Just a dream

t w e n t y t h r e e

I suggest listening to Taylor swift's song- Wildest dreams whilst reading this but it's up to you, I'll let you know when would be the best time.

"S-Sam" I stutter as I look up at the boy I once knew

"Hello Gabriella" he smirks down at me

"What are you doing here?" I stand up so I am level with him, even though he is way taller

"Oh you know, just thought I'd check out the city" he looks around

"Oh" I mumble

"I'm actually staying with Nash"

"You are? he didn't mention that before" I slightly roll my eyes

"I told him not to" he shrugs

"Why?" I furrow my eyebrows

"I thought it would be best for you not to know I'm here" he stares at me, making me feel self conscious

"I see" I wrap my coat around my body

"It was nice seeing you anyway, Sam" I break the eye contact

"You're going to see him aren't you?" he sighs

"If you mean my boyfriend then yes, today is our anniversary" silence fills the air

"Wow, how long?" his eyes widen

"A year" I give him a side smile

he nods, I can't ignore the fact that he looks upset, but why?

"Like I was saying, it was nice seeing you Sam but I have plans"

listen to wildest dreams now.

"Can it wait a little?"

I frown, clearly confused

"I want to take you somewhere" he smiles

"But I-" he cuts me off

"Please" he begs

"Okay, but we can't be long" I sigh

"Great" I sense his sarcasm

he whistles and a taxi pulls up to the street curb, I've been living here two years and never been able to do that

Sam gives the driver an address that I don't recognise

"Where are we going?" I ask Sam

"You'll see" he smirks

35 minutes later the taxi stops at a little beach with a cliff

Sam climbs out of the taxi and pays the driver, I follow his actions but thank the driver instead

"Shall we?" he indicates for us to go onto the small beach

I walk ahead and walk onto the sand

"Beautiful, isn't it?" he looks out at the water

"It's no California but it's still beautiful" he continues

"Why did you bring me here Sam?" I face him

"Well I know how much you love beaches, I mean Nash told me that you did" he shrugs

"That still doesn't explain why we're here" I look back out at the view

"I needed to see you"

"You don't know me"

"But I feel like I do, ever since that dream I had about you, I can see everything more clear"
