Subject: Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up...these are the best days of our lives

Kali was with Shay, though it was about her nap time, so the baby was probably fast asleep. She had taken the time to go out to the beach, something she hadn't done since Sky's death. The waves had scared her at first, but now she was back at home atop of them, moving with the water easily. It wasn't a enemy, it was a good friend who had always been there for her. She looked stunning in the black and red bikini, the light, very light tan casting a pretty tone to her skin. Her hair was pulled up in a pony tail, giving her a youthful appearance.

For a moment, he stood still on the beach just quietly admiring her - but then slowly a small frown darkened his features. He was a firm believer in always surfing, and swimming, in partners - especially now, after Sky, and especially considering it was Kaylee, not just another random girl. With a quiet sigh, he crossed his arms over his bare chest, navy and grey boardshorts hanging from his narrow hips. (NT) -- Shay, 16:08:40 06/27/03 Fri
She came in slowly, hanging out in the shallow water for a few minutes, just admiring the powerful waves before she picked up her board and started up the beach - pausing for a moment to undone the ankle catch. (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:10:13 06/27/03 Fri
He approached slowly, cocking a brow as he glanced from the sand under his feet to her. "Where's your buddy?" (NT) -- Shay, 16:11:48 06/27/03 Fri
She looked up, a smile crossing her lips as she saw him. "Chris was here, but he had to run off." She arched a brow of her own. "Where's your buddy?" Referring to their daughter of course. (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:15:42 06/27/03 Fri
He fell silent for a moment at the mention of Chris, withdrawing even before he reached her. "At Adrienne's. Keeps her out of trouble." (NT) -- Shay, 16:18:13 06/27/03 Fri
"Oh yeah? She sleepin'?" He usually brought her with him when he went to the beach, the baby adored the sand and water. Her gaze travelled over him, noting the way he had kind of hung back. She knew it was because of Chris, but the man was her friend, she wasn't going to desert him - even if he was in love with her. (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:19:59 06/27/03 Fri
"Yeah, big time nap." He absently scratched his stomach before crossing his arms again. (NT) -- Shay, 16:22:52 06/27/03 Fri
She nodded, feeling a little awkward thanks to his attitude. "You two have a big day?" (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:25:04 06/27/03 Fri
He reached out to absently brush a stand of her head behind an ear, nodding a touch. "Yeah, she same to the gym with me to pick up my check and we went for a swim. Then we went out for lunch and icecream." (NT) -- Shay, 16:27:03 06/27/03 Fri
She smiled a little at the touch. "Sounds fun." Her gaze drifted for a moment before she looked back to him. "What are you up to now?" (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:30:17 06/27/03 Fri
"I thought you'd be out here..." He couldn't help but mirror her small smile - he always seemed to have an idea where she would or wouldn't be, and if she was or wasn't feeling okay, or anything like that. (NT) -- Shay, 16:31:43 06/27/03 Fri
Not wanting to hold back any longer, she moved towards him, wrapping her arms around his neck and placing a kiss to his lips - lingering. (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:33:44 06/27/03 Fri
He released a soft sigh and his hands shifted to rest on her hips as he returned the kiss. "What about you?" (NT) -- Shay, 16:39:18 06/27/03 Fri
She smiled as she pulled back a little. "Hopin' you would figure I was out here." (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:42:41 06/27/03 Fri
"Of course I would." He placed a kiss to the side of her neck, arms slipping posessively around her waist. (NT) -- Shay, 16:44:45 06/27/03 Fri
She smiled, cuddling close to him for warmth - and just because she wanted to be there. "I was hopin'." She kissed his jaw in return. (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:47:24 06/27/03 Fri
He caught her lips again, sighing softly against the kiss. "I love you." (NT) -- Shay, 16:48:51 06/27/03 Fri
"I love you too." She murmured, her hand trailing down his jaw slowly, her eyes completely serious. "More then anything, you know that don't you?" She hated him worrying about Chris. (NT) -- Kaylee, 16:54:30 06/27/03 Fri
He was silent for a long moment before nodding, turning his face to place a kiss to her fingers. "I do." (NT) -- Shay, 16:59:40 06/27/03 Fri
