The Spanish Bad Ass

Chapter Sixty nine: We're engaged?!

No, I have not gone into exile, I'm still very much existent, thank you for all the love and support, I don't have much to say, I haven't slept in three days, I'm drowning in quizzes, tests, and assignments, I'm heavily dehydrated, I feel like I could lose consciousness at any point in time but then this is a chapter and I'm hoping you love it despite how crappy it looks to my sleep-deprived eyes.♡

I woke up.

Which was weird because I didn't even remember falling asleep in the first place. After I had had my fill of the glorious sight before us, we had a little swim by we I meant only Ian and his stupid manipulating self because I told him that there was no way I was getting into the water, but then let me finish because even when I proved to him how hellbent I was on not getting into the water he still pulled out the blue and white polka-dotted one piece. I simply shook my head in disbelief and scoffed, turning my back on him.

After he realized I wasn't changing my mind, he shrugged, muttered that it was my loss, and dived into the water, when I noticed he was out of my view, I turned around slowly and moved closer to the edge to look down. I looked at the water below me for a while and found it really really funny when he didn't resurface from the water when he was meant to, I know it shouldn't have but it actually worried me a little because if I was being honest, I really didn't know my way back if something happened to him when he entered the water. So after yelling his name fruitlessly without getting any form of response, I grumbled, cursed the ground under me, cursed myself furiously, and put on the swimsuit he had laid out carefully for me.

I took a deep breath and looked over the edge of the cliff again, I sighed and quickly concluded that he didn't matter that, risking my life like this for someone who wasn't even worth shit to me wasn't quite something I planned on doing, I was trying to retrace my steps back so I'd know if I could find my way out to a road so I can ask anybody or any car I was miraculously able to see to take me back to civilization, but then I couldn't just leave Ian what if he was actually in danger?

I couldn't but then I just would.

I walked around hoping and praying for some kind of miracle, any kind of miracle at all when I noticed a steep stone staircase covered a bit by a thick leaf branch, I pushed it aside and looked down, it was dark so I went back and grabbed a flashlight from the car, I came back and put it on, I saw it went far down, I was confused about where it led to, I stepped back and thought for a while and it all suddenly clicked and I almost slapped myself in the face for not realizing it sooner enough, even if jumping off the cliff into to the water was the way down there obviously had to be a way back up.

I took the stairs quickly hoping to God that nothing happened to me while I was trying to find out if something happened to him. When I finally reached down the step I walked quickly towards the water, I bent and peeped over the edge and still saw nothing, I called out his name and still got no response, it was starting to concern me a little more because well how the hell could a human being possibly survive underwater for this long, it was starting to make me believe that something maybe did happen to him.

I straightened back up and rubbed my hand roughly over my face, I walked around quickly to calm myself so I didn't lose my damn mind because I was trying so hard right now so I didn't freak out. This right here was his fault, all his fault, if he had just let me be if he had just allowed me to stay home, if he had just taken my no as my no and left me alone, he wouldn't have possibly been dead right now and I wouldn't be stranded in this beautiful but still very much unknown place.
