Entry 20. June 13, 2009.
[x] Head over to the swimming area.
"It is a frickin' water festival. Who comes to dink around? We came to swim! Winning a prize to warm Mel up first wouldn't have been that bad though. Or walking along the beach... Oh who am I kidding? I've wanted that shirt off since the moment she opened the door."
"Lets go swimming first Melanie! It's getting close to noon, and it's HOT," Felix says. "Yay! Great idea!" Melanie gives a small jump for joy. They head over to the swimming area to kill some time. Felix strips down to his trunks and Melanie throws off her overshirt. It's a body to die for, no questions. Felix tries not to make his staring obvious, but Melanie knows it. "Bet you're wishing you had stayed nice to me, huh?" Melanie taunts before running and diving into the water. "I'm starting to think she's right..." Felix says and chases after her. The two play together in the water for a couple hours. The mood between Melanie and Felix grows more comfortable by the minute. Unable to fight it, Felix knows he's falling for Melanie. He thinks to himself, "Why did I keep her out of my life for so long... We had a great friendship. Think of everything I gave up to live a boring, peaceful life by myself."
The two young adults, now completely tired from too much swimming and goofing around, collapse on the shore next to each other. Melanie turns on her side, facing Felix. Felix stares up at the clear, perfect sky. "You know you shouldn't tease a girl like this, Felix," Melanie says; "Give a girl like me all this false hope and my heart will break for real. "I'm not giving you false hope, Mel," Felix responds, truthfully--a response that surprises him instantly. "You sure have been different lately... I had almost thought I lost you..." Melanie continues.
She places her hand on top of his. Felix's heart skips a beat. He is used to being in control. He is used to being sheltered, certain and confident. In this moment, everything he had made himself to be in the past few years was out the window. "Even after that day, I never stopped loving you Felix..." Melanie confesses. Felix remains silent, taking it all in, more confused than he's ever been in his life. He wonders if this is what he truly wants. He thinks, "Is it really okay? Can I ever be the same person I was back then? We're much older now. Can I really care for her like I promised nearly 10 years ago... Why has she has forgiven me? Why has she never stopped liking me?" His thoughts become irrelevant in the blink of an eye. Melanie leans in and kisses Felix. "Don't leave me alone anymore, okay?" Melanie says softly. Felix can do nothing but nod.
Across the shore, a man watches Felix and Melanie. He takes out his cellphone. His words disappear in the laughter and excitement of the people around him.
It's 3 PM. Out of nowhere, someone walks by Felix quickly, dropping a taco salad on his lap. "What the hell man?! Hey stop!" Felix shouts. The person takes off running. "You have got to be kidding me..." Melanie finds it hilarious. "I can't go around with this sauce on my trunks all day..." Felix complains.
[] Go back home and change.
[] Head to the restrooms and try washing it off as best you can.
[] Ignore it for now and chase the jerk who did it.
What are the voices inside Felix's head telling him to do?
