The 13th of December.

18

We were relaxing on the beach for about four hours, it was around 10:30 now and my mum was wondering where I was, once I told her she didn't mind she just hates it when I forget to say if I'm leaving the house. 

"Come on let's pack up I've got some more plans for today" he said smirking as he hopped out of the seat and giving me his hand to help me up.

"You're the sweetest" I said as I folded the deck chair up and got all of my stuff together.

We got back to the car packed all of the stuff away and then drove back to Grayson's apartment.

"You can get changed in my room, I'll go in the bathroom I just need to grab my clothes" he said opening the front door.

"Ok thanks, where are we going by the way?" I asked.

"Today's going to be full of surprises" he said winking at me then grabbing some clothes from his wardrobe and leaving the room.

I changed into the clothes I brought with me, it was the shorts I wore to the beach which were acid wash high waisted cut off shorts, a floral off the shoulder top and my brown scrappy sandals. When Grayson walked back into the room he was wearing light blue jeans with a rip in them and a black t-shirt.

"Ready?" I asked as I put my bag in the corner of the room, he nodded and we went back to the car. 

We ended up going to the Santa Monica Pier, we spent so long there going on all the rides and then getting ice cream and sitting on a bench at the very end of the pier.

"Come here I want to show you something" he said giving me his hand, he led me to the very back of the pier and through a small gate.

"Grayson I don't think we're supposed to be back here" I whispered seeing a few security guys looking in the opposite direction.

"Duck" he said pulling me down behind a little wall thing and then picking up the pace.

"In fact Grayson I know we aren't supposed to be doing this" I whispered nearly laughing.

"Do you trust me?" He asked in exactly the same tone he had done earlier with the blindfold.

"Let's go" I said smirking a little

"Ready to run?" he asked i looked up at him and raised one eyebrow.

"Now" he said before straightening up his body and running as fast as he could my hand still in his. He was so fast I was struggling to keep up with him but he slowed down a tiny bit just to hep me.

"STOP! YOU'RE NOT ALOUD BACK HERE!" we heard from behind us.

"Omg Grayson keep running" I said laughing.

"Too late to go back now" he laughed as he opened another gate which seemingly went off the back of the pier with nothing behind it. He took a sudden left and started going down some steps I quickly turned back to see the security guy try and follow us but gave up as he saw we were already there and weren't causing any harm to anyone.

The steps went down a really long way all the way down to water level and at the bottom was just a small rectangle dock type of thing but it didn't look like people used it, we got half way down the steps and the further you went the quieter it got as the sounds from the pier faded away.

there were surprisingly few waves once we got down to the bottom it was so peaceful and the view was amazing, you could see all of the boats going past in the distance and all of the birds and the sky was a perfect clear blue without a cloud in sight, you were surrounded by ocean so much so you could almost see the curve of the earth, it was perfect.

"This place is amazing" I said as I sat down on the decking next to Grayson.

"I come here whenever I get stressed or when I need to think about things" he said as he put his arm around my waist.

We sat there like that for a while like that not really doing anything, afterwards we wanted to go get some lunch so we went to five guys and then went back to Grayson's apartment for the afternoon to watch movies we ended up falling asleep for most of it though and only woke up after the end.
