"It's beautiful," I breathed, not taking my eyes from the sky. "How did you know?"
"Hey, they don't call me Nature Boy for no reason," he said, placing a barely there kiss on my neck as he wrapped his arms firmly around my waist.
"Very true. I guess it suits you," I said, resting my head on his shoulder.
We watched the spectacular show in the sky while I pondered how different my life had become since moving to Turtle Bay. Butch and Buttercup were still who they were, but they were my parents and I loved them. Farrah had been right. My parents fit right in with the rest of the eccentric beach community we now called home. No longer would I be the trouble seeker, trying to divert attention from the town freaks. Now I could just be Rain, and that would be good enough. After all was said and done, my summer had offered the new beginnings I had hoped for. I couldn't say for sure what fall would offer, but I was more excited than ever to find out.
