badfic_manor | Fifth entry: The beach

[The first sound Elizabeth woke to was a rather unusual one. Climbing out of bed and dressing herself, the first thing she notices is that Embry is gone. She pauses for thought, before continuing towards the door of her room. She steps out...The light hurts her eyes, but as she adjusts, she realises she's actually outside, her now bare feet sunk in hot sand. Going to turn back, all that awaits her is a tent...]

What on Earth..??

[She then realises what she's wearing...or rather, what she would never even dream of wearing in public..ever. Just a dark red two piece swimming costume, she immediatly covers herself with her arms and runs back to her tent, sitting on the 'bed' and holding her head in her hands]

This cannot be real...it cannot....What in Gods name am I wearing? I can't possibly walk around like this!

[Heading to one of the trunks in the corner of the tent, she begins sifting through the contents]

These aren't mine! What is...[pulling out a Tye-dyed red-pink sarong, she holds it up to the light, trying to work out what it is..]

*Kitty, having noticed Elizabeth come out of her own tent an quickly go back in, takes it upon herself to go visit her. She skips across the sand and pokes her head inside to see her sifting through a trunk. She's dressed in a swimsuit (http://i48.tinypic.com/mj7ixf.jpg) herself, but isn't in the least bit perturbed or shy about it*

Lady Elizabeth *smiles* What are you doing in here, it's so lovely outside!

[Upon hearing a voice inside her tent, Elizabeth springs to her feet, fumbling with the tie on the sarong, not having managed to find a top to wear just yet. Unlike Kitty, she's rather body concious and isn't at all comfortable wlaking about in next to nothing]

Oh! I will head out soon; But I'm not particularly fond of wearing so..little...

*she smiles, nodding her head and sitting herself down on the bed*

That...is it some sort of skirt? Well whatever it is it looks very pretty.

And I don't think we've got a choice about clothes you know, this sort of thing's all I've found in my tent! It IS rather indecent I suppose, but it's either go out in this or stay in my tent all day, and I'm not doing THAT.

I know...This is the most modest item of clothing I could find..

[Clearly she finds it rather..uncomfortable, being so exposed]

We could take a walk if you'd like? I suppose we'd better make the most of the evening before it gets too dark or cold

I just liked the colour of this one *gestures to herself* But there were all kinds of others in my trunk too!

*smiles and nods, getting up off the bed*

I'd love to! The scenery is so gorgeous, and I was hoping to be able to find his Majesty too.

[Allowing Kitty to exit the tent first,Elizabeth is mindful of the tye on her right hip; there's no way she's going to let it come undone. As she steps outside, she immediatly notices the difference in tempreture; although it's still warm, the darkened sky and half-way setting sun have made it a little chilly. Either way, the cooler sand feels nice between her bare toes as they walk together]

*Kitty skips along the beach in front of her, giggling at the feeling of the sand between her toes*

Where do you think we are now? I do hope we're not staying here forever, I miss my bed and my gowns!

Oh I agree! I've never slept in a tent before, and not this close to nature! And yes, I definitly miss my dresses; I'm not sure I can last however much longer we're here in just this [She gestures to herself, and laughs with Kitty, her bad mood slowly evaporating]
