“You two have been lying here for almost an hour. You're going to burn.” I put my hand over my eyes to look at August.

“Fuck off.”

He kicks sand in my face while laughing, and before I can even sit up straight, he takes off running. Little bitch.

I turn over to Vid before I go after him. She’s lying on her back now, so I lean on my elbow and hover over her so that I’m blocking her from the sun.

“I feel better. Thank you for staying out of the water with me.” I quickly lean forward to kiss her forehead and get up before she can reply.

I walk toward August, and he’s still running ahead of me. “It was just a joke, Sire. Don’t hit me.” He says it like I regularly abuse him or some shit. He puts his hands up, surrendering as I make my way to him.

“I’m not going to hit you. Stop backing away, August.” He eyes me suspiciously, then stops.

“If you hit me, I’m telling Sage.” He always says this and never tells her. When I reach him, I give him a smile and then kick his feet from under him. As soon as he hits the sand, I start kicking a bunch of it in his face.

He starts yelling about it being in his eyes, but I keep kicking it on him so it gets in his mouth. “You always have to be extra!” In a blink, he grabs my feet, and I’m on the sand next to him.

“You started it!” We start wrestling and rolling in the sand. “Ouch!” I feel a sharp pain in my back, but it doesn’t feel like he punched me. When I turn, there's a football behind me. I look up, and Hazel is standing a few feet away with her arms crossed and another football in hand.

“That asshole has good aim.” I let go of him because she gets ready to throw the next one. Little menace. He stands and then quickly kicks a bit more sand on me but doesn’t run this time.

“Don’t call her that, and yeah, we've been working on it.” He smiles proudly and puts his arms up to catch the ball. When she throws it, she completely misses and hits him right in the—

“Fuck!” August falls to his knees, cupping himself.

“Guess you still need to work on that aim.” I tap his shoulder twice, and Hazel comes rushing to his side.

“At least now he can’t have those kids you hate.”

“Shut up, you dick.”

“I’m a dick, and his doesn’t work anymore, thanks to you.” She flips me off but has a rare smile on her face and is obviously trying not to laugh. I chuckle in response and walk back to the blankets. Sage is tanning and taking pictures of herself; her dark skin shines with how much tanning oil she lathered herself in.

When I reached our area, Vid wasn’t there anymore. I look toward the water, and she’s making her way out.

“Why do you have a bucket of water?”

“I want to build a sandcastle.
