Though the storm had stopped, the sky was still grey and dark, however parts of the clouds were beginning to clear as small white sections revealing rays from the sun can be shown. The clouds slowly began to make their way West heading back out towards the ocean.
Everyone was shown looking at the ocean on the beach, most of the children were wrapped in towels as the adults were caring for them. Tito had just managed to hook up the speed boat back to the lower pier after clearing it of all empty lobster cages and buckets. After placing the last of the cages and buckets on the ground, he turned to face Raymundo.
"Looks like I arrived at a good time brothery." Tito said with a hint of happiness in his voice as he turned to see that the children were safe and sound on the shore. Raymundo just nodded in agreement.
"Your always on time Tito, If you hadn't arrived, it would have been the end for all of us." Raymundo admitted as he sat down on the bumper of the station wagon looking up at Tito with a smile on his face.
Tito looked once again at the kids, than couldn't help but ask "What caused all this anyway brother?" Raymundo sighed and told Tito the whole story about what had happened in the last three days during his absents, he also explained that Sam had took Otto's bad mood too literally and attempted to perform dangerous stunts just to prove that he can be just as good as him and the others.
Tito looks down in shame, "Like the Ancient Hawaiians always say, those who crushed the coconut is liable to be crushed back." Raymundo just laughed at Tito's quote and just said. "Good to have you back Tito."
Sitting alone on the beaches while the parents discuss their punishment from afar, were the kids. They were still wrapped in blankets Otto Reggie and Twister's clothes were all wet and felt as if they were sticking onto their bodies, Sam had nothing accept for his swim trunks, but while he was under the towel, he could still be seen shivering from lack of sun light.
He then slowly moved his head up and looked at his friends with a large smile on his face.
"Thanks guys, for saving me when you did." Sam said to his friends before sneezing a bit. "No problem, Sam, your our Squid, we can never find another Squid." Twister replied with a smile on his face.
"So..." Otto started off with a bit of nervousness in his voice as he looked at the rest of the kids, "How long do you think we'll be grounded for after this?"
Reggie just shook her head in an I don't know gesture, as Twister just sighed, knowing that once he returns Lars is probably never going to let him live it down.
"I'm sorry for everything that I did, I just wanted to prove to you, that I can be just as fun as all of you." Sam said with his eyes closed tears forming in his eyes.
"Dude you are like us, your good at Math, your a genius in making games, and you sometime shred the skate park on your own." Otto declared with a smile on his face, which caused Sam to feel a slight bit better as Otto finished off, "You didn't have to go that far to prove a point to us, Sam, we already knew that you could master some sports like we do." Otto continued on before concluding his statement, "I'm happy you didn't get yourself killed out there, I never meant anything that I said three days ago, Sammy, I was cranky and having a bad day, thats why I acted the way I did." Otto said finishing off what he had to say with a large smile on his face.
"Thank you guys, AH CHOO!" Sam sneezed much to the humor of his friends. "Okay Reggie, Otto it is time to go home." Raymundo called out from the distance. "Sure thing dad." Otto called back as he quickly got up and raced for the car.
"Yeah dude I think I better go, and get my punishment over with as well, Later Squid." Twister said with a smile as he walked with his parents off the beach and out of sight. Raymundo still didn't leave as Reggie was still with Sam, but he instead decided to give them a moment longer, and just stood there watching them from the distance.
"Here Sam, you might need these." Reggie said reaching into the pocket of her wet pants pulling out his glasses. "Thanks Reggie Sam said with a smile as he reached for them and put them back on again.
He can now finally see Reggie's face again in clear view, after three days of seeing nothing but blurr. "Ah this is so much better, thanks for keeping my glasses, I thought for a second that I got rid of them" Sam stated with a smile on his face, holding Reggie a thumbs up.
"No problem Sammy, I found them on the ground when I first tried to talk to you that day in the Skatepark," Reggie admitted as she soon turned to see Raymundo waiting in the distance, which was clear to her that it was a sign that she now had to leave.
"Well I better get going." Reggie said with a smile as she stood up, just in time to hear Sam's mother call out for him. "I'll be right there Mom!" Sam called out, and in one second grabbed Reggie's hands for a second. "Thank you." He says as he kissed her cheek for just one second and raced off to his mother.
Reggie is left frozen as she slowly feels the spot on her cheek where Sam had kissed her, she can feel her cheeks become red as she smiled happily, as she watched Sam and his mother leave the beach and disappearing out of sight.
The End...
