Sand, waves, heat, romance, connections, drugs and beer. All things that make up a good summer. These teens are in California for the holidays, and most are especially excited to hit the beach. People come from all over the world just for it's beautiful sunsets, warm weather, well-known waters, and much more. Fashion in this city is quite concentrated, and people try to find the closest thing to bare skin when this temperature is up as high as it is. California is one of the most populous states in the united states. Surfing, boogie boarding and body surfing are all very popular is this wondrous place. In fact, people often take this fantastic city for granted, and tend to think of it as too hot.

Mackenzie Puckett is a small town boy, with a very interesting personality. When faced to strangers, he can be very shy and quiet, but it doesn’t take much for Mackenzie to show you his true self. Most people think of him as innocent and adorable, and usually they’re right. But when Mackenzie starts to dance, all his hidden fierceness and confidence all comes out at once, and forms once truly magnificent routine. He isn’t into hip hop or anything of that sort, he much rather prefers ballroom, jazz and modern dancing. He has learned to stretch his body in many ways from countless years of gymnastics and stretching, and he is now able to do many things people think as impossible. It doesn’t take long for you to absolutely adore, and complement him uncountable times once you have seen his ballet. Other then that, his hobbies are playing the guitar, singing –when no one’s around- and traveling. In fact, his two greatest whishes are to win the TV show ‘so you think you can dance’ and travel the world. So far, he has visited, Italy, Spain, France, Australia and Mexico. He has also visited Hawaii around five times. Many people ask how he can afford such expensive trips. Well, ever since he was ten Mackenzie has lived a beautiful, rich and glamorous life. It was the day his parents won the lottery. Every time he thinks of that exact moment on television where it showed a man handing a very large check to his mother, he can’t help but smile. Ever since then, he has been spoiled in the category of the arts, and has had as many dance classes as his father dares to afford, which is quite a lot since they had won around twenty-two million dollars.
history:
Mackenzie isn’t very popular at school, although he has many friends. The reason why, is because people tease and bother him about his wonderful talent, and they often call him vicious and unnecessary names that are unmentionable. He has gone through quite a lot of beating, and being pushed around, but he has learned to ignore the people who threaten and bother him. But even though it hurts, at the end of the day, Mackenzie knows he’s the real winner of his life.
Mackenzie became rich from his parents luck in the local lottery. It has been the first time either of them had entered such a thing. It was Mackenzie who had convinced them to give it a spin, and it was a good idea too. Perhaps they might have gotten along fine without all this money, but they were a poor family, with barely anything to eat or drink. He envied the kids who were wealthy, and had plenty of everything and wouldn’t share some with the unfortunate. Mackenzie and his family have been through that stage of life, and every year the donate 2,000 dollars to three different charities. Some people think that this is a worthless thing to do, and that they’re throwing away their money. Some think their right, but the Pucketts beg to differ.

personality:
Madison is a very outgoing and talkative kind of person. She loves to act, but her life in mainly focused on the art of fashion. In fact, she's so interested in clothes, that the catalog, teen vogue accepted her to model several of their new designs. She's been modeling and acting for over three years now, and so far she's tried out for twenty commercials, and gotten a part in over fifteen of them. She has also voiced-over in four successful movies, and two unsuccessful. Madison had been in three films, two of them she has been the main character, and the other she was a close friend of the director, and got a part as a background character in an upcoming movie, who critics believe to be very popular.
Madison had first taken an interest in fashion at age thirteen. It was when her aunt, and shown up with three fabulous white dresses from le chateau. Her mother, uncle, aunt and sister all agreed that she looked beautiful in it, especially with the silver belt supporting her slim stomach, and a pair of pallid strappy heels.
After that, Madison tries out everything in stores, and usually only ends up buying one thing, two if she's having a good day. Then, when she gets home, she'll take her extra fabric, and then start cutting, sowing, and designing her new clothes until she's satisfied with her results.
history:
Not much has gone on in Madison Hale's life. Well, except her first audition. She was auditioning for a role in the huggies commercial, and her mother, Samantha, was sure she would get it. Bu the whole thing turned out to be a joke when they called her name. Madison still blushes with embarrassment when ever someone mentions it. And... this is were the flashback begins:

"Madison Hale, please come towards the stage." Madison bit her lip nervously, her light brown hair falling down her shoulders in curls. She was a year old. "Madison Hale, please come towards the stage." A man repeated impatiently. Alexa hugged her daughter confidently, picked her up, and plopped her down on the cold wooden stage. Now at this time, Madison was into dogs. In fact, she was so obsessed with that creature, that she actually believed she was half golden retriever. So, when three pairs of icy eyes stared at her, Madison could only do what she did best. She got down on all fours -ignoring the pink frilly dress she had on- and barked quite loudly. The judges were horrified, even an idiot could tell that by the look on their faces. Madison grinned, and wagged her invisible tale happily.

