“Why do you like the beach so much, Nutmeg?” He held her and placed his chin on her shoulder.
“I dunno… never really thought about it.” She hummed in thought. “It’s just really nice. Peaceful and pretty. Haven’t you ever had a place like that? Where you’re just… happy?”
“Not really. Well, does Olympus count?”
“Sure. Except I don’t have the desire to take over a beach…” She rolled her eyes. “And now I’ve got a private one.”
“Isn’t that oddly similar though? Owning and taking over?”
“Mm… I think taking over is more like… kicking out someone and taking their spot. Claiming it as your own when it technically isn’t.”
He thought about this and then pouted. She was right. Again. “Fine.”
