the wind was blowing harshly against my skin, and the sea was brushing against my bare legs as I stand near the seashore. I blinked my tears away, brushing my hair behind my ears. though the night was slipping through my hands, I don't seem to care anymore. I was too numb to feel

I feel my body shook furiously as I broke down for the third time today, I fell down to my knees down to the sea like the empire I used to build when I was young on the sand. I laughed painfully through my tear-clouded eyes at the thought of us back then when we had no money

how I long for those days to come back. so careless, no worries what's so ever, so clueless for what's the world gonna hit us with. it was just him and me versus the world. he took everything for granted.

I reached down to my pocket, as the sea grazed my knees. I took out a polaroid of us, it was the day on our anniversary, on this exact beach. he was carrying me on his back, my hand was holding a pair of converse, while the other one was around his neck.

he gave in and carried me on his back only because I got pinched by a crab. he's carrying me as if I was a piece of feather. we were laughing, we were so happy. I laughed softly at the photograph of us, it still seems funny

I quickly turned my head around and shoved my polaroid back to my pocket when I heard footsteps from behind me, "no, no, no" I mumbled shaking my head, as I forced myself to get up and started walking backwards away from him

"y/n!" I heard his deep voice called, his footsteps getting louder every second, meaning that he was reaching closer to me. I kept running, reminding myself to not look back, "don't walk away, love!" he called once more

I felt a hand grabbed my arm and I got jerked to look back at him, "let go of me!" I screamed, pulling my hand away from his grip, which was pretty tight "y/n, please, baby look at me" I heard him begged

"get away from me, you asshole! let go of me" I growled and kept on pulling my hand away from his grip, my tears falling aggressively down to my cheek "please, just look at me" his voice came out as a whisper

I finally gave in and stare at anything but his eyes, "I'm so, so, sorry, y/n. I didn't mean to-" he started, "didn't mean to? didn't fucking mean to?! are you seriously saying this to me? I saw it with my own two damn eyes, corpse! you've got to be kidding me" I cut him off

"just listen to me! what you didn't see is that she forced herself on me! my god, y/n, you know I would never do anything like that to hurt you, please, y/n. just ask gene! he was there with me when you're getting our drinks. I can't do this without you, I swear if it makes you happy, I'll never hang out with her again. I'll delete her phone number in front of you" corpse explained

he fell down to his knees as he wrapped his arms around my waist, his eyes were red and brimming with tears, "please" he whimpered once again

"s-she did?" I questioned shakily

"yes! I would never in my life lie to you" he begged, hugging my waist closer putting his head on my stomach, "I believe you" I mumbled quietly

"what?" he asked unsurely looking up at me, his curls are blown by the cold wind, and the sky was getting cloudy, indicating a storm will be coming soon, "I believe you, corpse" I said once more with an assertive tone

I smiled softly when a grin came up to his face, "I don't think I can explain to you how happy I am right now" he said laughing through his tears, "I love you so much, y/n"

"I love you too, corpse, and come on! stand up, you look like a fool" I laughed bringing him up to hug me, "I'm sorry too, darling. I shouldn't have accused stuff like that to you"

"it's okay, I understand-"

"no, it's not! it's not okay, I should've let you explain in the first place. if I let you explain first we wouldn't be in this situation right now! I overreacted, corpse, I was so dramatic, I'm so sor-" he cuts my rambled off when he slammed his lips to mine, after a while we broke our kiss with a loving smile "stop cutting me off" he whined

"it's never your fault, baby, it's normal you reacted that way. I understand" he said, stroking my cheek tenderly, "and keep this in mind, I will never let you go without a fight, alright? there's never enough that can make me crash on a broken glass. let the storm rage! I'd die on the waves, but I will not rest while our love lies dead in the water" he declared gazing down at me with adoring eyes full of love and lust

I leaned in once more kissing his lips slowly but passionately

"I'm gonna take you out when I get some money. you'll have everything that you ever wanted, you will have the world. it's always gonna be us versus the world. I'll get you back to the promised land, y/n. I promise you"


I'd die on the waves
