Love Story: Us

Chapter 54

(Shilo)

"Look at the view, Shilo! It's beautiful." Rose says as she looks out the train window.

"Quite beautiful." I say.

"Trains are fun. I'm glad we chose to ride the train." Rose says. She looked at me with big eyes. She was so happy.

"Well, airport security would have found us if we tried that way. And like you say, trains are fun." I explain.

"I can't wait for Klareco beach! I don't think I've ever been this excited. Too bad the train is slower." Rose says. I just laughed.

"We should be there in like an hour." I say.

"Awesome." She says. She looked at me again and kept her gaze on me. I felt us getting closer. I closed the gap between us and gave her a peck on the lips.

"I love you." Rose says.

"I love you too." I say. Her face then changed. Her eyes got watery.

"What's wrong?" I ask.

"I wish I hadn't put you through everything with Louie. I wish we would have been together from the start." Rose says.

"Well, hey. We're together now, sometimes things happen. You might not know why, but it will all work out in the end." I say. She hugged my arm and leaned on my shoulder.

"You are the best." Rose says.

We just sat there and watched out the window. The view was amazing, and we enjoyed it. Before we knew it the hour had passed. The scenery outside changed, it looked islandish all around. We then stopped. We saw a sign outside the window saying Welcome to Klareco Beach. We get off the train, and we were amazed by the sight. Rose's face lit up with happiness. She was practically jumping with excitement. I couldn't help but feel excited too.

We got into a cab and looked for a place to stay. We then find this bed and breakfast on the beach. I tell the cab driver to take us to the location. When we get there, I noticed the building. It was a two-story wooden house. It was almost round and had a porch facing the ocean.

"Hi, there! I am the innkeeper, Lana." A little old woman says.

"Hello!" Rose says happily.

"We would like to book a room for a week." I tell her.

"Of course. Is that one room for each or one couple's room?" Lana asks. I turn to Rose. She just looks at me and shrugs.

"Uh... one couple's room?" I say.

"Alright. What name do I put it under?" She asks.

"Goldstein." I say.

"Here is the key." Lana says as she gives us the key to the room.

"Thank you." I reply.

"Enjoy your stay!" Lana says. We look for the room number that was on the key.

"So...you got one room?" Rose asks curiously.

"Yeah. Did you want me to get separate rooms? I was asking you." I say.

"No, it's fine. I've kinda gotten used to you being next to me, anyways." Rose says as she looks around.

"Oh. Me too." I say. We then find the room. I unlock it with the key and open the door. It had a very cozy feeling. As I close the door, Rose grabs my hand and drags me to the porch door. She pulls the curtains. They were glass doors, so you were able to see the beach view.

"The view is so beautiful!" She says excitedly as she looked out the glass doors.

"Yeah." I say as I just look at her. She turns to me and sees me. She looks down and blushes with a smile. I lift her head up and kiss her cheek. I then go explore around the room. There was a TV, a mini-fridge, fireplace, and a bathroom. The wallpaper had a seashell pattern on it. I took my shoes off and plopped onto the bed. Rose did the same and rolled next to me. We laid there quietly. We were able to hear the waves of the ocean crash onto the shore. Rose looks at me. I stared into her eyes, the green specks in them sparkled.
