Chapter 23:

I don't care what song you listen to when reading this, but make sure it's some sort of love song. Or just something that sounds beautiful. I couldn't choose one, so I'm letting you guys deiced for your selves.

Chapter 23: 

                                             ***Lexi's P.O.V.***

I inhaled, stepped on to the sand, and exhaled. I could see his figure, sitting just far enough so the waves didn't touch him. I continued to walk towards him as quietly as I could. He seemed to be deep in thought. When I was no more then a foot away, I stopped. I took a moment to remember him before I walked away from him forever. The way he sat, knees up held together by his hands, slouching lazily. The way the air smelled, like salt and sand. The way the moon was shinning down, and the way the waves reminded me of life. The same  thing, over and over. But yet each time different. Always changing and never failing to go on.

If I only I had the strength of the waves.

"Cody?" I said, almost so quietly I wasn't sure if he'd hear me.

But he did.

He turns around and stands up faster then I knew possible. "Lexi,"

I can't help a small smile when he says my name. "Cody, we need to talk." 

It's hard to tell in the dimness of the moon, but I think a little color drained from his face. "Okay." 

I stepped closer to him. "So, I talked to your dad."

"About what?" It seemed impossible for him to keep his eyes off of me.

"About me." I paused for a minute. "I told him I wanted to move out." 

"What?" 

"I'm going to live with Doug, Cody."

"I don't understand." 

"Cody, I have to leave."

"Why?"

"Because I can't keep wasting your time like this-"

"Wasting my time? You-"

"Cody I'm a danger to you and your family."

"No-"

"Yes, Cody. Kathrine is out to get me for some reason, and the best way to hurt me is to hurt those closest  to me. I don't want you hurt or in danger. The best way to keep that from happening is distancing myself from you."

"So you mean to say you're moving out because of that she-devil?"

"No, not exactly. I'm  breaking up with you Cody. And It's not just because of her.

"Then what is it?"  He steps closer to me.

I don't look at him now, though there is no more then three inches between us.  "You deserve better then this."

"Lexi-"

"You don't get it do you?" I look at him now, taking a step or two back.

"What? What am I suppose to get?" He raised his voice. Louder then he's ever used in front of me.

"That I'm not good enough for you!" I shout back stepping away from him. "You deserve so much better then me. Being with your girlfriend shouldn't endanger you and your entire family."
