She watched him as he walked along the beach with his friends, she felt suddenly as though something had been taken from her. Her breath had been stolen from her lungs while she watched him past, but the more noticeably missing piece was her heart, she felt it leave almost as though when he waved to her he had taken it away from her. She didn't mind though, she found someone who she wanted to be around whether he had her heart or not. He noticed her smiling at him, she was beautiful, exactly his type.
He walked over to her to start a conversation "Hello there, darlin. How are you?"
She stuttered slightly, she was afraid to speak for fear that the butterflies in her stomach would leave, "I-I'm fine, you?" she decided to try and play cool.
"yes, you most certainly are fine." he said, shooting a million dollar smile at her.
she turned to her friend next to her and smiled, bugging out her eyes in an 'omg! I cannot believe this is happening!' sort of way without actually have to say it and make a fool out of herself.
"Are you busy later?" million dollar smile asked.
"Actually, hun, I happen to be so free its unbelievable." she showed him her most flirtatious smile.
"I'll pick you up right over there at seven?" he asked her.
"outstanding." she answered, batting her eyelashes, hoping it looked sexy and not like she had sand in her eyes.
"Wonderful." he picked up her hand and kissed it. "I'll see you at seven my lovely."
"Oh My Gods! I cannot believe it!" her and her best friend squealed after he was far enough away so they couldn't be heard.
She met him at seven just as planned and they had a wonderful time. This continued over a few more weeks, they saw each other more and more, and she was positive that he had won her heart without her knowing, her heart was no longer her it was his and he knew it.
This is exactly what i wanted this summer he thought to himself as the two of them cuddled next to the fire near the beach. one good chase, I'll let her down tomorrow and we will go our separate ways and everything will be perfect.I'll have gotten my chase for the summer and she will have had her summer fling. he smiled to himself as he thought about it.
"I just want to let you know that I have had the best summer of my life with you. I never want it to end." she kissed him and laid her head against his chest.
This will be slightly more difficult then I thought. he said to himself, he was getting attached. He could feel it, his heart was getting lighter and lighter when he was around her, and he knew he had hers. This one was going to be difficult to break, because part of his heart would go with it.
The next morning they met for breakfast and spent the day with each other. He knew the longer he waited the harder it would be, he would do it tonight. Before either of them got more attached. The evening came, which brought her best friend and his boys into the mix. He had planned to do it when they were alone, but it didn't look like it would work out that way, so as they were around yet another fire, their last fire together he was whispering in her ear.
"I'm leaving tomorrow." he said quietly.
"When will you be back?" she asked him
"I won't." he said resting his head on her shoulder.
"What do you mean?" that statement had caused her to sit up and face him.
"I'm am going away, and won't be back." he said, knowing he was sorry but not showing it, not wanting his friends to see his heart was breaking along with her.
"You're not coming back? Ever?" She asked again, he could see the tears gathering in her eyes.
"Right, I'm leaving and not coming back." he confirmed.
"I gave you my heart, and you took it know that you would be leaving with it. That doesnt bother you?"
"No, not really." he lied through the tears gathering in his eyes.
"Then go. Leave now. I don't want to be around you anymore." she hit his chest right near his heart.
As he walking away she called to him one more time. "What is your real name? I only called you by your nickname."
"My name?." he asked, trying to stall.
"Yes, your birth name." she said, getting more and more annoyed.
"Oh, honey, my name is Heart Break."
