Harry pulled himself up from the sand with a grumble, spitting out a bit more of the sand, watching the Seagull hop towards him once again, letting out more squawks.
Harry's left ear, the one still attached to his ear, fizzled slightly. "Huh?" He asked himself, moving to pull his music player out to check the connection.

He found the connection was fine and the music player wasn't damaged at all, he moved the earbud from his ear and looked at it, trying to see if [i]that[/i] was broken as well. The seagull moved quickly, grabbing the cable of the headphones while Harry was distracted and moved to try and fly away, causing Harry to stand up and grab the music player before it could fall from the cable.

Harry's ears twitched as he heard a splash into the water but was too focused on getting their stuff back from a taunting gull. "Give." He tugged, "It." He pulled again, narrowing his eyes, "Back!" He pulled once last time, his headphones breaking in half before the gull flew off with the top half as Harry tumbled back into the sand and slid back towards the water.

Harry felt tears ebb at the edges of his eyes as he realized his soft music was gone, but the soft sound of the waves made him feel slightly better. He stifled a sob as he sat up towards the sea, watching the waves carefully.