She was still regarding him seriously, wanting to make sure he understood. "I don't want you to worry, I want you to trust me." (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:03:01 06/27/03 Fri
"I trust you..." He murmured softly - it was true, he did, he just couldn't help but be a little jealous. (NT) -- Shay, 17:04:54 06/27/03 Fri
She nodded a little, brushing back his curly blonde hair. "Good, no one else is you Shay, not even close." (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:08:59 06/27/03 Fri
He drew her closer and sighed in soft relief. "Me too, Kaylee..." (NT) -- Shay, 17:13:08 06/27/03 Fri
She hugged him tightly, glad she could reassure him a bit. "So serious..." She murmured, smiling a little as she pulled back. (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:14:36 06/27/03 Fri
Smiling a touch, he squeezed her back and kissed her hair. "Me too." (NT) -- Shay, 17:19:09 06/27/03 Fri
She cocked a brow, pulling back a little more to look at him fully. "While we are being all serious...there's somethin' I heard..." (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:21:18 06/27/03 Fri
He cocked a brow and tilted his head, brushing his fingers through her hair. "Oh?" (NT) -- Shay, 17:24:01 06/27/03 Fri
"What happened in New Zealand Shay?" She questioned, her gaze searching his. "Why did you leave? honestly?" (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:25:49 06/27/03 Fri
He fell silent for a long moment to carefully choose his words - there was no way he would lie to her, but he could avoid the truth. "It wasn't the right job for me." But that was something of a lie itself - the job had been everything he had ever dreamed of. (NT) -- Shay, 17:29:22 06/27/03 Fri
"When you got home you said that they didn't need you anymore, and thats why you left. Was that true?" He was starting to make her a little worried. (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:32:05 06/27/03 Fri
"I couldn't stand being away from you, and Kesi, any more, Kaylee..." His voice had softened, holding her close still. (NT) -- Shay, 17:34:25 06/27/03 Fri
Her brow furrowed, looking young and confused. "You lied." She stated the obvious easily, more then a little upset by all this all the sudden. (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:37:09 06/27/03 Fri
"I was afraid you might feel bad..." He murmured, not releasing her. (NT) -- Shay, 17:43:05 06/27/03 Fri
She frowned still, unsure what to make of it all. "I do feel bad, that was a dumb decision Shay, that was a great job...." She didn't know what she thought. She wanted him there with her, but she didn't want him to give up his future for it either. (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:44:04 06/27/03 Fri
"I have a good job here... And it doesn't matter - I couldn't have standed to be away from you any more." He responsed stubbornly - he was content with his decision and felt no regrets any more for his decision. (NT) -- Shay, 17:48:55 06/27/03 Fri
"But you could have been so much more!" She insisted, so confused by it all. "Why did you lie?" (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:50:30 06/27/03 Fri
"Not that much more. Here I teach swimming lessons, there I teach surfing lessons. I told you why - I was afraid you would be upset..." He spoke patiently - always having been good at keeping his cool when she got upset. (NT) -- Shay, 17:54:08 06/27/03 Fri
"But you didn't even ask me or anything, just made the decision all by yourself. I would have understood Shay, that was your dream job and your all playing it off like it was nothing." (NT) -- Kaylee, 17:55:40 06/27/03 Fri
"It was my decision to make, Kaylee." He stated simply, but gently. "I had to choose between my job and my family and I chose the more important one." (NT) -- Shay, 17:58:38 06/27/03 Fri
She frowned, stiffening a little. "Well, I'll remember the next time I have a decision to make, that it's my decision to make." (NT) -- Kaylee, 18:00:29 06/27/03 Fri
He frowned, touching her cheek. "Kay, you know I didn't mean it like that.. It's just, this was something that only I could decide..." (NT) -- Shay, 18:04:12 06/27/03 Fri
She frowned, pulling away just a little bit. She wasn't overly furious or anything, but more just unsettled. (NT) -- Kaylee, 18:06:59 06/27/03 Fri
With a soft sigh, he loosened his hold to let her go as much as she wished, gaze quietly studying her features. (NT) -- Shay, 18:11:01 06/27/03 Fri
She looked up at him, sighing softly. "I messed up your whole future so many times Shayne." (NT) -- Kaylee, 18:14:21 06/27/03 Fri
He shook his head without hesitation, voice soft. "No, Kaylee. I made this decision for myself as much as for you. It's not your fault I love you too much." (NT) -- Shay, 18:19:12 06/27/03 Fri
