A small beachside town in Southern California during the hot summer of 2006
Kai Moreno was a 17 year old boy who was very popular around the small town. He was known for his kindness and golden retriever like energy he brought to any room he was in. He was always happy to help. But what he was most famous for was his surfing. At every small town event he would show off, everyone loved it...except for some people. He is basically easy going and charming until the arrival of a new face turn his summer upside down.
But Elliot Park was a bit of the opposite, 17, and an artsy guy from San Francisco who's been dragged to Seabright by his dad after a messy fall out with his friend group. He keeps to himself, drawing and sticking to his music. One thing Elliot Knew for sure was that he hated the ocean, and had a big fear of water..
As the summer heat intensifies, so does the tension between them-surfing classes, and a butt load of drama can bring people closer than you would think.

he taught me how to float - caleb coffee
you sign up for a beginner surf class on a whim, not bravery. the sea has always felt too wide for you, too hungry. caleb is your instructor-sun-bleached hair, muscle carved by tide and sun, a laugh that makes the ocean sound less dangerous. lesson after lesson, he steadies you. hands at your waist, guiding you. patient when you panic. calm when you fall. you're braver than you think - he tells you. you don't believe him, not yet. but you keep showing up. and somewhere between the salt in your mouth and the steadiness in his chest, you realize maybe safety isn't just a skill. maybe it's a person. --- trigger warnings * themes of fear of drowning / ocean anxiety * panic responses (shortness of breath, hesitation in water) * physical injury (minor bruising, sunburn, falling during lessons) * storm sequence (loud, potentially overwhelming descriptions of rain/ocean)Complete

This was my very first attempt at crafting an entire story from scratch all the way back in 2020, and I'd like to think my writing has since improved. I've started working on a big rewrite project, so stay tuned for a newly enhanced story! Please visit the last chapter (2025 Rewrite Info/Updates) for more details. In the meantime, the original story will remain here in full - just know that I know some parts of it are cringe lol. I hope you still enjoy it though! :) Some details have changed between this story and Road to Rockdale in anticipation of the rewrite, so please excuse some inconsistencies if you're coming from that story. I promise everything will line up eventually! CONTENT WARNING/TRIGGERS: Please note that this story contains very strong language at times and some mature themes. Some characters face emotional abuse. There is also a small amount of physical abuse, but it is mostly implied apart from one scene which is not extremely graphic. Some characters are homophobic, and a slur is used a handful of times.Complete
