A/N: Here's drabble number twenty-six. I'm in a good mood. And I had a thing with texting. In other news, I'm planning to branch out into other fandoms. I've recently got into Y&R so I'll be dishing out oneshots for that. And maybe Life With Derek this summer, since that show is over but sill alive and kicking. So, you might see my face else.

Disclaimer: Nope. And I'm sad about it, okay?


Timeframe: after the end of Chasing Zoey.

Words: 317

Couple(s): Chase/Zoey.

Inspiration: Nothing really. This just popped out of nowhere. Pray that this drabble doesn't crash and burn, like I know it will. This is actually my shortest one. I just want to finish this story, but I don't want to botch it, know what I mean?


The Little Things In Between

Sunrise & Sunset

"It's really pretty."

Green eyes remain latched onto the canvas of colours blended in the Hawaiian sky and it just adds to the philosophy of stopping to appreciating nature. Feeling blonde hair rest against his shoulder, he lightly pressed his lips to it. A small sigh escapes her lips. There's just something about Hawaii that is so relaxing, giving off a relaxed nature. The outdoor dining area is beautiful with soft breeze weaving in and out, caressing.

"Yeah, Zoe. It really is," Chase replies, with a soft smile on his features. Times stops just for that split second as they watch the big ball of light 93 million miles away from Earth slowly rise in the Maui sky.

And then the reality of being a cabana girl, and a lifeguard appears.

Standing up, Chase takes Zoey's hand, gently pulling her up to her sandal clad feet.

"I don't want to work, but you know," he sighs, raking a hand through his famous bush, and shrugs. " – I gotta make sure nobody drowns."

"Oh," and in that affectionate way, Zoey ruffles his hair with a bright smile in her cabana girl uniform. "My aquatic hero. But I'm still allowed to call you Curly Sue."

"Since when?"

Zoey laughs, because there's that adorable thing Chase does with his eyebrow when he's confused.

"Since right now."

"Oh, that's mean of you. But lucky for you," Chase stops her glossed lips from forming that cute o-shape, and kisses her because honestly, he'll never get tired of that. She kisses him back and everything is where it's supposed to be. "I like you. A lot."

"I like you too, Fuzzyhead."

"Hey, uh, wanna come back and watch the sunset?"

The blonde pecks his cheek, smile never leaving her face, "It's a date."

Chase and Zoey kiss one last time, before tackling another work day.


A/N: Alright. I'm off to take a shower and hit the deck. You know what to do. It's called reviewing. Do it. Please and thank you.
