One of the first things about Riverside that had grabbed to triplets' attention was that there was a beach. When there parents had brought them to their new house here they left all 5 of the kids and went back to get the last of their stuff from the old house. The kids were supposed to be unpacking all the stuff but Kyel and Joey had voted that Mike check out the beach and report back. Mike had happily agreed and headed out, having already studied a map of Riverside on the trip here. Upon reaching the beach Mike smiled and kicked off his flip flops, picked them up, and walked out through the sand barefooted in his black basketball shorts and white t-shirt. He waded through the shallow water along the shoreline watching the tiny waves roll in. He pulled out his phone and texted his brother Kyel his report then slid it back into his pocket and ran his hand through hair. He happily sighed and threw his flip flops onto the dry sand before sitting next to them to watch the small waves roll in.

Amber had to drag Kendall to the beach, she had wanted to go for days but had been spending tme with Eian much to Kendall's annoyance. Upon arriving Kendall scaned the beach quickly it was pretty empty which she liked she hated when the beach was busy, but she knew Amber liked it no matter what. Turning to her sister she grabbed her by the arm. "How long are you planing on staying before you go meet Eian?" Amber shrugged at her sister. ''Not sure Kendall. Maybe an hour or so I'm waiting for him to text me. Cmon let's go find a good spot. Near the water but not too close to the shore line" Amber said as she begun to walk off Kendall following close behind.
Finding a spot five minutes later Amber and Kendall laid out their towels slipping off their flip flops, T-shirts and shorts leaving them in matching pink bikinis. Kendall propped herself up on her elbows as she spotted a guy walking along the shore line, she noticed he was good looking but knew she didn't stand a chance to get this attention with the presence of Amber. It was the first time she wished her sister wasn't with her. Fixing a smile on her face she put her sunglasses on so if he did happen to look over he wouldn't know one hundred percent if she was actually looking over at him.

As Mike watched the waves he wondered to himself if the beach was always this empty. He propped his elbows up on his knees and tilted his head, starting to daydream, when he saw movement out of the corner of his eye. He looked down the beach and saw two girls wearing matching swim suits and grinned, they were cute. He turned his head back trying not to make it obvious he was watching them. The one with the sun glasses appeared to be looking in his general direction and he thought, or maybe hoped, perhaps she was looking at him. He thought: "Mom did say to make friends" and laughed quietly. He played with the sand around him trying to come up with a reason to talk to them. Unable to think of anything he liked he grimaced and laid back with his arms out and sighed. He wish he come come up with clever stuff to say like his brothers always did.

Amber saw this guy checking out her sister. "think you've got yourself an admirer there K" Amber giggled, "you should go over and say Hi? I'm fine by myself you know me once I've got my sun cream on I'll be fine" Amber said trying to give her sister a nudge to go over and talk to the guy that was checking her out. "Erm I dunno about that Amber, for all we know he might have been checking you out'' Kendall said, still unsure of her looks. She wasn't the prettish girl but then she wasn't ugly either. Pushing her sunglasses to the top of her head she let out a sigh. "Maybe I should ask him if at least he wants to join us. He is by himself after all. And I guess it would be good to try and make a friend. But I dunno" Kendall shrugged. "Kendall just do it what's the worst he could say?" Amber smiled putting her sun cream on and finally her sunglasses. Kendall sighed but got up seconds later running a hand through her hair as she made her way over to the guy, a smile fixed on her face. ''hey I'm Kendall mind if I sit?" she asked, extending her hand so he could shake it if he wanted too.

Mike had been staring up at the clouds and hadn't seen here get up so he was a little shocked when he heard her speak. He looked over at her and sat up, running a hand through his hair he said "Uh, go ahead... I'm Mike" he reached out and took her extended hand. He smiled, he was kind of shocked that she was actually talking to him. He was used to being kind of blocked out by his brothers, because he was always that weird kid that enjoyed school and reading and stuff. He realized he was still holding her hand and sheepishly let go "Erm, sorry." He felt pretty stupid and mentally kicked himself once again wishing he was more like his brothers, he had a habit of comparing himself to his brothers when it came to girls.

Kendall blushed when he apologised for still holding onto her hand she hadn't even realised that he was still holding her hand. "it's erm okay" she said as she sat down at the side of him. Looking over her shoulder at her sister who was now laid out on her towel so she couldn't even see her face to mouth what do I do now to her. It wasn't that she didn't like talking to boys she did about books and school work and nerdy things as her siblings would say. "so are you new in town?" she finally asked after a few minutes of awkward slience.

