As Hailey and Ryan continue their walk Ryan stops at pull Hailey in to a hug and lightly kisses her on the lips.
“Hailey the time that we have spent apart since April and more so has made me realise this.
With Hailey still in Ryan’s arms she looks up with sad dark eyes. Ryan releases Hailey form the hug but still holds her hand and continue to walk in silence listing to the wave roll in. Ryan looks at Hailey and can tell that she is in deep thought.
“Ryan I need to tell you something, and I am not sure how you will take it. It is something that weighs heavily on my heart and it bothers me that you do not know after what you just told me.”
“Hailey luv you can tell me anything, I am here to listen.”
Hailey stops walking and sits on the sand pulling Ryan down with her not looking at him. “Ryan you know how you told me earlier about being engaged?” Ryan looks at Hailey with a nod and a bit of a scared/sceptical look on his face which makes Hailey give a light laugh. “No I am not engaged but I once was, I have never talked about this with anyone.” Hailey stopped and to an unsteady breath. His name was Ashton and for five years he was my light… my reason to live. We started dating in high school, he and I even got in to the same university. Anyways three years ago we were in a car accident. It was not his fault a drunk driver ran a red light and crossed the center line and hit our car head on more so on his side. The next thing I remembered was waking up in the hospital. Not knowing where he was and if he was ok. My mom, step dad, and my brother were by my bed side once I was awake I asked for Ashton and my mother just looked at me and I knew he was killed in the accident. My family thought there was something wrong with me I did not cry I think I was still in shock from the accident.” Hailey said as she started to cry and Ryan took her in his arms.
“It’s ok Hailey I’m here for you. It’s going to be ok.” As Ryan held her Hailey felt as though the weight she had been harboring life off her heart. “Hailey look at me I am glad you told me about Ashton. Hailey take your time with your emotions I will be here for you.” Hailey then buried her head in to Ryan’s chest as he tightens his arms around her. After 15 minutes Hailey pulled back with a look of embarrassment on her face.
“I I I I’m sorry Ryan I did not mean to break down like that, it is not in my nature.” With that said she stood up and started to walk back down the beach well Ryan sat there with a look of pure confusion on his face. When all of a sudden he realised what happened he got up and ran after her. Hailey had not gotten far when Ryan grasped her by her arm.
“Hailey hold up… Why are you embarrassed?”
“Because losing my composure like I did is a sign of weakness, and I am not allowed to be weak. I will not allow it and my career does not either.”
