Our Honeymoon

Chapter 7

Marina's POV

I ran out of her house as quickly as possible. How could I've been so stupid? She doesn't want me, and most certainly not like this. I can feel my eyes tearing up. No, I'm not going to cry. Crying is for babies and it's stupid. Then I feel my phone buzz. A text.

E: Marina.. Can you come back please?

She wants me to come back? I look at my reflection in my phone. God I look horrible in just 10 minutes. I fix my hair and wipe away some of my tears, hoping my eyes won't be that red and puffy. Then I start heading back.

Lana's POV

What I said was stupid. I wanted Marina. And yet I sent her away. I really hope she responds to my message and comes back.
I don't normally smoke, but when stuff like this happens I can't stop myself and I light a cigarette. Fuck that feels great. I hear the bell ring. Crap, she's fast. I dump my cigarette in the sink and let some water run over it so it's out. I then start rushing towards the door, while opening it I start coughing. Shit, I shouldn't have started smoking again. "H-Hi, hi.." Trying to catch my breath I stand there coughing and wheezing. "Liz are you okay?" She says as she comes closer to me, softly patting and rubbing my back which surprisingly, helps. "Yes, sorry, I had to rush to the door when you rang the bell. I'm glad you're back, I didn't want you to leave at all I was just so overwhelmed by you and, and-" She cuts off my babbling by chuckling softly. "No, I should be sorry. I kissed you out of nowhere." She says and I spread my arms hoping she'll accept my hug. Which she does. We both wrap our arms around each other and stand there in a long embrace. God, she smells amazing!

Once back inside we lay on my couch together, watching television. I lay ontop of her as she has her arms around me in a warm embrace. I love this. My feelings towards Marina are growing bigger and bigger. As I move a little to lay a bit more comfertable she starts caressing my arm softly. This is all I ever wanted. To lay in her arms. "Marina?" I softly ask, she responds with a soft 'hm?'. "Do you perhaps want to stay the night?" I can feel her shuffle a tiny bit underneath me. "Do you want me to?" She says after a short silence. Yes! More than anything! "Well, it could be fun?" I reply. "Alright. I'll stay here the night." She says.

We put on some of our favorite music and started dancing, sipping champagne, and mostly just having a lot of fun. After about 3 bottles of wine and champagne we move to the heavier stuff as I chug down almost half a bottle of whiskey. "Man you're crazy!!" I hear Marina say to me. Indeed I'm crazy, but I'm free. "Mmmarina I want tooo kiss you!" I manage to get out. Liz, the alcohol is taking control of you. Oh shut up, I'm having fun! I move closer to her and grab her by her waist. She seems to be okay with it. I think. I don't know, everything is a blur. Just as I decide to lean in and kiss her, I feel something coming up. Not a burp or something, but vomit. I run as fast as I can to the toilet and throw up. Loser, she'll just think you can't control yourself now. I feel a hand on my back, and another hand holding my hair up. We were here with just two people weren't we? As I'm done and look up I see Marina standing behind me with a pityful look in her eyes. Not sure if it's because she thinks I'm stupid or she genuinly feels bad for me.

She helps me up and up the stairs towards my bedroom, I think.