religion:

ethnicity:
Caucasian
personality:
Zachary can be called many things: funny, attractive, playful, laid-back, serious, and even heart-broken. Zach has been dumped when he didn't see why, when he knew it was the right thing, and even when he didn't know. So now Zach is practically taking a break from girls. If they only break his heart, why should he bother with them?
With a strong sense of humor, Zach doesn't care much for the serious type. He doesn't want anymore drama if he can help it. Though Zach can find almost anything to joke about. He can easily turn a dark situation into a room full of laughter.
Zach has been into sports since he could walk. He has visited California many times and now he is addicted to surfing. If he could say so himself, he isn't bad either. Some sports he is better at than others but as long as he is doing something Zach is fine. He likes to say he has a medical condition that won't let him sit still not doing a thing. Some could call it ADHD but Zachary will just smile.
history:
Zachary's life was pretty normal. He grew up in a small town with his older and younger sisters. But there was one thing missing: a father. At first Zach didn't notice the lack of a male-rolemodel. But when he was 14 he really noticed the difference. He was lost in a world full of girls. From then he tried to loose all signs that he lived with only girls. He cut his hair, he changed the way he dressed, and he even excluded from his family.
Then Zach set a goal to find his father. His mother said he had left to California so Zach took the clue and ran with it: all the way to California. He planned on waiting in the sun, asking questions, and such until he got a clue on his father. But even Zachary West couldn't resist all the great things that California has to offer.
other:
He has a pet Black Lab named Glee.

Zach stands around 5'10. He's lightly build and his sparkling blue eyes always seem to catch people off guard. He has the perfect skin for a tan though he's found that he burns rather than tans. So it's somewhere in between tan and pale. Not that he worries about it.

Rose Williams

personality:
How does one describe Rose Williams? Rose doesn't like to be put down. As all do, but she cannot stand it. Rose will fight for whatever she believes in, whether it may be her friends or some person she didn't even know being picked on. Rose has a strong temper and she isn't afraid to use it. Sometimes her temper was gone from her control and she's ruined several friendships that way.
But mostly Rose is a ball of energy. She isn't afraid to say what's on her mind. And she isn't afraid to trust others. No matter how many times someone has hurt her, she welcomes everyone with open arms. Her life has shaped her to what she is now: a girl out of the flow.
Though Rose can listen well. She has yet to fail to comfort someone when they really need a shoulder to cry one, male or female. She can be one of your best friends or one of your worst enemies. Her bite is almost as bad as her bark.
history:
Rose grew up in sunny California. She can't understand why others don't like the warm sunshine. Granted, she can understand why some don't like when its humid and 104 degrees.
When Rose was 15 she got into her first relationship. 2 months later it ended terribly for Rose. She was scarred for life at how guys could be so... heartless. She was bitter for a few weeks before she let love come back to her. She is still worried to get serious. From then, Rose had a strong bond with her parents. Her mother seems to understand her better than anyone, her father a close second. For a while, she wasn't very social. But anyone could figure out that you cannot dampen Rose Williams.
other:
She recently taken up a job as a life guard.

Rose Williams isn't exactly the tallest person around at 5'5. Her simmering green eyes are always changing, never the same shade of green as the day before. She is also too pale for someone who lives in California. That doesn't stop her from lounging on the beach all day.

Mackenzie Julian Puckett yawned tiredly, and leaned back in
his airplane seat. The flight from Stanford to California was
a long one. But it’s coming to an end… Mac thought
pleasantly as he heard the pilot’s voice over the speakers.
We are now preparing to land… please fasten your seat
belts, this may be slightly bumpy. Thank you for attending
Alaska Airlines. And with that, the plane dropped to the
ground, followed by a large thud and a baby crying
in the seat in front of him.
After another hour of attempting to quiet the kid, retrieve
his luggage and find a taxi, Mackenzie was exhausted. With
a worn out sigh, the brown haired boy dragged himself into
the back seat of the cab, curled up in a tight ball, and then
squeezed his eyes shut.
Two hours later, Mac woke up to the driver yelling at a girl to
get off the street. ”What…?”[b] Mackenzie asked in a
confused voice. The man turned his head, and smiled broadly.
[b]”Good to see your awake! He said excitedly. ”Um…
thanks?” Mackenzie replied with a frown. Well, that was
strange. Most people didn’t greet him with that much enthusiasm.
Then something hit him. The inside of the car smelt of pot and
beer. ”Hey… Have you been drinking?” Mackenzie asked
curiously.
”Sure have!”
“What?”
“Yeah, I drink all the time.”
“Well, are you sober?”
The driver laughed. ”Son, I haven’t been sober in years.
As the time passed, Mackenzie wondered if the man would end up
killing them both. But as they passed several beaches and cabins,
Mackenzie spotted his own at the end of the street, right along the
sand. Mackenzie didn’t thank the man, but he gave him his money,
and was off without a second glance.
His cabin was beautiful. Two large comfy looking chairs sat in front
of a fire, accompanied by an old brown couch. There were two bed-
rooms, one for him, another for a guest. There was a kitchen, with white
a fridge, counters, sink, stove, dishwasher and tiles. There were a couple
closets, and one bathroom. If was pretty much all he could ask for.
But Mackenzie didn’t want to waist his afternoon admiring his new home, he
wanted to hit the beach. So, Mac stripped down into just his shorts, and
headed for the dock.

