"Yeah, we have to use if because there's no telling if we'll actually come back," she said, and he looked at her before turning on the music and she closed her eyes while listening to the music, feeling a bit relaxed.
'Is she really at ease right now?' I don't always understand what she's thinking, and I can see how the others might find it frightening at times,' he thought as they arrived at the beach, where there were people and the ice cream shop was open, and some people were sitting around a bonfire, playing music.
"It sure is lively here," he said then she opened her eyes and they got out of the car, and she smiled.
"Let's go get some ice cream," she said as she walked away, and he smiled, then followed her to the ice cream shop, where she noticed a guy by the fire staring at her, and Alix stood behind her then she smiled
"Guys are like this, some of them can't help themselves," he said, and she chuckled before placing her order.
"Which flavor would you like?" she asked.
"Cookie and cream too," he replied, and she smiled as one of the girls who came to buy ice cream looked at Alix and Adora and smiled.
"If you guys aren't going anywhere, you are welcome to join us, we are a bunch of strangers, that's just sitting together, laughing and talking," the girl said then Adora looked at Alix.
"I don't see any harm in that, sure, "Adora replied then collected and paid for their orders and went to join the people at the bonfire and Alix looked at her as they sat down and she passed him his ice cream.
"Adora, what made you decide to come out tonight?" Alix asked as one of the guys played the guitar and Adora smiled.
"I was getting bored, and doing nothing can be exhausting, so why did you agree to accompany me? Is it because you were bored as well, or because you didn't want me to come alone?" He scoffed when she asked.
"I came because I was getting bored, to be honest," he replied, and she sighed before continuing to eat her ice cream.
"It's nice to have some time to yourself," she said.
"I know, I used to have a lot of those, but now everything is just different, not in a bad way, my life was boring, uneventful," he replied as she stared at him.
"My life was always eventful but not that great," she said.
"I understand," he replied, then looked up at the night sky and closed his eyes.
"You..." she mumbled, and he gave her a sidelong glance.
"I what?" he inquired.
"Never mind, it's nothing, you're just difficult to understand right now, are you angry about anything or so?" She inquired.
"No, not right now, why?" he asked.
"You just seem so calm, but there might be a storm within you that you're not aware of," she responded, and his eyes glowed blue for less than five seconds before returning to normal.
'I'm not sure how correct she is, it's nice to have someone who knows you like this, maybe it's good, maybe...' Alix thought as he finished off his ice cream.
"Perhaps I won't know, at least not yet," he said as she finished her ice cream and looked at the guy playing the guitar.
"Come with me," she said as she stood up and walked away, and he followed her down the beach until they reached a small brick wall, which she jumped over, and he followed her.
"What are we doing, Adora?" She looked at the water and the trees, then at the moonlight reflecting on the water, when he asked.
"Relaxing, what else?" she asked, opening her hair and allowing the water to wash against her feet.
"This is nice," she said as she stepped onto the water and he left staring at her as she twirled around on top of the water with the moonlight reflecting on her body and he left staring at her and how perfectly she balanced herself on top of the water.
'She has a lot to deal with, I know that, how does she keep such a good balance?' Alix wondered.
"Would you like to give it a shot?" she inquired.
"I don't mind," he replied.
"You can incorporate it into your training; when your body is relaxed, you can keep the flow of your energy calm within your body, gaining more balance," she said, and he smiled slightly before removing his boot.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "Let's see," he said, taking a deep breath and ignoring everything else around him, placing his feet on the water, and she chuckled as he stood on top of the water without falling.
"That was simple," he said, "though I'm sure you don't do it all the time because we aren't always calm."
"You are right, we only get to do this every now and then," she replied as she spun around, lifting a bit of the water up with her feet and splattering it on him.
"Sorry," she said and he wiped the water off of his face and then chuckled.
"It's fine," he replied as his eyes glowed blue and he bent down, lifted a small amount of water in his hand, and threw it at her.
"Well, I guess that was fair," she grinned.
"You are really difficult to understand at times, you know," he said, and she approached him, leaned in closer, and he pulled back a little.
"Now who is crowding whose space?" he asked as he leaned back towards her and their foreheads collided.
"Ouch," she muttered as she rubbed hers and he rubbed his.
"Are you relaxed?" she inquired, and he looked at her.
"Yeah, in a way," he replied as she yawned and stretched, then looked at him with sleepy eyes.
"How sleepy are you?" he inquired.
"I'm not sleepy," she replied.
"Liar, your highness, it's clearly written all over your face, lying won't do," he said.
"Not everyone gets to sleep peacefully at night, you know that very well," she replied.
"Yeah, I know with you that's a regular thing," he said.
"Yeah, it is," she replied as she got off of the water and sat on the beach and he joined her.
