Jacob
The smell of salt water invaded my nostrils and it stung. I wasn't used to this at all it was different...it was calming... I felt free. There were people walking on the sand with their families and friends or significant others. Sometimes I think about what my family could've been if my mom didn't die and my father didn't become an abusive drunk. Other times I think of what life would've been like if I haven't met Titus. Would I still be getting bullied? Getting abused? Hell I probably would be at collage right now or at least have a high school diploma.
We ran away about four years ago. I'm 21 now Titus is 22 now. He brought us to Florida off the coast of West Palm. It's nice here I suppose. The people are.... Well Floridians not too bad but also not too good either. Surprisingly the news from our town never even made it out this far. I guess cops from small towns not being able to solve a case would rather let it stay secret than prove they aren't capable to do their job.
I thought that movie out here that Titus would stop the killing but how wrong was I. Instead of slowing down and letting go he just became more strategic in carrying them out. I don't really mind tho. I just stay out the way and help when I'm needed—like helping hide the bodies or getting supplies.
While stuck in my thoughts I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist causing me to jump.
"Hey baby." Titus said while squeezing me tightly and placing a kiss in on my neck. Baby is something he always calls me now. I like it.
"Hey Titus." I hug his arms to make the embrace tighter. Physical touch is something he also initiates in more. More often than I do and here I thought it was my love language.
"Enjoying the view again I see?" I nodded my head while smiling really big. For some reason I can't get enough of this view. I honestly love it here not gonna lie. "You know, we'll have to leave again soon."
Looking up at him I seen him looking at me with a serious expression. "How come?" I really didn't want to go I love the ocean.
"We've just been here too long. Given my...choice of occupation we can't stay in one place too long." I nodded at that. I still didn't know how he was able to get us a life here in the first place. Heck I don't even know how were able to just up and leave. He won't tell me how he gets his money and just tells me not to worry my little head about it. I mean I can't complain I never want for things I can't have anymore since he gives me what I want and need. Sometimes without having to ask for it.
Turning around fully to look at him, I wrap my arms around his neck while his goes around my hips to pull me closer. We rock back and forth sand getting in our shoes. "How soon is soon?" I asked.
Smiling he kissed me on my lips. Making it deeper. I still get butterflies every time he kisses me. It feels like I'm in heaven.
"About a week or two." He says after kissing me. I smile and kiss him once more.
"I love you." I tell him while hugging him. My face in his chest. His chest tumbled in satisfaction.
"Yes." He smiled into my hair still walking us back and forth.
