When Naty finally landed in California she was absolutely beaming. Opening up her phone after she finally got her service back and looking over the texts she had missed from Bella. A small frown on her lips.

Bella: Naty?
Are you okay?
Nat?
Babe?
Should I be worried?

She let out a small sigh before pressing the call button. Ready to explain the situation to Bella and ready to surprise her.

So when Bella picked up, Natys heart made leaps and bounds.

"I am so so sorry I haven't been replying the past day, I had some... Complications." Naty explained.

"Oh geez Naty, you scared me! I'm not used to you just disappearing like that," she said softly through the phone.

"Like I said, I am so so sorry~ but I'm okay now... How have you been?"

"I'm okay... I'm just headed off to the beach on one of my break days... I really was nervous when you hadn't replied in so long." She confessed and Natys eyes lit up happily.

"Which Beach?"

"Ah... it's moonstone something. Have you ever been to a beach?"

"Yeah, once. But I got so scared and so cold! It was fun though." The red head let out a light giggle as she eventually got her ride to pick her up. "What time do you think you'll get there?"

"About... 3ish... Why?" Bella asked. A curious tone laced her voice.

"Just wondering when you'll have to end the call~" Naty smiled through her words. Her smile could practically be heard.

"Oh okay, but I doubt I will. I like hearing your voice~" Bella cooed on the other end of the phone. On her way to the beaches, a tote on her shoulder with a towel and instead of a bathing suit she had an old t-shirt and shorts she would slip on.

Naty on the other hand just had a one piece packed in her bag as she put in the trunk of her rides car. She had gotten a ride from her cousin who lived in California.

They drove off, Naty was just to get a ride to the beach. Pronto. Her cousin promised to bring her stuff up to the guest room in her house.

The two girls talked on the phone for a while, laughing, and smiling. Bella on the phone as she made her way to the beach.

And Naty on her way from the airport. The two girls were so close to meeting but Bella had no clue, and Naty, bouncing out of her seat.
