" and i love her ".

I was pulled into the sand, the sound of the waves comforting me recklessly as I stare at the beauty of the beach. There was something so beautiful about the sound of such a silent ocean— it makes me track down the simple apologies people would say as they look at such beauty.
And it wasn't the only beauty that my own eyes were witnessing.
The auburn haired woman who was smiling at me, made my gaze soften as I looked at her.
The stars seemed to align perfectly together inside her eyes; the twinkle of joy and happiness that traced her pupils made me move closer.
To pull her hands into mine.
"Hope".
"Josie".
We said at the same time and started to laugh.
"You go ahead".
I nodded, "For the past few months. I haven't been the soberest human, and I haven't been the best friend that you could ever look for". I started, "I, in no way wanted to deceive your expectations of me".
"But, I was wrong".
I sighed and looked down at our intertwined hands. "Alcohol blinded me from realizing that I genuinely have someone, that who looks after me, even when I was a drunk mess, and crying for the love of my life to come back and take me as I am".
"But, you did". I looked up at her and watched how she nervously glanced at my eyes.
"You took me as I am, and took care of me, and your words Hope.. They were the reason why I wanted to stop this habit of mine".
"Josie..". She was near tears by now, "No, let me finish". I pleaded and she nodded at me.
"Hope, every time you looked in my eyes, and said; Pretty, please".
**Flashback On**
"I can't do this anymore..". My voice came out in whispers.
"You can". She looks me straight in the eye.
"You aren't supposed to be here". The pain that lingered inside of my eyes, made my best friend frown.
"You're supposed to leave".
"..like everyone else". I bit my lip and cried.
"Pretty, please". Hope wiped the tears off my cheeks.
"Don't cry".
*Flashback Off*
"Every time you saw beauty in me when the whole world found me as an unstable soul". I bit my lip, "I realized that this pain, is nothing close to the pain I'm causing you".
"And for that, I want you to know Hope.. that I'm deeply in love with you".
Tears escaped her eyes, and I started to panic; "No, no please don't cry".
"Pretty, please don't cry". I whispered, and kissed her hands, before wiping the tears away.
"What did you say?". She started to giggle.
"Pretty please?". I was caught off guard by her lips on mine.
The taste of cherry on her lips made me smile, and she was nothing but a sweet melody, that I wanted to listen to forever.
"I love you Hope". I said when she pulled away.
"I love you too, and you will always remain the most beautiful thing in my eyes, my pretty Josette".
THE END.
" and i love her ".
