"What?" Matt asked.
"Nothing." I said.
"What?" He asked again.
"My dad does that. Nick too." I told him.
"Does what?" He asked.
"Orders all the food." I told him.
"Oh, sorry!" He said.
"It's okay. Just funny." I told him. "Are you going to talk to Conrad?" I asked him. He just shrugged.
"He really didn't try anything." I told him.
"I believe you. I'll talk to him when we get back." He said.
"Thank you. I really like your family." I told him.
"You do?" He asked.
"Yeah, they are all pretty cool."
"Yeah. I wish I could see more of Izzy. I feel like I don't even know her sometimes." He said. Just then the waiter walked up with our food. After we finished eating we drove back to the house. When we walked in Clara was in the kitchen.
"Hey Ma, is Conrad here?" He asked.
"He's down at the beach." She said.
"Okay. I'm gonna change." He said, and left.
"Clara." I said, and she looked up at me. "I'm sorry about this morning."
"It's okay. Those two have always bickered over boys." She said.
"Do you need any help?" I asked her.
"No, you go down to the beach and have some fun." She said.
"Okay. Thanks." I told her and walked to Matts room. He was already in his trunks and had a towel in his arm.
"Wait for me!" I said.
"Oh, sorry." He said. "I'm going to get my board out of the garage. Just meet me out back." He said, and left.
"Okay." I said, under my breath. I was annoyed that he kept leaving me. I changed, found a towel in the bathroom and the walked downstairs. I went out the back door and Matt was standing on the deck holding his board and waiting for me.
"Come on!" He said, and started to run to a few people gathered on the beach. I ran after him. I caught up to him and Conrad.
"Hey Conrad. I'm sorry about this morning." Matt said.
"Don't worry about it! Let's catch some waves." Conrad said, and the shook hands. I layed out my towel and sat on it so I could watch them surf. I couldn't stop looking at Conrad. He looked hot in his swim trunks. I giggled when I thought how silly I was being.
"Whats funny?" Someone asked. I looked up and Izzy was coming down to join me.
"I'm just laughing at the guys being silly." I told her, and she giggled.
"Mind if I sit with you?" She asked.
"No, go right ahead!" I told her, and she layed out her towel next to me and sat down.
"So you are from California?" She asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"That is so cool! I've always wanted to go there!" She said excitedly.
"It's a great place. You have to go sometime." I told her. Just then Matt came running over and picked me right up off the towel.
"Put me down!" I shouted. Instead he ran me right into the ocean. I screamed! The water was freezing compared to what I was used too.