Mike rubbed his arm trying to think of something to say in the awkward silence and was relived when she asked him a question. A small smile came to his face and he answered "Uh, yeah, just got here yesterday. We're still unpacking and everything, we don't even have all our stuff here yet. My parents actually left this morning to get the last of it." He ran a hand through his hair and asked her "So, have you lived here for a while?"

Kendall smiled when Mike said he had just moved into town. Nodding her head at his question. "yep lived here for about a year or so not quite sure the actual dates" Kendall said flicking her hair back not really sure why she was making such a fuss. "So would you like to come and sit with me and my sister? I need to head back over to get some more suncream. Got really fair skin so need to apply it pretty often" Kendall said not really sure why she was jibbering on about putting sun cream on. But just sat talking to Mike was making her pretty nervous for some reason.

Mike smiled and nodded when she said she'd been in Riverside for about a year. He glanced over at her sister when she mentioned her then looked back at her. He smiled at her and nodded again "Yeah, sure". He stood up and brushed some the sand off himself "I understand." then he picked up his shoes. He looked at her held out his free hand to help her up, thinking to himself about how pretty she looked.

"Thanks" Kendall smiled when Mike held his hand out to help her up. Brushing the sand of her legs as they walked over to Amber. "This is my sister Amber. Amber this is Mike" Kendall said as they apporached Amber. "Hi" Amber smiled up at Mike not moving as once she was tanning she'd only move if it was an emergency or if was something important.
Grabbing ths sun lotion from her bag she quickly applied some to her stomach, legs, arms and face. Leaving her back cause her hair covered most of it so she just assumed it would be fine without any sunscream. "do you need any?" Kendall said holding out the sun cream to Mike. Wondering if either her sister or Mike might ask if she needed any help topping up her back. "So how long are you planning on spending at the beach? Will your parents be okay with you hiding out here"

Mike smiled and walked over with her. "Hi" he gave a small wave to her sister Amber. He ran a hand through his hair and sat next to Kendall's towel watching her put the sunscreen on. When she asked him if he needed any he shook his head "No thanks, I'm pretty used to the sun". He noticed that she didn't put any on her back and wondered if it would be weird for to offer to get it for her. Pushing that thought aside he replied to her new question, "Really I can stay out as long as I want to. My family won't mind, nobody is really doing anything other than unpacking anyways. What about you?"

''Yeah I can stay out for as long as I like. Well until I get bored or you have to leave. Since Amber's meeting her boyfriend soon" Kendall said, looking at him as she told him Amber had a boyfriend. To see what his reaction would be. That would make her mind up to plan her next move. Not that she really knew how to flirt if she happened to, or how to talk to boys. She didn't really have a good history with boys. She'd had one boyfriend and the most they had gone was hold hands and kiss. So she wasn't experienced in that area. She just hoped they could find some common ground, something they both where interested in.

Mike shrugged "I can stick around for a while" he smiled, thinking about getting to spend more time with Kendall, even though he had trouble thinking of what to say and do around her. He had been friends with plenty of girls before but he had never really gotten to know them, his brothers had always been more social then he was. He was the only one who knew Kendall though and he wanted to get to know her better. "Hanging out sounds way better than unpacking" he laughed.

"yep hanging out is way better than unpacking. I've had to move around a fair bit before my mum adopted me and then we moved a few times back and forth from here to England and vise versa" Kendall explained, having family in England meant they spent several months each year over there, normally around Christmas when the weather was cold, and it snowed a lot. Weather she didn't like and she could never wait for the months to go by so she could return to where ever else they where living cause it was never cold there. "So where have you moved from? I'm guessing you can already tell I'm English, or am I loosing my accent. My nanna says something I don't pronounce my words like I used to do. She blames it on all the moving around we've done. I guess she is right you pick up a towns habits when you live in one place too long don't ya" Kendall said a smile on her face. She could talk about England for days but she wouldn't bore him with that. She was sure she could hear Amber fake snoring but she didn't wanna draw attention to her sister who was making her feel more self consious than ever.

Mike tilted his head to the side a bit surprised, he had never really known anyone who had been adopted before. "Wow, I wasn't expecting that... Did you enjoy moving around? This was actually my first real move, my family has gone on vacation a lot though. My parents are both into the business field and they travel pretty often, so some times they take us all with them". He rubbed the back of his neck trying not to bore her with random facts from his life. "We moved here from Florida." He smiles when she mentions her accent, finally understanding why her voice sounded unique, "Well, that explains you're voice, makes sense too. It's definitely still there, just not exactly obvious." He smiled, listening to her, he was enjoying getting to know her better.
