Private An Adult at Last

This Birthday felt different for Hilal.

She wasn't just a year older but in the eyes of the majority of the Galaxy, she was considered an adult. Hilal found it rather strange considering as a Mandalorian, she was already an adult in the eyes of her people. She produced her armor, contributed technology to the point where she was considered a Forgemaster (the youngest ever to be one), and fought and bled with her people. The customs and traditions of the broader Galaxy were always strange to her. She's now old enough to fight and die for a faction but she's still unable to drink, smoke, or gamble?

Not that Hilal won't smoke but she did enjoy the other two very much. Still, Hilal found it a little irritating that she's always contemplating life when she could be celebrating with her friends. Once again, Hilal was laying on a hammock dressed in her swimsuit with a glass of Java Juice on the palm of her hand watching families enjoy their vacation on the many beautiful beaches of Spira. Yet Hilal always likes to act all contemplative, pensive even. She had a lot of years ahead of her but Hilal had fought in many battles, taken many Bounties, and explored the Galaxy to last a lifetime. In truth, Hilal felt like she was 78 rather than 18.

"Am I really different now that I'm considered an adult?" Hilal muttered under her breath.

Hex was pleased to be able to come and celebrate her girlfriend's birthday, spira was gorgeous and Hex loved the beach. She skipped along in the sand carrying a tray of cocktails carefully, the balance of a shadow runner proving to be useful as she hopped over a log without spilling a drop. She came up to Hilal and held the tray out, there was a selection, enough for one for each girl here, but she hadnt asked what anyone liked so there was just one of each. "Birthday girl first!" she said looking at the gorgeous brunette in front of her and spinning the tray to allow her to make her selection.

Hex's life had changed a lot, she was seeing more conflict in her place in the scar hounds, but not having the evil of the galactic alliance breathing down her neck at all times was very refreshing. A large part of her did miss Denon though.

Spira was becoming one of Tiaza’s normal haunts it seemed. A strange outcome for a Chiss used to more frigid climates. It seemed that her celebrity was also growing in the galaxy. The birthday crew had their rooms upgraded when hotel personnel recognized the Chiss singer. When the decision to spend a day on the beach was made, Tiaza was sure to bring a pair of shades to cover her eyes and hopefully avoid more notice. She didn’t want to take away from Hilal’s big day.

It was pretty much the same group as for Hilal’s last birthday, with the addition of the green haired girl that Hilal was teaching the ropes of bounty hunting too. Tiaza wasn’t one to talk, but she guessed that Lirza still had a lot to learn. Or maybe the girl was better off as support to a more capable hunter. Tiaza watched Hilal lounging from her own hammock. The Chiss songstress frowned as Hilal seemed once again to be focused on more than just having a good time. Last year it was that she wasn’t considered an adult. Eventually she let it go, but it killed Tiaza that her friend needed to be prodded towards a good time on her birthday.

As Hex approached with drinks, Tiaza smiled slightly. Last year Hilal had come to Tiaza to learn how to flirt in an effort to court the blue-haired Hex. It turned out that not much flirtation was necessary as they had a mutual attraction and had gotten together after Hex got free of jail. Tiaza was quite hopeful that Hex would be able to more quickly get Hilal out of her contemplative mood this year.

After Hilal and Hex took drinks, Tiaza leaned over and grabbed one for herself. “Speaking from experience Lal, you’re not any different. That’s why I created that fake ID last year. Eighteen is just a line that some adult decided had to be crossed. It makes no sense, and when you cross it, you haven’t changed. Which is obvious since last year you were dwelling on this same subject…Relax girl! Have some fun. Let’s not require another volleyball beatdown to get you excited about your birthday this year.”

Lirza’s bare feet touched beachy sand for the first time in her life and the feeling almost made her forget her slight bashfulness at the swimsuit that Hilal and her friends suggested that Lirza would look good in. Lirza wasn’t fashion focused when she was growing up on Onderon. Tagging along with Hilal to learn to be a Mandalorian and a bounty hunter didn’t do much to spur those thoughts, even though Hilal always managed to look super cute. So when Lirza was told it would look good she accepted it…she didn’t realize how exposed she would feel.

Despite the embarrassment, which really was unnecessary as the swimsuit was not too risqué, new experiences were something that always made Lirza happy. That being the case there was a gleeful bounce in her step as she approached the other girls. There were drinks and Tiaza and Hex seemed like they were ready for a good time to start, but despite being dressed for a happy beach birthday, Hilal didn’t seem to be ready for a party. Hex offered the tray of drinks to Hilal first, as was right since not only was it Hilal’s big day, but Hex was Hilal’s girlfriend. Lirza hadn’t gotten to spend a lot of time with Hex, but by reputation Lirza wondered if there was something a bit more powerful than Jawa Juice in the glasses that the blue-haired girl presented.

