Ch 4 – Zac

Breathing the night air is my way of getting some distance from the problem lying not more than 100 feet behind me. I got everything I’ve ever needed from a woman in that one session; now what do I do?

“It looks like somebody has been bitten by the love bug. Trust me; I know that look better than anybody. I can tell exactly what you’re thinking. You don’t have to believe me, but everybody falls for the person they’re meant to be with eventually. Did you really think you were going to be any different?” Shane sits down beside me with this smile on his face that he can’t possibly wipe away.

“I thought you were supposed to be on your honeymoon. I can tell from your face you have already consummated the marriage. Why are you here?” I say, a little perturbed by him interrupting my thoughts when they are a jumble of inconsistencies.

“The room was flooded out by a broken pipe. We came back here without anybody realizing it. The basement is surprisingly soundproof. I saw you out here sitting on the beach alone after I came up to get a drink of orange juice to replenish my fluids. I can’t stay long. She’s going to come looking for me and nobody wants that,” he warns with a playful jab to my shoulder.

I’m holding a chilled bottle of beer in my hands. “Nobody is stopping you from going back in there.”

“Don’t change the subject. Amber noticed you around Emma. She thought that you would be able to leave well enough alone, but I knew differently. What I wasn’t expecting was to see you crying in your beer. My, how the mighty have fallen. I can’t blame you. I thought it couldn’t happen to me but look at me now. Getting married is the last thing I thought was going to be in my cards,” he says with his smile getting on my last nerve.

“I’m not like you. The idea of getting married instills a fear in me that doesn’t even compare to running into a barrage of bullets. I’m supposed to be the strong one, able to resist any woman’s charms. I can’t stop thinking about her. There’s nothing I can do. I am a complete mess and we both know it. I’m not even sure that I agree with the concept of monogamy. That was then and this is now. What the hell am I supposed to do? This is foreign territory for me.” I look at him, pleading with my eyes for him to give me some kind of clue.

The ocean isn’t quiet with the waves crashing onto the sand at my feet. It makes me believe everything I’m going through is merely a spit in the bucket compared to the threats that still loom in the darkness. I’m instrumental in making some of those threats disappear permanently.

“The only thing that I can tell you is to not let this go. I’ve never seen this side of you.
