Rosie avenue

A walk to remember

           I took my shoes off and put them in my hands. The feeling of the sand on my toes reminded me of all the days Clara and I would sneak down here and build sand men but my dad would find is and build one too. I wiped my eyes.
        I walked closer to the water. Then I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around and saw Ricky. "Chloe your not okay I can tell" he said. "Your smart. I'm not good enough Ricky." I said looking down.
        "Okay this probably isn't the best time to say this but.." Ricky said as we walked along the water. I was suspicious.. "Chloe" he said turning toward me. "Yeah?" I questioned. "Pretending not to love you was the hardest thing I've ever done" he said looking at me. I started crying again. He hugged me and swaddled me. "Ricky" I said coughing. "Yeah" he said still hugging me.
       "Right back at you" I said and he had his arms around me but looked at me. He looked confused. "I love you too Ricky" I said smiling. "I love you because you took me by surprise and taught me about love at first sight. You held me when everybody else left me. I fell in love Ricky" I said and he wiped my tears. "I saw you and smiled before you could even speak lukasiak. I new I liked you but I learned I loved you when I saw he pain in your eyes but the smile on your face. They say you never know how strong you are until it's your only option.. Witch I didn't believe in. And I still don't cause of you. You've always been strong, you've always kept holding on. And Chloe Elizabeth lukasiak,  I really love you" Ricky expressed.
       "I wanted to make you happy. More than myself. That's love.. That's how my parents fell in love" I said sniffing. Ricky leaned in and kissed me. My butterflies were dancing like the were at the club or something.. I've never ever felt this way before. He looked at me and kissed me again.
