The evening's dream date was Monica's and the limo headed downtown Tulsa to an Italian restaurant. "This place smells great." Jessy squealed. "Mmm italian, my favorite." Chele said. "My favorite first and that's why we're here. This one wants to splatter paint on her Hanson and this one wants to drown her Hanson. Thank god I had enough sense to do something sane." Monica said. "Get real girl, you just couldn't think of any thing pg rated to do with your Hanson." Chele teased. "Besides Big Sis you know you're no fun." Jessy teased. "Isaac don't believe them. They're being mean." Monica complained. "You want mean, Isaac I'll tell you about the time Mon..." Jessy tried to say but Monica but her hand over her mouth. "No they are not being mean Isaac, they're just being sisters." Monica corrected herself slowly removing her hand from Jessy's mouth. "I love you too Sis." Jessy said as they were seated and the press arrived. "They sure are beautiful! This was a no pictures sent in contest, how did you three luck out an all three of you pick such beauties. Hey look one blue eyed, the other two brown eyed just like you guys." the reporter asked. "Hun is it like this all the time? I feel like a lab rat, everyone watching." Jessy whispered as she leaned Zac's way. "This is tame Jessy. Are you okay?" Zac asked reaching for her hand. "I am now." Jessy said looking down at his hand holding hers then back into his warm brown eyes as the biggest smile came over her face. "I'm here for you, don't get scared." Zac said kissing her cheek and cameras flashed one right after the other. "Wow you are good I see spots before my eyes." Jessy laughed. "Hun try not looking at them and if they get persistent, look below or to the side when they shoot."Zac explained squeezing her hand. The press hung on their every move and word. "Are they going to follow us into the bathrooms?" Monica asked. "I don't care I have to go." Jessy said rising as Zac rose and pulled out her chair. "Just the perfect gentlman." Jessy said touching his cheek then lightly pressing her lips to his, smiling and heading to the ladies room, her head held high, smiling all the way. "Sis wait" Monica said. "Lil Sis wait." Chele said excusing herself and heading after Jessy. "Sisters, no way. Tell me it isn't true. You three picked sisters? How'd that happen." the reporter asked and Zac told most of the story because it was about Jessy with Tay and Ike adding what they had been told by Chele and Monica. As the girls were returning the owner stopped to introduce himself and the four posed for pictures, soon joined by the guys. They returned to the table as dinner was served and discussed tomorrow's date, Jessy's idea of fun. They day would start with a round of paintball war and move to laser tag in the arcade with pizza. "So what's it going to be, one on one, couples, or guys against girls?" Isaac asked. "I plan on winning so I guess it better be one on one." Jessy said. "Sis you don't want to play with me?" Chele whined. "Only if you're a good shot." Jessy said "I don't know I never shot anything." Chele said. "Not even a water pistol?" Jessy asked. "Nah" Chele said. "Me neither." Monica said. "Good grief, what a handicap." Jessy complained. "Guys against girls." Taylor said. "Oh I see you don't want to play now that you know I don't know how." Chele said turning away from him. "Don't even go there Isaac Hanson." Monica said turning her back to him. "Girls against guys and you'll pay for making my sisters mad." Jessy said excusing herself and heading to use the phone, dialing the Momma's room. "Help Momma Donna" Jessy said when she answered the phone. "What's the matter baby girl?" Donna asked. "Chele and Monica don't know how to shoot and we're playing boys against girls and I hate to lose. Can you and Momma get me some guns and a place to practice. I have to teach them to aim and fire in what few hours we have left." Jessy explained and she heard the message repeated. "Momma says don't worry baby girl, give us at least an hour and we'll be ready for you." Donna said. "Great. Thanks Moms." Jessy squealed with delight, saying goodbye, and heading back to the table. "Jessy I know how much you want to win, we can play one on one so you're not stuck with me." Chele said. "Or me." Monica said. "No way, we're sisters and they might as well find out what we're made of now. We're not quitters. Right?" Jessy asked. "Right" Chele and Monica yelled. They finished, posed for more pictures, then loaded in the limo for the ride back to the hotel. Once there, the