Claire's POV
I just finished clearing the land, feeding the animals, and planting a few seeds. It's 5 o'clock now and I am deeply exhausted and I lied on the grass.
My eyes are going to close anytime now. But to be honest, I am excited for later because me and my best friend are going to hang out on the beach. I am going to put aside all of my tiredness today. I really don't know what he's planning but all I can say is that I am really excited.
I started walking towards my house. I opened the door and noticed that I really needed a shower because of the reflection that I've just seen on the mirror. My hair is a mess and I look haggard. Not to mention, I am starting to get stinky because of the hard work I've put today. Well, I know that Gray is not going to mind because we used to call it "THE SWEET SMELL OF HARDWORK". We were used to it, but of course, being tonight the first hang out of me and Gray in many years... I thought I'd like to become more presentable.
I stepped into the shower and removed all my clothes. I turned on the water and wet my hair. I applied shampoo, and cleaned my body.
I stepped out of the shower. I went to my room and noticed that all my other clothes were left in the city. I'll take note to contact mother to send the others. All I have is a yellow sundress. Well, I have others, but all of them are for farming.
I put on my underwear, and put on the sundress, though it will be too cold at the beach at night time wearing this. I put up her hair in a messy bun and didn't bother to put any make up at all. I was a girl that didn't put make up on at least it's really a special and formal occasion.
I grabbed her jacket and put on her shoes. I looked at the clock only to know that I was 15 minutes late. I totally forgot to keep track of the time. Then, I started to run for the beach.
I ran as fast as I could and didn't stop running until I reached the square. I inhaled and exhaled while taking the route to the beach.
I smelled the salty and breezy air and saw a figure near the shore. I walked sneakily towards it. When I was near him, he stood up and sighed. He looked at his phone probably checking the time. Maybe Gray thought I wasn't coming.
I only thought of one thing to do to cheer him up and to show him that I would never ditch him.
"Hey Gray, do you think you're the only one who can do this? Don't you?" I said while wrapping my arms around his body.
