Only You

Chapter Three: Moving On

Liz's POV

I watch as the sun goes down in the sunset. I don't know why I love doing this since the first time my parents brought me to the beach. The sun seems so beautiful, so perfect at this moment. Like how the sun colored orange and red at the same time, how the wind caress my hair wildly, how the waves come to the shore, how everything feel so good. It's the moment that I always want to freeze, just right there. I just smile at the scene in front of me. I never get tired for watching this, or even bored.

I woke up in the morning to find Michael sitting on the edge of the bed and smiling at me. I don't have any idea what was he doing in my house, but when he said that he wanted to take me to the beach I immediately jump out of my bed and giving him pecks on his face. He just chuckled and then I went to the bathroom to prepare things. I'd leave everything behind whenever it comes to the beach.

"I'm sorry to keep you alone for so long" he snaps me from my thoughts. He just back from playing beach volley with some guys he met few hours ago.

"Ah.. You back" I turn around to see his sweaty masculine body standing behind me. He is wearing the beach shorts that I gave him last month. My bottom lip drops at the sight. I love how his body is sculpted in the perfect shape.

Sob.

"Love the sight?" he smirks as he teases me.

"Ew, hell no" I lie to him for preventing him boosting his ego as I smirk. "So, you decide to wearing that"

"You're not happy?" then he puts acting to my words to make me think I don't like he's wearing that. How dare he does that.

Sob. Sob.

"No, I don't" I say that sarcastically. "But it's really match to your skin color more than I imagined"

And he crouches down to the sand, slowly hugging me from the back. He knew that I don't like him touching me when he's sweating, so he does that. I try to jerk his sweaty body away from my body, but his arms are so heavy and big. "Ew let me go!" as I pinch my nose to not smell his stinky sweat.

Sob.

He just keeps on hugging me tighter so that his sweat would stick to most of my bare skin. "No, baby" I feel he smirks although I can't see him.

Sob. Sob sob sob.

"I hate you, Mike" as I'm still trying to jerk his arms away from my body. Oh I swear I will take a long bath as soon as I reach home.

Sob.

"Oh, we both know you love me" then he kisses me on the cheek and let me go. I feel my cheeks just turn to red from the sudden hot temperature. Oh God, I'm so stinky right now. He walks to the car and then looks back at me "Come on, babe. Do I need to hug you even tighter to make─"

"Oh, God no" I cut his words knowing what will he says after that. I stand up to my feet and walk in a pace to his car.

"It's okay, Liz. I'm here" I feel a pair of hand awake me from my nightmare by hugging and calming me down from the nightmare I just have. "I'm here"

I've been having this nightmare in the last few days and always end up by sobbing so hard in my sleep. I don't know why, it seems like so hard to accept the fact that he cheated on me four months ago. I can't take that. I don't deserve that.

I feel that my shirt sticks to my back by the sweat and my hair wet slightly. This is always happen in the middle of the night that wakes me up in the early morning at two. And my brother is the one that brings me to the reality and calms me down by telling me that he's here with me.
