Island Boy (Larry Love Story)

Out In The Ocean

Louis' POV

I sighed looking over my private ship into the ocean. My dad had been on my case about love again, it was really starting to get on my nerves. Yea I get that my dad's a millionaire but that shouldn't have anything to do with my happiness.I sighed getting a can of beer from the cooler I had on board, and took a seat on looking out into the ocean opening up my drink. "Its not fair.." I thought out loud as I sighed taking a sip of my drink. "Just because your dad told you to find love..and have a kid doesn't mean I have to..I like money too" I mumble to myself pouting a bit. I sighed once again closing my eyes. I usually come out to sea when I'm in a bad mood, my dad had taught me how to sail at a young age. That is back when he would actually spend time with me, and care about my happiness, coming out to the ocean; it always seems to cheer me up, hearing the waves, the wind making my shorts blow around against my legs, the smell of the ocean water. For some reason it just wasn't working today. 

I'm usually only out for a half an hour at most, I look down at my watch to check the time, two hours. I take another sip at my drink while plopping down on one of those beach chairs that I had aboard the ship. "Its not your decision." I say quickly chugging the rest of my drink. I closed my eyes resting my head against the back of my chair trying to relax, and calm down. I heard my phone going off, I grabbed my phone from my pocket looking at who it was and it was no surprise to see that it was my father. I rolled my eyes ending the call putting the phone back in my pocket. "Just leave me alone.." I mumble crossing my arms over my chest closing my eyes again. "I'm not ready to grow up..not ever." I couldn't help but smile slightly after I said that thinking of Peter Pan right away. I even chuckled a bit. I felt the ship get a bit more rocky then it usually was, so I opened my eyes looking around getting up from my seat going to the edge looking down at the water. My eyes widened seeing the ship was colliding into sharp rocks that were sticking out of the water. I quickly ran to the wheel trying to turn the ship but had no luck. I took out my phone sending out a text to my dad hoping he'd get it in time.

HELP SHIP GOING DOWN!!

I quickly pressed send and my legs got shaky as my feet were met with the cold water. My teeth started chattering as the water was rising up my body, I thought I was going to die. By the time the water came up to my stomach I tried to swim, I knew it was a long shot but it was the only thing I could think of. As I swam in the direction the ship came from it felt like the water was becoming colder. I felt my body becoming numb. This is it Louis..Your gonna die. I thought to myself. swung my feet up removing my shoes one by one trying to lighten my load make it easier for me to swim. I was becoming light headed, I didn't know what to do, I just tried to keep swimming but my breathing became heavier everything I could see was turning blue and blurry, suddenly everything had gone black.
