Moonlight danced on the pond below. Silence drifted in the air and refused to be broken. Only the plunks and splashes were the rocks made before a webbed hand would reach out, and drag them under. Then, THUNK!
" Ill never get it right!" Complained a voice. "Sure you will." Soothed Vanessa, while choosing a speckled rock from the pile after discarding several others. She took Seth's hand, leaving him speechless. Was this going hoe he planned it?! How should he know! He'd never been on a date before! Well, technically this wasn't a date. He had just left night practice with Nero and Vanessa just-so-happened to be the adult to pick him up and the ended up skipping rocks. Vanessa was good but Seth sucked.
"Throw them like this," Vanessa instructed. Seth did as he was told but it plunked down as soon as it touched the water. Vanessa turned to Seth. Her eyes gazed into his.
He stood up. So did she. She leaned forward. So did he.
Moments later Seth held Vanessa close and their lips touched.
He kissed her. She kissed back.
THE END
