Ambers POV
I found myself standing amongst a disarray of lights and people. It contrasted with the breathtaking scenery I had observed earlier today. The calm, mellow mood of the beachside view had been replaced.
The sun had retreated, and a carnival stood in it's place. Lights draped from every corner, illuminating the beautiful waterside boardwalk like a christmas tree. The twinkling colors reflected off the water, as if it was glowing with happiness.
People strolled by casually, eating candied apples, and holding hands. Kids shouted at each other energetically as they rushed towards the rides, their faces packed with animated chatter.
My eyes searched the premise, faltering at a familiar face. It was Damien. I could immediately feel my chest constricting as I silently begged Kris to show up soon before Damien could judge me for being alone.
I quickly turned my back to him, my eyes scanning the grounds for Kris.
Maybe if I can't see him, Damien can't see me either. I lied to myself, knowing that was complete bullshit.
I sighed dejectedly.
What if Kris forgot? God that would be embarassing. I can't believe I fell for his nice act. Maybe it was just all a lie after all.
Damien's POV
"Hellllooo? Damieeeeeeen, I wanna go on the ferris wheel." Nagged Veronica, pulling me out of my entrancing haze.
I was watching Amber silently, seeing her long, arched legs pace back and forth as her fingers tapped impatiently on her phone.
I found it fascinating how someone can look like an awkward penguin yet still be so beautiful at the same time.
She gazed around, clearly looking for someone.
The way she moves...just like Rebecca.
I closed my eyes, letting myself flashback. The world drowned out to a slow drawl as I recalled the pain. Shattered glass that exploded like a paintgun, the fear in her eyes as she closed them...forever. Sirens filled the atmosphere, that drowned out my desperate cries. I was helpless, something I will never be again.
I'll make her jealous. Make her desire me as much as I do her.
Interlocking my fingers with Veronica's rougly, I began marching towards Amber, determination set in my mind, with a buzz of guilt lurking in the back of my head.
"Fancy seein' you here, Amber." I commented promptly from behind her.
"Huh? oh yeah I-" She turned around confused, faltering at the sight of Veronica.
She shrinked back, looking more eager than ever to find her friend.
"Oh sorry, this is Veronica." I pressed, seeing Amber contract with uncomfortableness.
"Hi. You can call me V. I'm Damien's girlfriend."
I grimanced at the sound of girlfriend. She was NOT my girlfriend. As much as I despised Veronica at this moment, I couldn't help but enjoy the inner turmoil churning behind Amber's deep hazel eyes. Jealousy was a trait I could never miss.
