Real World

"How long you been surfing for?"

"Since I was three." Alexis said shrugging. "My dad taught me."

Dante nodded and took a sip of his drink.

Alexis shrugger. She downed more beer. "What about you."

"Lived in Costa Rica when I was a kid, a friend of my dad's taught me to surf. Then we moved back to the states and I had to quit for a while."

"That sucks." She told Dante. "If you don't mind me asking, were you named after the auther?"

"Actually, I'm not sure. I hope not."

Alexis arched an eyebrow before finishing hers off. "Why not?"

Dante shrugged. "All that shit about hell is too depressing. I'd rather be named Socrates or Plato or something," he said, not entirely joking.

Alexis shrugged. "Personally I find him interesting. I mean your middle name could be Loki." she told him.

Dante laughed. "You don't even want to know my real middle name."

Alexis laughed. "I don't know about that. I've heard some wild ones. Try me." she told him.

"Kensho," Dante said with a small grin.

Alexis shrugged. "Sounds cool to me."

Dante nodded. "Japanese. Means 'Zen enlightenment'."

Alexis smiled. "I like it." she said feeling the alcohol flow through her veins.

"Time for more surfing," Dante said, running to get his board.

Alexis laugh and headed for hers also.

Dante threw his board in the water and dove in after it.
