Part 88: promise me

Shawn:

God she drives me crazy.
But words can even begin to describe my love for her. I have to admit it though, that I had those thoughts as well. About our worlds just being too different, us as a person just being too different... it could never work. But we made it work till this day, and so we will continue.
The though of it not working out made me want to try and make it work even more.

Poetry is what happens when your mind stops working and for a moment, all you do is feel.
But no words can describe what I feel when I look at her.

When I look at her I feel free, I feel like I can do anything. She makes me smile in the most unrealistic ways. She makes my heart beat faster, even skipping beats at some points. God, the things she does to me.

"Fuck, I love you so much it frustrates me." She laughed. "How does it frustrate you to love me?"
"Because I can't describe it! It pisses me off!" It only made her laugh more, and her laughter and happiness made me even more happy. "Wanna go for a swim?" I twirled her hair around my finger as I cupped her cheeks. Her body still closely pressed up against mine. "You sure you want to? I mean it's daylight." I let my one hand gently caress her skin by her neck as I moved my way to her shoulder, slipping the strap of her top down her shoulder with a teasing smirk.

She looked down at her shoulder before smiling back up to me.
"You're a daring guy Mendes."
"You chose to fall in love with the bad guy. So this one's on you."
"Bad choices makes good stories." Before she could say anything else I grasped her in my arms and threw her over my shoulder, running inside to get out swimming clothes rather than skinny dipping.

"What made you change your mind?"
"Well considering last time Brian sneaked up on us in the bushes, who knows what will appear from beneath the water?" Her eyes grew big.
She always had a fear of deep water and never really wanted to go for a swim in the lake, but somehow I got to convince her to join.

"Don't fool around you know I believe in mythical creatures that can come from under the water." I laughed as she punched my shoulder. "Love you too." I crashed my lips to hers, smiling in to our kiss as she pulled my shirt over my head.

We're so complicated, but we make it look good.

We got dressed and she grabbed my hand, pulling me with her as we ran towards the lake. On the pier she stopped all of a sudden, but I was going at full speed, falling straight in as she stood there.
"Babe what the heck? I thought we'd jump together!"
"Nope, na-ah. Now that I think about it, the lognes monster can be here!" I rolled my eyes at her, seeing the smile on her face.

"I promised you that I'll fight with everything within me, till every bone in my body is broken, to protect you. So if Nessy wants a piece of this then he doesn't know what's coming for him." I made her laugh, and she took a few steps back to get a running start.
She jumped up and splashed right in front of me. She water droplets on her face as she emerges from under the water was the most beautiful piece of work I've ever seen.

She's a goddess.
An angel sent from above to light my way and life.

"What? Did something touch your foot?" Her eyes grew big. She talked herself to the point where she's scared of the water again. "No. You just look beautiful." She swam closer to me with her cheeks burning red.
She wrapped her arms around my neck as we drifted around in the water. I came to a small patch where I could stand on my toes, and I placed my hands down on her thighs as her legs wrapped around my torso. Slowly but surely moving closer to her butt.
"I can feel where you're going you know." I just smirked at her as she played with my hair at the nape of my neck.

It went silent, and all you could hear was the water and the wind blowing a breeze through the trees. Our eyes never leaving each other's and time stopping in this presence.

"Promise me you'll marry me some day." I smiked as she blurted out the question.
"I wouldn't have it any other way." She slowly leaned forward, pressing her lips to mine as we kissed deeply and passionately.
