Chapter 7
Sunset Picnic
A loud bark awoke a sleepy teenager. He had been dreaming of his girlfriend getting naked in front of him, but all good things have to end. "Lucky! Shut the fuck up!" he screamed, while burying his head in the pillow. "Ben, you shut the fuck up you lazy shit!" shouted his sister, Sophie. She was busy straightening her hair, as Kimi was rubbing Lucky's belly, in the living room. He began to hum a tune to get the annoying barking out of his head.
"C'mon lazy ass, move!" said his father, as he tried to drag his son out of bed by his feet. But Ben grabbed hold of the top of the bed. His father huffed. "I don't have time for this.. You're gonna miss school." began Wally, while hoping his son will move. "Don't give a shit about school." replied Ben. "Em.. Did I say school, I meant to say your Basketball practice is today." smiled Wally, knowing his son will get up. "It was yesterday." smiled Ben into his pillow. Wally swore underneath his breath. "How about your Football practice?.." asked Wally, while getting hopeful. "They have been cancelled today, but will resume tomorrow." replied Ben, in a mimic of his coach's voice. "Well.. Wrestling?" asked Wally, as he looked like he was about cry. "Don't start until Summer.. This is currently February.." said Ben. Wally stomped his foot. He gave up with his son, and headed down stairs. "What does he take me for.. A fool?" laughed Ben, as he tried to picture Madison in a bikini. It's February.. He thought. What's in February.. Well there's the new carnival that has just opened.. My English exam is in a week, my Football game is at the end of the month, Valentine's Day is today.. Valentine's Day is today… Shit.. Ben's eyes opened wide. He jumped from his bed, and grabbed a towel and quickly ran to the bathroom.
"He's finally up." laughed Kuki. She was singing a soft song; her mother use to sing to her. "Yes.. And I didn't need to drag him." grinned Wally, as he played his video-game. "Can I join?" asked Kuki, while placing the feather-duster on the new see-threw coffee table that always sat in front of the couch. "Sure.. But I will beat ya." laughed Wally. "We will see." giggled Kuki. She sat on the couch beside her husband, and took a controller. They began to battle it out, while their kids ran about the house getting ready for the day ahead.
"Shit.. Shit.. I'm dead!" shouted Ben, as he dried his body, and placed dark blue jeans over his white underwear. "What's the rush bro?" asked Chris who let himself into the house. He stood at the bathroom door, watching Ben pull his dark blue t-shirt over his head. "I forgot it is Valentine's Day." Ben said, as Chris shook his head. "How could you forget.. It's been broadcasted everywhere for the last month." Chris replied. He turned and saw Sophie in a white dress. She had her hair down, with a black headband with a bow on it, that was placed in her hair. In her ears were silver earrings that were shaped like keys. Around her neck was a silver lock, with a tiny key. "I'm ready." smiled Sophie. Chris stared at Sophie's beauty. Wow, he was a lucky guy. "Bye, Ben." giggled Sophie, at her boyfriend's quietness. She grabbed his hand, and yanked him towards the stairs. "Ben!" shouted Chris. "What?" asked Ben, while he walked out of the bathroom to his room. "Just make it special, and from the heart.. Okay." commanded Chris. He then was running down the stairs, with Sophie. Kimi slowly walked up the stairs to her room. She wasn't really feeling well today. Probably the Flu Charlie gave her..
"See ya sis." shouted Ben, as he bolted down the stairs, and into the kitchen. He grabbed two cans of Root Beer, cutlery, plastic plates, and a wooden picnic basket. He quickly ran out the back, and jumped over his fence to the open street.
"I'm walking on sunshine, whoa ..and I feel good.." sand Madison, as she brushed her long brown hair. She gazed at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a white top, with a black cardigan over it. She also wore pink shorts, a white hat with a black bow, and a long pink scarf around her neck. On her feet she wore white sneakers. "He's late." she whispered, while peering at the green clock on the wall. She huffily sat on a armchair, as her brother and Louise headed out to the Carnival, which was down the road next beside the beach. She stared at the cream wall of the living room. How could he have forgotten about Valentine's Day.. A loud knock shook Madison from her day-dream.
