It was hot. It was hot even for her, which was down right impressive. Anyone who knew Lexi knew that she loved the heat. She could sit for hours in the hot sun and not feel uncomfortable at all. Today, however, just seemed miserable. It had cooled off yesterday with the storm, but now the humidity was back with a vengeance, the storm having only seemed to make it that much worse.
She'd skipped out on going to The Murky that morning, which she wasn't all that broken up over. She wasn't working her ass off because Delphine didn't know how to fucking control her little pet society. The place was always packed these days and as far as Lexi was concerned, one of the others who'd invaded her space could take over for the day. Instead, she'd headed over to her little project. She was on her own today, which was fine by her ... or at least, it was fine for the first couple hours. By noon, she was hot, sweaty, and had already picked out two slivers.
Cursing the whole damn project, she returned to town. Returning to the hut, she quickly changed and headed down to the beach. Normally, she wasn't one to bother going into the water. Yes, she had a swimsuit, but it wasn't actually for swimming. Today, however, she'd make an exception. She felt sweaty and disgusting, he hair sticking to the back of her neck. The positive side to the storm was that it had turned up the ocean and it felt much cooler than it had before. Spending just enough time to cool herself down, Lexi returned to the beach, plunking her arse down into the sand and ignoring the way the sand stuck to her wet skin.
"I should have brought rum," she sighed, seriously wishing she was at some tropical resort rather than dumped on some godforsaken Island.
