Chibi-Kari: I thought of this idea when my mom told me that my Grandpa and his
brothers got his mother kicked out of her apartment for doing this.
Max: She doesn't own…
Chibi-Kari: Thank you all for reading and reviewing! I love you all! Oh and one more
flashback.
Max: On with the fic…
Relationships Suck!
Chapter 4-The Oceans Of Our Hearts
"Okay, so you guys made out at every place imaginable. Well, that's not that
bad." Tyson said as he played with the toast sitting on his plate.
"Yeah, well. You guys remember the time you caught me skinny dipping?" Rei
asked as he traced circles on the table.
"Yeah. What about it?" Kenny asked trying to remain calm during this
uncomfortable situation.
"Well, I wasn't alone." Rei said as he looked up at the shocked faces of his
friends.
Flashback
Hilary stood looking over a bridge; the sun was setting and casting an orange
glow over the community. The water was rippling in a soft pattern; the soothing sound
was lulling her into a peaceful bliss.
Suddenly two arms wrapped around her waist catching her off guard. She turned
around and wrapped her arms around Rei's neck. The sun had set now and the
darkness engulfed the area.
"You know you shouldn't scare me like that." She said as she leaned forward to
kiss him.
"How come you asked me to meet you tonight?" He asked brushing some
strands of hair out of her eyes.
"Well, we haven't spent anytime together lately. I thought we should be together
for a little while. Come with me." She said as she pulled he arm and ran down the
embankment, Rei following behind.
When she reached the bottom off the hill she pulled her shirt above her head.
"Wh-at are you doing!" Rei exclaimed as she pulled off her pants.
"I'm skinny dipping. What about you?" She asked as she moved out of his vision
to remove the rest of her clothes.
"You shouldn't do this. I mean we could get caught." He said as he heard a
splash.
She came around into his vision again. The water covering up to her neck, "Are
you scared? I mean you don't have to if you don't want. But you will be missing out."
"I'm not afraid. But what would people think?" Rei said as watched her bob in
the water.
"They will think that two kids decided to go skinny dipping. Nothing more,
nothing less." She said as she disappeared under the water and then brought her head
back up, smoothing her hair back.
"Fine. But turn around." He said as he removed his clothing, "Man, this water is
cold."
"It'll be worth it." She said as she swam over to him, "I'll warm you up."
He laughed slightly as she swam toward him, "Oh will you? That'd be worth it."
"Rei!" Came a male voice, joined by others.
"Shoot. Maybe they won't find us." Rei said as they both swam toward the
bridge.
"Is that you Rei?" A flashlight landed on him. He just had to be a foot behind
Hilary. He couldn't make it under the bridge with her. The gang came forward so that
he could see them.
"Yeah, Max." Rei said as he hung his head slightly the idea of yelling no had
entered his mind but he instantly threw it out.
"Um, what are you doing in the water, Buddy?" Tyson asked looking at him, his
flashlight falling to the ground, "With your clothes on the ground."
"Um…skinny dipping." Rei said as he turned red.
"Alone?" Kai asked cocking an eyebrow slightly.
"Yeah." He laughed nervously.
"Well, why don't you come back with us?" Kenny ask as he laughed
uncomfortably.
"Sure." Rei said as he collected his clothes and put them back on.
The gang walked back in awkward silence. Right before heading back up the hill
Rei looked back and saw Hilary. She mouthed sorry as he shook his head in reply. 'I'm
sorry. Sorry I didn't have five more minutes.' Rei thought bitterly as he took the rear of
the group.
End of Flashback
"Well now I feel bad." Max said, "I interrupted a moment." He said moment
using quotes. Hilary turned red, "I didn't know you were that frisky."
"I'm not. It sounds dirtier than it was. I swear." She said placing a hand over her
heart.
"You shouldn't swear something that isn't true." Max replied. She tried to refute
what he said but was silenced by his hand. "What else?"
"Well that was the last time we got to spend time alone before this morning."
Hilary said looking down at the ground again.
"Well what happened?"
"Shouldn't we go somewhere else? It's noon and that mother is giving you a dirty
look." Hilary pointed over to the very angry woman covering her young daughter's eyes
and leading her out of the park.
"Geeze, it's not like I'm naked; but you guys were. Anyway don't change the
subject." He said looking at her sternly.
