"Hey, wake up! We're here."

Lyon opened his eyes to look into two golden orbs. Wait, golden? He tilted his head a bit so that he was in the way of the ray of sunlight. The gold color faded into grey. Grey.....ELSA! Lyon quickly sat up, knocking his head on hers.

"Ow!", both of them exclaimed. Elsa giggled and said, "Woah, calm down! You fell asleep on the way." Lyon saw Tessa and Diana trying to find their bags in a huge pile of beach balls, paddle boats and bags. "What's the time?", he asked. "6:37", Elsa replied.

Lyon stood up and as he reached for his jacket which he had placed in the compartment above, something clicked in his head. "Wait, isn't the ship leaving at 9:30?"

"Yeah.", she replied coolly. "Then why aren't we going?", he asked frantically. "Because we're waiting for transport."

"Why aren't we getting transport?"

"Shut up and come!"

Lyon's mouth glued shut. He followed Elsa down the bus and stepped on to Floridan land. The bus had halted in a large bus station. All the billboards were covered with advertisements of resorts, beach spas and so on.

They walked over to Tessa and Diana who had their bags. "We found a cab who promised to take us to the harbour on one condition.", Diana said, handing them their satchels. "What condition?",  Lyon asked. "Apparently", Tessa's voice rang out, "He should be allowed to double the starting price.'

"And that is?"

"2.98 $"

"How much to reach there sans the starting price?"

"Around 19$."

"21.98$? That's too pricey! Why is he even charging double?", Elsa asked. Tessa replied, "There is a lot of traffic since everyone leaves early to get a spot at the beach. Besides, no nother cab is willing to take us to the harbour."

"Oh great.", Lyon mumbled. "We have no other option, do we?"

-----------------------------------------------

"And during this months, ladies, the beach is booming! As in, psycho busy and the weather is fantastic........or should I say, beach-tastic?!"

All four of them rolled their eyes at the driver's dramatic words. The driver turned to them and said, "Especially for smashing women like you.", referring to Elsa who smiled nervously. Lyon grunted and looked outside the window, his blood boiling at the looks the driver gave Elsa.

"You really like her.", Diana whispered to him. Lyon didnt reply, he pushed her face away and went back to staring outside the window.

"His far is it from here?", Tessa asked politely. "We'll reach in a few wee minutes, miss.", he replied, grinning at her through the rear view mirror.

Just as he had predicted, they reached the harbour in a few minutes. The weather was hot, making Lyon stuff his jacket back into his bag. He pulled out a cigarette and placed it between his lips, only to be taken out by Elsa. "No smoking.", she said firmly, crushing the roll of paper under her boot. Lyon smirked and commented, "You remind me of those 'No Smoking' boards." Elsa glared at him but he could see the ends of her mouth tilted up slightly.

After paying the ecstatic driver, the four of them stood on the pier facing the harbour.

"Umm....are we in the wrong place?"
