17 Boyfriend
NICK'S POINT OF VIEW
He's walking next to the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. While you walk, he sees how your hair and dress blows through the wind. He can't help but stare at the rare jewel next to him. He knows he shouldn't have turned around and go look for you but his connection to you is undeniable. He suddenly gives a loud sigh as he comes to a realization.
(I need to break up with Helena. We might be good together but if I can get more and better, I should at least try)
"Is everything okay?"
He looks confused at your question but at the same time, that's what he likes about you. You genuinely care about his well being, where Helena doesn't even notice.
"Yeah, why do you ask?"
"I just thought…..well, it's silly really…"
"No, please tell me?"
"Well, I heard you sigh and thought you have something heavy on your mind?"
"Oh, no. I'm perfectly fine. Actually, I was just thinking you're asking me all these questions maybe it's my turn?"
"Yes, of course, fire away"
You both laugh at the clever pun you made.
"Mine is a bit more personal if you don't mind?"
"I'm an open book…"
"Okay, so do you have a boyfriend waiting for you somewhere?"
KIM'S POINT OF VIEW
You're walking next to probably one of the best built men that you've ever seen in your life and he's asking you about your love life. You could be honest with him and tell him that things aren't working out for you and John, or you could just give him a straight answer and say yes. He still has Helena and he needs to be thinking about her. You need to release him from this spell that you two are clearly under. You can't do anything until he's available.
"Yeah, I have a boyfriend waiting back home"
You know you're doing the right thing but why does it feel so damn wrong. Why does it feel like you just gave up the one true and real thing in your life just now. You feel not like a burden has been lifted but rather that you just place a ton of bricks on your shoulders.
NICK'S POINT OF VIEW
He looks at you once and then once more. Never did he expect you to say those words but what did he think? That you would just be single and that no one would have snatched you up yet and made you theirs. He feels so stupid that he even thought that there could've been a possibility. He knows that a jewel like you won't stay unclaimed for long. He looks at his feet and tries not to look disappointed.
He then goes into his no care attitude mode. This has saved him many times before from awkward situations and he never looks like the fool. He pulls off his shirt and looks at you through his sunglasses, smiling.
"Well, I'm happy that you have someone. I'm going for a swim. See you around then?"
He turns around and dives into the ocean, trying to fight away the immense disappointment and heartache he feels. He knows now that there's no way that you and he could be together. It must mean that he and Helena were meant to be.
KIM'S POINT OF VIEW
The moment he pulled off his shirt and you saw that body you saw once before, you realize you just made the biggest mistake. You should've told Nick that you and John aren't going to work out but this little voice of reason inside you compels you to do the right thing. You blame your mother for this always seeing to it that you do the right thing but was this the right thing?
You see him running into the ocean and his perfectly sculpted body moves in harmony to make this picture look unbreathable. You could've sworn you felt disappointment from him before he disappeared. You feel completely alone and sad as you see this handsome man turning away from you but you know it's for the best. You turn around sadly and walk back to camp.
(He needs to figure things out and me too)
NICK'S POINT OF VIEW
He swims for a little while and then he can't help himself looking back at you. He sees you walking back and his heart plummets. He knows he should forget about you bur his heart craves to hold you. He stands in the water and stares at you walking away. Then his eyes caught someone approaching you from the side. He recognizes the clothing and sees the way he's zoning in on you moving closer.
Nick goes into full-blown attack mode. He swims quietly back to the beach and then tries to move out of the enemy's eyesight. He sees as the enemy moves even closer to you and then takes out a knife. Nicks'heart starts to pump in his throat and he knows that all the man wants to do is kill you. Nick moves quieter than a cat and faster than a panther. The attacker is only a few steps from you when Nick jumps on him from behind.
KIM'S POINT OF VIEW
You're unawarely walking back to the camp when you hear a commotion next to you. You turn to the noise and see Nick on top of a man. The man has a knife in his hand and it's clear that he wants to hurt Nick.
"Nick!!! Knife!!!"
You watch as Nick rolls around with the man in the sand. Nick reaches for the man's knife but he's just too late as the man drives the knife into his leg. Nick yanks the knife out and throws it far from them. He then shouts at you as his hands are on the man's head.
"Kim!! Look away!!"
You turn around in much hesitation but you know that it's best to listen when Nick speaks, as he's the best in what he does. You hear the sound of something cracking and then everything is quiet. You hear footsteps walking up to you and fear overtakes you. You know you must listen to Nick but what if…You feel a hand on your shoulder. You turn around and stare into Nick's face stricken with concern.
"Are you okay?"
"Am I okay??? What do you mean?? I'm fine!! Are you okay??"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Are you sure he didn't hurt you in any way?"
"Yeah, I'm sure…Nick!! Oh my god!!!"
You look him up and down and then see blood gushing out on the side of his upper leg. This is extremely bad as one of your main blood veins runs through your upper leg and you can bleed to death if it's not treated immediately. You grab Nick by the shoulders and let him sit on the ground. You tear a strip from your dress and press it onto the knife wound on his leg. You put his hand on your hand.
"Now you listen to me, Nick. Press this as hard as you can against your leg. I have to close the wound as fast as possible. You don't let go of it, not for one second, do you hear me?"
You see his face turning pale and you realize you don't have much time before he potentially bleed out.
(Fuck)
