I pulled up to our place and parked in front of the trail. Harry literally fell out of the Jeep.
"Jesus Harry you can barely walk." I said helping him up.
"I walk fine." He slurred.
"Really? So if I let go you'll be able to walk by yourself." I said challenging him.
"Totally." He said confidently.
"Okay." I said stepping away.
He fell.
Hard.
Face first into the surrounding gravel.
"Son of a birdy." He mumbled.
I helped him up off the ground and we began walking down the trail.
"Jeez there's a lot more bushes and trees than I remember." I stated.
"The baby bushes grew up." He giggled leaning more into me.
"Okay Haz, whatever you say." I said laughing.
"You called me Haz." He said quietly.
"Yeah, I guess I did." I said realizing what I'd said.
After walking through overgrown bushes, trees, and grass, most likely stepping over a couple snakes I finally made it to our place.
It was a little secluded place on the beach Harry and I stumbled on when we were young. There was a small abandoned shack away from the crashing waves, we always sat and talked about our secrets, dreams, and ambitions. The last summer Harry was here we didn't come to our place.
"Look, look at the stars." He said looking up.
"They're beautiful." I said.
"Not as beautiful as you." He admitted.
"Let's just go in and sit." I said avoiding his comment.
It was probably just the alcohol talking.
"Oh my god." I said disgusted by the shack.
"Looks likes it's been occupied." He said laughing at the mess.
I kicked the used condoms out of the way along with the crumpled stained blanket which had god knows what on it.
Harry and I sat there in silence just looking at each other for awhile.
"Harry why did you want to come here?" I finally asked.
"We always come here." He said.
"Not the last summer you were here." I said annoyed.
He just sat there staring at me.
"Is that why you are pissed at me?" He asked.
"Maybe." I said avoiding the question.
"Then why are you avoiding me? Why haven't you said a word to me?" He said after awhile.
"I think a better question is why did you avoid me? Why didn't you say anything to me? Why did you go to all those parties and stumble in during the early hours of the morning? Why weren't you there for me?" I questioned angrily.
"I was afraid!" He shouted back.
"Of what? I don't exactly have cooties!" I spat back sarcastically.
"I was afraid of loving you!" He admitted.
What the hell?
