Tom Curry's lighthouse cottage on Amnesty Bay offered peace, quiet and tranquility and it was the perfect place for Cait and Ty to retreat to after the events with Hammond. The Maine summer was mild and the small town a mile or two away didn't attract tourists. Cait had always found comfort in this place and she hoped Ty did as well. He needed the peace and quiet to recuperate from the trauma of what had happened.

Cait gave Ty space. She had even severed the link they shared since they were physically near each other. She was hesitant to reestablish it. Hammond had used it to take over Ty and she didn't want to be the cause of that happening again.

Cait spent her days down at the beach and had spent most of her nights down there as well. She surfed, swam and soaked up the sun on the warm sand. Mostly she just waited for Ty to want to talk about what happened.

	Ty nods, moving to help carry things. "You sure you don't want to take one of the quick ways home while everything is still hot?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait shook her head. "It'll take only five minutes to get home." Cait just wanted some normal for a bit. Not normal would come back when they returned to San Francisco. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He nods. "Alright then." he agrees, taking the pizza if she'll let him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait let him take the pizza and she carried the sodas. They headed out to the old truck and Cait climbed in the driver's side. The truck started up without any problems and Cait steered it toward home. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ty climbs in with her, working on figuring out radiating very low level heat off his hands to help keep the pizza warm without setting cardboard on fire. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait started the truck and pulled out into the street. It didn't take long to get back to the small cottage next to the lighthouse. "Dinner on the beach?" she asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good idea." he agrees. With a gesture, the sand swirls, water washing in more sand suitable for holding a shape. Two seats form, with the top layer of sand transmuting into blankets laid out over the frames. A counter rises between the chairs, with cupholder space for the soda. "There."

	"Not exactly what I had in mind, but it's perfect," Cait said. "Let's eat. Then we can watch a movie or two." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh, I figured, but this saved some time finding a blanket, and keeps sand out of the pizza. I didn't think they'd go together." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"They don't," Cait said. "This works perfectly fine." She took a seat at the "table". (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm glad you don't mind too much. I'll put the beach back the way I found it, promise." he responds with a smile. Settling in, he gets himself some soda, and a couple pieces of pizza. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait took a bite out of a slice and hmmmmed happily. "Pizza is the second best thing on the surface. Right after you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2013-09-26 04:46 am UTC (link)
	"I'm glad you think so. This really is peaceful out here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2013-09-26 10:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes," Cait agreed. "It's tempting to stay here and not go back to Atlantis or San Francisco." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2013-09-26 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	"Kind of... but those worlds would catch up with us here if we didn't tend to them now and then. I'd rather keep this place quiet, and have a retreat. And think of it like this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2013-09-26 11:20 pm UTC (link)
	"I know," Cait said with a sigh. "It's wishful thinking." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2013-09-26 11:39 pm UTC (link)
	"I know. It'd be nice to get away from it all, and actually get away. But its a bit of a break, at least." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2013-09-27 12:08 am UTC (link)
	"You're right. I suppose we should go back tomorrow." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2013-09-27 12:14 am UTC (link)
	"After all we've been through? How about we take the week, then go back?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2013-09-27 12:29 am UTC (link)
	"You don't have to ask me twice," Cait said. "A week it is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2013-09-29 03:02 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah, pretty sure they can manage without us that long. And we could both use the sanity break." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2013-09-30 09:09 pm UTC (link)
	Cait nodded. "You're right. Let's enjoy dinner and then we can watch a movie." (Reply to this)(Parent)
