, "I warned you."

Suzie grabbed one of the balloons in my hand and we both fired at the guys. The balloon I threw hit Blake smack in the chest. While Suzie took care of Cole. I didn't know where Shawn was, and thats when I felt a balloon hit my back.

"Ahhhhh cold!!!!" I said arching my back so the water wouldn't go in my bathing suit.

Cole and Blake ran to Shawn while me and Suzie stood in shock. I grabbed Suzie's arm we started to run.

The guys all yelled a war cry and ran after us. Me and Suzie were laughing. I looked over for a second and saw that the guys were laughing as well. I turned back and me and Suzie ran faster.

"Where did you put the guns?" I asked as we ran.

Suzie grinned and pointed to the other side of the house. We ran as fast as we could with the guys behind us, we turned into the corner of the house. I grabbbed a random water gun and Suzie had two pistol water guns, one in each hand. I heard the guys and we both jumped out pumping the water at them.

Thats when I reliezed two things. One, I was having a blast. And two, the guys weren't alone. Lilly stood there with them.

She shrieked and was breathing hard, from the cold.

"Tori, Suzie." Was all she manged to say but then she added, "Its on!"

She grabbed one of the balloons in Shawn' s hand and threw it at us. Me and Suzie ran off to the front of the house. But then it got worse, we collided with our dad.

"What the heck?" He asked. Then a water balloon hit his chest, "Shhhhh- COLD!"

Lilly stood there laughing with the guys.

My dad took a gun from Suzie and started the squirt it at Lilly and the boys.

"The family water war is on!" I yelled.

The guys let out a war cry and my dad hollered back.

As me, Suzie, and my dad squirted the guys and Lilly, they threw balloons at us. Shawn had he whole basket, which had a good deal of balloons.

"Dad?" I said to him laughing.

"Yeah?" He laughed back.

"If we retreat now we can go to the mother load." I said.

"Daddy I'm running low," Suzie said.

"Tori lead the way," Dad said.

We pointed our guns down and Suzie and dad followed me as we ran to the side of the house. We heard the guys and Lilly yell in victory.

"Come on Tori! " Dad said.

I grabbed the hose and handed it to dad, then Suzie grabbbed a bucket that we hid. It contained water guns and more water balloons.

Wondering where we got everything? Well when I was like eight me and Mark had a water war with his family and mine. We were outside in his backyard all day with the water war. So when I was getting ready to come to the lake I decided to sneak the Home Depot box that read: summer fun, water guns, and balloons. And boy am I glad I did.

Me, dad, and Suzie grabbed the water balloon straps. You put the strap around you and it holds fifteen water balloons. Kind of like a grenade thing. They were fully loaded and we were ready for attack.

Suzie smiled and pulled out some war paint, she spread some on her face and me and dad laughed. I never thought a nine year old could l look so scary. We grabbed the water guns and dad grabbed the hose.

"Lets go," Suzie said.

We ran out all yelling, "CHARGE!"

The guys and Lilly were sitting calmly around the picnic table and they all screamed when we started pelting them with water balloons. My dad turned on the hose and sprayed the water at them. Me and Suzie pumped water at them and every once in while we'd throw a water balloon.

When did this fight get so crazy?

I laughed as the guys threw balloons at us. One hit my stomach and one hit Suzie in the shoulder.

My dad got ambushed by Lilly and Cole. He lost the hose and ran away as Lilly and Cole started to poor the water on him.

Suzie came to my side, "Tori remember what I did at Mark's pool party? And now I'm not allowed to go?"

I looked down at her, pumping water at Shawn, "Your not seriously thinking about..."

She smiled, "I think it'll be fine, they have boxers under, right?"

"Suzie don't-" I started but it was to late. Suzie ran off.

Oh no, I thought.

I got hit in the back of my head with a water balloon. I turned and saw Blake smirking. Then I saw Suzie behind him.

"Blake move!" I yelled but Suzie was already there. I saw her pull his pants down but I turned my head, trying hard not to laugh.

"What the hell?!" Blake yelled.

I laughed but still had my back at him. Suzie ran to me laughing.

"Suzie how could you do that?!" I yelled at her.

"It easy you just pull on their pants," Suzie said with a giggle. I stared at her, "Don't worry he had boxers under them."

Then two arms grabbed Suzie, she screamed. Blake lifted her over his head, "You little rat!" He boomed.

"Ahhhhhhhh! Tori help me!" Suzie yelled laughing.

I laughed and jumped on Blake's back, "Give me back my little sister you jerk!"

"No she flipping pantsed me!" Blake bellowed.

"DOG PILLLEEEEE!!!!!!" I heard Cole yell.

I felt someone jump on me and Blake couldn't support us so he fell. Suzie screamed but was out of harm's reach. Cole was on my and then I felt more weight so I guessed Shawn jumped in. Then there was a little more weight but it wasn't much. It was obviously Suzie.

"I...can't....breathe!" I managed to get out. With Cole and Shawn on top of me it was pretty hard to breathe.

"How do you think I feel?" Blake managed to get out. I was about to comment when I felt water being pourn on us. We all yelled and I caught a glimpse on what was happening, dad and Lilly were holding the hose and spraying us with water.

"Mom!" Blake yelled.

"Dad!" I yelled back to my dad.

They laughed and kept spraying the water. Shawn got off and ran off, then Cole, and then me. I sprinted away from my parents and avoided their hose of ice cold water.

Uhhhhhh.... I was soooooo cold right now. I was literally trembling. Then I had a though, the lake.

I sprinted towards the lake and swan dived in the water. When the water touched me I surfaced and relaxed. Compared to the ice cold water, this was like a hot tub. Except it wasn't that hot, it was warm but I didn't care it wasn't as cold as the other water. The guys seemed to notice what I was doing and they ran towards the lake with Lilly, dad, amd Suzie chasing after them with the hose and water guns.

They dived in the water and surfaced.

"Whoa this feels great," Shawn said.

Cole sighed.

Blake he didn't say anything, but I could tell he liked my idea.

"How's the water?" Suzie asked.

"Great you should come in." I said.

Dad grabbed Suzie and placed her on his shoulders and ran towards us. Suzie yelled and laughed at the same time. Lilly ran after them.

"Chicken fight!" Shawn yelled climbing on top of Blake. Blake laughed and didn't object to Shawn.

Dad transferred Suzie to Lilly's shoulder and then came to me.

"Come on Tor-bo," He bent over and I climbed onto him, he grabbed my legs and now I was on his shoulders. I laughed and me and dad charged towards Blake and Shawn.

Me and Shawn locked arms and tried to push the other down. In the end we both just fell over and into the water. We surfaced laughing and found that Lilly and Suzie were having a chicken fight with Cole. Even though Cole was by himself.

I laughed at the sight of us. Actually we were all laughing, and right now I was having fun. Real fun with my three asshole stepbrothers. I couldn't help but wonder what my dad told me that night, 'Tori has it ever occured to you that if you do something nice for them, they might do something nice for you?'
