* Two weeks later, in Hawaii *
Psymon sat in the freshly made snow doing up his bindings when suddenly two arms wrapped around him.
The fellow Canadian's voice rang in his ear, "Hey, do you want to go to the beach after the race? Everyone will be there."
Psymon shrugged and turned his head to give Elise a quick kiss before getting up and pushing off onto the slope.
Elise sighed, turned around and gasped. There, standing in front of her was little miss shortest member of SSX.
Elise got up close to Kaori, "How long were you standing there? Did you see anything?"
Kaori giggled, "Just you and Psymon kissing, nothing big."
The taller of the two stuck her finger at Kaori's nose, "If you tell anyone about that I swear I'll"
Her threat was cut short by Mac coming around the corner.
"Hey Kay, hey El, what's hanging?"
Elise smiled at the two of them, "Oh I was just wishing Kaori luck during the race today. Anyway I got to go practice. Bye!"
Then the blond one of the trio hopped onto her board and sped down the track.
* At the end of the course *
Elise skidded to a stop and quickly plopped down on her bum to remove her bindings. Psymon came over from where he was watching a quick replay of his run and sat on the ground next to Elise. He sighed and began to make a ball out of the snow on the ground.
Elise reached over and lifted his chin up, "Why so glum chum?"
"I'm not a 'chum'", he growled back at her.
She gave the fellow Canadian a gentle punch on the arm, "Come on, and spill."
Psymon gave another sigh and replied, "It's just that next month, there is going to be a week when anyone from your family can come and visit you and I'm going to be the only one with no one coming to visit me."
Elise wrapped her arms around Psymon, "Aw, poor you."
Suddenly Psymon brought something cold and wet down on Elise's head. A snowball. He quickly got up and backed away from her.
"Oh. My. Gosh. Boy are you going to get it!" Elise screeched at him.
She ran over to a huge pile of snow that the workers had shoveled off the track and picked up a huge pile of snow, rolled it into a ball and hurled it at Psymon.
He easily stepped to the left and missed getting hit.
"Come on baby, you'll have to do better than that." He taunted.
Discontented, Elise thought for a moment before challenging him, "I dare you to close your eyes for a minute and I promise I won't get you."
Uncertainty, lacing his voice Psymon agreed.
He kept his eyes closed for a whole minute and when he opened them again Elise wasn't standing where she had been before. She was nowhere to be seen. Psymon began tapping his foot, waiting for Elise to get bored and come out.
He had gotten to 25 when he too felt the same icy wetness on the top of his head.
The tall Canadian whipped around and was just quick enough to grab Elise's wrist.
