Matilda's POV

"Tilda this may sound harsh, but someone has to tell you, you have to let go of Justin, you've got so many important things going on and you're letting him beat you up, if he wanted to talk to you he would have rang you. I guess what I'm trying to say is you've got to live your life you can't put it on hold for Justin, not everything is about him"

Eliza's word keep spiralling in my mind. I can't seem to get them out and it's driving me crazy. I know what she said was right, but I can't just forget about him. It's not that simple.

I get out of my bed and walk into the tiny cabin kitchen, which is basically just a mini fridge, microwave, a kettle and I tiny bench top. I quickly make a cup of coffee then change into my bikini.

I walk outside and look over the beach. Our cabin is almost directly on the beach so I can see everything. The waves are decent, not the best. My friends are all out in the water surfing having a great time, without me...

"Hey?" I hear a voice behind me. I turn around to find Will walking towards me. I wipe my hand over the last few tears that are skill on my face.

"Are you okay?" He ask me

"God I wish people would stop asking me that" I say with a slight laugh.

"Gets annoying aye?"

"Just I bit" I smile. Will always knows how to make me smile. I shouldn't be wasting my tears over Justin when I could be using my smiles with Will.

"Well I won't ask then" Will says as he wraps an arm around my shoulder.

"Really?" I ask quietly as I look up making eye contact with him.

"Yeah. You'll talk about it if you want to" he shrugs before turning back to look out at the ocean.

"Why aren't you out there? The waves are huge!" He says after a few minutes of silence.

"They aren't that good" I reply

I few more minutes of silence go by, but they aren't awkward.

"I think I'm gonna go for a run" I tell Will finally breaking the silence.

I walk back inside, changing into my Lorna Jane runner clothes and my Nike sneakers. I quickly brush my teeth and put my blonde locks into a pony tail. I take my head phones and my phone then I start to run along the bike track that follows across the length of the beach.

'It's been a long day without you my friend and I'll tell you all about it when I see you again....' Blasts through my speakers and I quickly stop to change it.

As much as I love the song it's just too much. The song relates too closely to mine and Justin's situation.

'Call me when you've made up your mind but you won't
Caught up in the way that you played heart
Only love could ever hit this hard
Oh, when you think about it
Don't forget it was real
Do you remember the way that it made you feel?
Do you remember the things it let you feel?'

Why does every song seem to relate to Justin? God I'm trying to forget about him, but how can I when everything reminds me of him.

I end up turning my music off and continuing my run. Finally I run into the centre of Pearl Beach. I slow my running pace to a jog.

My run didn't work. I must have ran at least 5km around the town and I still have to go back, but I still couldn't get my mind off Justin.

I slow my jog to a walk in order to get my breath back. I continue to walk down the street when I see the bob of dark hair a couple meters in front of me. Justin.
