Underwater
Chapter One
It was times like these that I resented Nudge's need to be fashionable. If it wasn't for her need to get the PERFECT bathing suit, we would have left 2 hours ago. We tried to tell her that it won't matter, it's February and nobody but us is going to see her in it. But to Nudge, everyday you have to dress like you are going to be in a fashion show. Of course I wouldn't be in this mess to begin with if it weren't for Angel's consistent begging to take a trip to the beach. So I finally gave in and here we are, in the middle of specialty store buying bathing suits.
Finally, four hours later, we bought our bathing suits and we passed out on our beds in our hotel room. I heard a soft knock on my door. I dragged myself out of bed and opened the door to Fang's beautiful face staring back at me. He strode in and sat on my bed. I closed the door and sat next to him.
"I could tell you loved shopping today." Fang said, his voice laced with sarcasm. Along with his smug smile, he made my heart melt like warm butter.
"I was just glad Nudge didn't make us show them off for everybody."
"Obviously you didn't talk to Angel. She said that Nudge was really thinking about doing just that. Angel talked her out of that real fast, saying that you could see our wings with our bathing suits on, and if anybody else saw us…. well you can figure out the rest." After he said that there was an awkward silence as we both looked at each other.
"Seeing as neither of us is looking forward to the trip tomorrow, let's make it interesting. I'll talk to Iggy and get him to pack us a picnic lunch." As I listened to his voice as he said this, how could I say no?
"Sure," I mumbled as his lips softly touched mine. He only stayed for a second before he left. I brought my thoughts back to that moment as I drifted off to sleep.
