After showing Damien where to go, (He hadn't been to Mako bay in a long time) we parked up next to Jules' batch and got our gear out and decided to get changed first and have a swim then think about everything else afterwards.

Luckily at the batch there's an outside shower tent so we used that to get changed. I have to say it was amazing getting to look at Damien in all his shirtless glory. His shoulders were simply amazing. And his six pack was pretty irresistible too. as he led the way to the beach, I couldn't help but notice his broad back and the muscles that moved as he walked. It was incredibly mesmerising. So drool worthy.

We swum for a while but I started getting hungry so we went back to the truck and I noticed that Damien had already prepped the picnic on the back and even had the blanket out so that was nice to just sit and eat on the truck. We didn't speak very often and I felt like there wasn't an increasing pressure to keep a conversation, as we both were very comfortable and our actions were very in sync with each others.

As I leant back on the back of the cab I spoke.

'This is exactly how a day like this should be spent. Relaxing at the beach, a delicious lunch and - Damien cut me off, 'gorgeous company.' He smiled at me and I was terribly embarrassed at his comment. 'Pretty sure you're just talking about yourself aren't you? A little narcissistic are we?' I told him and he laughed at my comment.

'Maybe just a little, but that comment was definitely about you.' And at that I laughed.

'Oh stop it! I'm going red!' and I pushed his taut, hard chest. Just cos I wanted to... and it felt good.

'Please do, you look even better.' He smirked at me and he knew he had got to me and so I looked away before I exploded from the heat that suddenly overcome me as he said those words.

I let out a huge sigh and decided to ignore his presence and got back to my tanning. Damien started to pack away the food and clean the area and I felt him lie next to me. I opened an eye and looked over and saw him staring back at me. His arm was touching mine and the heat was bouncing off us as I felt his hand rest next to mine. I closed my eye and turned my head back towards the sun.

I tried to ignore the pounding that thundered in my chest as my senses became hyper aware of their surroundings. I could hear the steady breaths he took, the Tui calling off in the distance, his finger that was moving across mine, the heat from the sun, the aftertaste of the drink we had, which was slightly curdling in my stomach and the smell of the salty air that intermingled slightly with the smell of sunscreen and sweat.

Is this what it's like when you like someone?

When you feel like your ribs can barely contain the heart that's beating furiously in your chest?

And you can't focus on any one thing except them whenever they're around?

Like your palette has dulled and you take a bite out of the juiciest watermelon. The kind where you suck it so much it dissolves in your mouth and leaves you needing, not wanting, more?

All these overriding emotions were suddenly crashing throughout my body and it was tearing me apart. I've never felt so strongly about someone before. And what's killing me is that I'm pretty sure he doesn't feel about me that way at all. Pretty sure he just came along for a day off school. I've seen the way the girls act around him at school. It's sickening. And he- well it kinda seems like he enjoys the attention but whenever I'm with him it feels like his attention is completely devoted to me. He definitely knows how to make a girl feel liked.
