Kilela had everything set up. The umbrella, blanket. He had even brought chips for goodness' sake! All to impress and gain the trust of his now-best freind, Katarina. Decked out in his boy shorts and a shirt lying on the ground, Kilela waited patiently for Kat to show up, checking his newly bought watch from time to time.

Katarina arrived, slightly late, at the Beach. She scanned it, looking for Kilela. When she saw him, she waved frantically and ran over. "Hi," she said breathlessly as she sat down next to him. "Sorry I'm late."

"S'okay. I can never make a deadline myself." he said, remembering the last client he wrote for. A month late, hm. . .
Tapping his foot on the sand a bit, Kilela got his big toe rudely piched by a rogue crab. Cursing softly, he took his toe and rubbed it, on the verge of weeping bitterly. Biting his lower lip however, Kilela merely retried a soda and a bite-sized bag of chips from his cooler and plastic bag.
"Care for any?" he asked, offering them to Kat.

Kat nodded. "Sure..." she said as she took a few. She looked curiously at Kilela's odd expression. "You okay?" she asked. He looked on the verge of tears.

He choked back a whimper, eyes closing and squinting a bit. "That stupid crab pinched my toe." he said, flicking it to whence it came.

Katarina stifled a giggle. Her face became normal again as she said, "That one? He's always here... you can tell its him 'cause of that brown-red mark on his shell," she pointed. "See? He always is in a bad mood... I've been bitten a few times, too."

Kilela was cheered up as he heard her explanation. A horrible, cheesy pun came to mind, but the man suppressed the urge to use the term 'crabby' in this situation.
"Ah. Kinda like my sister's cat. The thing always bites me. But I just can't seem to hate it, y'know?" he replied, taking a sip of the other soda he had retrieved from the cooler.
"You wouldn't happen to have had any pets, would you?" he asked, interested in what kind of pet Kat would have had, if any.

Katarina shook her head, biting her lip to keep back tears. "When I was in Greece I... my family had two dogs." She blinked back the tears. "Now I really want a cat or a budgie (a parakeet/bird). Not both, of course. I'm not sure they'd be best buds," she added with a smile. "I love animals, and would have one by now, but I'm saving up for that house." She pointed at the house on the dock.

Kilela noticed the clouded mists over her eyes. "I didn't mean to bring back any memories. I mean, I know how you feel if I asked something inappropiate." he said, leaning over and looking into her eyes.
As for the cat and dog comment, Kilela chuckled a bit. He was also quite happy about her wanting to buy that house on the dock.
Well, that means we wouldn't have to visit my messy place or the Inn each day. he thought, slight breeze ruffling his hair a bit.

Kat blushed, a little nervous with him being so close. "Its nothing... just had a little, er... family trouble back in Greece," she explained. "Everyone has family trouble," she continued, "so don't be too worried. Its over now." Why did I say that? she wondered. I hardly know him. He wouldn't worry about me.

"Family trouble? I've had a few. . .skirmishes back in my younger teenage years." Kilela said, preparing to speak again. "But never. . .like, major problems. And you don't understand that I am worried. I mean, you're my friend, right? " he said, cursing himself for calling her merely a 'friend'. "So you sure you don't wanna talk about it? I've been known to turn a problem into an er. . ." he said, smiling and arching an eyebrow as he searched for something witty to say.

"Really? Thanks. You're sweet." she said the words before she could stop them from coming out. Again, she blushed. I am officially the world's biggest idiot. Hands down. She looked out into the water again as she replayed his words about talking about it. What can I say? Should I talk about it? He said he'd care... "...I really don't think I want to talk about it, not yet anyway," she finally answered. Sorry, its not you. ooc~ I can't have her tell, because she tells in one one the Heart Events!

[Ooc| Like, ohmigawd. Play the mystery moosic! XD I must know now.]
"I can understand that." he said, giving up on the whole 'I'm-so-hot-and-smart' plan. Kilela merely stood up and brushed the sand off of his shorts, extending his hand for Katarina to pull herself up. Wanna take a wlak or get in the water? he asked, feeling the crisp breezes wisp through.

"Okay," Katarina agreed, relieved he had let the family thing slide. "That sounds great." She took his and and stood up, brushng the sand off her red bikini. "Which way?" she questioned.

"Towards the sandhills we go!" he exclaimed, playing navigator for a minute there. However, he wanted a second opinion.
"That is okay with you, right?" he asked.
