[ a lazy summer afternoon seemed like the perfect opportunity for alyssa to drag her best friend to the tv room in the mansion; it seemed like an even better idea to play new moon as their movie of choice, having missed the chance to see it in theaters because of final exams and graduation.

she keeps quiet, too enthralled in the thought that tony had actually agreed to sit down and watch it with her... up until they get fifteen minutes into the movie, that is. shifts slightly in her position against tony, a disgruntled look appearing on her face. ]

This movie is nothing like the book!

[ leans away, hands coming up in front of him in surrender. ]

Can't we compromise?

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ blinks and tilts her head to the side. ]

How?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

When we give the cake to your mom, it'll be from me. And the cake to your dad will be from you.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ doesn't hesitate in giving him a good whap to the head again. ]

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ 'oofs' & rubs at his head again while leaning back some more, looking honestly surprised & confused at her reaction. ]

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ ignores the look in favor of squatting down and starting a new pile of sand. ]

How about we play instead and worry about the baking mechanics later, darling.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

I have good reasons to fret, honey.

[ still scoots on over back to her side to start gathering sand into a half-circle to start on his new work. ]

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ concentrates on her work, but manages to speak after a pause: ]

And why is that?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ starts poking his hand into the sand to add details. ]

Fate and destiny.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ turns away from her work, peeking at his. ]

That tells me nothing.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ shakes his head & keeps on drawing. ]

It means you need more Gundam in your life.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ smiles widely, extending her arms out in some sort of grand gesture. ]

But I'm already taking care of that!

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ pauses in his drawing to glance at her. ]

Then your moment of enlightenment is near.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

Do I get a prize from you when it happens?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ nods. ]

I'll give you one of my models.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ looks torn by this momentarily, up until something hits her and she nods excitedly. ]

Okay! I will work hard for it!

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

. . . [ looks down in thought. looks back up. ]

I. . . can give you one. If you want one.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ shakes her head, still looking rather happy. ]

I will accept it only if I work for it. [ lifts a fist. ] I'll earn it somehow!

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ nods, though he can't help but blink at her when he can't shake off the feeling of having given the wrong answer. ]

'Kay. But remember not all free things are bad things.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ reaches over to brush some hair away from his face, only speaking when she goes back to messing around in the sand. ]

I know, but I would rather earn it if the prize is something you cherish the most.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ turns back to his side of the sand, adds one more eye to complete the haro-shaped collection of sand & sits back. his next words comes out in a shy mumble, as if the words weren't meant to be heard. ]

. . . wouldn't offer to someone I didn't cherish as much.

...

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ pauses in her currently lumpy-looking sand creation, face breaking into both a shy smile and a tiny blush. looks down at her feet, wiggling them a bit in the sand as she stays quiet for a moment. reaches over to touch his hand lightly before curling her fingers around it and giving a tiny squeeze. ]

... I love you too, Anthony.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ turns his head away toward the sea when he feels the touch, embarrassed up to the tips of his ears & unwilling to speak in fear of breaking a moment even he knows should be left unmarred. ]

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ doesn't do anything more than that for a minute or two, only being able to lean over to kiss his cheek when she feels like enough time passed them by.

settles back into her seat and nudges some more sand around, tongue sticking out the side of her mouth in concentration. when she finishes she smiles widely, saying "ta-da!" before presenting him with the image of two birds seated next to one another, a little heart drawn above them. ]
