I look behind me as I am pushed gently into the rippling water. A little bit of water leaks over the edge into the boat rushing over my foot.
There he is, Damien, with a big grin on his face. But it doesn't look smug, no it looks genuinely happy. I can't help but melt a little on the inside as he says, "here we see Dolphie in her beautiful natural habitat, almost as beautiful as she is."
But then I remember how he hurt me, how I trusted him and he betrayed me.
I won't forget that blonde hair.
I turn back around and paddle into the lake.
The silence is almost deafening as I fight the urge to turn around. But I do it anyway and see Damien with a little frown
on his face. A pang of guilt bursts into my chest as he furrows his eyebrows and turns away with a look of sadness and defeat.
I thought you loved me.
I paddle around for a while when I hear a disturbance in the water behind me."Dolphie, I'm sorry about last night. I couldn't help myself, your so beautiful. Why can't it be like it was?
When you loved me too?"
I scowl and face him, "you ruined how it was, remember?"
He frowned and a look of anger flashed across his face.
"I told you what happened, you chose not to believe me, you ruined it."
I turned around.
" is this all you came out to say?"
"No!"
Damien yells making me flinch.
"Your blinded! Blinded by the fact that you don't want to believe you believe me! It was wrong, all wrong, the order the events happened in. You don't want to think this, you don't want to be reminded of the day you found out. The day your mum died! You don't want to be reminded of how you felt, the sadness, anger and turmoil you felt that day. But your wrong. And you know I respect you, your choice. You know I have sympathy for you, but you don't know that I care about you and would never do that to you. I love you Dolphie."
He took a breath.
"And I don't care if you don't love me. You don't have to, just forgive me. Be yourself and put the past in the past where it should be."
I felt water building in my eyes as he brang it all back. The day I tried so hard to forget.
And the truth was he was right. Every single word. Except for the part where he said I didn't love him.
Our canoes were pushed up against each other now that we shifted the weight to the edge of the boats.
Suddenly I noticed a creaking noise and realised that my boat was about to tip over.
I screamed as I was plunged into the blue lake. I tried to swim up as my vision blurred and I forced my eyes open as my legs pushed against the seaweed. I was under the boat and quickly loosing breath as water began to fill my lungs.
Jus then the canoe was pushed aside and something dived into the freezing water. I felt an arm grip me around the waist as I was raised up, into the cool air.I peel open my eyelids and look down on myself. I'm on the couch which is lit with candles, fully dried with two fluffy blankets over me. I lift my head of the cushion wondering how I got here as a note on the coffee table catches my eye.
Gone shopping for Thai, be back in 5.
There is hot chocolate in the microwave for you and if your not waterlogged already I have a bath run upstairs.
Your pillow is beside you with a third blanket incase you want them too and I plaited your hair so it is not too messy for dinner.
See you soon,
Damien XXHe really did all this for me?
I close my eyes and relax in the candle warmth before getting up and walking to the kitchen.
Sure enough there is a hot chocolate with whipped cream and marshmallows ready for me.
I slowly sip it and look up to the stars through the window. Remembering clearly everything that happened the day my mum died.I run my hand along the kitchen bench as I wait for Damien to finish whatever he is doing for me.
Suddenly his phone goes off and I see a small message.
"Hey hon, are you free tonight to come over, just make some excuse to your 'girlfriend.'"
I look down at the contact name, Emily.
Damien calls out, "Dolphie! I have a surprise."
I stare in disbelief at the phone and storm out the back door in my anger.
The sand is lit with pink fairy lights and is scattered with Rose petals.
A table is positioned in the middle with a love heart of candles.
I frown at the scene as Damien comes out in a tuxedo with a small box in his hands.
He kneels down and opens the box revealing a beautiful diamond ring.
"I know, we are both too young to be married. So I thought I could get this for you anyway. Because I love you so much, I don't see anyone else but you and -"
Damien is cut off by my phone ringing.
"Hello mum."
"This is your father, your mum is in the hospital and I have a plane for you at twelve I texted you your ticket, print it out and meet me in the cafe. I have to go, but it's urgent come quickly."
"Um, OK."
I hang up and look at Damien.
"I've got to go and, your a liar. Who's this Emily? Anyone else but me. 'Hon make some excuse for your girlfriend. I can't believe you'd do this to me!"
I storm off in tears.An:
Well, this chapter was very revealing wasn't it. It was also quite long.

Or if you don't ship them don't worry anyway.XXOO
