Going to the marina came at a price. A $10.00 entry fee, followed by getting caught in the wave of water caused by the dolphins in the nearest tank. Rachel on the one hand had been prepared to pay the entrance fee into the park, but she haden't been at all prepared for getting soaked by some animal that didnt know the difference between a fishers net and reef. The plan was to meet Haley here for a girls afternoon. After all, they hadn't spent much time together lately. What with school work, boyfriends, drama, their different friends and social statures, they often found it hard to choose a time when neither of them was busy doing their own thing. She'd just arrived inside the park and parked herself near a small fountain, when out of no where a splash of water had made its way over her head, landing directly on top of her. Turning with her hands at her sides, blonde curls dripping with water, Rachel haden't realized just where she was standing. "Why couldn't Haley have been the one standing here?" She asked herself, as she began wringing her tank top out. (crap post but i cant think atm lol)

Haley paid her $10 and headed inside the Marina, why her and Rachel had agreed to meet here of all places was beyond her but she was looking forward to hanging out with her best friend it had been far too long since they had some girly time. She wandered around the various tanks looking for Rachel, she heard a familiar voice and span round to see a young girl with wet blonde curls looking like a drowned rat, "nice look Rach" she said with a laugh as she stopped behind her. She couldnt help but let out a little laugh but soon she was in the same situation when a huge splash of water enveloped her. She looked down at her wet clothes and scraped back her long brown wet hair and laughed "girl why the Marina...why?" she added with a laugh.

Rach had just finished squeezing what water she could, out of her top, when she also heard the familiar voice of her friend Haley Lovell. Turning to face the girl standing before her, Rachel could only laugh at her friend as well as herself. It seemed that Haley had caught herself in the same situation Rachel had found herself only a few minutes earlier, "You tell me..." She said with a snicker, shaking her leg to get the water out of her sandle, "...You tell me...So what took you so long. I've been here long enough to get wet!"

"Sorry my car broke down had to call Craig and he was late so blame him" she added with a laugh. She walked over and linked her arm with Rachels, "so where we going?" she asked as they walked away from the tank, "somewhere warm and dry please!" she added with a laugh. "So whats new with Miss Stone seems forever since we've spoken" she asked as they walked.

Shaking her head, Rachel clicked her tongue on her teeth, "tisk tisk Haley...If you knew Craig...You would know hes ALWAYS late. Hes too busy doing his hair and all that boy stuff..." She rolled her eyes and smirked. Rachel knew Craig as a friend and as her ex. They would have worked out, or at least she thought, but they found it easier to be friends. They just seemed to grow closer that way...Which they had.
"Warm and dry...Sounds like the perfect plan to me," Rachel replied with a sharp nod of her blonde curly haired head, "How bout the water reptiles? Its warm in there..." She said knowing all too well that both girls hated the site of anything slimmy and slithery.

"You are kidding?" Haley shivvered at the thought of those reptiles, "I vote for the cafe" she laughed "Hot chocolate and some people watching how can you resist" she grinned
{{Sorry its short and it sucks but my mind is blank lol}}

Rachel laughed at her friends remark and changed their course of action towards the exit of the park, "Cafe sounds good to me. Although, I must admit, we will probably be the main attraction seeing as though we look like we just got tossed over board..." She raised an eyebrow but continued on all the same, "Oh and to answer your question on what been goin on with 'Miss Rachel'...The usual you could say. What about you? Hanging out with Craig at every free minute im guessing."

Haley couldnt help but laugh, Rachel was right they looked like they'd gone swimming with the dolphins. She pulled her friend close as they headed towards the entrance, "so the usual.....care to elaborate" she added with a smirk "hey whats wrong with hanging with Craig, I mean when a guys that hot and im so irresistable..." she let out a loud laugh at her own lame attempt at being funny.

"Elaborate on what?" Rachel asked keeping her eyes locked on ahead of her. With a slight shrug she added, "You know, school, swimming, soccer, other school stuff, finding free time to hang with my bestest buddies..." She looked over at Haley, a sly smirk slowely making its way onto her red lips. Rachel's social life consisted mainly of chatting between classes, at a club when she got the chance to go, and now, when she managed to find the time to hang out with a friend. Other than that, she was involved in school sports, and the newspaper giving her little time to do anything but that.
"Not to mention that night at the club where Luke Bennette dedicated a song to me...." She said this keeping her eyes from Haley's, a dreamy expression coming over her features,"...Yup the usual. But going onto to more important things, I know how you feel, Craig is definatly irresistable..." The dreamy expression she had used when talking about Luke stayed glued on her face as she spoke of Craig as well. Haley knew how Rachel could be at times, but at this moment, she was only joking.

"Sounds like the Rachel I know....so any guys take your fancy..." Haley couldnt help but get right down to the nitty gritty it was the girl she was honest and cheeky. Haley stopped walking and looked Rachel in the face "Excuse me...rewind, Luke...as in my best friend Luke dedicated a song to you?" Haley laughed at her friend and could see by the look on her face that there was more to this than just friendship. "and hey hands of Craig" she laughed knowing Rachel was joking.

When Haley stopped, Rachel was forced to stop just as well since their arms had been hooked in hopes of getting out of the park somewhat dry. The idea that Luke was Haley's best friend had completely skipped her mind as she noted it, but now there was no way out unless she explained herself.
Stopping, one arm at her side the other slipping from Haley's Rachel didn't see the big deal, "Ya...He dedicated a song to me the other night at Razmas...Big whoop..." She gave a slight laugh hoping that maybe she would get an explination as too why it was such a shocker, "It's not like it meant anything. And Hales...Craig was mine at one point, I still have dibs on chillin with him every once in a while."

"Chillin yes...anything further than that...no" she added with a laugh "ok now back to Luke, there is no way this was 'just a dedication'" she said with air quotes "come on you know you can tell me anything...do you like him?" she asked as she stared at her friends face trying to work out what she was thinking.

Rachel laughed at Haley's quick to judge statment, but was soon cut short as her friend changed the subject back to Luke. What was it about best friends that made them so interested in your love life? That Rachel would have to figure out for herself. So with a shrug, she held a small smile, "Hes a nice guy....But hes...Into any girl. I know what your thinking Haley, your really bad at hiding these things you know." She shook her head slightly, changing the subject once more, but Haley was persistant and there was no telling how long it would take to convince her.
(haha Haley should play matchmaker without the two knowing)

Haley pouted her bottom lip "I dont know what you're talking about" she said acting all innocent. She knew Rachel liked Luke and she would have to help them both realise their feelings if they werent going to do it themselves "fine keep telling yourself that but I know you Rachel and I know Luke and I have my ways..." she cut herself short and let out a small laugh. (good idea )

"You have your ways Haley...But I also have mine and Luke has his, so whatever you have planned...Good luck!" Rachel let out a small laugh. She knew Haley all too well and she knew that she liked to stick her nose into places where it didnt belong, but it was always amusing to see what she had up her sleeve. "Now can we either go back to fighting over Craig or head to the cafe?"
