.: Paiges POV :.

I woke up to a a throbbing pain in my head. The thing is... I barely drunk. I walk downstairs and walk into the kitchen. I grab some advil and a glass of water and down the pills. It was a saturday so I went back to my room and grabbed my laptop. I opened netflix and continued to watch a new episode of breaking bad.

After many episodes, I finally turned off my laptop. All throughout the episodes I couldn't help but think of what Luke said. Does he like me? Thats ridiculous, why would the schools bad boy like a girl like me. I mean I'm not even as pretty as the schools slut and she cakes on makeup everyday.

My eyes start to water as I remember about one guy.....Drew. He was so sweet to me, why did he have to go make out with that girl. I bet they are together now. It was too good to be true. I literally hated what he did to me, bringing me as a date then going with another girl. You know what douches like him don't deserve my tears. I don't give a crap about some player.

I head into my washroom and clean up my face. My faces consist of mascara that spreader just to my cheeks and bloodshot eyes. I could probably pull it off as the grudge. I wipe of all the access makeup and brush my teeth. I cleanse my face and walk to my closet to pick out my outfit. I chose a white tank with a red flannel and dark washed highwaisted shorts. I put on my white converse and go back into the washroom. I then curl my long brown hair and apply a light amount of makeup. I grab my phone, my purse and my penny board and head straight out the door. I start cruising to the beach, it was never really busy there so I could think. It was nice how the smell of the salt water scent filled my nostrils, the nice light breeze blowing in my hair, the nice soft sand that touched my skin. This was my hideaway, my safe haven. The only place where I could be me.

You see, my parent used to call me a mermaid as all I ever wanted to do is swim and be in the water. I then became a competitive swimmer, injured myself and quit swimming. You get the story. I break out of thought as someone taps my shoulder, I look up and my face washes over with shock.

"Hey" Luke sighs as he sits down beside me.

"H-hi" I stutter. I feel like a swarm of butterflies have just gave birth inside me stomach and now millions of butterflies are fluttering inside there. Gross I know.

"Why are you here all alone?" He asks with concern.

"This is the only place where I can actually think, you could probably call it my safe haven." I sigh.

"Yeah, I understand, I have one too." He mutters. I turn my head to face him.

"You do?" I say in shock. He nods.

"Yeah, sometimes I need a break from the world so I come here to think."

I nod my head in agreement. This was nice. We then sat here in silence. It wasn't awkward, it was actually comforting, peaceful silence.
