Hiwalani-Noa sighed but rolled her eyes with a smile at Gray's comment. Pfft. She so did not have the anger issues that Kani did. She wasn't that much of a jackass either. Gray seemed to sense that she was hiding her irritation when he took her hand and she immediately turned her gaze upon him. Her expression grew gentler before she looked around. There was no sign of Keokolo or Nate yet and the luau had been on for a while. She assumed Keo would have been the first one there. Dax was wandering around, seeming lost. Socially awkward boy is socially awkward. “I kind of do, actually... But that doesn't mean that we can't have fun.” There was a light grin on her lips now as she brought her hand up, subsequently bringing his as well. She pressed her lips softly against his knuckles, nodding towards the beach.

“I mean, unless you'd rather keep your hands to yourself. That's cool too.”

Grayson smiled warmly at her. It was rare, quiet moments like this with Noa that made Grey feel all giddy and boyish. With her he could let his guard down and not be afraid that she’d see him for who he really was. "I'm honestly down for whatever you have in mind."

He got up suddenly tugging Noa behind him as he headed towards the beach. He quickly disrobed of his shirt and began running towards the water. It was dark and warm and the moon was shining brilliantly in the night sky.

"Get in here right now missy," he shouted at Noa.

Noa grinned as Grayson jumped up and took her hand and began to head down toward the beach. She tugged free when he took off his shirt and headed for the water though. Her heart skipped a beat as he went under before resurfacing. Thinking quickly, she snatched a towel someone had left in the sand and issued a high pitched whistle as if trying to get his attention. But it wasn't his attention she was going for. “Sharks!” She pointed at fins cutting slowly through the water, headed for Gray. They wouldn't hurt him, just herd him back to shore. She kept her distance from the waves lapping at the sand, her toes curling into the dry sand as she backed up towards a hill.

Gray was near enough to the shore, the water lapping just about his waist. But as soon as he heard her exclamation of sharks, he felt his knees go weak. Fuck. Well so much for galavanting in the water… He had enough sense to get his mind working and conduct his body to a full blown sprint to the shore. When he was safely back on the sand he looked back towards the water where he’d previously had been and noticed the dark fins swirling on the surface. He began to laugh hysterically then. How comedic would it be that the great Hilton would of been attacked by sharks while trying to make a business deal. He could see the tabloids now.

His father would of been pissed. James probably wouldn’t even care that his only son had so nearly escaped death. Laying his head in the sand he looked up at the sky, his laughter slowly ebbing. It was suddenly quite. The only sounds were the waves softly crashing on the shore and the sound of his slowing heartbeat in his ears.

The islander girl gave a light giggle as Gray laughed before collapsing into the sand. Shaking her head, she watched as the fins disappeared back beneath the surface before throwing the towel onto Gray. “Dry off. I don't want you smudging my paint.” She lay down next to him, careful to keep her legs away from his. Nothing good could come from him finding out that she grew a giant fish tail when salt water hit her.

“You want to go camping tonight? Over on that island? It'll be quiet... Just us.” She propped herself up on an elbow and pointed out her island in the distance.

He got up slowly grabbing the towel from beside him and shook it lightly to get as much sand off. Despite loving the beach, he hated being sticky from the salt water and having the sand stuck to him. Wiping himself down he looked over towards her. ”Camping huh?" He looked down at his attire and back at the shirt further up the beach. ”I’m not exactly prepared for camping. I’m afraid I’m not properly attired for the ruggedness of the wilderness," he joked lightly.

Gray then looked out to the island ahead of them. ”But camping alone does seem to hold some interest over me at the moment," he grinned his usually lopsided grin at her.

Noa stood when Gray did, brushing herself off with a smile. His cute grin gave her cheeks a red tint but she rolled her eyes. “Right. Because my epic tree house is so rugged. Pfft. And clothes aren't a requirement.” She bumped her hips against his before leaning against him, staring out into the ocean. Her smile grew wider at the sight of a humpback whale breaching the surface, slamming sideways back into the water. The ocean was calling to her and she wanted so bad to swim. Her jaw clenched as she took an uneasy step forward, combatting her desire, grabbing onto Gray's hand and giving it a squeeze before backing into him.

”Well it’s not exactly presidential suite either," he muttered childishly. At her second choice of words he arched his brow, deciding words weren’t needed. He wrapped his arms around her then as she pressed up against him, resting his head atop of hers.

He watched the whale intently thinking how incredible the sea and all who dwell in it were. It always amazed him how serene and peaceful it was here. Sighing he finally spoke. ”Alright, you win. Let's go ‘camping’," he said lastly with a hint of playful mocking in his voice. He nuzzled her hair and gave her a small squeeze before letting go of her.

She issued a sigh, feeling her knees wobble as his arms wrapped around her. The two had been physically close before; They'd lain across one another on the beach, she'd sit in his lap and they'd hold hands and link arms and such. But she felt that this moment was...different. She closed her eyes and remained against him even when he released her. When she finally did leave, it was in a reluctant manner. She turned around to face him, smiling up at him.

