20 Degrees From Cool

Justin: Nothing planned, just winging it for now. Should we meet up after the show is over?

"That sounds good. We can meet up at the bonfire." Kyle responded. "You'll probably get to see me surf this afternoon." Just a little nugget if the other boy was interested in taking it and watching Kyle surf.

"Well, I should go finish filming this." Gesturing to the stuff going on around them. "It looks like some people are starting to finish up and a need just a little more footage. I'll see you later."

Justin smiled as he gave a small wave at Kyle as they parted ways. Justin was glad things were working out well for him. He was in a good mood as he made his way back to helping out the others who were short on muscle. He was thinking about what he could talk to Kyle about the next time they met as well as contemplating the idea of taking surfing lessons from Kyle. The idea of a little skin ship with Kyle made him blush a bit.

============================================

Kaylee had been up on the stage finalizing and had looked out to see Matt and Courtney not speaking to each other. What could have possibly happened between the motorcycle this morning and now? The girl didn't know but something must have.

She also spotted Conner talking to Blossom and that made her curious, as well. She thought back to the time spent with Conner at the skateboard park earlier after they spied on Courtney and Matt. The two had talked about things and there had definitely been some mild flirting back and forth. She liked him, truth be told, she liked him back when they had met when she was in 7th grade but that had been a kid's, sort of, crush on her older brother's friend. This wasn't the same.

Kaylee was opened minded enough to be ok with Conner wanting to see both of them and figuring it out but then again she didn't know for sure he liked Blossom; it wasn't like she could hear their conversation nor would she have eavesdropped on it even if she could have but it did make her wonder what was going on. She certainly wasn't naïve enough to think that she might be the only girl that he liked. So, she'd be ok with it either way but she just wanted to know what he was thinking.

Conner: Talk to all the girls this way? no not all the girls.
He said with a smile.
Conner: My mother said I need to talk to Girls with respect and compliments. I don't talk to Courtney the way I talk to you. Are you questioning my motives? That shows you are smart. That your mother gave you good advice. I think you are cute and smart. I like what I see. I would like to see where this could lead us over time. Does this make me a sweet talker? I guess in a way. Just trying to get to know you and maybe get you to like me. It is that simple. you have nothing to fear from me you have Ashley and others on your side that would make me pay if I did something mean to you. Conner smiled trying to put her at ease.

Blossom turned red as she looked down at the floor for a moment. Then she slowly looked up at Conner with her innocent big brown eyes as he glasses slid down a bit on her nose. She blinked a few times before she pushed her glasses back up before she spoke up.

Blossom: I see ........................ Well I don't think I'm cute but it is nice to hear you say that. You are very sweet Conner and I like talking to you, but if I keep doing that we might not finish this project.

Blossom looked back at the decorations since she was not sure what to say after that.

================================

Elena: OK boys, that can't happen here today but next week at school we can plan things out. Make sure you keep this a secret between us. Because if you don't the plan will not work. I will tell Lance that you guys tried to make me look bad and get me in trouble.
She said in her charming way and as a warning.
she paused to make sure they got that part of her warning.
Elena in a seductive tone
Elena: Now boys, if you want this plan to work you have to leave Ashley alone so that she does not think something is up. We will set it up where you take the pitchers. Now run along so we can finish setting up we will talk later on Monday.

Joey and Charlie seemed excited as they made arm pumping motion as if they scored a touch down. They were in high spirits as they left Elena thinking they were invincible. Of course they were easily distracted by a few cute girls who were chatting on the beach. They were hoping to score some points with them.

============================================

Meanwhile Ashley and the two cheerleaders found all their boxes of decorations and were patiently watching Conner flirt with Blossom since it would ruin the mood for dear Blossom. They were smirking as they watched Conner put on his charm. They giggled a bit and were trying to guess what he was saying to her. Some of what they were suggesting sounded amusing such as the two cheerleaders made him sound like PePe Lepew or one of the Disney Prince characters. Ashley on the other hand joked that he was offering her sweets like cookies and cake. The girls giggled a bit as they continued to joke. Then Jack walked into the conversation by accident and paused as Ashley looked at him with a wicked smile. He then gave a head nod and headed a different direction since he didn't want to be involved in their conversation.
