Chapter 28
I watched as Harry held the last tennis ball in his hand.
He adjusted his aim, as the ball released from his palms,
shooting swiftly in a cup.
"We have a winner!" the teenage boy announced.
"Which one do you want?" Harry asked lowly, with his
low breath trickling on my ear.
Shivers sent down my spine, as I pointed to the big, lime green
frog with wide cartoon eyes.
The teenage boy handed me the stuffed toy, as I clutched it in my
hands securely.
"Thanks." Harry nodded to the boy, as we walked
off.
It was almost mid night now, and the fireworks would start to
explode by now.
Harry tugged my arm, as he guided me out of the boardwalk.
We headed to the beach, the exact same spot where we first
met.
"H-Harry? Why are we here? It's freezing." I
shuddered, holding on to my new plushed frog for warmth.
"I know, but it's really nice here." Harry smiled,
staring out at the dark waves.
I bit my lip, as we took a seat on the cool sand.
"Thanks for the frog, by the way." I blushed, tucking
some hair behind my ears.
Harry grinned. "Why did you pick the frog?"
I smiled to myself, as I ruffled the head of the frog.
"It reminds me of you." I admitted.
Harry's face went blank, as he shook his head. "You mean
that toy frog reminds you of me?"
I laughed, throwing my head back at the wind.
"I didn't mean it like that." I paused.
"It's just that its... cute."
Harry went silent, as I turned my face away.
My face was burning up, as I hid behind my mass amount of
hair.
Why did I just say that? Was I going insane?
I suddenly felt a pair of warm fingers come in contact with my
cheek, turning it to face Harry's gentle face.
"I think you're really cute, too." he said with all
seriousness.
My eyes widened, as my heart began to leap away from my
chest.
"But." he sighed. "I don't want to get
attached to you."
His hands dropped away from my face, as I swallowed the gulp that
was forming in my throat.
"W-what?" I stuttered.
How stupid was I? Just admitting to Harry that he was cute, and
ultimately getting rejected on.
Harry removed his sea green eyes from mine, and stared out at the
ocean waves.
"I really like you, Colby." he whispered.
I stared up at him with surprise, but I didn't say
anything.
"I've been liking you, actually. I've liked you ever
since I saw you walking on the shore earlier this summer. There
was just something about you that I really found
interesting."
I dug my fingernails in my palms to prevent myself from
crying.
If he was telling me all of this, then why didn't he want to
get attached to me?
"Do you remember how I told you I needed to tell you
something earlier tonight?" Harry asked.
I bit my lip, and nodded.
"Well, that was one of them. There's something
else." Harry sadly smiled.
I frowned. "Tell me."
Harry sucked in a deep breath, before opening his mouth to
speak.
"I'm moving."
My heart dropped to my gut.
I knew immediately that those two words were going to haunt me
for eternity.
Harry was moving, leaving me behind.
"You're moving?" I breathed. "I've barely
been here for a few months and you're already
leaving?"
The tears flowed down my cheeks by now.
How pathetic was I? So weak and vulnerable.
Harry wiped a tear from my cheek, as he gave me a small
smile.
"I'm sorry, Colby. I would stay, if I could. But, my dad
got a new job with a great pay... in Florida."
I shut my eyes tightly, pinching myself to wake up from his
horrible nightmare.
"F-Florida? That's so far away." I quivered.
"That's why I didn't want to get too close to you. I
didn't want to get attached, because I knew I would get my
heartbroken. But, I couldn't resists, Colby. You're
just... everything I've ever wanted in a girl."
(Too long, need to continue on next chapter.) :)
