Perfection Doesn't Exist (Under Editing)

Chapter 12

"Justin, where are we going?" I asked for the millionth time.

I've been bugging him since we left the park. I wouldn't give up until he told me. But he was being really stubborn, not saying a word and just smiling at the road.

"Don't worry we're almost there." He made a turn and the sunset was hitting the ocean.

HE SPEAKS.

"Wait, we're going to the beach?" I asked anxiously. I wish he could of told me. I could've brought my bikini and board.

"Yes. Can you stop squeezing my thigh?" He looked down at his leg.

Sure enough I was squeezing it. I immediately took my hand off his thigh and looked awkwardly out the window.

"I never said I didn't like it."

I looked at him a bit disgusted. He just smiled at me and looked for an open parking spot.

He parked and as we got out, I looked at the sun setting. It looked so beautiful. The waves were crashing against the shore and the pink and purple colors from the sky were following the bright orange sun as it set. Oh, how I've missed the beach. 

I then started to wonder why he brought me late at night to the beach.

"Justin?" I said making him turn around to face me.

"Yeah?" He said, starting to purse his lips together.

"Is this.......a date?" I gestured towards the food he was taking out and the beach.

"Um...no. It's a.....a small, friend...bonding thing." He said smiling at me.

"Oh okay." I said a little relieved, but confused as well. I mean it's not like he's a bad guy but I just met him and I'm not sure I want to date him yet.

Justin set up the blanket and food. Once he finished, he sat down and took a beer. He turned towards me and patted the space next to him. I went over after taking my converse off and sat down.

"So how do you like this?" He asked.

"It's beautiful. I love the beach. It's my favorite place to be." I reached for a beer and took a sip. Yeah I'm 18 but with what I've dealt with, this helps. Plus many other people my age and younger have drank, so this is pretty normal.

"I like being here too. It's always my little get away from the world. I can think freely out here with no distractions. It's just me and the waves." He was looking out at the sunset.

I looked at him for a bit. That's exactly how I felt about the beach. It's helped clear my head from so many things.

He turned and looked at me but I looked away, embarrassed. I felt him grab my chin and he had me look at him. It was quiet for a bit until he leaned in slowly. I leaned in too and we both just....kissed. I pulled away but Justin reattached our lips.

This is what I kind of wanted but pushed away because I thought it couldn't happen. I know I repeat this so often, but we've both just met. Though, at this very moment, that thought didn't even cross my mind once when we kissed.

A couple minutes into the kiss, he licked my bottom lip for entrance and I accepted. Our kiss deepened every second and it got a bit sloppy but I didn't care. I ended up on top of him and I couldn't help but pull his hair. He was such a great kisser. We stopped to take a breather but before we continued, Justin was starting to get up.

"Not here. I don't want sand on us." He stook out his hand and I took it and got up. I took the blanket and he took the food.

We headed to the car and put the stuff in the trunk. Once we got buckled in, he drove off to his house. I was waiting anxiously to get to his house.
