Their kiss continues for several minutes, and would have continued longer had Kay cell phone not rang.
" Throw it the water." Brian grumbled and glared at the offending phone.
"What kind of person throws a cell phone in the water?" Kay shook her head as she prepared to answer the phone when Brian hand stopped her.
"I've done it, it's simple." He snatch the phone from her hand and had over his head when, she pinched him forcing him to drop the phone." Ow."
"It could be important." She rubbed the spot where she pinched as she used her other hand to answer the phone." Hello?"
"KAY."
The yell forced Kay to push the phone away from her ear. "Stop yelling Ethan." She patted her ear trying to stop the ringing, and watched the slow smiles build on Brian's face.
"See, I said throw it in the water."
She glared at she brought the phone back to her ear an ignore him." Hi, Ethan."
"I'd apologize for screaming but I'm mad at you."
"For what?"
"You left town without telling me."
"Oh, Ethan I going out of town for a few days."
"Funny, but you don't want to know that thoughts that went through my head when I arrive on the pier and found his boat gone." The empty dock had scared Ethan senseless, he first thought had been that Brian had run and taken his sister with him. He had run home to his father ready to blame him for his sister's departure, when he ran into Grace, his relief had been immediate, and the anger had followed soon after.
Kay dropped her head. "I'm really sorry Ethan, but there didn't seem to be that many people that cared where was I going, so I didn't think to tell anyone but my mom." Brian made a move to comfort her but she waved him off, and he retrieve to go get their shoes from the log.
"Yeah, about Brian."
"Ethan not again."
"No, I just wanted to let you know that I like Brian, I did when I first met him, and I still do." "The part where he's making out with my little sister is less likable, but I can deal."
"Thank you Ethan, that means a lot." And it did Ethan was one of only about four people that she looked up to, and having her brothers approval along with her mother's almost made up for the fact that her father didn't. "Look I'm sorry that I didn't tell you, but how bout I make it up to you."
"Really how?"
" When I get back you can help me move into my dorm." She laughed at the groan that filled the receiver.
"You really know how to make a guy feel better Kay." He laughed. "I'll see you when you get back from Bermuda."
"Bye E, I love you."
"I love you too little sister."
She hung up and the phone and wiped a tear form her eye, as she felt Brian arms come around her." Good news, Ethan's likes you."
"I'm glad, but know that even if he didn't it wouldn't had mattered to me."
"I know." Brian began leading her back toward the hotel, but she stopped him. " Would you mind terribly if we stayed out a little longer."
"No, in fact I have an idea."

Back in Harmony
"Hi Ethan." Theresa had seen him earlier, but he had been on the phone.
"Theresa, how are you?" The smiles that developed during his conversation with Kay widened at the sight of Theresa, even with all the lies he couldn't help that he still loved her. "How's the baby?"
She rubs her stomach, and smiles." He or She is doing fine."
Ethan laughs." How did I know that you would want to be surprised."
" Well. What can I say I like surprises." Theresa finally found the courage to broach the touchy subject." So how are things with your Dad?"
The smiles quickly leave he face, as anger takes over." As stubborn as ever, he won't even mention Kay's name, he says and I quote' until she returns to her senses and see the bastard for what he is', he being unreasonable." "I'm almost ashamed to call him my father."
"Don't feel so bad, Luis and Miguel are just as stubborn." She rubs her arms as the air becomes chilly.
"Oh god, I'm so stupid." He takes her arm and leads toward the Book Café, not noticing the electronics store where the weather channel is being shown.
" Well, ladies and Gentleman it is officially Hurricane season, and since they have already been named them it only makes sense that they are several already on the map." The young man moves back and begins pointing toward the map." There is a small level 2 hurricane headed for the New England area, that will hit the coast lines pretty hard." "There is also a hurricane headed for Florida that may even touch parts of Georgia." "The biggest hurricane we have on the map is headed for the Bermuda area, already name Hurricane Nicole, this level 5 hurricane will probably hit sometime after midnight."

Back in Bermuda
The lights flicker on and off in the hotel, as Liz tries again to get a signal on the radio. "Doc, have you heard anything yet."
"No, I been tying to get someone on the phone, but no luck yet. " He hung up the phone and looked around the deserted lobby, most of the guest having run to their rooms." I think there's a storm coming."
"No really." Liz nods her head toward the window where the rain is pelting the windows with a deafening force. "I'm just glad that everyone is safe, this doesn't look good."
Brain and Kay ran the rest of the way back to the boat; the rain had started once they reached the docks. "We made it."
Kay looks down at her self and the clothes clinging to her body." Brian we're soaked, that's not making it, that's getting caught in it. "
Brian takes out a large towel and opens his arms for her, as she steps into them he begins to dry her off." I meant that we made it to shelter." "This storm is going to be nasty, we're probably trapped here at least for the night."
Kay steps and takes off he tank top, and gives a seductive grin." But at least we trapped together."
Brain sits down on the bed and pulls her to him." Well since we're trapped."

Somewhere close by
"Sir, there's a storm coming, we should go in."
The man continued to watch the rain fall form the his place on the balcony,
"Sir I really think…"
"That's your problem, you're thinking." He steps further out on the balcony leaving the security of the shade from the rain. " You think the storm won't hurt you if you hide from it, you're worn if it wants you, it will take you." "Hiding can never truly protect you."

Coming Soon:
The Storm has begun, what and who will be left when it's done.
