It didn't take much to make the redhead perk up.  A smile lit her face when both of the other girls agreed to head to the beach, and Lihua had even mentioned volleyball.  Okay, so first impressions were never that accurate and it took time to get to know anyone really well.  She rocked onto her toes as her hands instantly came out of her pockets.<br/><br/><strong>"Awesome,"</strong>she said with all the excitement she was feeling.  Then glanced at Sophia and gave the girl a shrug,<strong>"probably a public beach.  Dunno, haven't been there yet.  Though considering we're the only ones around on the island, it might belong to the school.  I'd still consider that pretty public.  Definitely not nude, though I'm sure you'll only get compliments if you're that daring.  Volleyball, on the other hand, we might just be able to find.  You play in high school?"</strong>she asked Lihua.<br/><br/>Even as she waited for her flat mate to respond, Nikki's mind moved to the exact two piece she planned on wearing and tried to remember which suitcase it was currently in.  It was likely in one of the two old, green suitcases she'd had since she stayed with her grandmother, on her father's side, for a summer in Southampton when she was ten.  Her mother had tried to get rid of the pair of old suitcases a dozen times over and Nikki had put a stop to it each time.  They held sentimental value, even if they were old and worn.<br/><br/>Once Lihua answered, Nikki made a suggestion.<strong>"How 'bout we go change and then talk as we walk to the beach.  I'm sure we all want to get to know each other better."</strong><br/><br/>She wasn't all that concerned about music.  Her tastes were pretty mainstream and that inevitably meant that she'd like something someone was playing.  If they didn't - they were three cute girls - it'd be easy to talk a guy into playing something they liked, as long as it wasn't too off the wall.
