REALITY

we run off to a secret part of the beach. it was a closed off area where the was close to no people around.

"what is this?" i ask as josh starts to climb over some rocks.

"just follow me, you'll see soon," he says.

i gave up questioning his mysterious actions and just did as i was told. i was confused on where we were going because it just kept like there were rocks and rocks and more rocks.

we finally finish climbing our cliff like adventure and make to the other side. we are brought to what seems like private because because there was no one to be seen around. there was a nice blanket that was laid out on the sand bed.

"where are we?" i ask.

"i set up a little place for us to lounge while we watch the sunset," josh says.

"that's so nice," i say in awe.

"i thought you'd like it, i was debating on whether you'd get annoyed walking so much and then being disappointed, but i just said fuck it," he says.

"no, no, i'm not disappointed at all," i say.

"glad to hear that, well we should sit down and watch the sunset before it disappears," he says.

"right," i say with a chuckle.

we huddle up on the blanket and enjoy each others' presence.

"you wanna go dip our feet into the water?" he asks.

"what?!" i say.

"c'mon, we're on vacation for fucks sake, let's have some fun," he says and stands up, holding out a hand for me to grab on to.

"i'm going to ruin my dress that way," i say with a pout as i grab onto his hand without realizing it.

"you'll be fine," he says and then pulls me towards the ocean.

he pulls up his pants to on his legs to his knees and then walks into the ocean. as much as i wanted to, i had nice shoes and an expensive dress on that would be completely trash if i were to get in.

"what are you'd doing?" he asks, noticing that i'm still standing in the sand.

"i'm not getting in," i say.

"why?" he says.

"because," i say.

"please," he begs like a child.

"you can, i'll just stay here to... support you?" i say, questioning itself with the end.

"god you're so stubborn sometimes," he mutters to himself and then walks towards me.

"what are you doing now, you can go in even if i don't want to," i say.

"well.." he says briefly.

"...i want you to come in as well, so i guess you're not leaving me any choice than to do this," he says.

"wha-" i say, but then gasp when he picks me up bridal style.

"josh!" i exclaim.

"mm?" he hums with a big smirk plastered onto his face.

"put me down!" i say in between laughs.

"here?" he says as we are fully now into the water, me still in his arms.

"well- hmp- no," i say.

"fine i will," he says and the pretends to drop me into the water.

"josh!" i shriek.

"shhh," he says and the brings me closer- if that was possible, to him.

i turn my face away from the sunset to realize how close we were. our lips were  practically touching at this point and we were just staring at each other, occasionally glancing down.

josh let's put a breath that he seemed to be holding in for a long time and says, "god, if i had permission to—"

"just shut up and kiss me," i say.

just as i expected, his lips are now on mine. he pulls away abruptly and the. carries me back to the sand, silently. i was bewildered as to why he was acting like this.

"what happe-" i start.

"i brought you here for a reason..." he says.

"huh," i say.

"...i'd be disappointed if we came on this trip and didn't ask you the one thing i've been waiting to talk about," he says.

"is everything okay?" i ask concerned, but oblivious.

"yeah... see i can't keep on doing this without acting like there isn't anything between us," he says causing me to go quiet, "i know we both see it, but i guess we've never taken a big step forward, hell i haven't had the balls to even ask you. i know i like you a lot because you're different from other girls and you aren't a suck up which i haven't seen in many girls. i caused so much shit to mess up your life, yet you've stayed with me.... honestly i suck at these things and i- i don't know what else to say besides a dress the elephant in the room, so... y/n will you be my girlfriend?"
