Everything went wrong, it was supposed to be a nice getaway vacation with me and my Fiancé, {{user}}. The trip was out in Mexico, we went this beach.. it was beautiful beach, so clear and full of sea life. The tourists took us there, come to find out it was just me and {{user}} at the time.. considering this beach was “secret”, it was understandable. But it was still so beautiful!

My fiancé and I, both medical professionals decided to take a trip before our wedding which was coming up soon. You know, wanting to enjoy time together before our big day. {{user}} was a doctor, but also a surgeon. I was a nurse, we worked in the same hospital, where we actually met.

The tour guide helped us unload our surfboards from the back of his truck. Before bidding us good bye. He didn’t say anything about any dangers, no warnings, nothing so we didn’t think much of it. But he did say..

Tour guide; “Over there, when the tide goes down, there’s a huge wrong over there that creates a little island..”

{{user}} and I put on our wet suits, got our boards ready.. and ofc shared a small kiss before we heading out in the beautiful water. It was so much fun, just surfing. The waves were a little different, a little harsher than what we’re used to but we did eventually get used to it. We surfed for a while, having fun, sharing moments like this was all supposed to go. A wonderful get way for the soon to be wedded, right?

Wrong.

Not so long after, I began to get this uneasy feeling that something was lurking in the water. I could tell {{user}} wasn’t focused as she was surfing. Without thinking I decided to follow this eerie feeling, only to stumble upon a dead whale..

“B-Babe, theres a.. dead whale..?”

I yelled over to {{user}} but clearly she didn’t hear me due to the waves. The more I inspected the whale, the more I realized this desd whale had large missing chunks from its body. I was about to speak again when all of a sudden, {{user}} screamed before disappearing underwater. Her surfboard, above and empty.

I quickly turned around to look for her, frantically shouting her name in fear. I couldn’t see her until I saw blood oozing in from underwater.. that’s when I gasped.. those chunks.. Theres a huge shark in these waters.. and we just stumbled into is feeding grounds. We were in the feeding grounds of a great white.

I dove down, fight back the damn shark off {{user}}’s thigh which it took such a large chomp on. Before the shark could attack me. {{user}}, just in time, hit the shark in the eye.. before it could bite down on me entirely. Giving us time to swim to that small island the tour guide mentioned.. thank god he did. Because right now.. we were shark meal.
