Aria smiled, and looked. "Wow. That's…definitely one of the prettiest I've seen." she replied, glancing at Seren, then back at the sunset. "I'm serious."

"It sure is amazing…I've seen so many since I've spent a ton of my life in the water for pretty much my entire life…" Seren answered, the sunset shining reflecting off of her dark eyes. She closed them and breathes in the salty smell of seawater, "Gosh I love the ocean…"

Aria smiled and nodded. "Mm. I actually…I can't swim." she chuckled softly.

Seren turned to look at Aria, "I could teach you! I'm really good at swimming! It'd be fun."

Aria smiled. "Sure." she replied, looking at Seren. "That would be fun."

"Great, how about tomorrow then? Or anytime you want, I have literally nothing going on tomorrow or um any day, probably for awhile." Seren laughed lightly.

Aria nodded. "Alright. Should I meet you here at about…noon tomorrow?"

"Yes, that'd be perfect." Seren nodded, she continued drinking her frappe and looked back at the sky. The colors had started to fade and the sky was now starting to turn a deep bluish black with tiny white stars twinkling in the distance.

Aria took another drink of her drink, smiling a little.

“Anything you want to do right now?” Seren asked after a few minutes of calm silence.

Aria shook her head. "No, thank you. Uhm…you have somewhere to stay tonight, right? You look new in town."

“Oh yes, I’m staying at a hotel for now, I arrived here three days ago.” Seren replied with a smile.

"Alright." Aria smiled back. "That's good. And welcome to town."

“Thank you.” Seren looked back at the sky, “It looks like it’s getting pretty late, I should go. Um see you tomorrow.” Seren stood up and waved to her before walking off.

Aria nodded. "See you!" She called. She got up and started walking home again.

Seren walked along the empty beach, slowly heading back to the hotel, a little smile on her face, Gosh, she was great…

Aria headed home, and threw her empty cup away on her way. She let out a soft breath.

Seren reached the hotel and headed up to her room, plopping herself down on the bed. She was clutching the (ima say light blue and white striped with stars)socks close to her chest, her vibrant hair splayed out on the bed. "Tomorrow will be fun." She said to herself.

Aria slipped inside her house, and headed quickly to her room. Damon would be home soon, and she wanted to avoid confrontation with him as much as possible.

Seren quickly fell asleep on the comfortable bed. Beds in the sea weren't as comfy…due to lack of comfy materials in the ocean.

Aria got into her pajamas, and went to sleep.

(Time skip?)

(yeah sure. Want me to do it, or do you want to?)

(Could you?)

(yup!)

Aria woke up in the morning to the sound of Damon leaving the house. She took a deep breath, and got up, changing into clothes for the day, and ate breakfast. She remembered what she had said about meeting with Seren, and set off to meet the other girl.

Seren had left quite early and was standing down on the beach in a swimsuit, the bottoms covered by a pair of shorts and sunglasses on her face. Her hair was in a messy bun. She waited patiently by the water, waiting for Aria.

Aria had worn clothes that would dry off quick after she was in the water. She spotted Seren, and called out to her, waving. "Seren!" she called with a smile.

Seren turned at Aria's voice, "Oh hey, Aria!" She smiled and walked over to her, "Ready to swim?"

Aria smiled. "Not at all, but let's do this." she laughed softly, and stretched.

Seren lightly chuckled, "Well it's okay, you'll learn in no time."
