Ch. 4 / My Choice is You

"It's my pleasure." Seeing the smile on her face made him happy. Their moment might sound cheesy to others but to him, it was enchanting.

"We're here," Harry announced as he turned right and parked his car.

Once they were out of the car, he held her hand securely and gave it a light squeeze.

"I'm nervous," she admitted.

"Don't be. I'll hold your hand and never let you go," he replied sweetly. Taylor couldn't help but smile at Harry's kindness.

Just a few moments later, Taylor felt the warm sand hit her feet, and she heard the waves crashing to the shore. Excitement suddenly crept through her veins because he brought her to a place that wasnt familiar to her. "I've never been to a beach before," she admitted shyly.

"Really?" his eyes went wide in wonder.

Unlike Taylor, Harry was fond of visiting the beach. He would come there whenever he wanted to be alone to gain some peace of mind, so he spent most of his time there a lot.

"My family doesn't like to go to a beach with me. They are afraid something would happen, you know," she said softly.

"I won't let anything bad happen to you," he whispered as he wrapped an arm around her waist.

Once Taylor felt his hand on her waist, she couldn't help but have butterflies in her stomach.

Harry continued to lead her as they slowly walked towards the beach.

"I just want you to experience this. I love it here. I consider it as my favorite hangout place. I come here when I want to be alone, because it's calm and quiet. I just love the view. The sky is very bright and blue. There are birds flying everywhere. The sea is so beautiful. The air is so fresh. Can you hear the waves crashing? Isn't it nice to hear such sound?" he said with such enthusiasm. The place was truly special to him. He felt like bringing her there because he knew she would appreciate it. The surrounding was just so beautiful and it broke his heart that she wouldn't be able to see it; so instead, he did his best to describe it.

"It is. I love it," she told him as she took his descriptions and tried to imagine it in her head.

"Come on, I'll take you to the shore so you could feel the water," he said, tugging her gently.

Once again, she felt a little bit nervous but she trusted him, so she let him lead the way. He noticed her tension, so he tried to wash it away. "Don't worry, we'll just walk on the shore, I wouldn't let go of you. I'll hold you tight, okay?" he said while holding her securely beside him.

"Okay," she whispered as she held onto his arm too.

Harry removed their shoes and placed it on a spot not near the water, before he led her towards the water. He held her close to her, as he promised he would keep her safe. "Do you like the feeling?"

"Yes, the water is warm, I like it," she said happily as her feet was submerged in the water.

"Glad to know you like it," he said. He kept looking at her. He kept looking at her face and her gestures to find out what she felt.

As he was studying her frame, he was taken away by her beauty. She looked so beautiful without make up, and the wind blowing her hair made her look breathtaking. He soon noticed she was slightly shivering, so he quickly took off his jacket.

"Are you cold? Here..." he offered and wrapped the jacket around her small frame.

She blushed at his gesture. "Thank you," she said as he wrapped his arm back around her waist and guided her along the shore. "It's so beautiful here," she whispered in amazement. She could feel it. She could feel how beautiful the place was, even though she couldn't see.
