The air was fresh, a taste of salt drifting in the chilly breeze as seagulls squeaked overhead, searching for food as they swarmed around the tanning people below, salty chips and melting ice-cream dropping to the soft sand as children screamed with excitement and parents watched with smiles, couples without children enjoying the loving relationship they had before settling down and beginning a family.
Closer to the blue of the sea, away from the colourful tents and wind-breakers, where the sand was browner, wet and firmer, two young men walked side by side, laughing as they spoke, arms gently brushing while they walked along the water's edge, admiring the surfer's in the cold sea as the bright sunshine beat down on them, practically blinding them.
The more pale of the two men smiled, bending down and drawing a lion's head in the firm sand, the words 'RAWR!' written beneath the spikes of its mane as the tanned male beside him smiled, bending down and drawing a llama in response, making the other laugh at his attempt, the brunette hitting him playfully on the arm as they continued to walk, occasionally leaning down towards the ground to draw or write something, both laughing as they did.
When they had walked a certain length of beach, the younger of the two bent down again, resting one hand on his knee as he drew quickly with his index finger the word, 'Dan', straightening himself and smiling, turning to the dark haired man as he gazed down and wrote beneath, '& Phil', continuing to then draw a large heart around the two names as he straightened to his full height, an inch or so smaller than the tanned man beside him.
Sneaking a glance from beneath his dark fringe, he cast his gaze towards his friend, who simply looked down at the drawing in slight surprise before looking up with a beaming smile upon his face, his brown eyes sparkling as he cupped the other's face in his soft hands, pressing his lips against the older man's and taking him by surprise.
They allowed the kiss to linger as the older of the two snaked his arms around the younger one's waist, drawing him closer while the brunette deepened their kiss by wrapping his arms around the other's neck and tugging him closer, the kiss passionate below the heat of the sun as the cool of the breeze caressed their skin.
When they finally drew apart, they smiled at each other before nuzzling their noses together, giggling at how cliché they were acting. They squeezed each other in a quick embrace before parting, the brunette's hand sliding down his friend's arm and taking his hand, entwining their fingers as they looked down at the picture in the sand, both smiling as they walked away, their embracing hands swinging slightly between their tall frames.
It did not matter that when the tide came in their drawing was washed away, because the same words were forever engraved in their hearts.
I'm a sad bugger and drew their names in the sand multiple times, I'll upload the pictures later :)
And yeah, so this idea sprung to mind and uh-huh :)
Sweet and sappy as hell, but even I can't help but go, "Aww!" so I hope you guys like it too :D
