Extra: Fun in the Sun
"Come on Pegasus!" Megan ran far ahead of him, moving quickly and never letting her bare feet touch the sun-warmed sand for more than a second.
He followed behind her, wearing sandals to avoid the scalding sand and taking his time. It had, after all, been entirely her idea that they spend the day at the beach. Yet somehow, he was still stuck carrying a picnic basket full of food, tall beach umbrella any whatever other things Megan had thought to stick into the basket.
Megan couldn't stay still for very long on the sand, and ran into the waves. The ocean spray flew around her, sparkling in the sunlight and surrounding her in a glittering frame. She was showing herself off in a not-so-modest bikini in deep red, and her long raven hair tangled itself up in the breeze.
Pegasus blushed a little to see her, being so modest in his own nature. His swimsuit was big and baggy, leaving everything to the imagination. His hair had been tied back, and an eyepatch of the same silvery-purple color concealed his left socket.
"What are you doing?" Megan asked, running back out of the waves and hopping from foot to foot on the sand. "Come on!"
Pegasus barely had time to drop the supplies before Megan grabbed his hand and pulled him into the water. His hair flew behind him and he tripped from her force.
Both Pegasus and Megan fell, laughing, into the water. Megan surfaced instantly, but Pegasus took quite a bit longer. When he finally came up, he did so coughing and sputtering behind her.
"Pegasus?" Megan turned around to see him standing there, silver head completely draped in seaweed.
There was a long pause, and then Megan burst out laughing. She doubled over and giggled incessantly, only stopping to look back at him and start a fresh wave of laughter.
Pegasus blushed, but laughed too. He pulled off most of the flora, but more than a few strands were still tangled with silver.
"Here, let me help," Megan said, curbing her giggles and walking slowly to him through the water. She reached up and pulled the rest of the plant off his head. She kissed him softly, tasting the salt on both their lips.
The rest of the day passed less eventfully. The food Megan had insisted on bringing was delicious, and the two of them spent the entire day together in the sand and surf. They didn't even think of leaving until they sat together on the sand, lightly dusted with it as the sun slipped beyond the waves.
