"You missing something?" Amelia smiles as she looks down at his attire.

"Yeah...Jackson seems to run off with your friend again. I don't know where he's gone this time. She must be really something." He sounds cross.

"I was talking about your clothes, Arthur." She sighs as she rolls her eyes and sits down next to him.

"You missing something?" Amelia smiles as she looks down at his attire.

"Yeah...Jackson seems to run off with your friend again. I don't know where he's gone this time. She must be really something." He sounds cross.

"I was talking about your clothes, Arthur." She sighs as she rolls her eyes and sits down next to him.
"You know, as much as I like this island...I think I'm ready for a change." She says softly trying to strike up a conversation with what seems like a brick wall.

"All you are is change, Amelia." Arthur replies flatly.

"...someone pee in your breakfast?" She snaps coldly.
"...you did more than that, honey." He says as she lays back.

"I told you I was sorry." She replies very quietly, almost in shame.

"Were you?" He stares up at the clouds and wonders if they're looking at the same cloud.
"I've never been anything but honest with you, Arthur. You know that."

"Your apology was accepted." He says in sort of tone to remind her.
"Have you always been so mean?" She smiles not taking his comments and cold-shoulder to heart.

"That's another thing you did." He replies casually.

"So, everything's my fault?" She looks over at him.
"I wouldn't say 'everything'...but, pretty close." He smiles to himself as she looks away.

"...how's your heart, Arhtur?" Amelia asks as she rises to her feet.

"What do you mean by that?" He looks up at her.
"Is it cold as ice? Hard as steel? Bruised and broken?" She asks quietly.

"...why?" He questions with no answer for her's.
"Arthur!" Jackson screams as he runs full speed across the beach at them.

"Amelia!" Brendel, running after Jackson, calls her best friend with much excitement.

Arthur rises to his feet, and he and Amelia meet their friends in the middle.

"Pack your bags, man." Jackson smiles. "We're headed to the Mountains. My girl wants to see snow."
"Your girl?" Arthur chokes with a smile.

"Dude...just pack your bags!" Jackson laughs. "It's my money, my call remember." Arthur smiles and nods in agreement.

"Yes, sir." He heads off to the bungalow to pack his things.
"...you going, too?" Amelia asks sadly.

"I am. I told him that I was grew up with snow and I haven't seen any since, he said 'let's go' and I didn't hesitate." She smiles shamefully knowing what's going through Amelia's mind.
Amelia looks down at the sand.

"He's everything I've ever wanted, Amelia!" Brendel begins to justify herself. "He offered...I took it. He's paying for everything."

"You don't need to justify yourself." Amelia smiles, happy for her friend.
"Arthur's going, I'm sure he'll invite you." Brendle smiles not knowing that the two f them are still not on good terms.

"Yeah, right. Arthur hates me." Amelia looks out at the beach trying to keep her chin up.
"I can talk to Jack, see what he says." Brendel offers, but Amelia kindly declines.

"No, it's okay. You go out...have the time of your life. Take lots of pictures, I've always want to see the snow." Amelia smiles sadly.
"Are you sure?" Brendel, feeling quite awful, stares back at Amelia. "Of course. " Amelia reaches forward and hugs her. "Just don't forget to take pictures...build a snowman for me, okay?"

"Definitely." Brendle squeezes hard, and then they part.
"I'll miss you." Brendel says softly.

"You, too." Amelia smiles back. "You'd better go pack."
Arthur, still trying to swallow Amelia's comment, heads back inside to talk to Jackson. "Is Amelia coming?" Jackson asks casually as Arthur enters the room.

"She thinks I hate her." Arthur replies with a heavy heart.

"Do you?" Jackson has been wondering this question since they first met the girls on the beach.
"No, of course not." Arthur replies quickly. "I just wanted her to know what it was like."

"Well...I suggest you find a way to show her an apology and an invitation all at once." Jackson smiling softly.
Arthur smiles ear to ear, and then sighs heavily.

"I guess you're right." He looks down at his feet. "It's about time."

    [b]I want to apologize to everyone. I was uploading Part 7, and accidently overwrote Part 6. So, for those that didn't get to see Part 6 before I overwrote it, here's the scoop. Amelia turns Arthur down for a date because she's been hurt in the past. Arthur then returns home and grows up. He then is seen with his best friend in their own place who just got a bonus at work so they go on vacation back to Twikkii Island, where Amelia and her friend Brendel are living. Amelia and Arthur surprisingly meet up, and aruge for bit. Arthur still holds a grudge for Amelia because when they were younger, he felt like he'd been used. Amelia lived on the Island, so any boy that came there for vacation were fair game. So, they grow up...blah blah, and Arhur is still upset. Amelia tells him that he's the only boy she ever felt any regret for and the only one she looked forward to seeing, but he never came back. He sort of half-forgives her at this point. Brendel and Arthur's friend Jackson, run off together for a day and night, and thus we're at Part 7. If I've completely lost you, feel free to PM me if you have any questions. [/b]
