It was an extremely hot day in Adventure Bay. Of course, it could also be because it was mid-summer, and with the sun beaming down on all of its citizens, one might think Adventure Bay was more of a desert than an Island.
Since it was so hot out today, Ryder thought it would be a great idea to go to the beach with his best friends. They all had agreed, and now the nineteen year old was waiting for the others near the door of their lookout tower. Luckily, the building was much cooler inside than the out. Suddenly, hearing a noise from behind him, Ryder turned around to see a teen no older than he is carrying a dark blue towel, a picnic basket, and some other things. The teen had bronze-colored skin, black hair that shimmered gold in the sunlight, a very nice tone body, packing around 5 or 6, amber-glowing eyes, and was wearing dark blue trunks with yellow stars on the side.
"Hey Chase. You ready for a swim?" Ryder asked, looking at the boy before him. Chase smirked, eyes glittering with excitement and mischievousness.
"You bet! Zuma and I are having a competition of who can catch the biggest wave!"
"And that's going to be me, dude." A voice said out of nowhere. The two turned around to see a boy, with dark brown hair, skin as dark as milk chocolate, green eyes with a hint of yellow, and was wearing a bright orange swim trunks standing there, an orange towel under his arms. Zuma smirked at Chase, walking towards him and Ryder. "Dude, I got this suwfing competition in the bag."
Chase's smirk grew.
"In your dreams!" He said, making Ryder chuckle just as Rocky became the next person to come in view. The smaller male, but not the smallest, as that title belongs to Rubble, was stumbling across the room, wearing a green floating tube around his waist, and matching water wings on his arms.
"O-Okay, I think I'm ready." He stuttered out, looking over at the things he'd packed. Rocky was the only one of the team that had grey hair, with hints of white, and while he had suffered bullying because of it, having people assume he's old, it was really his and all natural, despite being only sixteen. There's also the fact of his wounded ear, which many, including the team, had wondered about, but never questioned. He was also pale-skinned, eyes almost the same as Chase's, and kind of lanky compared to the rest of the team, aside from Marshall. He was also deathly afraid of water, but he had hope to get over it today.
"Wocky, awe you suwe you got evewything? You didn't fowget to pack the entiwe Lookout, did you?" Zuma laughed, ignoring the playful glare he got from Rocky.
"Ha ha, very funny. I just want to make sure everyone is safe and well-equipped for the beach, and especially Marshall. You guys know he can't be out in the sun for too long." He said, earning himself a sigh from the side of him.
"Rocky, don't be a mother hen. Chase does that enough already." Said the white teen before him. Likewise with Rocky, Marshall also has a unique trait about him that often times put people off - his skin. Naturally born as white as snow, his skin really is delicate as it seems, because Marshall is the one that gets sunburn rather easily, and is often times confused with an albino because of it. Marshall had to explain many times to people that he was not an albino, because he didn't lack color neither his eyes or his hair for that matter. Once people found out that his skin was all natural, they of course, head out to tease him, often times calling him powder. It was rather embarrassing, but the eighteen year old learnt to deal with this. Especially since Chase had given him an adorable nickname Snow White.
What? He may act as though he hates it, it was still adorable in his eyes.
Thinking about the nickname made Marshall blush and shook his head, midnight black hair falling slightly out of place on his forehead.
"Hey, I am not a mother hen! I just worry about you is all." Chase muttered, ignoring his heated cheeks as the rest of the group laughed.
"I'm here! I'm not late, am I?" Rubble asked, stumbling out of the elevator in his yellow shorts. The boy was chubby, with light brown hair, skin the color of caramel yet a speck of white around his right eye, eyes honey-brown, and of course had his pale and shovel along with his yellow towel and huge floaty with him. Ryder smiled.
"No Rubble. We're not leaving until all of us are ready." He said, causing Rubble to let out a sigh of relief.
"That's good. So, who are we missing?" He asked. Ryder shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, there's me, Chase, Zuma, Rocky, Marshall, and now you. All we're missing is-"
"Here I am!" A voice squeaked, startling Rubble, to jumped about a foot in the air, which the stunt was met with giggles. Turning around, the boys jaw dropped as they Skye in her two-piece pink bikini, light brown curly hair tied into a ponytail, pink towel in her arm and flower-shape sunglasses on the top of her head. She couldn't help but giggle at their reaction. "Come on...we live here for about two years now, and you're telling you've never a girl in a bikini before? What would Katie say, Ryder?"
"Er, right. It's just...very new, since we're so use to seeing you in a one piece Skye." Ryder stuttered. Skye just winked at him.
"Well, I'm a big girl now. Come on, speaking of Katie, she and Everest are waiting down at the beach! We should hurry!" She said, running past the boys and went out the door. As soon as she took a step outside, she groaned, the heat already getting to her.
"It's...hot." She complained, causing the boys to laugh. Ryder turned to the others and smiled.
"To the beach, everyone!"
This is probably the worst way to start a summer-romance story yet. Eh, oh well. More focus on the romance than the actual summer part, and especially since I'm drifting to a new turf - Skye and Everest! Not exactly new, they have been on my Couples-That-I-Think-Looks-Cute-Together list for a while, and yes I do plan on doing another Skye x Everest story soon. Like I said, it's gonna be after I finish United though, and while the focus of THAT story is split into three (Skye x Everest, Chase x Marshall, Rocky x Zuma), Skye x Everest is really the star of that story. The info is in my profile if you want to know what it is about. And yes, lovepawpatrol and SilverWolf, this is the story your characters are going to be in.
Pairings (Since Fanfiction can only allow four characters, yet I can only discard two that I don't want in the filter. GG)
Skye x Everest
Chase x Marshall
Zuma x Rocky
Rubble x OC
Silvex x Max (I do not own these characters, Silvex belongs to Silverwolf and Max belongs to lovepawpatrol)
Ryder x Katie
Jake x OC (but only mentioned like once) and some OCs x OCs. These are none important, despite their relations to a certain character I want.
AND NO ASKING IF I'M WILLING TO CHANCE THE PAIRINGS! IF I WANT TO MAKE A CHASE X SKYE FANFIC, I PROBABLY WILL AT SOME POINT! BUT FOR NOW, I'M ON THE CHASE X MARSHALL OTP TRAIN! TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT! THAT IS ALL!