To Lirza, Hilal was just being herself, so she was a little surprised when Tiaza tried to get Hilal to “relax”. Lirza tilted her head a bit, Hilal didn’t seem all that uptight to her. Though Lirza would admit that she wouldn’t mind a fun activity or two during the party weekend. ”Volleyball?” Lirza questioned when Tiaza brought it up. ”You can’t play volleyball when your feet sink into the ground like this can you? Must be very hard…”

"Am I really different now that I'm considered an adult?" Hilal muttered under her breath.

''What are you talkin' about, girl? Do you feel different from yesterday? You don't look that different, that's for sure!'' Zoey uttered along with an amused chuckle, as she approached the group from just having been down and dipped herself in the pleasantly temperatured azure blue water of Spira. She squeezed some water out of her hair and sat down in her sun lounger. Zoey had picked a striped halterneck bikini for their little birthday trip.

Zoey was slowly approaching that threshold to adulthood herself, at exactly the same pace as everyone else, but it wasn't something she thought regulary about during her days in school and on the ice. Speaking of which, she was probably the only one in the group that still had homework to do in the evening. That didn't bother her too much, though. The group of Hilal, Hex and Tiaza had always treated her as an equal, and the new girl, Lirza Jeban seemed cool enough to do the same.

"Birthday girl first!" she said looking at the gorgeous brunette in front of her and spinning the tray to allow her to make her selection.

Zoey waited patiently for Lal to pick the first drink. All of them were pretty, colorful, served in different glasses but every one of them looked very delicious. She guessed Hex had asked for a tray of 'girl drinks'. Finally, it was Zoey's turn and she picked a highball glass filled with a red and yellow drink decorated with an umbrella. She took a sip out of the straw and leaned back in the lounger, savouring the sunlight that flowed over them in abundance.

”Volleyball?” Lirza questioned when Tiaza brought it up. ”You can’t play volleyball when your feet sink into the ground like this can you? Must be very hard…”

''Tss, put on a pair of hoverblades and get up close and personal with the opposing team... That's pretty hard... at first!'' Zoey explained, before she put the drink away, got up and grabbed a volleyball that was laying around close to a nearby net. ''You girls coming, or what?'' she said and twirled the ball around on a finger.

A smile slowly spread across Hilal's face when Hex offered a drink. “Thanks Hex,” Hilal said as the rest of her friends gathered around her. Zoey was right that it was foolish to feel glum on her Birthday. Not much will change age was nothing but a number. Yet why does Hilal feel pensive and uncertain every time her Birthday comes up?

“I dunno Zoey,” Hilal said taking a sip of her drink. “You have yet to turn 18 and once you do, you have a plethora of doors open to ya. I have to admit, it’s a little scary even if I spent most of my time doing bounties and fighting wars.”

Hilal didn’t have a “traditional” upbringing like Zoey so a normal life for her was foreign. She remembered feeling awkward cheering Zoey on in her hockey game in Courscant. A Mandalorians life was filled with challenges and hardship. Still it was nice to relax and have fun every once in a while.

“I dunno girls,” Hilal smiled. “I feel like another game of volleyball! Let’s hunt for some victims!”

Do you feel different from yesterday?

Hex took the advantage of their closeness to grab Hilal's ass and pull her in for and kiss right there. She was very excited and gave another squeeze before letting the brunette go.

"She feels the same to me."

'...pda!...'
'...hey, no tongues...' she laughed at herself shrugged.

Hex followed the other girl's out to play, she had done this a few times now so was pretty competent. She also had excellent balance from shadow running. They split teams and she found herself standing next and behind Vletti'azan'uosus on one side with Hilal and the other two on the other. They could mix up teams as they played. "Try not to bruise her." she said to Tiaza with a wink.

“I dunno Zoey,” Hilal said taking a sip of her drink. “You have yet to turn 18 and once you do, you have a plethora of doors open to ya. I have to admit, it’s a little scary even if I spent most of my time doing bounties and fighting wars.”

Zoey couldn't help but to chuckle with amusement at her friends statement. Hilal always struck her as interesting, coming from such a different upbringing than herself. Maybe not the best of rolemodels, but definitely cool and likeable. Zoey loved to listen to her stories about bounty hunting and fighting in wars. Wars that her parents contributed to in one way or the other, being wealthy business people working for the Alliance. Zoey had little insight in all of that though, being busy with school and the hockey, essentially living the safe and secure life one should as a teen.

''Hahah, yeah... Like drinking booze!'' she blurted out and raised her cocktail with a considerable amount of booze in it in the air. It certainly seemed that she didn't really need to turn eighteen to open those doors. Hilal had already opened some of them for her. ''Booze, boys and brawls... My mother warned me of that...!'' she added and like the little rebel she was, took another sip of the drink she had in her hand. ''And you like bring two out of three of them! When are you going to bring the boys?'' Zoey continued, smiling for herself as she sipped on the drink through a straw.

