Gold Skies & Blue Waves (Martin Garrix fanfiction)

Chapter 3

The last days were full of chilling at our pool and following my surf classes. It's Thursday today and the sun is shining. It's really calm at the streets and I feel like it's time for me to go out and surf on my own. I grab my board and put on some shorts and a fancy top. I sneak out of the house because I don't think my parents would let me go surf alone. I literally just learned how to surf, but I like some adventure. I'm ready.

When I arrive at the beach, I look for a good place to dump my stuff and I put on my wetsuit. This is going to be so awesome! I wait till there is no wave and then I jump into the water. I feel the cold water streaming in my wetsuit. It feels cold and good at the same time. I swim immediately to the place where the waves still need to be formed. It's so calming here. I see the waves moving in front of me. I get up my board and just sit. I can sit here all day, just floating.. I snap out of my thoughts when I feel a very strong energy coming from behind me. When I look behind me I see a huge wave coming to me. I try to escape, but it's already here. It collapses on my head and I fall of my board.

I try to go back to the surface but when I try to take a breath a new wave collapses on me. It pushes me back underwater. I'm panicking. I need to breathe, now! I immediately go back to the surface and take a huge breath. Pff, what is going on? Sophia think, think fast! You need to get out of the water now or it will kill you! A heavy wave puts me underwater again. I open my eyes and see my board coming to my face. It flips on my face and I feel dizziness coming up. I can't stand this any longer..

When I look around me to find a way to go out of this hell, I see a familiar face. Then I realize it's the guy from my surf class. He hands me his hand and I get it. He pulls me closer and helps me getting back on my board. We both swim back to the beach. I couldn't have done this on my own, luckily he was here to help me with more power. I have never seen waves as big as these are. When we reach the beach I immediately fall on the ground. I'm totally exhausted. The guy falls next to me and when I look at him I start crying. He pulls me closer to him and my face falls in his chest. It's comforting. I hear his heartbeat slowly beating. His hands touch my back and they slowly stroke it. When I'm calm again I look up and my face meets his. He looks concerned and kind at the same time. I catch myself staring at his eyes. I quickly need to think of something to say. The only thing I can come up with is "t-thank you". He smiles and says "you're very welcome".

I then realize he just saved my life. This boy sitting next to me saved my freaking life. "You saved my life" I say and look at him. He looks at me and says "yes, I recognized your red board from the surf class we have together. I saw you struggling and I immediately grabbed my board and ran up to you". I feel my cheeks getting red.. "ah, I owe you" I say with a smile. After staring at the waves for a while his phone rings. He takes it and he talks for awhile. When he stops calling he says "sorry I need to go.. can you walk back home alone or do I need to walk with you?". "No, it's okay I can walk alone. You have done enough. Thank you so much and have a nice day" I say and he gets up. He gives me a small comforting hug and says "take care of yourself Sophia" and then he walks away. Wait, oh my god! He knows my name?!!! I don't even know his name.... I need to ask his name when I have surf class again!

I walk back home and I fall asleep immediately. When I wake up I feel super dizzy. That board hit my head pretty hard, I think. I need to rest. I grab my phone and I see a few missed calls from Dean. I miss him but I'm not in the mood for talking right now. The only thing I want is sleep and some aspirin. My head hurts so much. When my mom walks in, she sees me and her face looks concerned. I told her I have a headache. I can't tell her I went surfing on my own. She gives me some water and an aspirin and I fall back to sleep. I dream about this guy.. who is he..?
