Gone

Chapter 22 - The Perfect Plan

FLASHBACK: 

 The only sound was the pouring water, everything else was quiet. I started crying, I wasn't capable of holding back more tears. I've had enough. 

"He was just trying to protect you" My mind tried to rationalize and calm me down.

My best friend only became friends with me just because someone told him to. Not because of my personality, the way I eat or because of some silly little nervous tic.

Did he even liked me at least, or was he just playing a role?

I snapped out of my thoughts and began to properly wash myself.

I got out, dressed a green hoodie, some black leggings, a pair of sneakers and put earphones. I selected a music and got out.

CURRENTLY:

I decided to go to the beach. The beach always seemed to calm me down, therefore it was a good place to be.

I was just a crosswalk from the beach, I could already see the sand and the ocean. Looked both ways and crossed. Finally. I was in the beach. I got closer to the shore and found a good spot to seat. Under a tree.

I arrived just at the perfect time to see the sunset. Although the weather threatened to rain, the sunset wasn't any less beautiful. A darker shade of purple and pink than usual and stars were starting to come out from their hiding place.

"What are you going to do?" My mind asked. Good question what am I going to do? I don't want to see Nick. "But you miss him.. and technally, he's still your boyfriend".

I miss him but after what he did, I just can't bare to see him. This may sound weird but, I was finally moving on, I didn't want him to suddenly show up and ruin it all.

"And Damien? You know he is not innocent." 

Damien. Well I'm disappointed with him and hurted.

He knew and did nothing about it. That's what is hurting me the most. He had many chances to tell me.

Why didn't he? It wasn't lack of chances.

 The night had settle in. The sea was calm, the surfers had already left, the beach was empty. I was alone. Usually I kind of like being quiet and alone, but tonight I need someone to hold me and I didn't have anyone this time. 

I decided to go take a swim. I got undress and got inside the water, it was not very cold. It made sting the fresh wounds, but I know it would heal them a lot quicker.  I dove in, feeling the coldness of the sea water in my face, it was actually numbing the feeling of sadness away. At that moment I almost thought I was invincible for a second. 

" You still have to think about the situation" . My brain remembered me.

I sort of "woke up from a trance" and thought about some options. I don't enjoy being mad at someone. "They deserve it". 

Then, a phrase came to my mind. "If you can't beat them, join them". 

It was the perfect plan. I could be trained and become a spy. I could join them. That way I wouldn't be a risk. I could protect myself. They wouldn't need to be worried about me anymore. Damien could stop tolerating me.

I am a genius.

" But what about your pride? Are you really going to ask Damien or somebody else to train you? What makes you think that they are gonna train you?" My mind mocked me,I actually didn't thought very well about that, but it was worth the shot. 

I got out the water and ran to the tree I was previously under. I waited a couple minutes until I was dry. I carefully dressed myself. I put the earphones on my ears again and started walking excitedly towards the street.

Falling on the sand from pure distraction, I got myself up again and started walking again, this time a little bit more carefully.

I didn't realized I had went so far into the beach, until I was getting tired of walking.

Unexpectedly, I heard someone walking behind me. The foot steps were heavy, so it must be a guy. I turned back to see the person, but nothing. There wasn't a single soul on that beach and I tried to look  to the trees but found no one. 

I started walking faster. I was starting to get scared.

"That's why you are a risk. You can't even go take a walk in the beach without someone following you."

I finally reach the crosswalk, I looked both sides of the road. No car. I looked back again and saw no one. I instictively crossed the road.

Suddenly, I saw lights and  heard squealing tires along with a horn. I felt something touching me and heard something breaking.

I fell to the ground unable to move,having a bad time to breathe and coughing up blood. I entered in shock from the sudden sharp pain I was feeling. Then I saw everything turning black.

"What the bloody hell is happening?Why me?"
