Damn My Heart

Chapter 13

Becky's P.O.V.

Things have been relatively well for the past two weeks. I and Freen are going steady and only P'Nam knows because she caught us making out in the closet room on set. Richie is still living in Bangkok as there's no information as to who or why someone is planning to sabotage us. I haven't told Freen yet because she already had a hard time with the 'Toh Gemini' scene and now that she's finally back to her usually happy self, I'm not about to ruin that for her over a threat that hasn't even shown it's face yet. Although, when Richie didn't stop pestering me to tell her, I promised him that if I ever saw the threat being too risky, I will tell her. Of course he didn't want to agree but he knew he'd have to make do with my decision. 

So here we are 2 weeks and a lot of phone calls later on set shooting for the trailer for a new film we signed, Uranus 2324. It is a sci-fi movie and I fell in love with it the moment I knew there was free diving in it (and of course lots of freenbecky moments hehe). Freen was prepping for some sort of astronaut scene and was almost dressing when I heard a sharp click right above her before I dashed forward,

"Freen!!!" my voice came out laced with panic and adrenaline as I pulled her by her hand while she looked at me with a confused expression just before we heard a loud "BANG!!".

She looked shocked and terrified as she held my hand tight and hugged me. I didn't care about the 10 or so people staring at us, all that mattered was that Freen was safe. It was a terrifying moment for me as I looked at the collapsed and shattered spotlight on the ground.

"You're alright.." I whispered in her ear as she took in a sharp unmistakable breath. I help her hand as she pulled away as I went forward to examine the scene. Upon closer inspection I found the wires that looked as if they'd been deliberately cut with a scissor or something. Just the fact that someone had tried to hurt MY sweetheart made the rage roar inside me. The only thing holding me back from killing every single person for being careless was her hand threaded with mine. 

*Lucky people.*

I took Freen to the dressing room where she sat on the sofa as I handed her a bottle of water and kneeled in front of her looking at her terrified eyes. She took a sip and I kept the bottle aside holding her hand.

"Deep breaths baby..." I said softening my tone as I rubbed her hands making soothing circles with my thumb.

"H-How? That was close...." she said for the first time.

"I heard the sound before it fell. I barely reached in time but I promise..." I said as I touched my forehead to hers and palmed her face, "I promise I'd die before letting anything happen to you..." 

She looked at me with affection in her eyes and I couldn't help but look back and we didn't even realise how close our face were until that moment. My lips touched hers as I took in my sharp breath before diving in again. There was nothing sensual about this kiss, it was more of a promise and an assurance of my words that preceded it. 

"Ahm...ahmm...." we sprung apart at the sound as I looked back to see P'Saint standing there, clearly awkward, "I - I didn't kn-know...."

"Ye-yeah anything we can help you with?" I asked despite the blush creeping up my cheeks.
Freen was very interested in the brand of the lipstick on the table.

"Yeah...I heard what happened on the set. You saved her..but how did you know?"

I finally breathed at the direction this conversation was taking.

"Yeah....well I was just looking at her when I heard a sound right above and next thing I knew it was falling down on her. It was lucky to get her out of the way in time." 

"Okay...... and-"

I cut him off, "can we talk about this later?" I said with concern in my voice. I didn't want to discuss anything that might agitate Freen. She'd had enough for the day. He looked at me for a minute and nodded his head in understanding as he left the room.

"Let's go somewhere... we're done for the day anyway.."

 She nodded as I held her hand and we went out. Normally I'd take my bike but since she already had a scare, I decided to take her car. We drove in silence as she looked outside the window while I decided where should we go. 

We drove for around an hour till I parked the car. Our hands had already found their way to each others while driving but during the drive Freen had fallen asleep. While she still slept, I took my time in watching her. During all our time together, I loved her best while she slept....or she moaned my name. Her face was free of all frown lines during sleep and her lips curved slightly as if smiling during sleep. She looked calm and serene, like an angel (Well she is!)

Suddenly my phone rang startling both her and me! I looked at the screen and silenced it while she opened her eyes.

"Uhh...we've reached?" she looked around, "why didn't you wake me?"

"Well I like looking at you sleep my bb" I said, a smile forming my lips.

She blushed and looked away and for the first time noticed the destination. Her small smile turned to a wide one as she looked back,

"You brought us to the beach."

"Yep," I scooted closer to her, "I brought us to the beach." and I gave a peck on her lips.

.......................................

We walked on the beach upto the shore where the water splashed our feet. If there was one place on this earth that I liked, it was the beach. It was symbolic of calm and peace, the steady rhythm of the waves were soothing and it was my favorite place to be with Freen. She smiled as she walked a little ahead of me, I could only see the corner of it but I knew it was there and just then an idea struck me.

Freen's P.O.V.

"Hey Sarocha!" I heard the voice as I turned around and felt cold water splashing over me and a laugh. A laugh like a melody.

"Rebecca!!!" I yelled even as a laugh escaped my mouth as I ran towards her. She was too fast for me but I tried and finally managed to grab hold of her loose shirt (ha! clothes!) as I pulled her towards me. She collapsed with me with a little force that I had to steady my feet before grabbing her by her wrist.

"You think you're funny..." I spoke lazily.

"Oh I know I'm funny.....and you know it too!" she had that teasing glint in her eyes.

"You are the most arrogant person I've ever met!"

"And you love me for it!" she grinned.

"And I love you...." I whispered before kissing her.

If looked from another person's point of view, I'm sure we'd have looked like a work of art under the silhouette of the orange sky and reflecting water.

I could feel her melting under my kiss.

This morning, I had almost met with an accident and now here I was, kissing the most beautiful girl in the world at the most beautiful sight. This kiss made me feel the sparks of everything. It alleviated me and brought me back to earth. It shattered me and built me back. It made me swim the ocean and drown in it. It was beautiful and scary but I loved every second of it and would never trade it for the world.

Becky was home. She had been home for a long time.