******

Madison Alexandra Hale walked down the beach, her fingers fitting perfectly
in her boyfriends’ firm grip. He looked down at her, as she looked up at him.
They both smiled, and then stopped to hug. Madison had never been so in
love in her life. “I love you…” She breathed, and his response made her
heart skip a beat. ” “I love you too Elena.”
Cut!”
The director walked up to her, a grin on his face. ”That was great Madison,
just next time make sure to have more emotion in your voice, okay?” Madison
nodded, assuming this compliment meant she was doing well.
She then glanced up at Julian Orago’s face, and grimaced. Had she actually just
spoken those words to him? He was hot and all, with tanned skin, and blonde
hair. In fact, he resembled some sort beach god, but he was an ass. And she had
to deal with him for this movie which sucked, but she didn’t have a choice; He
was the lead boy, and she was the lead girl. In the end, she would have to make
out with him. She shuddered at the thought, and then turned to leave, seeing that
she was done for today. That hour of acting, just got her around four, to five thousand
dollars, and she would definitely make out with any guy for that amount of money.
”Don’t miss me too much!” She heard Julian yell,
along with a few laughs from behind him. Just as Madison opened the door, she twisted
her body to face them, fingered all three boys, and then left, chuckling at their
shocked faces.
Outside, Madison was greeted with a burst if fresh air, and warm sunlight that shone
deliciously on her back.

Zachary West groaned as an annoying beeping noise blasted loudly. He still wasn't used to the time change. He slammed the clock radio off and buried back under the covers and pillows. So far, he enjoyed California. As long he was sleeping. But Zach was feeling more refreshed already. After a moment trying to pull himself away from sleep, Zach sat up and rubbed his light blue eyes. He planned on heading into town and searching the nearest book store. His mother had told him his father was a writer. So he needed to find out if any of his father's books were being sold.

His blonde hair a horrible mess, Zachary stumbled into the bathroom. He hurried to shower. The hot water was strangely uncomfortable. After washing the sleep from his eyes Zach dressed in a pair of swim shorts and a white V-neck. He had already learned that you never knew when you were going swimming in the ocean when he was at California. Zachary stepped out into the sun, his aviator sunglasses on his face, and headed down a block. He was then on the beach. From there he walked along the beach towards the nearest book store. So far he had also learned that sand felt amazing on his feet. Where do I go from here? He sighed quietly to himself and watched the waves pound the beach. He needed a more definite plan.

Rose's whistle stung through the air. She motioned for the two boys wrestling in the cold sea water to come to shore. She hated when young, foolish, boys messed up with her beach.
"You could hurt someone, please be more careful." Rose called to the boys from her perch on the life guard stand. Why should she sit under the roof when she could sit on it to sun bathe? Rose watched the rest of the young kids playing in the thin water. She glanced at her phone. Her replacement was suppose to be here any minute...
But Rose didn't mind. She couldn't stay away from the beach. The sun was too hot, the water too perfectly chilly, and over all, it too beautiful. It was her drug in a way. Rose couldn't wait for the parties to start. With a large bon fire and yummy s'mores, Rose loved everything about them. She wouldn't do a party any other way.

A song played through Rose's head as she lay on her stomach, her eyes always on the water. She ran a hand through her colored hair. I need a shower... She thought with a flicker of a smile. After she got off the beach she would head to her house, shower, and probably figure out what her friends were up to. Though Rose's attention was taken from the people in the water for a moment. A large sea gull swooped down and stole the popcorn she had been munching on. It flapped away with its catch. Rose gasped and leapt to her feet.
"You evil little bird!!" Rose growled at the sea gull before sitting back down, crossing her legs this time. She would have to be more careful in the future. Rose laughed bitterly to herself. Wasn't that what her parents always told her every time she got in trouble? Precisely.
