She tried to best not to burst out laughing at his answer, she unhooked her arms from around his neck and began to swimming back to shore " well that's good I'm glad, but I will have you know we are both taking showers, whether or not anything happens.. I have sand in unpleasant places. "
“That’s fair.” Marc nodded, swimming after her. “Sand has an uncanny way of getting everywhere.” he admitted. “There’s probably even some in our hair.”
"Ha, yeah I know there's definitely a million grains in my hair right now. " she said with a laugh " but I have really good water pressure so it won't be a problem. "
Marc laughed with her and nodded. “I think the closer you live to the beach the better shower you have.” he assumed, even though he hadn’t tested that little theory.
Maria made it to the beach and began to ring her hair "That may be so, but hey I'm not complaining."
“Neither am I.” Marc smiled, shaking some of the water off before making his way over to where they had put their clothes and handing hers out to her.
Maria reached for her clothes giving Marcus a smile before getting dressed. "thank you, Marcus. "
“No problem.” he nodded, following her lead and putting on his own clothes.
She got dressed and ran her fingers through her hair "hurry up and get dressed Im Freezing!" She Was rubbing her ams with her hands and she teeth were chattering and she stood waiting for Marcus, she was using her Shaw to her her warm but it was too thin to do anything.
Marc laughed and finished pulling on his shirt. “Give me a second.” he teased as he picked up his shoes, shoving his socks in his back pocket.
"Okay… " she said while shuffling her feet trying to keep herself occupied, she kicked the sand a bit just to move it around and waiting for a wave to come and rinse her feet off.
Marc smiled at her and quickly tied his shoes. “Alright. Come on.” he beckoned, holding his hand out for her.
She quickly kicked her feet in the water before running up to Marcus and taking his hand and reaching down to pick up her sandals. "Okay I'm ready!"
Marc took her hand, waited for her to grab her shoes, and picked her up. “Let's go then.” he smiled as he started carrying her to the bike.
Maria dipped her head back and laughed "Marcus I have legs! I can walk myself!"
“I know that.” Marc laughed with her, not making a move to up her down yet. “I just felt like carrying you. I hope that’s ok.”
"It's okay but I don't see why you carry me everywhere. " she said as nicely as possible as she laughed again, she hooked an arm around his neck and leaned her head on his chest "but I could definitely get used to it. " she said jokingly sticking her tongue out at him.
Marc grinned playfully at her and shifted his hold slightly so Maria would be more comfortable. “Well, this time it's just because I’m wearing my shoes and you're not. I figured you wouldn't want to get any more sand on your feet.” he half teased.
"Oh yeah? Likely excuse. " she said with a laugh as she looked up at him once more. Her face was still a bit red just because she was worried about being too heavy for him. She shifted a bit to try and make herself seem a bit lighter.
(Pft typical women worried about her weight even though she has my dream body 🥲. All jokes ofc..)
Marc chuckled at her cute blush though he raised a brow at her movement. “Don't worry, I’ll let you walk once we get to your house.” he assured, seeing his bike just ahead.
(mood. Jokes or not, I tend to give my characters better bodies than mine.)
(I think we may all do that- 😭 twinssss)
This made her laugh a little more and she lightly tapped the back oh his neck "oh your gonna let me huh?"
Marc blushed and shook his head, though he was glad she was laughing it off. “I didn't mean it like that.” he amended. “I just meant that I wouldn't carry you if you didn't want me to.”
Maria smiled at his blush "oh yeah, I'm sure. " she said jokingly sticking her tongue out again "but I really don't mind if you carry me.. It just makes me nervous sometimes."
“Why would this make you feel nervous?” Marc asked with a raised brow, hoping he hadn't crossed a line.
She shrugged "oh you know how insecure wemon are.. " she said with a weak smile