girls quickly changed and headed to their Moms' room to prepared for the battle. They had talked to the owner of "KerSplatt" where the girls would be playing in the morning and he was in the parking lot with his semi trailer / mobile paintball arena, to give the girls lessons. "Your just the greatest. How much did it cost, my college fund?" Jessy asked not wanting to hear the answer. "It's on him, so you make sure and thank him. It's good for business if you look good he said. So get girls, he's waiting out back." Momma said. "Let's go." the girls squealed racing to the stairwell and barrelling down to ground level then taking the back exit and racing to the semi. The girls introduced themselves, and got busy teaching Chele and Monica all there is to know about aiming, trajectery. Within in an hour the two were great aims, and the worked on strategies of not getting hit, dodging the paintballs. The girls learned to shoot on the move and their aim improved. They thanked Mr. Johnson for all his help and promised to give it their best shot bringing laughter to them all. The girls waved by as the big rig pulled out and they headed back inside. "Where have you been?" Zac asked noticing them getting off the elevator. "Hey babe, just some girl stuff we had to deal with. So did you miss me?" Jessy asked noticing Ike and Tay in the hallway now. "Sure I did, I thought maybe we'd do something together. The pool closes in fifteen minute and umm, we sort of rented it so we could swim if you want to." Zac asked. "I'm game. I love the water, you know that." Jessy said taking Zac's arm and heading to their rooms. "Hun did you run this by our Moms?" Jessy asked. "Yeah that's why I was waiting on you, they said sure and that you should be back soon." Zac said opening her door. "Babe why don't you run the key to our Mom's and let them know we are back and headed to the pool." Jessy asked kissing his cheek handing him the key and going in to change into her suit, selecting the blue bikini she had bought and heading into the bathroom to put it on. She finished about the time Chele, Monica , Tay and Isaac had finally made peace. "Whoa poor Zac." Isaac said. "You're a knock out in that suit Sis." Chele said. "You guys coming or do Zac and I get the place to ourselves?" Jessy asked hanging up her dress then slipping into shorts and a top. "Zac and I are headed down. We'll see you there." Jessy said slipping on her sandals and heading next door to see if Zac was ready. "Wow you're fast. Come on in." Zac said. "Hun you've only taken off your shoes. Where's the nintendo game?" Jessy teased. "Um more distracted. I sort of have a hard time concentrating around you Jessy." Zac confessed. "You're embarassing me." Jessy said hugging, adding, "I'll help." Jessy said unbuttoning his shirt, her eyes getting bigger as she saw his chest and belly. "Umm I'm over my head here." Jessy said. "I'll go finish in the bathroom Jessy. You wait right here." Zac said sitting her down on the bed and disappearing into the bathroom. He was out in a matter of minutes and the two were headed down to the pool in the elevator, "Zac umm I'm probably coming on a lot stronger than I am, cuz like tonight was my first date. I'm not really supposed to date for another year, but Momma made and exception for you." Jessy explained. "Man you sound so much older, I assumed you were way ahead of me dating wise. Tonight was my first date too." Zac said as they reached the main level and headed to the pool area. Once inside the two headed into the pool playing tag and Jessy made a point to always get caught seeings the loser had to kiss the winner. They were locking lips as the other four finally arrived and soon joined them as moans could be heard from all. "Time out." Chele yelled. "Umm I know what I want to do so we better find something else to do or call it quits and head back to the rooms." she finished. "Good idea Chele." Zac said. "But Zac I like kissing you." Jessy said. "Jessy babe it's going to fast, I may not be able to stop if we don't back off now." Zac explained. "Okay Zac I trust you to know what's right." Jessy said hugging him. They played water chicken for a half hour or so and then sat and talked for a while as the girls started yawning, first one then the other. "We better get you girls up to your room." Taylor said as Chele yawned and laid her head on his shoulder. They got dressed and headed up hugging and kissing in the elevators and again at the door to the girls' room before they finally said goodnight after making plans for breakfast.