Hex took the advantage of their closeness to grab Hilal's ass and pull her in for and kiss right there. She was very excited and gave another squeeze before letting the brunette go.

"She feels the same to me."

''Oh... OH! Please tell me I'm not seeing that! You girls get a room or something! Stars!'' Zoey uttered, turned her head away and shielded it with her palm, in a half serious half jokingly manner before throwing her gaze at them again. ''You're seeing that, Tiaza?!'' she asked and threw a glance at the chiss girl. ''Since when were you two going steady? Nobody is telling me anything!'' she complained, shaking her head and took another sip of the cocktail.

”You can’t play volleyball when your feet sink into the ground like this can you? Must be very hard…”

''It's not the same as skating over solid ice, no... But you'll get the hang of it...!'' Zoey encouraged the new girl of the team, walking over to her and demonstrated some key stances in the sand. ''Try to dig in like this, and then jump like you're jumping for the stars... easy enough?'' she added, and patted her once on the shoulder.

Zoey seemed like a good girl, though she seemed a bit eager to get into the more rebellious things that Hilal did. Only seeing her around Hilal, Tiaza wasn’t sure if that was an act or just the way Zoey was. Tiaza had some tour stops that were partially funded by Bradiss family companies, so they were not a complete mystery to Tiaza, and Zoey was also friends with Sorr. Tiaza did have to giggle at the mention of when Hilal was bringing the boys. “I don’t think our friend is focused on the boys just now. If you want to meet some boys. Maybe you can join Sorr and me sometime. I am sure there has to be a single boy on his crew. Even though the girls seem to flock to it.” There was a degree of jealousy in her tone, but she knew that Sorr was faithful.

As if to cement Tiaza’s statement about Hilal and boys, Hex reached out and grabbed Hilal. Tiaza gave a smile at the PDA Hex gave to Hilal. She giggled at Zoey’s reaction. “It hasn’t been long I don’t think. Or they aren’t announcing it…but adults don’t have to go steady to grope each other in public it seems,” Tiaza gave another smile. The sight had made the young Chiss songstress wish that Sorr Kortu was here. Though this was a girl’s trip to celebrate Hilal’s birthday and Sorr would be out of place. Still Tiaza couldn’t help a bit of jealousy that Hilal got to have her girlfriend along on such a trip. Tiaza certainly couldn’t get mad though. Hilal deserved this and she fought a bit for it. Not like Tiaza and Sorr just stumbling into something so great.

It seemed illogical that she would have to play given her performance last year, no practice or reason to believe that she had improved and an odd number of players. But sure enough Tiaza ended up on the court as a player. And on the short team. It would have been better if she could have been on the three person team. Maybe she could hide and let the others take the bulk of the action. “You’re telling me not to hurt them?” Tiaza gave a giggle.

“More likely you’re gonna hurt yourself covering for my incompetent ass,” the Chiss retorted with another laugh. Tiaza listened to the back and forth between Zoey and Lirza and couldn’t help but think that the green haired Mandalorian, new to the group this year, would pick up the game just fine and the other team was going to wipe the beach with Tiaza and Hex.

Lirza chuckled a bit when Zoey talked about her three B’s. The bounty hunter in training hadn’t had only had recent experience with the first and third B’s, and next to none with the middle one. With all the focuses Lirza had had in her life so far she hadn’t delved into her sexuality too much. She supposed that boys would be her focus as well. ”You guys know Sorr?” It wasn’t like Lirza was close to the smuggler captain, but she had been with him on the mission to spring Hex free. It seemed it was a small galaxy. ”He does seem to have mostly girls around him. Maybe that’s cause he knows we’re better at things than most boys,” she said with a chuckle. ”Though if he does know some boys I wouldn’t mind tagging along and meeting some.”

The thought was interrupted with Hex and Hilal locked in a kiss. Lirza knew the two were a couple because she had been working closely to get experience as a bounty hunter with Hilal. It was cute to hear Lal talk about Hex, but it was a bit shocking seeing it in person for the first time. Lirza laughed at Zoey’s response. Tiaza’s response was a bit less shocked. Tiaza had been all around the galaxy, she’d probably seen this thing all over, and she had a boyfriend so an easy comparison was made. ”Obviously it happens. But some of us aren’t used to seeing it.”

Thankfully the group’s focus moved to volleyball pretty quickly. Lirza’s competitive side made her smirk at the teams that had been arranged. Especially hearing Tiaza complain about having to play and being bad at it. Zoey’s statement that running around in sand would be just like skating on ice wasn’t very comforting to Lirza. Though now she was determined to try skating on ice. There were a couple sports that focused on that, and sports were good for Lirza’s development in other areas. Lirza took Zoey’s advice and nodded, blushing a bit as she was patted on the shoulder. ”Alright Lal. You’re the birthday girl, you start up the game!”
