Chapter 15
After a heated game of volleyball, my legs and arms were
sore.
I threw on my cropped top over my bikini, which was sweaty from
an hour long game in the sun.
"Perfect timing. The lovebirds are back." Jason, who
was on my team, groaned.
I chuckled. "They gross you out, too?"
Jason turned to face me in shock, as if he just realized that I
was beside him.
His face softened, as he grinned. "Well, Harry is one of my
friends. But, Dani is annoying as hell. All she does is whine and
complain."
"Tell me about it." I huffed under my breath.
Harry and Dani approached us, hand in hand.
Harry's eyes flashed over to me, as I turned away rapidly,
blushing.
I felt footsteps approaching Jason and I, as I slowly moved,
hiding behind him.
Jason gave me a questioning look, but didn't ask me about
it.
"Hey, Jason." Harry paused, and peered behind Jason,
giving me a gentle smile. "Hi, Colby."
I felt my heart beating out of my chest.
Oh, did I love the way Harry made me name sound.
"H-hi." I stuttered, keeping my eyes on the ground.
I could feel Harry smiling down on me, as he turned to face
Jason.
"Jason, mind if I steal Colby for a minute?" Harry
asked.
My eyes widened, as I butted in.
"Acutally, Jason and I were just about to get some ice
cream!" I exclaimed.
Jason furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. "We
were?"
Harry smirked, as he ran a hair through his brown head of hair.
"I guess you guys aren't."
I opened my mouth to avoid confrontation with Harry, but he was
already dragging me away.
My arms started to burn where Harry held my slim arm.
Harry pulled me to the other side of the beach, where there were
massive piles of rocks.
"Be careful." Harry whispered, as he began climbing on
the rocks.
I followed him, trying my best not to fall.
We reached on the rocks, as we sat on the hard surface, staring
out at the ocean.
The sun was just setting, so it was a nice view for us.
There was a long moment of silence, before Harry spoke.
"How have you been, Colby?" he asked, facing me with
his gorgeous eyes, which I've missed so much.
I stopped biting on my lower lip, as I tucked my hair behind my
ears.
"I-I've been fine." I muttered, looking away.
I felt Harry's warm fingers tilt my chin to face him, as my
face burned.
"Please look at me when you talk." he softly said,
flashing his eyes to my lips before returning his gaze back to my
eyes.
I sucked in some air. "S-sorry."
A small smile spread across his rosy lips. "Don't
apologize."
More awkward silence. It was killing me.
"Why am I here?" I boldly asked.
Harry sighed, as he stared at me with painful eyes. "I
don't know."
I gulped down the ball that was threatening to spill out
tears.
"Then there's no point of me being here. I should
go." I muttered, standing up.
"Wait!" Harry called. "There's something we
need to sort out."
ANYWAY MORE. ;D
