I wish you loved me in the ways I did.
I didn't want someone else, not him, not her.
You
So why couldn't that happen? Why couldn't you love me?
Was I really that bad?
Was it that easy to let go of what we had?
I don't know..and that's the problem.

I quickly put on my jacket, heading downstairs. I say my goodbyes to Darren and Charlotte. And soon I'm out the door.
I look out, seeing Leo's car. I ran to it, hopping into the passenger seat. He immediately turns my way, kissing my forehead lightly before starting the car.
"Are you ready?" He asks, I smile as an obvious indication.

The drive was long, but calm. No words were spoken between us, just complete silence. That's what I love about what we have. It can be quiet, and were okay with just the sounds of the world. Like the heater blasting warm air through the car. Or the wheels turning into each street. It didn't matter, silence was okay. Not just something awkward that is hard to bear.
My eyes find the trees, and soon everything else outside. The random coffee shops, the stores that are always crowded. I was okay with the same surroundings, it made things easier. I don't like the mystery of where to go next. I want to know where I'm headed, so that It's even better in person. And I was right, it was better in person.
My eyes stare in awe as the car stops.
There it was, Carolina Beach. I don't want to admit this, but I practically jumped out of the car. (Leo did too) He grabbed my hand, running towards it. Once we finally hit the soft sand, we just stood there; staring at the pretty water. In Nags, the water is pretty but not as amazing as this. I'm used to Nags, not here.
"It's beautiful." Leo said breathlessly. "Yeah." I agree, walking slowly towards the water. Leo followed, until I stopped. Which then led to him hugging my waist, staring with me. "I love this." He said happily, hugging tighter. "I know."

We sat there, staring for minutes.
Well until we got tired of it, and soon we slipped off the clothes we had on. Leaving just the bathing suits under it. Then we ran, our feet splashing into the water. It was so nice, and warmer than any ocean I've been in before. I just floated, closing my eyes. Turning off the world, and my mind.
It felt like home, sitting in a bath. The water running, filling up against my skin. Hands wrap around my waist pulling me toward them. My eyes open again, seeing Leo's. His smile brought me somewhere. Could I stay here forever, only heaven knows I wanted too.
"Kenna, your eyes closed again." Leo laughed, pulling me against him. I hugged him back, feeling the heat all around us. "Thank you for taking me here." I smiled, he just snuggled against me; pulling us down further. "Don't thank me, I'm just glad I got to go with you." He said against my neck, causing me to shiver.