"Ben!" cried Madison, while jumping into his arms. He almost fell, with the basket still intact. "I thought you forgotten." she replied. He scratched the back of his head nervously. "Nah.. I just forgot a few things, but I got them now. C'mon." he replied, while pulling Madison along the street.
A warm breeze whizzed past the couple, as they continued to walk down the road. "Where are we going?" asked Madison. "If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise.. Now would it?" he asked. As the pair got down the steep hill, Ben placed a red blindfold over her eyes. "Ben." giggled Madison. She felt his warm, tender hands around her shoulders, as he guided her threw the streets.
"Please tell me we're nearly there?" asked Madison. "What do you mean we're already here." chuckled Ben. Madison removed the blindfold from her brown eyes. The warm sun shone on her face. She stared at the beautiful scenery. Salty water filled her lungs. The seagulls loudly fly above their heads. The great whoosh of the sea hitting the sand. She turned to a spot, where Ben was. He was placing a red chequered cloth onto the sand. She grinned, while running over to him. "Ben this is amazing!" she said, while kissing him on the lips. He grinned, while setting out the cutlery. "Wait, there's more." grinned Ben. He whistled, and two men with lifeguard suits on, had two trays. They both smiled, and lowered them onto the cloth. A man with blonde hair, handed Madison a deep red rose. On the rose, there was a note. :Dear Madison, every time I stare at this rose, it reminds me of you. For it's beauty, passion to stand out from the rest of the flowers and the colour of red. Will you be my Valentine? Please don't leave me hanging. Love Ben.
"Of course I'll be your Valentine!" screamed Madison, while pouncing on the blushing boy. The lifeguards chuckled, as they headed back to their posts. Here's hoping no one drown in their absence. "I love you." giggled Madison. She then sat on the boy's stomach, and kissed his lips. He pulled her down, and made her roll underneath him. "Hm.." said Ben, while licking his lips. He could taste the sweet strawberry lip-gloss on his lips. The smell of her perfume consumed him. He began kissing up her arm, on her neck, her cheeks, and then her forehead. Tingles were sent up her spine. "I love you too." replied Ben. They both sat up from the crinkled cloth, and began eating the prawn cocktails, and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
"This is so relaxing, I could stay here all day." laughed Madison, as she poured more sand on Ben's body. Only his head, and feet were showing. Nothing else. As if he was eaten up by the sand. "Well sorry to disappoint you, but I'm feeling how do I say it.. Crabby." replied Ben. This made Madison laugh even harder. "I'll be back, I'm gonna get some ice-cream." she said, while running along the beach's front, near the little Beach Café. Her wet tangled hair moved as she did. "Madison! Madison don't leave me!" shouted Ben.
An hour later, and Madison had obtained the ice-creams, and helped poor Ben out of the sand. "I can't feel my arss.. Some crabs have gotten to it!" commented Ben, while licking his ice-cream. Madison kissed him on the cheek, and lay her head on his shoulder. What a fun day it has been. First the nice meal they had, then the sand-castle competition, and then the water fight. (Ben obviously won that one, since he carried Madison right into the sea. "I guess we need to go soon." said Ben sadly. "I'm sure we can do this another time." giggled Madison. She entangled her hands in his blonde hair, as she made out with him.
A bright pink firework zoomed up in the air, and splattered across the sky. It made a small heart. "Wow!" screamed Madison. She was gazing at the lovely firework, that had came from the Carnival. "I wouldn't mind going there next year." said Ben, while pointing towards the Carnival. "I don't care where I am.. As long as I'm with you." replied Madison. She giggled, when Ben rested his head on her head. The sun slowly descended from the sky. The sky was turning a light orange, which reflected onto the water. It made the scene look magnificent, and beautiful, for it gave it an Hawaiian feel to it. "Happy Valentine's Day." smiled Ben, as he pulled Madison closer. "Yeah, Happy Valentine's Day." replied Madison. The pair embraced each other with another steamy kiss. Another firework was let off, which flew up into the sky and made a whizzing noise. The image that appeared this time was two swans placing their heads on each other head. At least Ben listened to Chris.. For the first time. He made it special and from the heart.
