757 Words
We decided to check in first. Lyn chose a master bedroom for us. As for the gentlemen's, a regular room with 2 beds.
“Lyn, why do you picked seperated rooms? I want to be with my boyfriend. Please?” Yvonne pleaded.
“That's the exact reason why I got two. This is a friendship bonding not a honeymoon for you two! You're not even married.” Lyn said teasingly.
“Hey! We're almost getting there.” Yvonne blushed.
“You're sick.”
“And beautiful.” Yvonne added.
“Blah blah, let's just go to our room and set everything up first. Then let's wear our swimsuits! Im so excited.” Lyn literally ran.
Arriving to our room, it's quite shocking. It is huge and smells expensive. No wonder I didn't know this place existed.
They immediately took their clothes off and wore the swimsuits. Yes, we're all girls. But aren't they shy? Maybe because they don't have insecurities in their body?
I didn't change my clothes here instead I go the shower. But I don't think I have the confidence to wear this two piece alone so I wore it under my sweatpants.
“Does it look good on me?” Lyn asked.
“Every thing looks good on you because of your skin. It's gorgeous indeed.” Angela answered.
“It's because we are already beautiful.” Yvonne added. Then they all laugh.
Yvonne is a pretty good friend. She is kind and reliable. But not to me.
“Oh, the boys are coming, let's get up.” I unconsciously blurted out when I felt their presence.
“Are you a psychic or something? I don't hear anything.” Their faces are showing confusions.
“Its pretty late so I think they are already here.” I lied.
I really felt their presence through the air.
If I tell them about it, they'll freak out.
A minute later, the boys did come.
Beck has a guitar on his Beck while Aron is carrying a wooden beat box.
“Girls are you ready??” Aron asked excitedly.
They didn't even answer him because they already ran to the beach.
We manage to made a small bonfire out of this windy place. We fail almost a hundred times.
We sat together in circle with the fire keeping is warm. Beck began to strum his guitar and we all started to sing.
This is genuine happiness. I almost forgot what this feels like. Im glad I have friends to that made me remember this kind of feeling.
After a few moments, they decided to swim. I refused because it is so damn cold and windy.
Beck also stayed. Same reason as mine.
“How are you, Stella? I feel like we've never talk for so long.” Beck asked.
He's right. It's because i've been avoiding to meet him. And it's because I don't want another stress.
“Well, Im good. Just that im busy these days. How about you?” I asked back.
“Well, im alright. It's getting hard these days but im all good. Im a man.” He said it while flexing his muscles.
“But a man also cry and seek help.” I look him in the eyes. I know he's not really okay. He can't hide it. He's not very good at that.
“I guess im not a man.” We laugh in sync.
“Oh wait, let me just grab a drink. Wait there.” He excused his self.
I was watching my friends on the playing on the water when someone touch my shoulder.
It was Yvonne.
“Hey, Stella. I wanted to say sorry to all the bad things I did to you. I want us to be friends. I hope you forgive me.” Yvonne apologized.
She apologized? Is she already drunk?
“It's okay, it's not that bad.” Is this real?
“You forgive me? Thankyou!” She hugged me again.
She don't even let me talk.
“Since we're friends now, Can you give me your company? I just need someone to be with me because it's scary. And every one is busy with their own lives.” She explained.
So that's why.
“Where to?” I asked.
“There's a shop from there, it's just 10 minutes from here. So let's go?” She point her fingers on my side. Where going there? It's a forest. There's no way there's actually a shop there.
What is she planning to do?
