We both breathed heavily as we traveled up the steep stairs. It was a lot easier to go up than down besides the fact that you feel like you're carrying a huge ass boulder behind you.

I grabbed onto Clays arm which was in front of me. "I'm going to die, drag my corpse up with you, I can't do this anymore," It felt like a million beads of sweat were dripping off my forehead.

Clay giggled, "We're almost there." He took my hand and held it in his as he helped me travel up. The rain certainly wasn't helping. For now, it was lightly drizzling, but I could tell it's gonna start raining harder soon.

I slouched my head onto the front board of the passenger seat as Clay hopped in the car from the drivers side. As expected, the rain became heavier and heavier. You could noticeably hear the raindrops tap against the car windows and rooftop. It was getting even cloudier than before. Clay started the car, the windshield wipers went back and worth.

"Huh? Where are we going," I looked around, not bothering to put on a seatbelt.

"You'll see," He winked at me then turned his head back to the road.

"God, please don't ever do that again," I cringed. "I would slap you, but if I do we'd fall off the side of the road and fall down the cliff." I giggled.

Clay laughed, "I gotta use my beauty to its full potential, y/n."

When we got to the place I still had no idea where we were. We were still on the side of the road of the same road just further away than before. He always pulls these surprises on me, but I don't think I'll ever admit that I secretly like them. Though the rain was heavy, it was only here for a short period of time, it went away in about 10 minutes, so we just waited in the car until it stopped.

"Where the fuck are we?" I looked around us as I got out of the car, avoiding the giant puddle next to me. "This is the part where you murder me and throw my body into the ocean right?" I giggled.

He pushed my head forward like a scolding father. "Just behind those trees and you'll recognize it." He pointed at the trees in front of us as he started walking towards them.

It was pretty foggy and cloudy, yet the road looked so beautiful. Water, from the rain earlier, dripped off the pine trees' leaves. There were small puddles on the floor, everywhere.

I started running, pushing his head like he did with me a couple seconds ago as I passed him. Seeing me run, he started running too. "I'll get there first!" I hollered at him as he started catching up to me. How is this man so goddamn fast.

As soon as I ran past the trees I could tell where we were. It was that same place we both rested at when we got lost on that stupid senior trip. I saw the same bench we both sat on, the bench that looked over the ocean, the one sitting on top of the cliff. Whatever spirit that possessed that bench must be happy, they get to look down at such a beautiful sea, they get to spend their days admiring it. The tall blades grass blew, each blade of grass seemed in sync with each other like a symphony. I walked to the bench, softly smiling as I got more and more near to it as Clay followed behind me. I stood next to bench, the ocean breeze blew my hair, that familiar cool feeling brushing against my face.

We both sat down on the bench, sure the seat was wet, but I didn't care and neither did Clay. I hugged Clay from his side. Clay turned to me, shaking off my hug. He sweetly smiled before softly putting his hands under my jaw, cupping it. Before he could place his lips on mine I went in. Our lips made contact, his lips were soft and warm. I put my hands in his soft hair. The kiss, it was like a sweet letter written for someone you loved, one that you would put a wax seal on and decorate with lavender to then sweetly kiss before putting it into the mailbox. He passionately nipped at my bottom lip. His lips were so sweet. I wanted more and more, I feel something about him. I can't put it into words, I feel for him, I feel like I'm apart of him. I feel like I can't ever breathe a breath without him. I feel like I couldn't live without him. I care for him so much, I would do anything for him. How do I put this feeling into words.......I love you. Thats it, that's the word. I giggled as I pulled my lips out, finally realizing. I smiled as he rested his forehead on mine, we looked into each others eyes deeply. I could see it in his eyes and he could see it in mine

"I love you," We breathed out at the same time. We both giggled as we smiled against each other.

"I'm in love with you." A tear rolled down Clay's cheeks.

My eyes watered, "And I'm in love with you." A tear escaped.

At the same time, we both slowly inched our lips closer and closer to each other until they touched. This kiss was so passionate. It was full of....love. I loved him so much that I couldn't even truly put it into words. The word 'love' wasn't even enough to explain how I felt for him. I love him so much that the word love isn't even enough.
