The Beach, Monday Evening

Jun 04, 2013 00:00

Natalie didn't come to the beach that often. As a pale Montrealer, it wasn't really her scene. But having come back from Seattle, she'd just felt like she needed to spend some time somewhere that wasn't a bouncy castle. Or filled with people. So here she was. It had rained earlier, but it wasn't raining right now. Natalie had kicked her shoes off, ( Read more... )

Natalie's attention was on the water and the sand and her own two feet. Not to mention all the thoughts she had roaming around her mind. Her chest may have felt hollow but her head did not.

She didn't even notice him. Not at first, anyway.

"You look like you've got a lot on your mind," Jim said as a way to get her attention. He brushed his fingers through his hair and stretched.

Emily, on the other hand, was a beach dweller of the greatest order. So she was taking a quiet stroll by herself in the evening, as you do.

Natalie took a moment to notice her, too many distracting things on her mind. Way too many.

Once she had, though, she raised her hand briefly in the semblance of an answering wave.

"It's a nice place to get lost in your head for a while, don't you think?" Emily said easily. She was all too familiar with the concept.

"Guess so," said Natalie, who was not in much of a sharing mood. (Though when was she ever?) The utter neutrality came easily. "At least it's not raining."

She wouldn't have minded a little rain, actually.
