"Yikes, I bet you were. " she slid off the bike and pulled off the helmet

“Yeah.” he nodded as he got off the bike and stretched a little. “But once I was off the pain meds, I started joining a couple marathons. As long as I kept my arm still, I was fine.” he smiled.

"I've had my fair share of broken bones so I know how it feels. " she handed him the helmet

Marcus chuckled and fastened the helmet to the bike before walking over to her. “Are you in any sports, besides biking?”

" i do motor sports but that's about it. " she said as she up smiled at him

“That's cool.” he smiled. “Personally, I do a lot of sports stuff… just not professionally.” he admitted with a shrug.

"Well are you good at the stuff you do? " she nudged his arm with a smile

He shrugged and waggled his hand like a scale. “Some better than others, but I do most of them for fun anyway so it doesn't bother me if I lose.”

"Well have you ever thought about doing them professionally? "

“Yeah, I've thought about it but then I'd have to choose one over the others and I enjoy them all.” he explained. “Plus, I’m happy where I am. Who knows, maybe I’ll get to teach someone at the gym who’ll end up being a pro.”

"That would honestly be amazing, so where is this place you wanted to show me? "

“Yeah, I think so.” he smiled. “Oh, it's down there.” he told her, pointing down the beach. “Come on.”

"Alright." She followed him with a smile on her face

Marcus grinned and walked down the beach, already debating on taking his shoes off. “First time on a beach?”

"Yeah, is that bad? "

“No. I'm sure there are a lot of people who haven't been to a beach before.” he smiled assuringly. “I bet you've never walked barefoot in the sand then either.”

"No I haven't. " she said with a smile

“You want to?” he smirked. “It's a great feeling.”

"Sure." She slipped out of her sandals and heald them in her hand

Marcus chuckled and slid off his shoes and socks as well.

"It's really pretty out here tonight. " she looked up at the stars and smiled

“Yeah.” he sighed, looking up at the sky. “You always get more stars out here than further in the city.”

"It's really pretty out here. "

Marcus nodded and walked down by the water, enjoying the soft combination of the wet sand squishing under his bare feet and the refreshing chill of the salty water lapping up to his ankles.

She walked up next to him looking up at the stars again and smiling to herself
