The smell of coffee wakes me the next morning. I open my eyes to Bamâs smiling face and a steaming cup of coffee. Bam kisses me before handing me the cup.
âI canât believe itâs Thursday alreadyâ I say after taking a sip. âHow do you feel about a trip to visit Weeman and a day at the beach?â
âSounds good to me, letâs see what the others thinkâ he replies getting up from the bed.
âWhat time is it? How are you up before me after last night?â I ask.
âItâs almost noon and I donât really know but Alynah made breakfast so get your ass out of bed and join us in the kitchenâ he says.
âAlright I will be there in a minuteâ I say. He kisses me once more before leaving the room. I quickly finish my coffee and throw on some clothes before heading down to the kitchen.
âAndrea!â Sam says as I walk in the kitchen âwe thought you were gonna sleep all dayâ
âI didnât mean to sleep so late, sorry about that. Alynah the food smells deliciousâ I say.
âThank youâ Alynah replies
âI canât believe you slept longer than I didâ Dunn says laughing.
âShut up! I like sleeping!â I say laughing and punch Dunn in the arm.
âSo now that sleeping beauty is awake what are the plans for today?â Ville asks.
âHow does everyone feel about a trip up the coast to go to the beach and then swing my Weemanâs restaurant for dinner and to say hiâ Bam says.
âSounds good to me, Iâm always up for hanging with the midgetâ Dunn says. Everyone agrees and after eating we all go and pack for a day at the beach.
Twenty minutes later we pile into the car for the hour ride up the coast. I let Dunn sit up front with Bam so I can talk with Alynah and Sam for the ride. Itâs a relatively short ride filled with good conversation and then we are at the beach. Itâs close to the beach that Bam brought me to for our anniversary. We all file out of the car and find an empty spot on the beach. It isnât too hard since there is almost no one here. After we set up camp I drag Bam into the water.
âI love this bathing suitâ He says when we are in the water up to our chests. He pulls me into his arms and I wrap my legs around his waist.
âWhy?â I ask and wrap my arms around his neck.
âBecause it does thisâ he says and unties the back.
âBam!â I scream and reach around to re-tie it.
âWhat? Everybody is on the beach and nobody can see usâ he says.
âYou act like they wonât know what we are doingâ I say.
âFine, we wonât do it right nowâ he says. I kiss him and he dips me under the water. I freak out and try to get out of his hold to get above the water and punch him. He pulls me back up and he is laughing.
âYouâre such a dickâ I say and punch him again.
âI know but you love meâ he says and kisses me. I nod and kiss him deeper.
We play around in the water for a while longer. At one point or another everybody joins us in the water. Eventually we get out of the water and lay out in the sun. Itâs a beautiful sunny California day, a perfect day for the beach.
âThis has been so much funâ Alynah says after coming in from the water.
âI know! And itâs been so relaxing to just chill for the day and not worry about anythingâ I reply.
âThis was the perfect California day. Thank you guys so muchâ Sam says as her and Ville come in from the water.
âYouâre so welcomeâ I say smiling up at them.
âWhat is Dunn doing?â Bam asks. We all look where he is pointing and see Dunn building something in the sand a few feet away from where we are all sitting.
âI donât know but I think we should check it outâ I say.
We all get up from our towels and walk over to Dunn. When we get closer I can see that it is a motorcycle.
âOnly you would make a sand bikeâ I say as I investigate it further.
âItâs not like I had anything better to doâ Dunn replies.
âItâs really goodâ Alynah says.
âThanksâ Dunn replies.
The rest of us decide to try our hand at making something in the sand. I try to make a portrait of Valo but give up shortly after starting because Iâm horrible at drawing in general much less in sand so instead I make a whole bunch of loaves of bread. Dunn comes over and laughs at my creation.
âShut up! You know Iâm not artistic!â I say and throw sand at him.
âNo those are some very nice loaves, now all you need are fishesâ he says still laughing.
âOh thatâs a good idea!â I say and begin work on some fishes. Dunn rolls his eyes and wanders over to where Bam is making a giant dick in the sand. After making a few fish I get up to investigate everyone elseâs masterpieces. Ville and Sam worked together and made a really awesome mermaid. Alynah made a bust of Dico with crazy hair and of course there was Dunnâs bike and Bamâs giant dick with hairy balls.
