Day 24: A day at the beach
*casually submits something again* Iâm so sorry :âD
Alright, that should be my last entry for this year!Â
Thanks for having me, it was a honor! (No joke, it makes me so happy to see my posts here^-^)
Jaden was definitely a fan of summer, but this August was just too damn hot.
The heat was insufferable and the air felt thick enough to crush him.
He desperately fanned himself, hoping to get at least some kind of cooling from that, however, there was little point in fanning himself with hot air, so he just let himself fall back into the sand.
Nobody was at the beach at this ungodly hour except himself and Chazz and since it was already so unbearable, he didnât want to know what it would be like at noon.
âChazz, are you up for going into the water?â, he asked, fully expecting the other boy to decline.
âSure, just let me finish this chapter.â
Jaden looked back at him, surprise clear on his face as he examined Chazz who sat under a sunshade with a book in his hands.
He didnât wear his usual black coat â by the gods, he would have died already â but instead a shirt and shorts and he totally rocked this look.
He rocked every look, but that was beside the point.
The point was, heâd never agreed to come into the water when Jaden had been at the beach with him, heâd always insisted on sitting under a tree or sunshade to keep his natural paleness.
To have him agree was a different situation, but the brunette couldnât say he wasnât happy about that, in actual fact it was quite the opposite.
He would get a chance to splash Chazz with water, see his wet skin sparkle in the light, maybe even watch his hairspray wash out and see him in his natural beauty for once.
âHow long is this going to take?â His voice was full of excitement and Chazz noticed because he looked up with a smug smile on his face.
âTwenty minutes, itâs a long chapter.â
Twenty minutes was basically an eternity.
âAnd what am I supposed to do while you finish the chapter?â
âI donât know, build a sandcastle?â
He said it jokingly, but Jaden was immediately taken by the idea, jumping up in motivation.
Sure, he didnât have a bucket, but how difficult could it really be?
He moved to a location a bit further away from the water since he didnât want his creation to be destroyed right away and began piling up wet sand with his hands.
Chazz was torn between laughing or sighing, but eventually opted for the latter.
âWhat are you, twelve?â
âYeah, on a scale of one to ten.â He stuck his tongue out childishly before turning his attention back to building the sandcastle.
While he was doing so, he made up a story in his head to go along with it and soon, he let it completely engulf him.
Once upon a time in a medieval kingdom, there was a noble family by the name of Princeton that lived in a castle high on a hill.
The King and Queen of the fine country DominoâŠnian⊠had three sons, Slade, Jagger and Chazz Princeton, who were in charge of the country until the King and Queen returned from their vacation.
Jagger was responsible for handling the familyâs finances while Sladeâs duty was to report about the political situation and relationships of Dominonian to its neighboring countries BattlecityâŠford and Duelistkingdomwick.
What the hell kind of names are these anyway?
The youngest son, Chazz, was forced to take over the cardgame- uh, the church.
He took his task very seriously and was a very dedicated follower of the church in hopes of becoming a priest in the future.
Even if that wasnât what he himself wanted, he needed the approval and appreciation of his brothers more than anything else.
It just so happened that one day, while he was celebrating Holy Mass with other followers he noticed a young boy with brown hair in the crowd of people and he decided to strike up a conversation with him about the holy spirit.
The boyâs name was Jaden and he came from a very poor farmer family that had to pay a lot of taxes to the King and Queen.
Chazz felt pity for this boy as he thought about his castle and the wealth that his family possessed, but before he could make Jaden an offer, a blond priestess by the name of Alexis dragged him away and talked to him about her brother who needed an exorcism done on him.
By the time Chazz had finished scheduling the exorcism, Jaden was already gone.
A few days passed in the kingdom and Chazz couldnât stop thinking about the brunette boy, so he took a walk through the town, asking the townspeople if they had seen him to which most of them replied no as they were too busy with their own lives to care.
After some more walking, he arrived on a farm with cows and pigs and he politely knocked, certain that this was Jadenâs farm.
It took a while before his parents opened the door, their clothing merely some rags, and asked what they could do for him.
Chazz replied that he would like to see Jaden, but his parents told him that they had already sent him away because they didnât want to care for him- no, fuck, I meanâŠÂ they couldnât afford to buy food for him.
Chazz was shocked to hear this, gave them enough gold to build a new existence and took off to find Jaden.
His search lead him all the way to Battlecityford, the kingdom of Aster Phoenix, where he was captured by border security and thrown into a dungeon.
Meanwhile, back in Dominonian, Alexis failed to exorcise her brother all on her own which caused him to go berserk and invade the Princeton castle.
Guards tried to stop him, but he was too strong for them to defeat, so they had to make way if they didnât want to get killed.
Atticus broke into the other Princeton brothersâ rooms and cursed them so that they could never pressure Chazz ever again with anything.
A nice side effect of the curse also caused them to rethink their decisions and find something besides world domination to be passionate about.
As a result, they took a trip to Duelistkingdomwick to discover their true selves and they stayed there for the remainder of their lives.
Well, mostly, I do hope they attend our wedding⊠Should we marry in summer? Itâs kinda hot, maybe-⊠Oh, wait, the story!
As for Chazz, he was still stuck in a dungeon and Dominonian caused a riot because its people were confused and couldnât think straight without a ruler.
So, anyway, it was very hot in the dungeon and Chazz finally started to take a look around and discovered Jaden who was very dizzy from sitting in the sun for so long and making up stories in his head and he was about to fall unconscious when Chazz suddenly chucked water in his face-Â AH!
Jaden snapped back into reality when he felt something wet hit his body and he tried focusing on his surroundings, only to realize that he was unable to right now.
Everything was strangely distorted and he brought a hand up to his head which had begun throbbing violently.
Ugh, why did he feel so nauseous all of a sudden?
Once again, cold water hit him in the face while he was being dragged somewhere.
âDammit Jaden, how can you not notice a heat stroke?!â
A heat stroke? Was that what was happening?
But his story hadnât concluded yetâŠ
He wanted it to conclude with something romantic⊠A kiss maybe?
âKiss meâŠâ His voice sounded weak and far away.
His world hadnât stopped spinning yet, so he couldnât see Chazzâs reaction, but in his mind he was giving him a worried look.
âWe have to get you away, nowâs not the time!â
Chazz helped him get on his feet and supported him while leading him out of the dungeon.
âAre we going to your castle?â
Water began to surround his feet and then his knees.
The ocean? Was there an ocean in Battlecityford?
It went up to his waist and then his chest, small waves gently nudging him while Chazz made sure that his head stayed overwater in case he did fall unconscious.
It was so cold, it felt so good on his heated body, but he still wanted that kiss.
There was a moment of hesitation before Chazz leaned forward, but he never closed the distance fully, instead just caressing Jadenâs face softly.
âLetâs do that in the castle when youâre feeling better, okay?â
He nodded, relaxing in Chazzâs arms while trying not to pass out.
âMhhh⊠as you wish, your majestyâŠâ
And the prince and the farmer boy lived happily ever after in the castle and adopted two cute puppies.
