The beach

Beginning

"Put a shirt on," Eddie grumbled, leaning back into the sand, letting the sun wash over him as he ran his hands through his spiky hair.

"Why?" Jerome laughed, "Jealous?"

"You of all people to have a six pack. How does that even work? You do like no sport, whatsoever. And…you eat more than Mick!"

Jerome nodded, smiling "Yes I do."

Eddie sighed, looking to the water "I always thought you hated the sun." he stated, shrugging "You never spend anytime soaking up that all important vitamin D." Jerome grinned, about to snap something back to the American, when Mara came up to him, smiling. She was dressed in a red floral two piece, a gift from Amber. "What up, Mara?" Eddie smiled, sitting up "Have you seen Patricia?" Mara shook her head and the tall boy grumbled, standing up and wandering away.

"Jaffray," Jerome grinned, patting the towel beside him "Where have you been? Not avoiding me have you?"

Mara rolled her eyes "Avoid you? Please. That's impossible. You're everywhere," she leaned forward and kissed him. "How about now?"

"No." Jerome sighed, shaking his head, a smile playing on his lips. "I didn't realise you were so impatient, Jaffray."

"Please!" Mara whined.

Jerome looked at her for a moment "Do you really want to see it?" Mara nodded eagerly, and Jerome stood, taking her hand and leading her down the beach.

Line Break

"Oh wow," Mara breathed softly, it was a large opening in the rock, like a whole but it was filled with beautiful, sparkling in the sunlight sea shells. "Oh they're lovely. Jerome, how did you find this?"

Jerome shrugged, watching her "I like to explore,"

"I wonder how they got there," she marvelled, reaching out and stroking one "They're so beautiful,"

"Nothing compared to you," Jerome whispered, suddenly behind her, kissed her neck. Mara leaned back into him.

"Cheesy," she teased and she could feel him chuckle, a low rumble through his body. She liked making him smile, it lit up his face in a way that made him more beautiful then anything in the world, it fascinated her how someone like him could appear so content with someone like her. Suddenly his arms were up and there was something cold around her neck, she almost let out a shriek, when she realised that it was a necklace, he tied it softly for her, before spinning her around.

"There," he grinned. Mara smiled

"Thank you," she turned to look in a blue puddle in the sand and saw the necklace was made out of the beautiful sea shells "Jerome, you really never do cease to amaze me."

"You finally know how I feel about you," he grinned, pulling her to him.

She wrapped her arms tightly around him, wondering how on earth he managed to make her feel like the luckiest person in the world.

She could only hope, she made him feel like that too.