âBabe, why do you always have to make male genitalia?â I say then whisper âit makes me want yoursâ in his ear and kiss his ear.
âHeâs always been like that as long as Iâve known himâ Dunn says and I see Ville nod in agreement.
âAt least itâs more realistic than the dick farm on his assâ Ville says. We all laugh and agree. We go through the rest of them together and laugh and joke about all of them. When we finish we run through them after taking pictures with them. Then we head back to our stuff.
âIâm getting hungryâ I hear Sam say to Ville when we get back to our stuff. I look at my phone and see that itâs 4 oâclock.
âI donât blame you itâs already 4. Iâm hungry too. Anybody else?â I say. Everyone else agrees that they are hungry so we put our clothes back on and gather our things. As we walk back to the car I grab Bamâs hand.
âWe are finishing what we started in the water tonight on the beach near the houseâ I whisper in his ear.
âItâs a dateâ he whispers back and kisses my shoulder.
We get in the car and head to Weemanâs Chronic Tacoâs which is a few miles down the road. When we get there I spot Weemanâs car in the parking lot. Itâs hard to miss, what with the decals of him naked.
âLook its Weemanâs car!â I say pointing it out as Bam finds a parking spot.
âGreat the midget is hereâ Dunn says. We all get out and head towards the store. Ville and Sam are holding hands. When we walk in the door Weeman, who is behind the counter, freaks out.
âHey guys! I didnât know you were stopping by the shop!â he exclaims coming from behind the counter to hug us.
âYeah, Drea suggested coming to the beach up here and then grabbing some food here before heading backâ Dunn says.
âSweet! Well order whatever you want, itâs on the houseâ Weeman says grinning from ear to ear.
âWe canât let you do that!â I say.
âI insist. Now look over the menu and then I will ring you upâ he replies.
âOkâ I say and give him another hug.
We all order and find a table near the back. Itâs hard to be secluded in a restaurant like this especially with six people. Luckily the place isnât too busy so there arenât a whole lot of people that want autographs and pictures with bam, Dunn, and Weeman.
âHow have you been?â I ask Weeman when he sits down with us, âI didnât get a chance to catch up when we saw you the other dayâ
âIâve been great! Busy travelling and promoting my new boards and busy here when Iâm homeâ he says.
âThatâs awesome. I heard about your new line. I will check it out, there might be something I like for me or the nephews and nieceâ I say smiling.
âSweet, how have you guys been? You and Bam were just here a couple weeks ago right, for your anniversary?â he asks.
âYeah and we will be back next month because Dre is working with Pink on a new music video so we are coming back for a week or twoâ Bam says.
âWow Dre thatâs really awesomeâ Weeman says.
âThanks, Iâm really excited about itâ I say.
Weeman goes around the table asking everyone how they are. He knows Ville from Bam having him around the Jackass set and he knows Alynah from shooting for Jackass at our house. We have a wonderful lunch with Weeman.
âI must say that those tacos were almost authenticâ I tell Weeman as I hug him while we say bye.
âYou know how it is, being half. Itâs never as good as abuelaâs but itâs still goodâ he replies smiling.
âDonât be a stranger Weeman. If youâre in the Philly area stop by. Iâll even let you skate my rampsâ Bam says giving him a hug.
âIâll be sure to make time if Iâm in the area. See ya later dudesâ he says waving as we walk across the parking lot to our car.
âByeâ we all say waving back at him.
We get in the car and head back to the house. I fall asleep almost immediately. When I wake up Bam is getting off the highway on our exit. Everyone else is asleep in the back, even Dunn. I sneak my hand over and fit my fingers between Bamâs. He lifts my hand to his lips and kisses it. I smile and fall back asleep still holding his hand.
âAlright sleepy heads, we are homeâ Bam says as he pulls the car into our driveway. He lets go of my hand and I stretch before getting out of the car. Itâs already seven, because of traffic, when we get home. Everybody splits up when we get inside. Ville and Sam go to their room, Dunn goes to his and Alynah goes to hers.