She sighed, still feeling upset with herself. Her gaze drifted out over the waves, across the ocean, imagioning what life would have been like out there for him. (NT) -- Kaylee, 19:55:47 06/27/03 Fri
Touching her hip, he then slipped his fingers into hers. "I'm happy here, right now, Kaylee." (NT) -- Shay, 20:01:09 06/27/03 Fri
A slight, small though sad smile graced her features as she looked over at him, nodding a bit. She understood his reasoning, and was mostly happy with his choice - but it was still hard to swallow. (NT) -- Kaylee, 20:06:37 06/27/03 Fri
He tugged her gently back to him, ducking his head to kiss her cheek. "I couldn't stand being without you." (NT) -- Shay, 20:08:30 06/27/03 Fri
She sighed heavily once more, her cheek going to rest on his strong chest, still clad in just her revealing bikini. (NT) -- Kaylee, 20:13:14 06/27/03 Fri
Arms tightening around her, his fingers absently travelled over her back. (NT) -- Shay, 20:17:21 06/27/03 Fri
"Wanna stay over with me and Kali tonight?" She questioned, she didn't want to spend the night alone again. (NT) -- Kaylee, 20:19:50 06/27/03 Fri
"Yeah, 'course..." He was spending more and more time at her place, and less on his own, but he really wasn't about to start complaining. Quiet for a moment, he tenderly brushed his fingers down her cheek. "Do you think... We should start thinking about our own place?" (NT) -- Shay, 20:22:18 06/27/03 Fri
She let out a soft breath, her eyes searching his. "Really? You would want to do that?" (NT) -- Kaylee, 20:26:21 06/27/03 Fri
He nodded a touch, he had been afraid that she would object. "Yeah... I've been thinking of it..." (NT) -- Shay, 20:31:28 06/27/03 Fri
"I think....that could be good..." She smiled slowly, biting her lip a little in a nervous apprehension. (NT) -- Kaylee, 20:33:39 06/27/03 Fri
Dipping his head to kiss her tenderly, he smiled affectionately. "Good..." (NT) -- Shay, 20:42:24 06/27/03 Fri
She let out a soft breath as she kissed him in return, her arms going around his neck as she hugged him tightly. (NT) -- Kaylee, 20:46:07 06/27/03 Fri
He tangled one hand in her hair and sighed in quiet contentment. "I don't know how we managed apart for all those months." (NT) -- Shay, 20:49:09 06/27/03 Fri
She smiled a little, tilting her head. "You had all the old crew, and I had Kali...but we are so much better together...." (NT) -- Kaylee, 20:50:09 06/27/03 Fri
"So much better together..." He murmured in agreement and smiled - the time apart really had probably been best for them. He had grown up alot in those few months, and was much more ready now for a family. (NT) -- Shay, 20:52:24 06/27/03 Fri
She smiled up at him, kissing him once more. "I can't believe we are gonna do this." (NT) -- Kaylee, 20:56:57 06/27/03 Fri
Grinning a little, he tugged gently on a strand of her hair. "I can." (NT) -- Shay, 20:58:06 06/27/03 Fri
Her lips parted in a smile, shaking her head. "Crazy...are we just gonna...go apartment hunting? Cuz mine isn't big enough most likely...." (NT) -- Kaylee, 21:04:21 06/27/03 Fri
"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea... We don't have to rush - we can just take our time, find a place we really like...." In the meantime, it was easy enough for him to stay with her or her to stay with him. (NT) -- Shay, 21:10:14 06/27/03 Fri
She smiled tenderly, pressing a kiss to his lips once more, fully. "I love you." (NT) -- Kaylee, 21:11:42 06/27/03 Fri
"I love you." He echoed, hands slipping low on her hips. (NT) -- Shay, 21:17:06 06/27/03 Fri
She sighed in contentment, pressing against him as she shivered, her hand fisting in his shirt. (NT) -- Kaylee, 21:17:58 06/27/03 Fri
"Cold sweetheart?" He murmured softly and held her closer. (NT) -- Shay, 21:21:23 06/27/03 Fri
She nodded a little, her gaze looking up at him. "Little bit, wind is a bit chilly." (NT) -- Kaylee, 21:22:20 06/27/03 Fri
"Wanna go home?" Lip brushing her neck, his fingers absently kneaded the flesh at her hips. (NT) -- Shay, 21:25:26 06/27/03 Fri
"Sure....should we pick up Kali first?" She questioned, her gaze curious. (NT) -- Kaylee, 21:28:56 06/27/03 Fri
He nodded a touch, fingers in hers to tug her slowly towards his car. "I told Adri we would." (NT) -- Shay, 21:48:46 06/27/03 Fri
"So no alone time today huh?" She teased, grinning lightly, following him. (NT) -- Kaylee, 21:54:27 06/27/03 Fri
"You should ask my sister if she'll watch the kid longer... She doesn't like to do her brother too many favors." He wrinkled his nose, smirking a touch. (NT) -- Shay, 22:01:40 06/27/03 Fri
She shrugged a little, kissing his cheek. "We'll get some us time tonight after she goes to bed...." (NT) -- Kaylee, 22:06:03 06/27/03 Fri
"Fine..." He sighed dramatically before letting her into the car.. (NT) -- Shay, 22:08:10 06/27/03 Fri
