Summer 8
"Oh-no! No way! There is no way in heck!" I protested. "Oh, come on." Kai dragged me across the beach. Over the last week, Kai and I had become very good friends, but I will not take this. "Please, let's go to the lake near goddess pond or maybe the river on my farm!" I tried to bargain. "Why are you so dead set against swimming in the sea?" Kai asked. "If I tell you, will you let go of my hand?" I huffed. "Alright." Kai conceded. He let go of my hand and I sat down on the sandy beach. I immediately regretted it, because my bright blue bikini bottom was enveloped in sand. Kai sat down too, his knee length purple swim trunks bright against the sand.
"Okay, when I was 10, my mom and dad went on a cruise for their anniversary. Well, the ship capsized, and both my parents drowned." I confessed. "I'm sorry." Kai said sympathetically. "Does that mean you won't make me go into the water?!"I asked hopefully. "I didn't say that." Kai said sarcastically, before quickly grabbing my wrist. "Pleeeeeeease don't make me do this!" I pleaded. "You're going into the water and that's final." Kai said before pulling me close, and putting one arm under the crook of my knees, and the other one across my shoulders. Then he gingerly lifted me up. I let out a squeak and wrapped my arms around his back, then shut my eyes as hard as I could. After a few seconds I relaxed a little into his strong arms. Kai carried me out in to the sea until the water was at his waste.
He lowered me into the water. Then he let go of my legs, which made me cry out. "Don't worry. Wrap your arms around my neck." He instructed me, witch I quickly did. Kai went father out until the water was up to my shoulders. I shivered and whimpered. "This isn't so bad, is it?" Kai laughed. "This is horrible!" I replied, disgusted. "Alright, come on then." Kai slowly picked me up again and made his way to the shore. Already the sun was almost down.
I, finally on the ground, watched the beautiful gold, blue, and pinks mix together in the sky. Kai put a blanket across my shoulders. I sighed. "So beautiful." I whispered. "Yep." Kai agreed. "How about we do some star gazing?" Kai asked. He spread a towel across the sand and put on a white t-shirt. I set the blanket on the towel and ran into the beach restaurant that Kai owned. I had set my backpack inside earlier. I made sure all of my things were there and came back.
Kai was sitting on the towel. He motioned me over. I sat right beside him. Kai wrapped one end of the blanket around one of my shoulders, and the other end around his shoulder. He put his arm around my waist and pulled me close against his body. I leaned my head on his shoulder. "See that star? That's the first star on the handle of the big dipper." Kai pointed out. I sighed, and as Kai showed me more constellations, I just couldn't hold my eyes open.
"Claire, do you see that one?" Kai asked. He got no response. "Claire?" Still nothing. "She's asleep." Kai concluded. He gently laid her down and got her back pack. He tenderly picked her up, and was almost sick when he saw how limp her body was. But then he saw the rise and fall of her chest, and knew she was alright. He walked down the road, and found every building with its lights off. Once he got to Claire's house, he was glad that the door was unlocked. He laid Claire in her bed and couldn't help himself from kissing her forehead. He left a note on her table and left.
Hope you like it! Well I won't know what you think unless you review! But no flames please! I don't own harvest moon. So thanks for reading, and God bless you!
