Fun in the Sun. [Open to anyone who's in Hawaii!]

[olliequeen]

The jet ride from Kansas to Hawaii had been long, and most of them had dozed off and on during it. It had been a long time since he'd been to Hawaii, and he had been looking forward to it now more than he had even the first time he'd gone. And now, as he lay back on one of the sandy white beaches of Kauai, sunglasses on and a pina colada in one hand, he smiled, listening to the quiet sounds of the ocean lapping at the beach.

Chloe had gone to get a pina colada and while she did, she had taken the opportunity to check in on Lois and let her know the plane would be waiting for her and Clark at the Metropolis International Airport tomorrow once they were done with work.

She put her picked up her drink and walked back to where they had set up, smiling when she saw Oliver relaxing in the sun. She hadn't seen him so relaxed in a while, well, while they were in public, anyway.

Smiling to herself, she walked back to her empty chair and after throwing her phone in her oversized beach bag then sitting down silently not to disturb his peaceful moment.

His smile widened just a little more as she sat down beside him. He didn't even open his eyes, he just sensed her there. "Get a hold of Lois?" he asked, taking a sip of his drink.

The peaceful sound of the ocean was broken occasionally by Mia's splashing in the water as she attempted to body surf and her whoops of accomplishment every time she made it to shore without getting tumbled over by a wave.

Every so often she'd pop her head up to locate Oliver and Chloe on the shore, just to make sure of their location before going back to her fun.

"Of course not," she told him, sipping on her drink then shaking her head, not at all surprised that he knew she was there. With the whole vigilante thing, he was always aware of his surroundings. Which she considered a good thing.

"I left her another voicemail, I swear I don't know what's up with her these past few days..."

Oliver heard her whooping and chuckled softly, sitting up enough to watch her for a moment, a grin on his face. He waved at her, his eyes bright behind the glasses. It was good to see her so relaxed and happy.

Oliver glanced over at her and reached out, resting a hand on her arm. "I'm sure she's all right, Chloe," he said gently.

[chloeas.livejournal.com]

She took a deep breath and nodded, shifting her arm out of his hand and taking his hand in hers instead.

"I know, I just worry about her..." Especially since the conversation they had had during their flight to California.

[dl-greenarrow.livejournal.com]

"I know you do," he said softly, bring her hand to his lips and kissing her palm softly. He gazed at her for a moment. "You'll talk to her tomorrow when she and Clark get here."

Michael was laying in the sand in a pair of ripped jeans and no shirt. He was enjoying the sun beating down on his back and just...the feeling of relaxation. It was a feeling he didn't get very often, so he savored it. His gaze went from Mia in the ocean to Oliver and Chloe sitting next to each other. They all looked happy and after what he'd heard, everyone needed it. Letting out a breath, he let his head drop back to the warm sand, eyes closing.

[dl-greenarrow.livejournal.com]

"What do you think?" Oliver sat down in the sand beside him a few moments later, glancing down at his psuedo-nephew.

[chloeas.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I know," she agreed and took another sip of her drink, "I'll try to do the relaxing thing until then."

[mirrorsmirk.livejournal.com]

He opened one eye to glance up at his pseudo-uncle and smiled slightly. "It's definitely warm."

[dl-greenarrow.livejournal.com]

He grinned. "Nice change from Kansas," he said with a nod, looking out over the ocean.

[mirrorsmirk.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, it is." He propped himself up on his elbows, which didn't do much since they sank into the sand, but he tried. "Mia looks like she's having a blast."

[dl-greenarrow.livejournal.com]

"Good." He kissed her hand again, offering her a soft smile.

[dl-greenarrow.livejournal.com]

He glanced at Michael, then toward where Mia was balancing on a surf board. "Yeah, she does." His voice was soft. "It's good to see her like that."

[mirrorsmirk.livejournal.com]

"After the crap weekend, I bet it is." In truth, he felt bad he hadn't been able to try to help the team get her back. He felt pretty useless hanging out in the background. It felt too much like what he'd just left.

[chloeas.livejournal.com]

She smiled back at him and sat up a little, looking over at Mia in the water, "she looks happy."

[need2speed.livejournal.com]

Mia waved back and secretly made plans to cup some water in her hands on the way back to shore and drop the cool liquid on Ollie's tanning chest. It would serve him right for being too far away to splash.

[dl-greenarrow.livejournal.com]

Oliver glanced at him once more, a slight frown on his face. "You all right?"

[mirrorsmirk.livejournal.com]

He shifted, looking back out to the ocean and nodding a little. "Yeah. Fine."

[need2speed.livejournal.com]

"Come in, lazy-ass!" Mia called to Michael from the water. She pushed her wet hair over her shoulder and smoothed it back and up into a pony-tail. Then she waved the end of the shortened surf board at him. "I promised you a dunking."

[dl-greenarrow.livejournal.com]

He arched an eyebrow, unconvinced. "Right," he said quietly.

[mirrorsmirk.livejournal.com]

Michael laughed and pushed himself up from the sand, jogging to the water, pants slung low on his hips. "Hey. I thought vacations were for being a lazy ass." His feet hit the water and a mischievous glint formed in his eye. "You're gonna dunk me? Oh, it's on."

Michael decided it was time for a subject change. "This place is pretty freaking awesome."
