My Boyfriend's Best Friend

Chapter 13

I was dragged.

Literally dragged.

Dragged by Darren.

Of course, who else but that monsterous devil.

Got mad at me for dying Patricia's hair green, perhaps?

I was being dragged but of course I can see where we're going--

Wait, outside??

He dragged me outside the hotel, and towards the shoreline of the sea.

There are less people compared to the mornings because the sun had already set.

The sky is a fusion of dark gray and violet, the bright moon shimmering like a bright diamond in the sky.

Just reminded me of a song of Rihanna, shine like a bright diamond....

Okay, that's not the point, I'm getting lost in my train of thoughts again. ^_^

The moon's reflection is painted on the sea and the sound of the waves crashing down is truly peaceful.

But why did he take me here?

He gripped my wrist harder making me flinch.

"Darren... you're gripping my wrist too tight.." I muttered softly.

"Oh. I'm sorry." He says, looking away and letting go of my wrist.

Was he blushing?

I really can't tell, since it's too dark for me to see his face.

And then the strangest thing happened--

He laughed.

He laughed so hard.

It's creepy.

"A-Are you okay...?" I asked, trying to calm him down as he was clutching his stomach while stomping on the sand.

"You're hilarious!" He cried out.

"I... am?" I said, pointing at myself in confusion.

"Patricia... Hair...." He chortled.

I laughed at his smiling face.

I couldn't believe what I'm seeing.

Darren is laughing at Patricia.

I joined in the laughter as I remembered the look on Patricia's face.

"Green.... You're right! It's just too funny to be ignored." I added.

"You're hilarious, Reed." He said, finally calming down.

Both of us fell on our butts on the white sand.

"Hmmm, yeah." I whispered under my breath.

"I don't wanna go home." Darren softly said, but loud enough for me to hear.

His quick remark made me turn to look at him as his face spoke of so much sadness.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

It took a while for him to answer and he just merely stared at the moon, the sea, towards the front direction.

"Look at the view. It's just amazing. I wouldn't grow tired of just merely staring at it." He replied.

His eyes glistened, the way the moon shone that night.

There was something about him that I really liked at that moment...

I just couldn't pinpoint what.

"Yeah.." I said in agreement.

I took a deep breath as well, sitting side by side on the sand with Darren.
