Relaxation, beaches, the sound of the waves crashing against the sand. That is what we wanted that weekend in June. Just a little time to breathe a little time away from our judgmental parents. What we didn't want was accidents, accidents that would change our lives completely.
"Lets get away Blair and enjoy ourselves, we deserve this, we deserve a little time to breathe don't ya think" His blue eyes shinning so bright as we look out at the waves in front of us. "We do we definitely need this" I rest my head on his shoulder as i sink deeper into the blanket. Here we are the moment we both have been waiting for since the previous week. We hit hard times, my mother does not want me hanging out with the troublesome Garrets across the street. She thinks I could do so much better than a high school dropout but what she doesn't know is that we are in love and I have tried to make that pretty clear. Dad died 4 years ago and Tye was all I had left to really live for, he was my everything and that would never change. On this boat, at this moment, in the middle of the deep blue ocean was our chance to just be us, was our chance to love. I felt his chest rise and fall at the clam movements of his breathe, he was clam, for once he was calm he wasn't worried, he wasn't scared, he wasn't mad, and he wasn't sad, he was calm and silent breathing in the deep scent of ocean water and feeling the cold flash of the chilly breeze on his perfectly sculpted face. Nothing could go wrong at least that is what we thought. All of a sudden the boat jerked forward and then backward and the forward again, he wasn't calm anymore. I felt his heartbeat quicken as I looked up at him and for a split second i saw the worry and the fear in his ocean deep blue eyes. "Tye?" He got up fast and walked to the engine behind us he looked around it and realized something he ran back to me and grabbed a life vest. "Tye whats going on, whats that for" there was only one. "Put this on Blair" he smiled like there was something wrong which there was. "Tyler whats happening?" I pushed away the life jacket "Nothing Blair everything's fine just put this on just to be safe" I took the jacket slowly his hands were shaking. The boat swayed and creaked and tilted and then stopped, and everything was silent. "Hey hey hey its going to be ok nothings wrong we are going to be fine" He grabbed my shoulders and hugged me like it was the last and it turns out it was. That night the boat flipped, that night he saved me and not him self, he gave his life to save mine, that night I was the only survivor, that night a part of me died, that night my life changed forever.
