"And i think i found our new challenge..."

i said getting the amazing idea of a sand building challenge.

me and my dad always used to do these stuff,he was the one to teach me how to do a castle with sand, we used to play the princess and the king...

i wish my dad could be here right now...

"Hello? where did you go?!"

i heard Jay's voice when i noticed that i was left in my own world.

"uh...yeah?"

"what's your idea for the next challenge?"

this time i'm sure i'll win, and i don't really care about what i am going to ask him, the important thing here is that he won't ask me anything!!

"sand castle"

we started building our castles, i was doing fine ,but he was a horrible mess.he tried to fix a side and the side falls apart,i was dying from laughing while watching him, and it's the first time that i laugh this much in ages...maybe that's what make him special.

i came closer sitting on the sand beside him,

" having trouble?" i side trying to hide my laughter.

"No i'm good, you can keep your work"

oh i get it he's trying to do that I'm-a-cool-guy-i-don't-need-your-help style, it's his lost at the end you know!

when i'm done with my castle, i sat there staring at it...

it reminds me of my father
of the smile of my father
the smell of my father
the hug of my father
everything about him...
and how much i've missied him.

you have no idea how hard it is to live with only one parent, and that one parent doesn't even care about you.

i feel a tear slipped on my cheek, but i didn't bother to wipe it...
for a second i forgot about Jay's presence, but when he sat next to me and said...

"We can leave if you want..."
the concerned look of his face, makes me wanna cry even more, because it's the first time that i feel like there's someone who actually cares about me!

"No i'm okay"
i said finally wiping my tears and getting up to check on Jay's castle.

"oh you did a great job but not as good as mine"
i said retaking my energy.

"Emmm...yup i admit it, you win this time"
he said looking at the ground then looking back at me with a little smile.

"So...princess, what do you wanna ask me?"
he said getting closer to me.

i was confused, i mean i didn't think about my question all i thought about was winning this round.

"emm...i don't know...why did you break up with your last girlfriend?"

"nice question..."
he said looking at the see.
we stood there for a minute with a silent, waiting for his answer to finally come out.

"She... cheated on me..."
he said still not looking at me, like if he's embarrassed to say it.
then he added

"I loved her...a lot...it's true i hang out with loads of girls before i met her but i swear i stoped the moment we met, she was so nice and beautiful but she was the complete opposite from the inside...one day she told me we can't go out cause she has exams and...i saw her kissing someone in front of her house...i..."

"hey hey look you don't have to continue it's just a stupid game and..."

he turned around ,so we're facing each other now.
"I promised...i couldn't stand it, i punched him right in the face and she was defending him.When her brother found out , he started chasting me to get revenge and we've been moving from a town to another from a city to a city, but this time i chose here cause i used to live here when i was a kid and i have friends here."

"that's a sad story."

Really Riley?Really!
that's all you could say!

"Well...of course not mentioning the 'moving to here' and the 'friends' parts of it."

i said looking at his hot chocolate eyes.

"so what's the next game?"

"Oh you choose."

"hmmm...okay"
he started looking around searching for something.
then his eyes paused on a little restaurant.

"You hungry?"he said.

"No! We're not cooking right!"

this time i'm clearly the looser since he's an amazing cook, and all i can do is bread and jam.

we went to that restaurant,he introduced me to the director there,
they know each other from some cousinship or something, i wasn't that focused.

anyway, he leaded us to the kitchen and we start cooking.

there is sooooo much things over here and i don't know what to do.
and i can start smelling the amazing smells coming from Jay's part of the kitchen.

i remembered my grand-ma's favorite recipe but of course i don't remember it all, so i start adding things as i like.

when i puted the chiken legs in the oven they looked so delicious but when they came out...i'm not gonna say bad, just not your favorite dish  on the dining table...

but Jay's food is...A-MAY-ZIN!!

it looks amazing, it smells amazing, it tastes amazing, it's simply Amazing!

and that means one thing...
he's the winner of the challenge!

"so?"
he said giving a smirk with a raised eyebrow.

"so what?"
i said looking at the floor giving him that I-don't- know-what's- your-talking about look.

"You know i'm the winner in this challenge right?"

"mmhhmm and what?"
i said playing the stupid role again.

"That means i'm aloud to ask my question."

"maybe"

he gave that cute smile of his and then said.
"Why did You break up with your boyfriend?"

"you'll be surprised if you knew."
