Watching her trouble with her suitcase, I make my way towards her. But ceased, I can't do that. Shaking my head, I twirled around and back off. I know I tend about her, this bastard right here on my left in my chest wants her but she is already someone else's, not just someone's but my best friend's Rayce's.

We have reached Le Bristol, after a 7hr tiring journey. The good thing is they have booked Le Bristol, which after only one stay feels like home. I need this vacation, to clear my thoughts, feelings, which somewhat are a lot stronger than I thought them to be.

The night is still young, while the chill breeze is blowing at a slow pace. The coldness outside is nothing compared to the coldness growing inside my heart. I didn't want to come and after knowing that, Avery is Rayce's girlfriend, I somehow wasn't able to control myself.

God, I feel like a lovesick

They have let us roam around the hotel, as it's night and we can't travel further. I am on the terrace after freshening up, I came out to breathe fresh air. My room is still untouched, I have just placed the suitcase in the cupboard and got freshen up. The green grass is covering the whole lawn, while the top of the Eiffel tower comes in sight faraway just like her.

God

The lamps are lit on the boundaries of the terrace, giving minimum light. The urge to swim right now, in the middle of the night takes over. The whole hotel has gone quiet, with few people still wide awake, roaming around. Not even a single person from Westwood comes insight as I make my way to the swimming pool. I know the way, at the tip of my fingers. Dad had always make sure to book a comfortable place for me & my mom whenever he use to go somewhere. When I was small, mom and I use to accompany him on his every trip. But mom doesn't find comfort anywhere except for her bedroom so now we don't.

Sliding my jeans off, so I am in my boxers only. Filling my lungs with air, I leap through the air, in a short period my skin comes in contact with the warm blue water. Surprisingly, the water is clear. I dive deep through water going deeper and deeper, as much as this swimming pool allows me to. I swim to get away from everything, which includes the girl who has been disturbing me since I saw her after two years again. How everything feels better with her but am I better for her?

No

I feel the pressure of my lungs wanting air, but I keep going. It feels a lot like the strain of staying away from her. It's like I can feel myself catch her but when I get near her, my demons don't let that happen. Reminding me of all my bad deeds, and what I am. A typical bad boy, who has never even once in his life cared about someone, who is too passionate about soccer that I can give anything up for it.

The darkness slides under my skin, trying to borrow my body without asking so that my hands become its hands, my legs its legs. I dive deeper, lungs tight and burning. I feel a burning sensation same as compare to the one I had when I saw him with Avery.

Oh she, she is his girlfriend

The voice of Cray goes through my thick skull. No, I ain't planning on dying or do suicide. I am just trying to absorb the fact, that there is no us. I am bad way more worst for her while she is sweet, kind, naive. There is nothing alike in us. While Rayce is her type good, smart, kind. He hides that side of him from everyone except for Avery. He showers her with it.

I finally hit the air, I shake my head like a dog drying his furs. My eyes halt on her, who is sitting on the viewpoint, dangling her feet. Tan legs

Oh, and she is not just in her - normal outfit

She is wearing a bikini?

God, I am for sure dreaming

I dive down deep into the water again to clear my eyes, I can feel the water, rubbing my eyes, I go up again. But still, she is there, but this time standing, wearing a cloak over her shoulder.

Swallow me in

Clearing my throat, more like my thoughts I come out through the stairs and sit at the heap. She is still standing, watching me. Getting up, I move my way towards her, the water droplets dripping down my feet.

" what are you doing here?". I inquire, keeping my gaze down. " Nothing just came here to inhale fresh air " . she answered. I scoffed at her answer.

Fresh hair near the swimming pool?

" what were you doing there? ". She mumbles. I look at her again, more as I linger from her eyes to her lips, which she is hitting then down her body.

Perhaps, she is talking in her sleep. Looking at my gaze, she corrects herself " I mean what took you so long, you know how scared I was?". she mumbles looking downwards.

A smile appears on my lips which would be colorless now, the water numbs your skin, at hearing her say that she got scared.

Avery blake got scared? Of me? Or water?

" of what? Elaborate ". I ask her looking her in the eye, stepping close to her.

" I thought you died ".

I ball into a fit of laughter. God, she is so funny. I laugh aloud till my stomach couldn't take anymore. I cover myself when I see her being serious. That was pretty bad

" Why? do you care about me? ". I ask her seriously. Taking steps further. I know for about a meter there is a wall then she won't be able to escape. Neither I want her to fly away as she does every time. I want to know if she feels the same about me.

" No - I don't care about you " . she said not looking me in the eye. " say that again!, but look me in the eye this time " I notify her

" No, I don't care about you " she mumbles looking me in the eye. A piece of my heart shatters cause of her words.

Fuck

" then stop doing this to me,- it fucking kills me - ".I growled and walkway. Leaving her stunned.
