hauntingly beautiful
Chapter 32
Hayden's Point of View
The sweet vanilla ice cream that rolled on the tip of my tongue was now starting to taste bitter.
Why wasn't Hunter looking at me when he asked that question?
He didn't find someone to replace me, did he?
"No, actually. I'm not." I truthfully said, my voice sounded cold and hoarse. "Are you?"
Hunter looked at me with shock, yet I could sense that he was pleased through the sparkly glint in his tropical blue eyes.
Oh, how I missed those bright blue orbs.
"I'm not, either." he said, trying to hide back his excitement.
My stomach began to feel jittery, as I poked the slush of melted ice cream in my cup.
"Hah, I guess that's-"
Before I got to finish, Hunter was already up, and pulling on my arm.
He dragged out of the ice cream parlor, lacing his fingers through mine.
I blushed, as our warm skin connected.
"Hunter, where are you taking me?" I panted, as Hunter began to run full speed.
It was hard for me to keep up, since he was an athelete.
He didn't reply to me, but I got my answer when my feet started to sink into pools of sand.
We kicked the cold sand behind us, as Hunter pulled us further down the beach.
Was he going to throw me-
Suddenly, I felt freezing cold water rising above my knees, soaking my dress completely.
"H-Hunter!" I said, jaw clencing up and down from my endless shivering.
He laughed, as he inched closer to me.
In the icy water, he wrapped his arms around my waist, taking me by surprise.
His warm body heat warmed me up, and soon, the cold water had no effect on me.
"Are you insane?" I asked, out faces nearly centimeters apart.
It kind of reminded me of the first time we kissed.
I was just as nervous as I was now, and our faces were so close, it was intimidating.
"God, I missed you so much." he whispered, brushing my dampened hair away from my face.
My back arched from his touch, as a small smirk appeared across his lips.
The moon lit up his features, making his skin look ivory pale, and his eyes look so intense.
I was speechless.
I wanted to tell him how much he meant to me, but words couldn't describe it.
"A year without kissing you... I can't take it any longer." he muttered.
I wanted him as much as he wanted me, even more.
I wanted to feel the sensation of his lips on mine, morphing in sync.
And that's exactly what I felt when he pressed his soft lips upon mine.
His lips were sweet from the ice cream we just devoured, but still minty from his freshly brushed teeth.
I leaned my body further into his, wrapping my arms around his neck, while he had his firmly on my waist.
I felt a tingling sensation on our lips.
I knew it wasn't sparks; it was so much more than that.
We pulled away, as I felt my lip quiver.
"You do realize that we're both going to be sick after this?" he chuckled, pressing his forehead against mine.
I laughed softly, closing my eyes, taking in the moment. "I know, but I really don't care."
"I love you, Hayden." he suddenly said.
My body went numb from excitement, as my heart pounded against my chest.
There was only one thing left for me to say.
"I love you too, Hunter."
The End.
I might be starting a new story sometime next week.
There won't be a sequel to this, just because I feel as if there's nothing more to write about.
Hope you liked it :) Thanks my lovely followers for reading! ♥
