I stare as the dark ocean waves crash against the ground. Rising in speed and momentum, gaining strength, heading towards land as if it was to break through it, only to hit the ground and evaporate into absolute nothingness.
I scoff in contempt, a half finished cigarette in my mouth.
I take hold of it between my pointer and middle finger, flicking the ash into the nearly black water and lean back on my hands, staring up at the vast night sky.
My feet dig into the cold, cold sand.
I take another drag of the cigarette, inhaling it.
Theres nothing for me here.
I exhale slowly, staring at the smoke escaping my cold lips.
The sound of somebody walking towards me catches my attention, far before the bright shining flashlight of their phone does.
I watch out the corner of my eye as he struggles to walk, the sand considerably slowing his pace.
He stands beside me, watching the waves.
"Hi"
I look up at him.
"Hello"
"What are you doing out here?"
I take my cigarette and lift it, crushing it against the sand. "Nothing"
"Why dont you join us?"
My eyes drift unseeingly to the water, yet to have stilled. Just like my mind.
"In a moment" I mumble.
"..Okay"
The footsteps reside.
I take out another cigarette, lighting it and discarding the lighter away somewhere in the sand.
Shakily I stand up.
I take a few steps forward, holding back a wince as the ice-cold water reaches my ankles.
My body carries me forward, and I stand there, freezing water up to my stomach.
The dull sound of a splash. Water surrounding me, pricking and numbing my skin as my body falls, the cold dark being the only thing i can sense as I sink.
I always sink.
(in case anybody is confused yeah it was david who walked up to him)
