ARE WE STILL FRIENDS? | TAA & ALEJANDRO BALDE

my strange addiction

"I WISH I COULD JUST STAY HERE FOREVER" I sigh as I feel the wind blow through my hair, the sun was shining on my skin with the water splashing around us.

"me too, all my problems feel like nothing here" Trent simply looks in front of him, admiring the view in front of us. I smile at the sight, he looked beautiful in this light.

"I feel so disconnected from everything and it's amazing" I admire Trent, how one person could look so perfect was a mystery to me.

"you feel disconnected from me?" he turns to look at me now "the opposite" I smile, still admiring his beauty as he softly smiles and turns back to look at the water.

"let's go for a swim" I stand up, holding my hand out for Trent to grab onto. he laughed as he stood up "whoever dives better gets a present" I challenge Trent to keep this boat trip exciting.

"alright, you first" he nods for me to go into the water which I quickly do, I am terrible at diving but for this challenge I'd try extra hard to be good.

"I give you a nine" he rates my dive "me or my dive?" I jokingly question "your dive, you're far better than a nine" he flirts and I can feel the butterflies in my stomach going crazy.

"alright you go" I slightly yell as the boat becomes very loud.

In just seconds Trent dives into the water, to say it was a perfect dive is an understatement. I was honestly in shock at how good his dive was.

"okay you win" I roll my eyes at my defeat, I was very competitive and loved winning but for Trent I'd be honest and not cheat, simply because it's him.

"so what's my present?" he grins "me" I wrap my hands around his neck as well as my legs around his waist before giving him a long passionate kiss.

"I like that present" he smiles as I pull away, "that's good" I blush as I push myself off of him, slowly swimming back to the boat which had come to a stop.

I walked up the stairs with Trent following behind me.

I decided to just lay in the sun for a bit to hopefully dry off and get a little tan, not that i hadn't already tanned enough but I wanted to even out my tan lines a bit.

I tan extremely well which makes my tan lines look crazy after a while.

"is this like a date" I lay my head against Trent's arm, he was sitting up against the edge of the boat and was in a great position for me to use him as support for my body.

"If you want it to be" he shrugs "that's such a shit answer" I make a face of disgust at the answer, I was sure he could at least think of something a little better and more original.

"okay, it is a date. I want it to be a date" he replies, I liked this answer better. "okay good" I smile at his new answer, he always found a way of redeeming himself after saying something stupid.

for a few moments we just sit in silence, it was a very comforting silence though. I think it was a very needed silence as well, normally we'd never shut up around each other but recently things have changed.

we weren't the same anymore, we weren't just best friends that met through my brother anymore, we were so much more. I loved it, I loved Trent, I loved us.

"do you see yourself ever dating me?" I ask, finally breaking the silence. I didn't want it to feel like I was pushing him but I really needed answers.

"I do, I really do." he assures, this made me feel great. it made me smile even, this was the answer I was hoping for, the answer I needed to hear.

I don't know what I would've done if he said the opposite, I don't think I could've let him go, not that easily at least.
