Two days after the Fever beat the Sparks, LA 2025.
Caitlin woke up, sitting in bed to see Nora still asleep. Caitlin rested against the bed's headboard, her eyes still on Nora.
Caitlin's thoughts shifted, recalling their talk of a 'date' today. Her gaze was still on Nora, all she wanted to do was hold her. But it wasn't her fault, it was Nora's. She quietly got up and went into the bathroom, washing her face and then brushing out her hair and straightening it, going back to the bed, sitting back down.
"Fuck.." Caitlin cursed under her breath as her hand reached out to Nora's cheek, lightly touching it, her thumb rubbing Nora's face, trying not to wake her.
She quickly moved her hand away, rubbing the bridge of her nose, frustrated at herself. She couldn't understand what this was.
Caitlin shook her head and picked up her phone, texting Connor back.
Nora soon woke up, sitting up. "Mhm.."
"Oh, good morning." Caitlin put her phone down.
Nora looked over to Caitlin. "Wow.. How does your hair look so perfect?"
Caitlin chuckled. "I straightened it."
Nora stretched her back, rubbing her eyes. "What are we doing for our date?"
Caitlin thought for a second. "Why not go to the beach?"
Nora's eyes widened. "The beach?" The last time Nora had been to a beach was in Hawai'i, she refused to go anywhere else. Even South Carolina's beaches.
"Yea?" Caitlin was confused by this reaction.
Nora had to think about this for a minute. Beaches were a tough place for her.
"I, I dunno.. I didn't really bring a bathing suit." Nora seemed to shrink in size, not literally.
"I'll buy you one?" Caitlin leaned towards Nora, concerned. Caitlin reached out, her hand returning to Nora's cheek, lifting her head up.
Nora moved her hand to Caitlin's, raising a brow. "Sure, let's go to the beach." She smiled.
They both got out of bed, picked up some hotel towels and stuffed them in a backpack, both putting on simple outfits with shorts, both wearing some Nike dunks. Nora, wearing her glasses.
As the two were walking down to the elevator, Caitlin spoke up. "Glasses?"
"Oh, yea?"
"Well I've seen the contacts in our bathroom but I didn't know you had a pair of glasses."
Nora giggled, "Well I do."
...
The two got an uber and stopped at a bikini store nearby, Caitlin bought Nora a white bikini set with blue details, while Caitlin bought a black bikini set, her usual swimming outfit. They changed into the bikinis in the stores bathroom.
They set out to Santa Monica, Nora specifically requested Santa Monica Ocean Park, a surfing beach near LA, they got another uber to the beach, dropping them off onto some sidewalk near the sand.
"Wow.. I haven't been to the beach in forever." Nora looked around, it was nothing compared to Hawai'i, but still a beach.
"Really?" Caitlin looked over at Nora.
She nodded, there was a surfboard rental place nearby, it caught Nora's eyes. Caitlin wandered off and set down their towels nearby while Nora stood in place.