“I'll make an islander out of you yet, haole.” She peeked over his shoulders by placing her hands against them, standing on her toes, and pulling him down to be eye level with her.

Irritation flashed across her face at the sight of Nate and Keo walking about with... Well, she didn't know who the girl was. She didn't care either. Yet another haole they were allowed to flirt with but Noa wasn't allowed to even have her one. She sighed again, in a more frustrated tone, releasing Gray and slowly walking a bit closer to the party.

He heard her sigh with… was that contentment? Perhaps Noa wasn’t so impenterable as he had initially thought. Usually when a girl became this close to him, Gray would slowly edge away and put some space between them because feelings became too messy to deal with and he was far too young for that shit. But this was something else. He wasn’t sure exactly what that something else was but he liked it and didn’t want to stray too far from it.

“You sound like Shang from Mulan,” he laughed. Quoting Shang’s actually words from the movie. He was a bit of a dork like that. And he didn’t care if Noa thought so for him liking Disney movies and all. He was forced to watch them anyway when his father had been dating a socialite with three young daughters. That relationship ended quickly….

At her next sigh he turned around looking behind him to where Noa’s attentions were centered. Wondering what she looked so frustrated about he scanned the area. His eyes suddenly clashed onto the image of Keo and his merry little gang. He mimicked Noa’s sigh of frustration then too. Joy, he said tonelessly trailing behind Noa.

She rolled her eyes with a light smile at Gray quoting Disney. She herself was a Disney geek, especially with Jabari around. She slowed to match his pace and slipped her hand into his, letting their fingers intertwine as they walked. They drew plenty of stares and whispers. Those whispers traveled into texts that she knew would soon reach her brothers and cousins. Ugh. People did enjoy their gossip. Regardless, she pulled the Hilton back to their original spot after grabbing his shirt. She even smirked at him as she sat in his lap and pulled his shirt on over her head. “You like?”

Off to the side she could see the drunken haole from earlier pushing around a lanky young maoli she knew, David. “I might need you to bail me out of jail tonight...” Noa groaned as she leaned back to place a kiss on Gray's cheek, dangerously close to his lips before getting up and walking towards the haole, grabbing David by the arm and releasing him to safety.

“You guys need to go. You're trespassing.” Her voice held a tone of authority and her accent came out stronger as she narrowed her eyes at them. They all laughed at her and one reached out to push her but she caught his hand and began to bend it backwards until he dropped his beer and went to his knees. She was much stronger than she looked. “Get off of him, you cunt!” From her left a drunken red head rushed at her and went behind her, scrambling onto her back like a wasted monkey. The guys began cheering for a girl fight but it was over quick enough when the drunken sorority girl couldn't keep her grip and fell.

Everything became a blur from there. There was a lot of shouting and movement and all Hiwalani could see was haole. Then came the blows. Punches and kicks flew at her and she moved as quickly as she could to dodge them. Most of them didn't really hurt. She could handle the pressure of twenty thousand leagues beneath the sea, these idiots weren't doing much damage. She began to fight back but it seemed like more and more just kept coming. “Kaniele!” She called for her big brother though she knew he'd be along soon either way. She managed to see more than the haole, finding that most of her siblings had jumped into the fray as well but they were outnumbered.

Once they were situated back in their previous location Gray allowed Noa to put his shirt back on for him. ”I like very much," he managed with a smirk playing on his lips. Her kiss didn’t surprise him, she’d done it before in the past, what did surprise him was the fact that she was striding over to a drunken frat boy, he assumed. She had that determined look in her eyes. That was dangerous. He had a feeling he was going to have to be bailed out of jail tonight as well.

The events of the night were quickly escalating. But when the drunken slobs started to charge at Noa, Gray had seen red. A fury so animalistic came over him rapidly. In a matter of seconds he was in the midst of swarming fists and even a few legs. Who the hell kicks in a brawl? He was so overcome with the raw emotion of outrage and wrath, that he wasn’t even sure, nor cared, who he was beating. He kept Noa in sight and tried to deflect as many blows away from her as possible but they were severely outnumbered. But being no stranger to few wild and frenzied fights, he elbowed and punched his way.

At one point, he wasn’t sure which, he got knocked it the face with a bottle, that split him in the temple. Blood began to pour down his face, as most facial wounds did. He looked even more the savage now. With blood in his brow, he wiped viscously from his face and began his attack anew. His knuckles were sorely bruised, and perhaps broken, but that was a distant thought. His only motive was to protect Noa as best as he could.

Because of the pent up rage within him, he wasn’t becoming fatigued. The adrenaline surging throughout his body, kept him upright and for the most part, clearheaded. This party soon turned into a midnight matchup. The haole versus the natives, and much to his dismay he was fighting for the other team, the natives.
