Flying is fun. Falling isn't.

Huh? What...what she say...? I'm....awesome...? Hehe...awesome. That was the thought that ran through Cade's mind when she exclaimed that he is...well...awesome. He smiled while trying to hide his face, which had just turned a bright red. It seemed that the two had some things in common. One, they both have wings. Two, they enjoy swimming. Never did he think that he would meet anyone like him.

He became startled when she suddenly emerged from the water. He watched her zoom over to her towel near the shore. Apparently she would've sunk if she stayed in there any longer with her wings. Cade giggled softly then shot himself out of the water while spreading his own wings. He flew over to the girl. She refused to look at him now. "That's alright. In my case, I have to be pay close attention to my surroundings, or else I would probably ram into a tree." That was an attempt at a joke. That does happen sometimes.

The girl seemed to feeling down for whatever reason. What could be possibly making her feel that way right now, Cade thought. He shrugged at this thought, then began to flap his wings trying to stay afloat in the air. When she shot up into the air, Cade started to fall backwards, but maintained his rhythm by flapping his wings harder. He would've fallen on his backside if he hadn't done so. The girl had now issued...a challenge...to see whose the better flyer. Cade took a moment to think and thought, what the hay, could be fun. "Alright, you're on."

He looked over to where the girl had pointed out; a tree five hundred miles from where they stood. That's quite a long way away, he thought. He shrugged and nodded. "That's fine with me." He got into a starting position. "Ready!"

When she yelled out the countdown and signalled to take off, Cade flapped his wings and began to soar through the air not too far behind Danielle. He acclerated and soon managed to pass her. He looked over at her while doing so and sent a small wave. But that would soon cost him. Little did he know a tree was quickly approaching. Before he could realize it, his body struck the tree with a loud thud. "Ooww...." With that, he began his descent to the ground.

Cade was starting to feel a slight sensation of vertigo when he suddenly felt a hand grabbing his own. His meeting with the ground was a rather soft and gentle one. He opened his eyes only to see Danielle looking down at him with the utmost concern for his safety. For that, he was grateful. "I'll live. Thanks...." With that, he simply gazed at her, taking note of her beauty, not sure of what else to say....
