Nice one.

Riley then came up a moment later his hair draped over his face and having to do the same thing as Ava a moment prior.

"And I thought you were the nicer one" Riley says to Olivia.

"She is, I would've all but drowned you" I call over as I get onto the beach, and sitting down next to Nico.

"This cooler's pretty full what do you want" Nico asks opening the lid of the cooler that the boys I presume had filled earlier.

"Hand me a Ginger Beer please" I reply as Nico handed me the bottle.

"I thought you didn't drink beer" Hunter comments getting back on his float.

"I don't it's pretty much ginger flavoured soda" I say twisting off the lid, and taking a sip from it.

"How does it taste" Olivia asks walking over to me, and I hand her the bottle.

"This is good" she says carrying the bottle away.

"You've been drink snatched" Riley laughs.

"I was going to get my towel" Olivia corrects setting it in my lap and sitting down on it.

"She trips me for getting water on her but she literally is sitting in your lap and you just swam out like eighty yards" Riley says.

"It was on her terms" I point out.

"You have to be the devil" he mutters.

"Then how I haven't turned into ash when I enter churches or look at the cross piece in my closet I don't know" I muse taking my sunglasses off the sand beside me, and flicked them open before pushing them up my nose so that I won't be blinded by the rays of sun shining down on the water making the waves glisten.

"Olivia must have been purifying him" Hunter says.

"Ambrose" I warn, glaring at him through the dark lens of my Ray Bans. "There is a lake underneath you".

Hunter then raises his hands in surrender before I take back the bottle from Olivia's hand and take a sip from it.

"Why must you immediately go to threatening me" Hunter complains.

"Because it's the only way you'll shut up" Nico replies.

"And even then it only supplies peace for so long" I add.

"Can I not be the butt of the joke" Hunter moans.

"Stop getting yourself in situations where you can be" I suggest, and I see Nico smirk out of the corner of my eye.

"I'm being fucking abused" Hunter mutters walking away after taking a can of beer from the cooler.

"We should play volleyball" Mia suggests, walking over to where her towel was, after beaching her pool float.

"Ooh sounds fun" Olivia says getting off my lap and going to follow them, which everyone but me and Nico also did.

I was satisfied with sitting and drinking in quiet just the same as Nico was reading and listening to the waves roll onto the beach.

When I finished my drink, I decided to go see how the volleyball game was going.

"Where are you going" Nico asks looking over at me.

"To oversee the game" I reply before walking up the steps over to where they all played evenly split on each side of the net playing as if it were a tournament, but they all were competitive.

Leaning against the firepit I watched Hunter jump up to spike the ball before he was blocked by Kate who deflected the ball back over the net, only to be passed around and sent back over the net where the cycle continued until someone messed up and a point was scored.

Then all of a sudden Riley tried to save the ball and he ended up hitting it in my direction which I quickly caught by kicking it up into my hands much like a foot ball, the British version not the American.

Throwing it to Hunter who had his hand up to signal which side it was supposed to start from.

Walking from my spot against the firepit I walked up to the outdoor kitchen which I began to make use of since I had steaks out here I needed to use up before they go bad.

Opening the built in freezer I pulled out eight sirloin steaks, a bag of string beans, and a bag of potatoes. Turning on the grill I let it heat up while I unwrapped the meat, after washing my hands and seasoning the steaks I put two pots on the stove to boil.

After everything had heated up I put the sirloin's on the grill and the potatoes and beans in the pots of boiling water.

An hour later when everything had cooked and I was seasoning the potatoes with butter and herb and garlic, I saw a can out of the corner of my eye and catching it a few inches from my head before cracking it open and taking a sip of the Sprite.

"You've got to be kidding that was so close" Riley sighs in defeat.

"Niles, are you asking to be drowned?" I ask calmly, turning to look at him from the grill as I fork the steaks onto a plate.

"I'm going to deny your offer" Riley says backing away from where he stood as if I was going to chase him, though he knows damn well that he won't get very far.

"It wasn't an offer" I say walking down the steps towards Riley.

"Dude run" Hunter says and Riley takes off running, before I go through the tree's cutting him off before he skids to a stop and I lift him up over my shoulder like a sack of bricks.

"Put me the fuck down" he protests as I walk into the water and hand him upside down above the lake.

"Apologize for throwing the can at me and I'll put you down" I say calmly as I lower him so only his hair is in the water.

"You should do as he says" Mia yells over to us.

"You won't actually drown me will you?" Riley asks looking up at me.

"Does it look like I'm bluffing?" I muse.

Don't lie to yourself Winters you won't actually drown him.

"No, alright I'm sorry, I won't do it again".

"That wasn't so hard was it?" I smirk setting him down next to me and walking back onto the sandy shore.

"There's your proof Olivia's the nicer one" Hunter mutters.

"Do you want to be next Ambrose?".

"Nope" Hunter quickly says making sure to be as far from the water as he could get.

Walking across the marble path towards the patio Olivia stood smiling next to me, and I could tell she found what I had just done slightly amusing.

"I'm going to forever find it funny they haven't realized you'd never actually hurt them" Olivia says glancing up at me.

"They'll figure it out eventually" I smile with a shrug, "now let's eat I'm starving" I add clapping as I walk up the steps.

"I don't think Riley will have much of an appetite" Kate points out.

"Riley" I call over to him, and he jumps slightly before turning to look at me as I smirk, "I wasn't actually going to drown you, even if you could have given me a concussion".

"With that thick skull I'm not quite sure about that" Hunter says sitting down, and I hear Ava snicker.

"Hunter, you're going to sign your death wish one day" Nico mutters.

"One day" I say looking down at Hunter who hadn't realized how close I was to him. "Just not while I'm hungry".

"That's your saving grace" Mia mutters, and I can tell she knows I wouldn't hurt Hunter though as Nico's sister I would expect nothing less.

Sitting down at the end of the table I picked up my fork and knife and began cutting my steak along with everyone else, and through it everything soon became normal again.
