Summer Love
Chapter 28
Shay's P.O.V.
I parked my car in the beach lot and stepped out into the cool, breezy air. I slammed my car door and folded my arms over my chest. I stumbled to the beach with my chin tucked down. The wind was blowing the hair around my face.
I saw Dustin standing a little ways off down the beach and I paused. I sucked in a a breath of air and kept on trudging through the sand until I was a few feet behind Dustin. He was facing the ocean, looking out into the distance. I came up beside him, looking at the darkening sky.
"Oh, uh, hey." Dustin said.
"Hi." I replied.
We stared at eachother for a moment, until I looked away. The awkwardness of the situation was practically swallowing us entirely.
"Um, Dustin I-" I started, trying to break the silence, but Dustin cut me off.
"Okay Shay Listen. I wanted to talk to you becuase I know things have been different lately. We ended the wrong way. Actually, I don't know what happened. We argued and you were gone. I can't even tell you how much I missed you. I have been lost without you, as cheesy as that sounds. I've been so lonely without you, especially since my friends have gone home."
"Wait...You're friends went home? Like back to Boston?" I questioned.
"Yeah, like a couple of days ago."
"So Lucy is gone too?" I asked again.
"Uh huh."
That little b*tch. She was all the way back in Boston Massachusettes and she was still threatening me. I was such a coward.
"So uh, Shay all I am saying is that I'm sorry. I know Lucy is kind of, well, over-bearing. And I was so wrong to hurt you like I did. But I promise you, I did nothing with her and she means absolutely nothing to me." Dusitn looked me in the eyes, "I know this probably doesn't mean much, but I asked her to leave."
"You did?" I asked, almost sounding shocked.
"Yeah, I felt like she was coming in between us. Well, in fact, she was. So I guess I am trying to say how sorry I am. I love you Shay. You are the only one I love, and the only one I will forever. Can you forgive me?" He asked, taking my hand.
Tears filled my eyes, but the good kind. They were happy tears.
"Of course I can, Dustin. And I am so sorry too." I answered and I squeezed his hand. He moved closer to me and wrapped me up in a bear hug. I giggled as he picked me up gently off the ground. He hugged me until we felt raindrops. In a matter of seconds the sky opened up on us. My gaze met Dustin, but we didn't run for cover. Instead, Dustin took his hands and wiped my stringy wet hair from my face as he leaned in.
and our lips met.
