"No."
Victor's word echoed through the changing rooms. "Can’t you say anything else? I'm getting tired, and we aren't even at the beach yet." He vehemently shook his head. "No, I don't like this one either."
"You know the problem could be solved if you would just let me wear my bikini," the girl said bitterly. Her boyfriend wasn't astonished by her clothing choices, especially the ones she wanted to wear to the ocean. "Can't you just choose a piece that covers you more?" He tried to sound as calm as possible, but his annoyance radiated from his voice. "No. Choose one of these, or I will wear my own," she said firmly and closed the curtains in front of her. The man was left surprised. He started walking back and forth, thinking about her offer. After a few minutes, she came out and turned to him questioningly. "What's your decision? Don't worry; I liked them all." "The red one," Victor said simply, "I prefer the red one." He wanted to seem indifferent, but the girl noticed him blushing.
"It's going to be so fun, just you wait." "With you, everything is a thousand times more interesting, Dummy," he said as he took her round the waist.
....
They luckily chose a pleasant day, the sun was shining, but when needed, a fresh breeze would blow to cool them down. They found a suitable spot, where they could put down their belongings and change into their bathing suits.
There weren't many people at the beach, but as they were walking hand in hand, they got more and more curious stares. "Everyone is looking at us," she whispered. "No everyone is looking at YOU," said Victor emphasizing the last word. "Don't say that! As if you weren't eye-candy for them..." she said petulantly. But for her shock, he smirked. "Well, I'm going to show them whose Dummy they are looking at," he said, and quickly swept her off of her feet. She couldn't even blink; she was in his arms. "Victor put me down. Now." Her bossy tone didn't even faze his cheerfulness. "You may have been able to command me in the store, but your trick isn't enough this time," he said, but continued, "You think I wasn't planning this already? I only agreed to that bikini because I knew it would lead to this." "I should have known you were up to something," she chuckled, "if this is how it is, I will enjoy every minute of the ride." They got closer to the water, but there was no sign of Victor letting her go. "Okay, you can put me down now," she said, but the man didn't even think about that for a minute. "Victor..." "What? You said you will enjoy it." "I can enjoy it on my own feet!" she wiggled but the arms only held her tighter. They reached the ocean, the calm waves lightly brushed over them. He went deeper and deeper until he knew her legs wouldn't reach the bottom. "Do you still want to let go?" he asked, knowing she will say yes out of stubbornness. "Yes..." she said hesitantly, but it was too late, he let her go. She submerged, and soon realized she can't stand on her feet. She could swim, but the sudden shock caused her to jump up and hug her man, as tightly as possible. Victor hardly ever laughed audibly, but he couldn't stop himself now. "Back so soon?" he asked, holding her close. "I just don't want you to get lost in the water," she said, avoiding his question, "besides, I might just like it more with you than alone." "I'm glad you think so Dummy," he whispered. The girl looked up from his chest, to meet his gleaming eyes. She brushed her thumb over his lips, thinking about how lucky she is. She was still breathing heavily but managed to say what was on her mind. "Don't let me go," she muttered softly. Victor smiled at her sweetly, he leaned closer to her, their faces almost met. "I won't," he whispered, "Not now, not in the future." He held up her chin and leaned in for a kiss, but a sudden wave interrupted them. Victor was swept off of his feet, making them fall both. When they got to the surface, the girl put her arms around his neck and laughed playfully. However, her boyfriend seemed to be bothered by the fact that he got interrupted. "We may get separated, but as long as I can, I will find my way back to you," she said bluntly, "Even if you don't remember me, even if the world is collapsing..." He abruptly kissed her, making her stop her speech. When he moved back she looked at the surprised girl lovingly. "I will always find you, no matter the time or cost." He kissed her again, deeper than before. He didn't know whether she was crying or he felt the salty water, but he didn't care. The girl was in his arms, and he will never let her go.
