Snippet #2229990

Kai woke up with a start. He lost his balance and begin to waver back and forth on the branch in which he had been napping. He swung down and landed light on his feet. The blonde boy rubbed the sleep out of his eyes with the heels of his hands. He looked up at the sun and guessed it to be mid afternoon. He felt refreshed after his cat nap and began walking out of the woods. Leaves and stick crunched beneath his boots and the sunlight warmed his skin. He readjusted his back pack and rolled out his sleeves. He unbuttoned his shirt and let the warm breeze wash over his still sleepy body. "Hey there," he said and winked at a few girls jogging the forest path. One giggled and the other rolled her eyes. The latter made him smile. He pushed back a few branches and stepped into the full sunlight. His blonde hair glowed like a halo around his tan face. He stretched out his arms and walked towards the center of the park, towards the fountain and where all the families hung out.

He jumped up on the ledge of fountain when he arrive and then squatted down. He dipped his hands into the cool water and splashed it on his face. He ran his fingers through his hair, but it still looked as messy as before. He smiled and sat down, slipping his pack off his shoulder. He set it next to him and began rummaging through it, making sure everything was in there. He pulled out a granola bar and opened it, eating it in two bites. His brown eyes scanned the park; dogs running around, kids screaming and laughing, mysterious red headed girls, reading books on a bench. Wait, what?! His eyes went back to the girl sitting on the bench. She was very pretty, and her red hair was beautiful. He thought about saying something to her, but he contented himself with sitting there, studying her.
