The Causeway, Sunday Morning/Afternoon

[lockestheway]

It was that time of the year again: spring break, with its travels to far away and exotic locales! Like Brazil

And lo, there was a Miley, with her huge glittery pink suitcase and way, way too much enthusiasm to be normal. She hadn't been to Rio since a Hannah tour two years ago, okay? At least she thought it was two years. And at least she thought it was Rio.

Wait, maybe she should text her dad and ask.

"I'm pretty sure that's the pinkest suitcase I've ever seen," Dave noted as he carried his plain gray bag over.

"I've seen pinker," Miley promised him, beaming up from what was indeed a remarkably pink suitcase. "Hiiiii."

[iwishiwasbig]

"Hi," Dave said, putting his bag down so he could move in for a quick welcome kiss. "Be honest, do you own those pinker bags?"

Miley grinned. "...you can't prove anything."

[iwishiwasbig]

"I think that's enough confirmation for me," Dave said. "Don't worry, I still like you anyway."

"Good," Miley decided. "Because I was so not going to the beach by myself."

[iwishiwasbig]

"You should probably know that I burn like... well, like a guy from Wisconsin who's not used to sun in February unless it's reflecting off of snow," Dave said. "I know it's not the best analogy, but it's stunningly accurate. So you may end up on the beach alone by the end of the week."

"Nope," Miley said firmly, reaching up to kiss him. "We'll get you sunscreen."

Thank god the pollen was gone and that sounded completely unsexy, right?

[iwishiwasbig]

"I'm not sure they make an SPF high enough," Dave said. "Wait. We're in the future. They might have it now."

Look, he was 21 years in the future. He didn't have a jetpack, but he'd be happy with advanced sunscreen technology.

"Well, we'll have to find some," Miley declared. "So that I can teach you how to surf!"

[iwishiwasbig]

"You're going to teach me how to surf?" Dave asked.

[its_theclimb]

"Duh!"

[iwishiwasbig]

"Okay, but if I have to go to the hospital because of this, you have to ride in the ambulance with me," Dave said.

[its_theclimb]

"...deal," Miley said. "But you won't."

[iwishiwasbig]

"I'm holding you to that," Dave said. "But I'm sure you're a good teacher and that I have nothing to worry about."

At least, he was going to keep silently repeating it to himself until he did believe it sight unseen.