âWe have two optionsâ I say to Bam when we get to our room.
âAnd they are?â he asks.
âWell we can sneak off right now and go back to the beach and finish our aquatic business, or we can shower now and go to the beach in the middle of the nightâ I say.
âI like the middle of the night ideaâ he says coming over to where I am leaning against the door. âAnd a shower sure does sound nice right about now as wellâ he says as he reaches over and unties my suit top before taking my shirt off. Then he kisses me.
âYou talked me into itâ I say before jumping into his arms. He carries me to the bathroom. I wish I could say we made it to the shower but that would be a lie. I can say that Iâm thankful to whoever picked out the rug in the bathroom because it sure does feel nice against bare skin.
After showering and changing we head downstairs to see what everyone else is up to. We find Dunn in the living room on the phone, and Alynah downstairs in the home theater.
âHey Alynahâ I say as I sit down next to her.
âHey Drea, Bam. Today was really fun. Do we have plans for tonight?â she asks.
âNot that I know ofâ I reply looking over at Bam. He shakes his head.
âIâm not hungry yet but I thought that ordering pizza would be easy and maybe watching a movieâ she says.
âThat sounds wonderful to meâ I say hugging my best friend.
âIâll go see what everybody wants on their pizza while you guys pick out some movie optionsâ Bam says.
Alynah and I pick out a few options none of which involve horror of any kind because I hate horror movies. Ville and Sam join us downstairs.
âWhere are Bam and Dunn?â Alynah asks.
âBam said they were going to get the pizza and would be back in a few minutesâ Sam responds.
âOh alright. So what movie do you guys want to watch. The boys will deal with whatever we pickâ I say.
We pick a comedy and when Bam and Ryan get back we all dig into the pizza and start the movie. Iâm so in love with our house in LA. The theater seats in our entertainment room are super comfortable and they have adjustable arm rests so I can snuggle up to Bam. Ville and Sam follow our lead and do the same. The movie doesnât last nearly as long as I would like but when itâs over I remember that the last time we were here Bam and I bought some paint supplies to keep on hand.
âAnybody want to paint?â I ask.
âThat sounds like a wonderful ideaâ Ville says.
I grab the supplies and we spend a few hours hanging out and painting. The entire time I canât help thinking how lucky I am to have such amazing people in my life and everything I could ever want in life. I put the finishing touches on my painting and my phone rings.
âHelloâ âDreaaaaaaâ
âHey DJ whatâs upâ I reply rolling my eyes and smiling. I met DJ a few years ago while I was in LA for an internship. We were a couple for a few weeks but realized we were better off as friends. I tend to get a lot of drunk calls from him after his shows. I talk to him for a while, apparently Guns n Roses just had a show in Indianapolis which happens to be where DJ and I grew up.
âTell your family I said hi and will try to visit the next time Iâm home. Go have a good night. Byeâ I say and hang up.
âHowâs Ashba doing?â Bam asks when I come back to the room. Which is empty save Bamâs sexy self. He has a little paint smear on his cheek which is adorable.
âHeâs doing well. Just finished playing a show in Indy which is probably why he calledâ I say.
âDid everybody go to bed?â
âYeah. So how about we head down to the beach and finish what we started earlierâ
âIâm in. Let me go change real quickâ
âHurry back babeâ he says as I dart up to our room to change back into my suit and grab a few towels.
âReady?â I ask when I get to the bottom of the stairs where he is waiting.
âAlwaysâ he says and kisses me.
We head to the beach. Thankfully the beach is deserted and the water is still warm. Itâs dark enough to go skinny dipping which is exactly what we do. After fooling around in the water we get out and cuddle on the towels I brought.
âHave I told you lately how much I love you?â I ask âBecause I love you so very muchâ
âI love you too babyâ he replies and kisses me. Warmth runs through me, making me want him again but also telling me he loves me.
Before we fall asleep we get up and put our clothes back on and head back to the house. We get back and take a quick shower to rinse off the saltwater before crawling into bed. I fall asleep the minute I lay my head on Bamâs chest.
