Chapter 3

Day 3

-….-

Wanda's POV

-….-

Slowly I opened my eyes to what seemed like the sound of rain. Rain! I loved rain and I missed it after being in here for so long! I hopped off my mattress and patted down my clothing to make sure it wasn't wrinkled or revealing anything. I quickly walked to Jamie's room and peered inside, "Jamie? Are you awake honey?"

He groaned in response. I'll admit it was still very early. The only other person up this early was probably Jeb, maybe Doc. I sat on his mattress and kindly stroked his hair, "Do you want to come see the rain? It's right outside."

Immediately his eyes popped open and he raced past me at an incredible speed. I heard him race to where the fields were growing and shout as loud as he could given the fact I was right behind him running as fast as I could to catch up,"Jeb!" He yelled,"Jeb! Water! Get the pots out Uncle Jeb!"

Suddenly he just stood there and was staring at a beautifully arranged line of vases at the end of the fields, "Oh."

"Beat you to it kid," Jeb chuckled. He walked up slowly and patted his shoulder then mine, "Better hope you didn't wake anybody, you made quite the ruckus." Walking towards the tunnels leading back to the kitchen and other rooms he announced, "Breakfast should be ready soon, be prepared," he laughed. I glared at Jamie and shook my head. He simply grinned and hugged me tightly around my shoulders. God I hated being almost the same height as a 14 year old boy. With that he ran after Jeb like a hyperactive puppy.

Rolling my eyes I decided to follow suit, not running though, just walking. As I neared the bathing rooms a large force rammed into my side and knocked me over the edge as I landed in the fast river that had almost killed Kyle. Clutching on to the side, I cried for help and got a memory of when him and I were fighting and he was begging also. It was so hard to hold Pet's body firmly to the side because it wasn't like Mel's, it was fragile and weak. Just then I felt a strong arm lift me out of the water and I collapsed in the person's arms and sobbed. It was Jared. He held me tightly and stroked my hair, "Shh, it's okay, it was only a slip you have to be more careful next time honey," he whispered.

"Yeah, I - I know," I nodded my head and stopped crying. Standing up I touched his arm gently and smiled, "Thank you again."

I began to walk towards the kitchen when he took my hand in his and turned me around forcefully, "Remember what I said yesterday Wanda. I love you and I will always be there to protect you."

"Jared…." I sighed and turned around. The look in his eyes was full of pain as I let go and ran away from him.

"Time for breakfast!" Jeb shouted. Everybody was so happy and laughing. I couldn't help but feel happy too. I giggled for what seemed like forever. The rain began to pour heavier each minute and I poked my dainty hand out to feel it. I longed to go out there. Jared stood up from his seat and yelled, "I challenge Jamie to a soccer tournament outside, right now."

"You're on old man. Anybody who wants to join us can play," he snickered. He ran right past me and into the heavy downpour. I couldn't believe what I was seeing as Jared raced after him, "Jamie? Are you crazy?" I yelled. But he was so far out he couldn't hear me anymore. Fine, if I can't stop him than I'll try to help him. I sighed as Burne's came up behind me and shoved me into the water. I began to giggle uncontrollably and span around in circles for what seemed like forever. He chuckled and walked outside to where the boys were playing. I stared out and jogged to where Jamie was. His eyes filled with disappointment instantly.

"What?" I stammered.

"So Jared gets Burnes and I'm stuck with you?"

I felt terrible and my heart sunk, it felt like a kick to the stomach. Jamie formed a huge grin on his face and squeezed me tightly in his arms, "I'm just kidding Wanda." I rolled my eyes and started giggling again and shook my head.

"Alright, the kid can have it first," Burnes stated and threw the soccer ball to Jamie's feet. Jamie caught it and yelled, "Okay, ready …...set…..GO!"

I ran to the opposite end where Jared was to attempt to block him from our goal. Jamie kicked like a wild animal to their's and shot it in but Burnes jumped up and kicked it to Jared. Jared span the ball around and shot it in instantly. He was so quick I didn't even see his leg move when he kicked it. My eyes popped open.

"One to zero. Our ball," He shouted. Winking towards me, he picked it up and set it in the middle of the dirt field. With a long stride he shot it directly into the goal again. "Two to zero!"

"Twelve to one!"

"Thirteen to one!"

and so on…

This wasn't fair, they were both so good and…. I stunk and no offense but Jamie wasn't that great either. I sighed and plopped down on the ground as it began to pour harder as to where I couldn't see two feet ahead of me. I heard Jared tell Burnes to take Jamie back and that he would try to find me. A huge pair of masculine arms picked me up from behind and ran towards a small opening in the ground about three hundred feet from the tunnels and our home. He jumped in to make sure it was safe ground and helped me enter. I started to laugh again and he smiled so lovingly it made me want to melt into him. We were forced to stay pressed against each other because of the small size of the cavern like structure.

I didn't really mind though, I was starting to heat up to Jared a little more. He grinned ,"Well wasn't that fun?"

"So much! I loved it! We should do it again soon." I started to ramble about how much fun it was when I caught him staring at me with such loving eyes my face turned pink and I stopped. My whole body was pressed against his and it seemed like the perfect moment. We stared at each other for what seemed like forever until I cupped his face in between my two palms.

"Jared…" I whispered. Pressing my lips against his wet forehead and cheeks until I reached his mouth. He set his arms around my waist and I pulled mine around his neck. He kissed me with so much passion I almost couldn't handle it. I began to trail my fingers down his chest until I reached his … man-part. Awkwardly I placed my hands back to his chest and began to lift his shirt off his body never unlocking my lips from his.

He moaned in my mouth and pressed against me harder, switching positions, so that he could press me against the wall. His hands ran down my body and he began unbuttoning the sweater I was wearing at an incredible pace. My heart ached for him

as I stared at his beautiful masculine body and it took everything in me to not get too carried away with the situation. He finally took off my shirt and threw it on the ground next to our feet. I quickly unfastened his belt and pulled his jeans down. I was so excited. I don't know what came over. That's when I realized he wasn't kissing me anymore. He stopped and was pulling his clothes back on.

"Jared? What's wrong?" I stammered.
