Who You Are

♡ adventure? ♡

An adventure?  Where could we possibly be going on an adventure?  As far as I know, anything around here is city besides some parks. But then again Harry has lived here way longer than I have and could know secret spots.

‘’ Adventure? ‘’ I ask what he ment by ‘adventure ‘

‘’ Are you ready for adventure? ‘’ He asked again as I rolled my eyes at his ignorance. Only causing him to smirk at me.

‘’ I guess I have no choice, you are already driving ‘’

‘’ Oh contraire, I could be on my way to your house right now and you wouldn’t even know it  ‘’

‘’ Just shut up and go on with this ‘adventure’ before I hit you upside the head ‘’

‘’ My pleasure, Mari. ‘’ He said in a deep, raspy voice. ‘’ By the way, I hope you like lunch on a cliff with an ocean view ‘’ CLIFF?! This man has to be planning my murder!

20 minutes in the car had passed before Harry stopped at a rest stop. Why were we at a rest stop? I don’t know. I’ve only known Harry for a day but he’s already full of surprises. Harry unlocked the door stepping out and opening his trunk. It opened to reveal a festival blanket and a jacket.

‘’ Come on, it can get chilly with the ocean’s wind blowing to us ‘’ I didn’t ask why he had a jacket and blanket in his trunk, but what I did want to know is why we were at a rest stop with a meal.

‘’ Harry? ‘’ I ask as he mumbles ‘yeah?’

‘’ Why are we at a rest stop? I thought we were going on a cliff? ‘’

‘’ You’ll see in a little bit, you will see in a little bit ‘’

We had been climbing a steep, yet small cliff for at least 10 minutes. It was hard climbing it with pizza boxes, so Harry and I would take turns with the pizza boxes. This was tiring, before we get to where ever the hell Harry is taking me, our pizza is going to be cold.

Before I could tell Harry I needed to take a break, we reached the peak of the cliff. Oh my amazing views. We could see the ocean perfectly from where we stood. I could feel Harry’s eyes and smile on me as he knows he has impressed me. This was like an adrenaline rush! It was awesome. I wonder how Harry found this place. I mean, you could not see it from the ocean, you just couldn’t. The trees would block it, though it didn’t block us from seeing the view.

‘’ Harry how did you ever find this place? ‘’

‘’ Well – ‘’ He said before taking a deep breath and started speaking again. ‘’ I actually don’t want to talk about it, maybe when we are closer in a friendship… I’m not ready- ‘’

‘’ No Harry, It’s alright. I totally understand ‘’ I tell him as I rub his back trying to calm him. Whatever it was, it was a hard subject for him to talk about. Harry had set the blanket on the ground before he sat on it. ‘’ Are you going to sit and eat? ‘’ He asked me with a stern voice as I burned my eyes into his.

‘’ What? Uh, yeah. ‘’ I said as I took a seat next to Harry. I took a piece of pizza noticing he got my mushrooms that I had asked for. ‘’ Thank you for getting mushrooms ‘’ He nodded in response since he had a mouth full of food. This was amazing; I had never seen such a beautiful view. I know that when I am missing home I’ll come here, it was just beautiful.

After we were done eating, Harry and I just stared at the view for at least a half hour in silence. We watched the wave’s crash and go onto the sand as kids were laughing, screaming and building sand castles with their parents. I wish I had parents like that when I was a kid; all my parents cared about was work, never about hanging out with their kids.
