Mason laughed, "I'll never understand my mother," He said with a shrug. "She would really rather I take up something like painting." His mother really didn't approve of his choice to continue with the BMX stuff, but she was a closet fan. She didn't particularly enjoy the danger, but if her son enjoyed it, she would deal. "It's not that she doesn't allow me," He said with a small smile, "I just gave it up to make her happy." Mason was very devoted to mother, and hated to make her worry. "I'd do just about anything to make my Mom smile, she is an amazing person." He smiled, thinking about all of the things she had done for her family, and even complete strangers.

Cybill smiled at him, she couldn't believe he was so devoted to his mother. It was the sweetest thing she'd ever seen. She licked her lips and giggled lightly, "That's so sweet of you. I can't say I'd do the same for my mom, but I think Bo would, my older brother. He'd give up anything that mom wasn't happy with, but she's the one who put him and Vic into their first hockey league." She smiled again. "You really are a sweet guy, Mason," she ran a hand up her own arm before sliding it back down into the water. She looked up at the sky, where the sun was about to set.

Mason just smiled, glad she didn't think any less of him for caring for his mother. "My father would be ashamed of me if I weren't any other way." He said, his voice light. "I swear if any of us were disrespectful to her, or any elder for that matter, he would come back from the dead just to kick our ass." Mason chuckled, watching the sunset. "He taught me to swim here one summer." Mason's father had died when he was eleven, and he wasn't around as much as he wanted to be, but he tried to make as much time for his family as he could. "He was in the army practically my whole life," He told her, "He was gunned down the summer I turned eleven. It was his last deployment before he retired."

Cybill sat listening to him talk of his father, at first it wasn't out of the ordinary, but then he said 'come back from the dead' and her brow furrowed. She continued to listen to him and licked her lips, shaking her head lightly. "Oh my gosh," she said lightly. "That's so sad. I'm so sorry. I don't... Know what to say," she said. She rubbed her foot against his softly, trying to comfort him. It wasn't as if it just happened, but it probably hurt him still. That's something that stays with you. "I can't really even imagine life without my father. He's just always been there..." She bit her lip again and watched his face, hoping she hadn't said the incorrect things.

Mason looked at her and gave a sad smile. "It's okay," He said, "He died honorably, doing what he dreamed of. It doesn't really hurt anymore, I can think about it without feeling empty." Mason cleared his face from the somber expression, and it lit with an easy smile. He didn't let things from the past bother him too much, after all, the past was the past and it couldn't be changed no matter how much someone wanted it to. "My Mom was devasted, of course, they had been together for years. Grew up together." He said, "It was pretty empty at first, nobody really knew what to do. But, everyone seemed to pull through okay." Mason watched the last remants of the sun disappear under the horizon. He looked up into the darkening sky and into the stars. The water had cooled quickly without the sun's heat.

Cybill nodded as he told her what it felt like. She knew it was an honorable way to go, but it was still horrible, especially with a family back home that he had to live for. It would have killed her if it was her dad. She nodded again, "I guess that's true. I'm glad you guys made it through. I don't know how you would've gotten over that." She licked her lips and followed his eyes to the setting sun and watched with him as the last rays of light disappeared over the horizon. She bit her lip and looked back at him, "It's getting kinda chilly... Do you want to go inside, maybe?" she asked lightly, she sure did. The water was making her colder. She ran her hand through her hair and bit her lip again before she looked back in his direction.

Mason nodded at her, bringing his eyes back to hers. He stood, grabbing her hands and pulling her up beside him. "You get past it because you have to." He said, referring to her comment. "It's not healthy to wallow." He shrugged, taking her hand hand and walking back up the beach where they had left their things. Mason reluctantly dropped Cybill's hand and picked up her towell, shaking out the sand before handing it to her with a smile. He wrapped his own around his waist. He picked up the rest of their things and grabbed her hand again, walking towards the stairs.

She looked at him again as he told her how. She knew he was right. It made perfect sense to her and she figured she really could do it, but she hoped she wasn't faced with that situation where she had to. She smiled lightly at him and let him lead her up the the towels and she smiled, wrapping hers around her shoulders after he handed it to her. It kept the breeze off of her at least. She smiled as he took her hand again and watched his face as she followed him up to the house. She loved how his hand felt when he was holding hers, strong and sure. She followed him up the stairs and back inside, had he gone somewhere else, though she would have followed him still, she would follow him anywhere.

Mason dropped her hand and walked away with a smile. He leaned his head over the sink in the kitchen, and rinsed off his hair with the sink hose. When he finished, he yanked the towel from his waist and rubbed his head vigorously with it. The result left his brown locks standing up in all directions. He turned around, resting the towel on the counter under his hand. "Had to get the salt out." He said with a srug and smile, "Do you want to take a shower?" Mason asked, "Being in the ocean all afternoon makes you feel gross."

Cybill watched as he walked over to the sink and rinsed his hair of any free salt and she smiled as he explained it to her. she nodded, knowing what he had been doing. "I figured that was what you were doing. Uhm, actually, if you don't mind I would love to take a shower. I feel kind of gross," she said, scrunching up her nose when she said 'gross'. She licked her lips, trying to remember if the bathroom she'd been to earlier had a shower or if it was just a half-bath. She looked at Mason again. "Could I borrow some shorts and a t-shirt by chance?"

Mason couldn't help but smile when she scrunched up her nose. "You're adorable." He said with a small chuckle. He grabbed his used towel and turned to walk out of the kitchen. "Come on." He said, leading the way. They climbed the stairs, and he stopped at his room. Mason walked into the open door, and pulled out one of his black t-shirts and a pair of basketball shorts from the dresser. He handed them to her with a small smile. "Bathroom is right across the hall," He told her. "Enjoy." He couldn't wait to hop into the shower himself, get the grime from the ocean and remants of sunscrean off of his skin.

Cybill blushed lightly as he complimented her again. She bit her lip once again as she followed him through the house, climbing the stairs. She stood in his doorway and waited as he fished out an outfit for her to wear and she took it from him, giving the boy a gentle smile, "Thank you," she said before she started to walk across the hall. Feel free to join me, she thought, but didn't say it out loud. She was not about to come off as easy, but who was around to care? "Are you going to take one too?" she asked, turning before she got all the way into the bathroom.

Mason leaned against his door jam, crossing his arms across his chest. He shrugged slightly, "I was thinking about it." He said with a small smirk. Was she implying what he thought she was implying? She couldn't be, could she? No, he was probably just reading too much into it. "Why?" He asked, watching her from the doorway. Mason brought a hand up to run it through his damp hair, wondering why extactly she wanted to know. He had planned to take one, he was feeling just about as gross as she had described just a few minutes ago.

Cybill licked her lips, she hadn't exactly expected another question turned in her direction, just an answer. She shrugged lightly, giving him a smile, "I don't know," she said. "Just wondering..." She turned back around and started to close the door, but before she closed it all the way, she peeked back out again, deciding that it didn't matter if he thought she was being too forward or easy, no one else had to know. "Feel free to come in and kick me out, if I take too long," she said, a playful smile sent his way before she shut the door. She planned to take a very long time.

Mason tried not to think of the water cascading down her naked body as he heard the water start in the bathroom. He swallowed, still rooted in place against his door jam. She had confused him with her words. Did that meant she wanted him to follow her? Mason shook his head, turning towards the bathroom connected to his room and turning on the shower. He would either have to take a really cold shower, or take care of his very uncomfortable situation. As he stripped down and stepped into the shower, Mason just stood under the spray, not moving.
