The Beach House // #FiveYearsSinceCollabContest

Chapter 2

Creed

One night with her wasn't enough that night at the beach house. But I let her go and I have to be ok with that.

My stomach was in knots I wasn't sure how I was going to feel seeing her. Will will even look like her, has she changed drastically is she still the easy-going playful sexy girl I remember? Guess I will see.

Kyla

I get the scent of him before I see him. Creed has a specific scent, woodsy, with a citrus smell with a hint of honey and pine. He walks out and I felt my heart leap and my stomach do a somersault.

His wicked cool smiles arched up when he saw me.

"Hey, Kyla."

I wanted to cry, hearing his voice after all these years. I've missed him much.
I turn away and dip under the water to erases me tears I felt hands come around my waist and I am pulled against his rock hard muscular body.

"Are you crying?" He spoke softly.

I shook my head still facing away from him. Tears pour out of me even as I try to hold them back. He turns me around.

"I think we need to talk." His eyes lock on mine, I felt him looking into my soul. Reading my thoughts, my feelings.

His thumb cast on my check and lightly brushed my tears away.

"Why do we need to talk?" I try and act as if I haven't been waiting five years for this.

He pulls me into his arms. His lips move up my neck dancing along my skin driving me wild. This is what I have missed. Him.

"God, I've missed you, Kyla." His fingers brush over the drawstring of my bikini bottoms. I shudder from his touch.

"I've missed you too." I sigh breathlessly as his lips scan cover my neck and journey over to the other side.

"I think it's time we explore this. That is if that's what you want." His eyes drown in mine his hands travel down to my ass. I love the feel of his hands all over me. He caressed my perky ass making it hard to think.

"It's all I have ever wanted." Tears slip away. He places his hands on my face.

"Do you forgive me for walking away?" He says the words I have wanted to say to him for years.

"Yes." I say.

*

I may have been young and naive five years ago. But I still knew he was the one. It just took time apart to bring us back together. I do thank him for allowing me to spread my wings, but it has always been him whos always been on my heart and mind.

Be true to what you feel and never give up on someone. If they are meant to be they will be. Do I regret leaving as I did five years ago and missing out on the unknown with Creed? No. Cause in that time I grew into myself and I know who I am.

The years moulded me into the person who can know fully be open and not be scared to share my feelings.

He's grown to and he's the man he is too have the years apart. I only see him and that is what I am looking forward to. The one that got away has returned and we are not right where we are meant to be.
