Blue Moon (gxg)

"I can't resist..." (34)

The rain that hit us barely lasted ten minutes.
Rays of the sun were weakly shining through the clouds now asa breath of cold wind touched my water-frozen body.

"Are you cold?" Bella looked at me questioningly.
I nodded.
She sought for something in her bag, a second after, she handed me her white shirt.
"Wear this."

"Are you not feeling cold too?" I asked.
"No, sweetie."
"I wouldn't want your shirt to get wet..."
"Never mind." She smiled.
"Put it on." And she stretched her arm for me to take her shirt.
"Thank you..."

I noticed that it fitted me slightly large.
I am about 5.6 feet tall, Bella is at least 5.8, that's probably why...

I  wouldn't want to give that shirt back to her.

I found myself smelling the perfume that was on it.
That spicy, hypnotic scent... that is driving me crazy...
Maybe it smelled of jasmine, almond, and a touch of vanilla.

I definitely don't want to giving it back to her.

I took the phone back my hand to checked the time: four p.m.
Time was flying by- although I didn't want to.

On the screen on my phone there was a text from Delilah, my best friend:
<< Ellie, I demand some news... what's up with the redhead? ;) >>
I laughed.

When I talked with Delilah on the phone yesterday, I promised her that I would tell her everything and I was not keeping that promise...

A crazy idea came to my mind... maybe now that I felt more confident about it... maybe now... I was ready...

"Bella..." I called her.
She was laying down on the beach towel, she pulled herself up.
"I wanted to ask you..."
She smiled at me in that magnetic way of hers.

"Would you like to meet someone?" And I waved the phone in my hand, smiling embarrassedly.
"Sure... who?"
"My best friend." I affirmed.

I took a deep breath:
"She knows... I mean, she knows about all this... but I trust her, one hundred percent. She would never say anything to anyone because..." I stuttered.

That makes me feel very nervous, I still don't why...

Bella raised an eyebrow and chuckled good-naturedly, "It's okay, Ellie... don't worry, I trust her too."

I was mesmerized by her words... her confidence always leaves me breathless.

"So...?" Bella called me, smiling.

Okay. I decided not to think about it anymore and started that video call.

Delilah answered immediately.
<<Bitch! Here you are at last!>> She screamed.
I should've expect that...
I rolled my eyes, Bella burst out laughing.

<<Delilah... I'm among people...>>
She shrugged and smiled mischievously.
<<I hope everyone heard that!>>
I laughed too this time.

<<Okay... but where are you and where is...?>>
I interrupted her before she could finish that sentence...

<<WE are...>> And I emphasized that word.
<<In a park...with waterfalls...>>
<<Hmm...>> She mumbled.
I took a deep breath: <<Listen Delilah... would you like to meet...>>
She did not let me finish the sentence as she began nodding and making positive exclamations.

I gave Bella an embarrassed nod and she approached my phone, smiling confidently.
In my mind I was just praying that Delilah would not say anything too embarrassing to her...
