Here we are again. Picking up about a half an hour after we left off. One pair is up to their waist in sea water with a short board next to them and the boy explaining things with his hands frantically.
" I have a feeling this is going to be kind of funny" Louis said.
" And I have a feeling we may get some colorful langue lessons today," Tawny said.
She was right. About that time, Randy lost her balance and smacked the water hard. When she came up the cry of ouch and something else rang across the air.
" Wow, I didn't think someone our age knew all those words," Louis said.
" Oh, believe me, that's nothing," Tawny laughed
" I still can't see how they got it going on so good," Louis said.
" Well, she's not just one thing. I mean, she's really complex. Always has been. Right now she's a biker, rocker, nature lover, soulful, kinda a beach bum in the works, and she's taking up kick boxing. And that's just today," Tawny explained as they watched Randy again try to get up with Twitty's hand guiding her a bit. This time she stayed up longer and when she started to fall, she let herself down.
" Sounds kind of like someone else I know," Louis said softly
" Oh? Who?" Tawny said.
" You," Louis replied.
" Me?" She said.
" Yeah. The rebel with some kind of deep harboring cause that likes to be daring but also likes musicals," He said laughing a bit at the end.
" When did yo get so deep?" She asked him
" I've always thought this way, I just tend not to show it too much," He said.
" Well you should," She responded, " I like it,"
The day progressed on and the four packed their things up and readied themselves to catch the evening ferry back into the port. With bags and cases in hand, they waited, and waited, and waited a bit more. Soon, they grew weary of waiting and sat down and tried to pass the time.
" Hey," Twitty said, " What exactly did you write last night ,or this morning, or whatever?"
" A song," Randy replied nonchalantly
" Well, I know that dork. But I thought you didn't know how to write music," He said in return.
" I never said that. I just haven't tried. I can play anything and about everything. Guitar, bass, drums, and the keys a little bit," She said calmly.
" Well, are you going to let me see?" he finally said.
"Okay, okay," she said handing him the notebook as he got out his guitar.
He began to play over it offhandedly. It was pretty up beat and different.
" Man, this rocks. You gotta play it at Steve's party," Twitty said
" Steve?" Randy asked
" My dad. Twitty is suppose to supply entertainment but there's not going to be a singer or a drummer since me and my sister both will be involved. Yeah, we don't have a bassist either," Louis said.
" Well, I guess I can help in two spots and I know of someone that can play the drums. Now, what would you do without me?" Randy said.
" Be without those things," Tawny said as they stood when they caught sight of the boat.
