A/N: SO SORRY FOR THE LONG WAIT! I hope this chapter makes up for it and im already writing the next :) I wanted to say thank you so much for your constant support, I love you guys!
EZRA'S POV
I kept swimming around trying not to stare at Aria, though that was all I really wanted to do. She was gorgeous. I had never been so in awe with a women before and to be honest it kind of scared me.
I had only known her for one day and I was already going out of my mind because of not being able to hold her and I just had six days left. I didn't know what I was feeling, I didn't know what was happening to me, but I didn't want to leave her.
I sat on one of the stools at the pool bar and asked for a 'piña colada', recommendation from Hardy, that was shouting to me from a jacuzzi behind me. The barman handed me the drink a few minutes later and I swam to where they were being extra careful not to drop it inside the water.
Finally I reached the jacuzzi and slid in next to Hanna that had her eyes closed and her arms spread outwards to catch some sun.
"What's up with you and Aria?" she said still not opening her eyes.
"Nothing's up with me and her" I replied taking a sip of the drink. Refreshing.
"But he wants to" said Toby from across the seat, that was holding Spencer around her waist.
"Says the one that didn't like Spencer and is now drooling all over her" I said smirking taking another sip.
"At least I made a move" he said kissing her cheek. Ouch, I thought.
"Common' dude we all something is there" said Hardy motioning to the air. "Just go talk to her, go for a walk, do something!"
"But I'm not so straight forward like you guys, I don't know, maybe she doesn't even like me" I said splashing some water on my face to cool up a bit.
"She does" said Hanna. "And Ezra sweetie, its not like you can take it calmly, we are not going to be here forever so why not have fun?" she said as she got up and faced Hardy, Caleb and Emily. "Fancy another drink?" she asked.
The three of them nodded and made their way to the bar, leaving me with Toby and Spencer that were too busy making out too even notice I was still there. I sighed finishing my drink and made my way to where Aria was before I could change my mind. I swam to her side of the pool and crawled out standing in front of her.
I was about to talk when she said. "You're blocking my sun airplane boy" I chuckled before taking a step to the right. "What's up?" she asked.
I took a deep breath calming myself down. I had always, without any exception, been nervous when I had to ask a girl out.
"Would you like to go on a walk with me down the beach?" I said sitting down on my sunbed next to hers.
"I'm good here" she said smirking.
"Oh common' you can't just lay here all day, you have been here half an hour and you're already burnt" I said chuckling, "Take a break"
"Fine" she huffed sitting up. "Can you please put some more sunscreen on my back?" she handed me the bottle and I just nodded not being able to say anything.
I sprayed some on my hands and carefully spread it all over her back. Her skin was soft and hot from the sun. I moved my hands up to her shoulders and slowly back down all of her back. When it was all spread enough, I gave her back the bottle and stood up awkwardly. Her skin had felt so good against my hands, as if they belonged there. It had felt so excitingly good, the moment my hands had met her skin, I felt this sparks through us making everything blurry.
"Lets go" she said making come back from my thoughts.
We walked down the steps and a couple of minutes later we reached the beach. There was another bar and there were people laying in sunbeds near the shore. We walked down it, our feet getting slightly wet with each crashing wave, without knowing where we were heading. We were just walking, one step at a time.
"So airplane boy, what else apart from being nerdy shall I know about you?"
"I'm Ezra, not airplane boy, and just so you know I am not so nerdy" I said chuckling. "As about me, I just graduated with an English degree, I love a good classic and I spend most of my time writing."
"You write?" she asked clearly surprised. I nodded. "What about?"
"Well I've written short stories and a love novel but I guess I wrote it for myself, no one's ever read it."
"Would you let me?"
"You really want to?" I asked.
"Yup" she said. "I would love to, I mean you obviously need me to give you constructive criticism and tell you how horribly bad it is" she smiled.
"You'll be surprised" was all I said. I looked back realizing we were already pretty far away. "Turn around?" I asked to which she nodded as we started to walk back.
"So I guess this is you're graduation trip?" she asked.
"It's more theirs than mine, I didn't want to come, but to be honest now that im here I don't really want to leave, I guess something changed my mind," I said to much of a coward to tell her that she made the trip special.
"What changed?" she asked looking at me curiously.
"All the beautiful details" I replied smiling to myself. Very beautiful indeed. "But well, lets stop talking about me, what about you girl?"
"Well plain and simple here. I graduated this year too with a degree in journalism, I was hoping to work at the New York Post or The Times but I didn't get the stop at the NYP so why would the times want me?" she said rambling.
"Because you're amazing, beautiful and im guessing really talented too" I said totally honest. I blush crept onto her cheeks.
"Well thanks but I guess people don't think the same back there in New York , by the way where are you guys from?"
"Boston" I said as I splashed some water on her with my feet. She gave me a smirk and I smiled back.
"And you drove all the way to New York?"
"I had a business meeting so I had to come anyway" I said.
"Wow Mr. Important are you now?" she a¡said teasingly.
"Obviously duh" I said chuckling. "Are you doubting my superiority at everything madame?" I said with a British accent making us both laugh.
"So what if I am?" she said stopping and getting closer to me.
Our chest were centimeters away. I moved closer wrapping my arms around her waist, to my surprise she didn't move back. My heart was pounding so hard I was sure she could hear it. The feeling of our skin together was magical. Everything became blurry, as I leaned down getting closer to her lips.
I tilted my head to the side, not kissing her as I whispered in her ear. "Then you'll lose" I looked back at her that was smirking. Shouldn't it be me smirking? I took a step back but at the same time she took one forward.
"Are you sure?" she asked. I nodded. What was happening? I took another step back and I could already feel the waves crashing against my feet. She stood on her tip toes putting both of he hand against my chest sending me shivers. "Don't be" she whispered.
The next thing I knew, my whole body was inside the water after she pushed me in. she was already running back towards our hotel laughing. I got out and started running after her catching her in a few seconds as I was much quicker.
I grabbed her waist trying to stop her but we both ended on the sand, me on top of her. The smiles on our faces faded when our gazes locked and everything started to fill up with the unbearable sexual tension.
Neither of us made a move, my stare going from her eyes to her lips and back to her eyes. She raised her head bringing us closer. I brought one of my hand up from her waist to caress her cheek.
"You are what changed my trip" I whispered.
And finally, after the long wait, our lips met softly. The sparks running through were something I had never felt before, even more than when our hands touched or when I spread the sunscreen on her back.
At first we were cautious, investigating what this feeling was as our lips moved in perfect sync. A few seconds later we relaxed into the kiss. Lips were parted and our tongues started to dance rhythmically with each other,
It seemed like ages, but a few minutes later we pulled back. I watched her face looking for some kind of reaction. After a few seconds, she blushed and brought her hand up to caress my cheek just as I had done earlier.
I smile crept onto her face and her eyes lit up. She was so beautiful when she was happy. It made me want to make her happy everyday for the rest of my life.
I leaned down and gave her a quick kiss on the nose and she giggle. God I loved that. I got up and offered her my hand. She took it and when she stood up we were really close again.
This time without doubting even a second, I wrapped my arm around her waist pulling her closer. I ached for her lips on my again, for that addictive spark. She stood on her tip toes, as I was much taller than her and our lips met again. I sighed into the kiss. Our lips molded together perfectly. The kiss itself was perfect.
When we pulled away I got hold of her hand and we started to walk back. As I looked around silently, with a huge smile on my face, I remembered we only had six days left.
