PREFACE:
"I still can't believe our luck," Summer mumbled beneath her long blond hair that hung almost down to her waist. The rain was pouring down little tear drops onto the pavement as she and Casey looked out the car's window at the small beach. Everyone that had inhabited on the beach for the day had disapparated at the first sight of storm clouds. "You had this whole night planned just for us to sit on the beach and now we cant." Summer frowned. The frown was so disappointing Casey pulled her to him in a swift motion. Summer leaned her head on his shoulder and sighed. The rain was pouring even harder now and you could no longer hear thousands of individual pattering drops of rain- only a large gush of water washing over the roof. The waves were getting higher as they crashed down with extreme force against the harmless white sand. It was a small beach in a small town outlining the east coast.
"Hey, at least we're still together- alone," Casey said smiling.
"Very true," Summer murmured turning towards him. Casey leaned forward pressing his lips lightly against hers. Summer returned the kiss as it became stronger. He cupped her face in his hand and her hands ran through his brown hair. Their lips parted and the just sat there for a moment breathing in each others air and listening to the rain.
Neither of them bothered to look outside.
Casey caressed the ends of her hair as she traced his lips. They were both smiling at the thought of this alone time. Why are we still sitting in this same spot by the beach, somewhere deep in Summer's mind thought. The deepness though still couldn't keep the thought from rising to the top of her mind. She turned her head to look out the window- and started to panic. Casey followed her gaze.
The rain had suddenly cleared from the windows and the two of them could see outside the car was no illusion. Out in the distance, getting closer by the second, was a wave stories tall. Summer started screaming and Casey grappled for the keys, but they fell out of his hand and down under the drivers seat.
"GET OUT! GET OUT! GET OUT!" She was screaming.
"The keys-" he said fumbling to find them under the seat.
Summer tried to open the door unsuccessfully, for the lock was stuck. She slammed on the windows frantically trying any way to get out.
"Were stuck!" She was still pounding on the car door.
"Back up," Casey said and he finally pulled up the seat.
The keys were not under it.
Wide eyed he said, "We're not getting out."
"What?" Summer stared at him.
"It's impossible- no matter how hard we try, somethings not letting us get out," He siad sadly. By thern the wave was so close to shore it seemed taller than the empire state building.
Summer started to cry. Casey held her to him. Roaring had surrounded them- finally the wave had come.
They both closed their eyes and took a deep breath just a the water rushed in. It filled everywhere as it engulfed the car. Then the blackness overcome without even any goodbyes.
Maybe, for they knew that this wasn't the last time they'd see each other.
