(It was only 10 in the morning. Lynnon was cuddling Ezekiel in bed when she suddenly wakes up because of him again)
Ezekiel-" Happy birthday bear"
(Lynnon groans and hugs him tighter. She says something back, her voice sounding muffled)
Lynnon-" Happy Birthday..."
(Ezekiel chuckles. He then picks pull her higher up and supports her. Ezekiel then begins to move off the bed with Lynnon still hugging him. He gets off and carries Lynnon to the bathroom. He sits her down on the counter and only turns on the light for the shower so that they could see but it didn't hurt Lynnon's eyes when she finally REALLY woke up)
Ezekiel-" Bear, it's your birthday"
(Lynnon shakes her head)
Ezekiel-" No?"
(Ezekiel says with a smirk)
Ezekiel-" So no gifts? orrrr special food? Birthday kisses and cuddles?"
(Lynnon slowly opens her eyes and nervously looks at Ezekiel)
Ezekiel-" There she is"
(Ezekiel moves the hair on her forehead up and out of her face)
Ezekiel-" You were real tired, weren't you? We didn't even do anything yesterday"
(Lynnon tilts her head)
Lynnon-" I don't... know your birthday..."
Ezekiel-" I guess I never told you did I. November 15"
(Lynnon's eyes widen)
Lynnon-" You're 21 now then?"
Ezekiel-" You should know this. You have such bad memory"
Lynnon-" You're so old"
Ezekiel-" Then I guess you shouldn't be dating such an old man"
Lynnon-" You're right, maybe I shouldn't"
(Ezekiel's expression changes in the slightest and Lynnon notices)
Lynnon-" I'm sorry! I was joking!"
(Lynnon holds Ezekiel's hand)
Ezekiel-" I was playing with you. I'm not scared of you leaving me"
(Ezekiel leans in a small)
Ezekiel-" It's cute you noticed"
Lynnon-" You're so mean"
(Ezekiel rolls his eyes and smiles before helping Lynnon down from the counter. Now she was back to being shorter than him. The two of them brush their teeth in either of the two sinks. Ezekiel finishes first and leaves the bathroom to an unknown location. When Lynnon begins to finish, she hears rolling come towards the bathroom. She looks to the door as she turns off the sinks to see Ezekiel halt, already dressed and holding the handles of two small suitcases. Lynnon was surprised by the sight)
Ezekiel-" We're going on a small trip"
(Almost two hours into the two-hour car ride, Lynnon finally begins to see the destination of Ezekiel's secret trip for them. The beach! Lynnon's eyes light up as she gets the view of the crystal clear water and the defined shoreline. It was beautiful but there was a sudden pit in her stomach. Suddenly, Ezekiel begins to drive them to a more secluded spot around the area. People Lynnon would see on the beach slowly decreased until there was no one on the beach or the road. She was a bit confused by it. Suddenly Ezekiel turns into a smaller rode the swerved upwards until she saw it. A big, modern beach house. Lynnon looked up through the windshield at the beautiful building as Ezekiel drove to it. He notices and smiles)
Ezekiel-" You like it?"
Lynnon-" Are you kidding?! I haven't even walked inside and I already can't wait!"
Ezekiel-" It's my mom's vacation home. She let us use it for a few days while we're over here"
Lynnon-" Ugh, I adore your mom. She's so cool"
(Ezekiel parks in the driveway and the two of them get out. Lynnon walks to the back to help Ezekiel with their luggage but he stops her)
Ezekiel-" I'm fine. Go explore. The doors open"
(Lynnon smiled brightly then rushes up to the entrance she opens it and is welcomed to an open floorplan with a bunch of windows. The house had a very warm aroma with its wooden floor and creme accents along with plants in every direction. The downstairs had the living room, kitchen/bar, and patio which was connected to a pool on a one-foot decline from the level of the patio. Upstairs were four rooms: A master bedroom, two standard bedrooms, and a smaller living room with a balcony to the right of it, All had a bunch of windows as well. She walks to the patio and looks down at the pool. It was nice but it looked... deep)
Ezekiel-" Bear?"
(Lynnon jumps and screams. She looks and sees Ezekiel. She puts her hand on her heart)
Lynnon-" Shit you scared me"
Ezekiel-" Ha... sorry"
(Ezekiel looks at the pool behind her)
Ezekiel-" What were you looking at?"
Lynnon-" Nothing! Just the view from up here"
(Lynnon smiles)
Ezekiel-" Oooook? Cmon. I brought you a swimsuit, go change so we can head down to the beach"
(The two of them change, put on sunscreen, grab a towel, and head down to the beach. Immediately Ezekiel heads into the water and gets far enough for the water to cover up to his waist, he looks back to see Lynnon still on the sand, sitting on the towel)
Ezekiel-" Come in Bear! It feels good!"
(Lynnon looks at the water nervously)
Lynnon-" I'm just gonna stay here... tan?"
