I stood at the edge of the sandy shore. The light of the setting sun made the ocean water glisten. My hair gently blew with the breeze. I stared off into the distance.
I wish this summer would last forever. This view is beautiful.
I turned to walk back to the hotel when I saw him. His golden hair shined in the low light. His emerald green made his face light up.
Who is he? I haven't seen him here before.
My family and I come here ever summer to stay at a beach house on a private beach. I always see the same people here and a occasional new person.
That's probably it. He must be new here.
"Hello?" I called out.
The boy didn't seem to hear me. I slowly approached him.
"Hello?" I called out again.
"The view is nice." he stated, staring off into the distance.
"Yeah. It is." I replied.
He isn't looking at me. The beautiful view must really be captivating him.
"I'm Ayaka Monoko. It is nice to meet you." I said, trying to start a conversation.
"Nice to meet you, Aya-chan." he replied.
He called me Aya-chan. He must be Japanese.
"So, when did you get here?" I asked.
"I've been here for a long time."
"I haven't seen you around."
"I usually only go out around sun set to admire the view."
He suddenly pulled me into his arms and spun me around as a waved crashed onto the shore.
"Your dress almost got wet." he said as put me down.
"Th-Thank you." I replied, my voice cracking slightly. "Oh."
I stared at him as salty sea water dripped from his soaked clothes.
"I'll be fine. Don't worry." he smiled.
We both sat down on the sandy shore and watched day turn into night. The stars peered out in the night sky and lite up the darkness.
"It's beautiful." I stated, stating into the the distance.
"How long will you be here?" he suddenly asked.
"This is my last night here." I replied, staring down at the ground.
"Then..."
He cupped my chin into his hand and pulled my face closer to his.
Our lips our about to-
"Ayaka!"
"Huh?"
I slowly picked up my head.
"Class is about to start! You fell asleep again!"
"Sorry." I yawned.
"What am I going to do with you, Aya?"
"I won't fall asleep anymore. I promise, Rei-chan."
"You are such a liar." murmured Rei as she took her seat.
