Chapter fourteen: "Marshmallow"

We ate first the snacks he brought for our picnic, Cloud's hands reached in his small bag and pulled out a camera. He then pointed the camera at me "Smile!"

I held the half-bitten sandwich close to my face and I grinned at the camera, the camera clicked signaling that my picture was already taken. Cloud sets down the camera flat on the blanket "Hurry the timer is on!" He held his one arm out for me and I hurriedly scooted close to him

My head rested at his shoulder as we smiled for the camera

"I might head to Paris for a photoshoot" he announced to be while we waited for the timer to go off

"Oh, so how long will you be there?" I asked

"Probably for 1 week" he answered disappointedly

I moved my hand up and down at his back like a massage motion to stop him from stressing about it, juggling modeling and college life is no easy feat. We heard the camera click then we stopped posing

I gave him a light kiss "Don't stress too much or else your insomnia is gonna get worse again, you are still not yet recovered" I reminded him, he is almost finishing his routine check-ups that he still hates

What I am happy about is that he no longer depends on sleeping pills anymore which gave me a sense of relief, I found out that he turns to smoking and drinking to cope with himself back when we were still frenemies.

Cloud was facing the water with a stolen look

"Cloud" I called out his name and he shifted his attention to me

He smiled down at me showing his cute dimples "Yeah Angel?"

"It's only a week, don't worry," I said while standing up to stretch my arms and legs, I glanced down at Cloud and saw him gawking "Stop staring at my butt"

He smirked "Sorry, Can't help it"

I gave out my hand to him so I could pull him up from the ground, my feet knocked over something and it fell flat on the sand "We forgot to drink the wine" I pointed to the wine bottle flat on the sand

Cloud picked it up "We can drink this tonight before we leave back to Alberta" he suggested
I guess drinking with him tonight won't sound too bad

"THERE YOU GUYS ARE!" We were both startled by my Mom walking up to us "There is going to be a bonfire tonight and we're gonna roast some marshmallows, do you two wanna come? The whole family will be there" she asked excitedly with an excited face

I glanced up at Cloud's face before facing Mom "Sure!"

"Great! See you there sweetie, you too Cloud" she waved goodbye to us before heading to Aunt Holly to tell her about the bonfire gathering

After she was already far away from us, I said loudly "Whoever reaches the water last would be buying the marshmallows" then I started running to the waters with Cloud already running beside me at lightning speed

I accidentally tripped on something which made me fall and my hand touched the water making me the winner by accident "HA! I WIN MARSHALL" I yelled with a victory smirk

"Not on my watch" he replied then proceeded to pull me by the leg along the shore

"HEY!"

He glanced down at me while holding both of my feet, I crossed my arms at him "I was expecting you to carry me romantically but I didn't expect you to pull me like a trash bag"
I was hoping he would carry me bridal style and throw me in the water but no, this guy just pulls me like a mop
