Hello! I've received some positive response and I'm back with another drabble! :) This one's something I came up with randomly, and I'm not sure where it's heading but we'll see.

Drabble: 89

POV: Third Person

The sun was a glowing mass even through the shades over her eyes and the gentle breeze that hit her body every few minutes did nothing to erase the heat that spread through her body and made her want to seek relief.

Rose pulled her shades down slightly to look around the area again. It was a habit now, to check for possible strigoi or moroi assassins, and even though she knew that no one knew about the hidden beach they were relaxing on, she couldn't help but be wary.

An object bouncing off of her thigh made her snap out of her observation, and she turned to see three little figures come running to get their hands on the beach ball, now lying in the sand next to her. A loud giggle pierced the air as Mason pounced on the ball a second before André, making the older boy stumble and fall to the side. Rhea continued giggling as she watched her brother wrestle Mason for the ball only to fall back on his butt again. Rose smiled to herself, watching as Mason grabbed André's hands and pulled him up, the beach ball forgotten. She turned her head to look at Dimitri and Lisa making a sandcastle with baby Sashya, while Christian, covered up in a hat, shirt and shorts, took pictures in weird angles and stared at them thoughtfully.

Rose sighed.

It was the perfect day, but she couldn't get herself to move past the one thing that had been troubling her for weeks.

Her father had been acting increasingly distant and strange. It had started off a couple of months ago with something as simple as a missed phone call that he didn't bother calling back to. Over the days, he had started avoiding her more, and for a while now, she'd barely seen him. After growing without a father for years, finding him and reconciling had been a blessing, but the distance between them again made her eyes water.

What was happening?

As always, review and let me know what you think :) Has my writing worsened? Do you guys want a continuation? Leave a few words, thanks xx
