Proteus didn't care about whatever dangers could be lurking in the shadows cast by the setting sun. He wasn't moving. He wouldn't go home, he wouldn't eat, he wouldn't do anything until she came back.

She fell asleep, waking up in the middle of the night because of a pain gnawing at her. She'd left him on the shore...another mistake she'd have to apologize for...Why can't I do anything right... She was already heading back for the beach, just incase he was still there.

"I've been better...how about you?" She couldn't look up at him, so she just kept her eyes on the waves.
