In the Middle of Summer

Wolf keeps his gaze down for the time being. After a lengthy bout of silence, he looks back at Reena.

"Well, at least it's passed." he says, "And hopefully our time together will be quieter."

Reena met his gaze. She smiled a little.
"Oh, Wolf, prepare to be disappointed," she teased, "You know I love to make noise."

"Oh. Of course..." Wolf replies, "Maybe I'll have to find somewhere I can hide from you then."

"Not a chance!" Reena grinned, "I'm gonna show you a good time and see if we can't crack a few more smiles across that fuzzy face of yours."

Wolf lets out an exaggerated sigh.

"I guess I'll just have to figure out how to deal with that burden as well then." he replies.

He offers her a small smirk.

"Just go with the flow, Wolf," Reena encouraged, "We'll find something you like doing, I'm sure!"

"Quiet time." Wolf replies, as he keeps smirking, "That's something I like."

"Okay, how about quiet time at the beach?" Reena asked.

She seemed tired of being on her feet and promptly turned and, set her paws on the top of the unused washing machine. It took a couple of hops and short grunts, but the Klee Kai managed to clamber up onto the washer, then turn and plop down on it. She leaned some of her weight back onto her paws behind her after, looking back at Wolf.

Wolf watches as Reena hops up onto the washing machine and sits.

"Yeah. That might be nice." Wolf replies, "Sitting by the water is always good. Have to wait and see what it's like out there though. Hopefully not as crowded as it was earlier."

"Maybe the rain drove off some people, yeah," Reena replied, "And of course, swimming is always nice and it's so relaxing to get into some nice, cool water."

"Well, you aren't planning on heading out there while it's raining, so people will probably be back there when we go." he replies.

"Maaaaaybe. But maybe not as many!" Reena insisted.
A playful grin spread out across her face. "Maybe I can find us some hidden beach with no people around," she suggested.

"Now that would be really nice." Wolf replies, "Find a place like that and I'll go there with you."

"What, really?" Reena asked, her eyes lighting up a little, "If you really mean it, I'll sure try!"

He smiles slightly.

"I thought you might like that one." he replies.

"Well, you seem kinda picky about your recreational preferences," Reena pointed out, "If I can find stuff that you like doing and I like doing, it's a win win!"

She proceeded to whip out her cell phone, swiping a finger across the screen and starting to search the area for a less populated beach.

"Well, we'll see if there is anything that we both like to do." he says, "If I want to go to the beach and enjoy some peace and quiet, I'm not sure if that's something you'll like too. Even if you'll probably find something else to do there."

"Well, we can do both. We can be rowdy for a while, then enjoy some peace and quiet," Reena suggested, "I do love laying out on the sand after going for a swim, after all."

"And maybe if you get too rowdy, I can bury you partially in the sand." he adds with a smirk.

"I'll only let you do it if you make sure to take pictures for me," Reena replied, "And dig me out before I get hungry!"
Her gaze lowered back to her phone as she was looking over something on the screen.

Wolf thinks about that for a few moments.

"I guess I'll consider doing so." he replies.

"You know you'd feel guilty if you didn't," Reena teased, "I'd be sure to make all kinds of tragic whining and whimpering noises, too, to go with my amazing puppy dog eyes."

"Guess I'd have to bury you completely then." Wolf replies jokingly, "Won't have to deal with the whining that way."

"I'll make sure to whine extra if you start burying too much of me, then!" Reena threatened, looking over at him and smirking a bit.

"I guess I'll have to keep that in mind then." Wolf replies.
