Srenity yelps as she's dragged along, thinking Why am I feeling this? I literally just met Ali!
She stripped off her own lacey dress coat as Ali stripped off her own coat.
"No, I haven't lived anywhere that has had an ocean, besides here." she grins, laughing at Ali's blush and feeling the same rush of energy.
Ali smiles, no longer a sky smile, a bold one. “You’re going to love this.” He starts toward the water, looking back over her shoulder for Serenity
Serenity follows her, hesitating then sighing and stripping off the rest of her clothes to keep them from getting wet, now just in her underclothes.
She looks at Ali a moment then grins and tackles her into the water.
Ali laughs, splashing her back. “You got my favorite top wet!!” She exclaims, laughing. She tosses some sand at Serenity, running further into the water
Serenity laughs.
"It'll get clean!" she says, following her into the water, grabbing some sand of her own and throwing it at Ali.
Ali giggles as the sand hits her hair, the dives into the water, popping her head back up, staring at Serenity. I don’t think I’ve had this much fun in forever. Or been this outgoing. she smiles, then gets an idea. “Hey, if you’re gonna live here, you’re gonna need a bathing suit. I know a place, if you want to…”
Serenity grins.
"Nah, I'm fine with just my panties and bra." she teases, twirling and diving under the water and swimming towards Ali, popping up and splashing her, then diving back under to avoid getting splashed back.
Ali stares, not lining she’d see so much after knowing her for about two hours. He gets knocks out of it when the spray of ocean water splashes her face. She laughs, diving under after her
Serenity knows Ali's probably uncomfortable with her in her panties and bra, but doesn't really care. A bikini adds up to the exact same thing, anyways.
She looks back behind her and sees Ali there and smiles under the water, kicking her legs and flipping in the water, ending up behind Ali.
Ali loses Serenity, and looks around, nervous. She flips her hair out of the water. “Serenity?” She calls, pulling some curls out of her eyes.
Serenity pops up behind her and says "Hi!", grinning.
Ali sighs, grinning as she laughed with Serenity. She smiles, treading water and looking back to shore. "Its f-f-freezing!" She says softly, teeth chattering a little in the cold waters of the pacific.
Serenity laughs.
"Really? This is just about perfect for me," she smiles. "But we should probably head back, right?"
She realizes something.
"Damn it, I didn't think to bring a bag of shit with me! I suppose I'm walking back to the dorms un my underwear…" she sighs, not really that upset about it.
Ali giggles, swimming back to shore. "Well, its california. You'll blend right in." She strides back out on the sand, picking up a few stray broken seashells, then grabbing her coat, wrapping it around her shivering skin. Should we get an uber?"
Serenity sighs. "Yeah, I suppose I will." She follows Ali back to shore.
She grins. "I'm not sure how an Uber driver would feel about two dripping wet girls climbing into their car, but sure!"
Ali laughs, leaning into Serenity's arm a bit, then pulls out her phone, finding a driver. The screen lit up her face as he sun rose higher into the sky, becoming lighter
Serenity watches the sun rise higher, then smiles slightly.
"You know, it's weird. I never expected to meet someone like you." she grins, wrapping an arm around Ali's shoulders.
Ali smiles timidly, glancing at Serenity, realizing something.
Something familiar
The feeling when you realize all is right, that everything will work out
Ali blushes, putting her phone in her pocket once she found a driver. She smiles up at Serenity.
"Neither did I." She says shyly, watching as seagulls dove into the ocean. "but here we are."
(Lmao, how tall are our characters? I'm thinking Ali's somewhere around, like, 5'4" or something… so, in order for her to look up at Serenity, Serenity would have to be 5'8" or 5'9", making her exceptionally tall for a girl!)
Serenity realizes that there's a reason why they seem to get along so well: they must share the same feeling of familiarity. Otherwise, neither of us would have opened up so quickly.
"Yeah, here we are." she says, noticing the shy tone and knowing it would be very easy to fluster her further.
(I think Ali's like 5'2 or 3? I make all my characters short for some reason XD)
"Im glad we're roommates." Ali blurts, pressing her lips together in embarrassment. She sighs, then watches as a white sedan pulls up to the curb, and her phone vibrates. "That must be our ride." She says, mostly to herself
(I was close? Wow, I must be, like, magic or some shit…)
"Same!" she says brightly, walking over to the car and opening the door for Ali. "After you!
(woahh…)
Ali grins, sliding to the opposite side and putting on her seatbelt. The driver sighs when he sees them, soaking wet, then starts driving to the location Ali sent him. She laughs, looking over at Serenity
Serenity starts laughing as well. Albeit, probably for more reasons that the Uber drivers reaction.
"We must look spectacular!" she grins, now realizing her makeup was all gone.
Ali grins. "Heck, yeah we do." She notices Serenity's makeup was gone, but she still was stunning. Maybe even more stunning. She realized she was staring and turned to look out the window, watching palm trees and strip malls go by
Serenity chuckles at Ali turning away.
"Since you were staring, I imagine you find that particularly true?" she asks, her grin widening.
(I'mma have to leave here soon for a choir concert. I'll see ya at 8:00!)
(see ya! good luck!!)
Ali blushes, leaning her head against the window. "I mean, yeah. of course." A smile crosses her lips
Serenity chuckles.
"If it helps, the same is true for you." she says, scooching over so that she was right next to Ali. She leans in close and whispers, "I really like your style, by the way."
Ali turns red, grinning warmly. There is no way. There is no fucking way.
“I… I…” she starts, leaning back into Serenity. “…I like you.” She whispers, close to her face. And god, did her hair smell good.
