Chapter 10 Lake
"Erik where are you taking me?" I asked the thousandth time as he pulled me along on the side walk, his hand around my wrist. "You will find out soon enough." He said smirking pulling me around another corner. "Well where ever you are taking me it must be bad cause u have a hell of a death grip on me." "Oh I didn't notice it was that hard, sorry." He said letting go of my wrist and entwining his fingers in mine making me blush as all get out, but of course he didn't notice, thank god for that. I glanced around observing the area. He was pulling me into town, a part I had never been to. "Please tell me where we are going, Erik." I begged. "Not a chance." He said flashing me one of his gorgeous smiles and laughed. "Has anyone told you, you were evil." I mudderd making him laugh. I looked around again trying to ignore were ever he was taking me. I saw people walking by on the other side of the road. Somewhere walking by not paying a bit of attention to me being kidnapped by Erik. And other's. Well the other's were gawking. I tried again pulling and tugging at the hand he was griping, his grip didn't loosen at all. I exhaled an annoyed breath. "Just tell me where we are going and I'll stop pulling. "Nope, my surprise." He said hiding a laugh behind his voice. So I tugged and pulled more. He stopped, letting go of my hand and turned towards me looking me in the eyes. "Cam- Selece will you please stop struggling I'm taking you to Liz- Liea
and the other's okay. We are going to go swimming at the lake now will you stop struggling and come on!" "Fine, all you had to do was tell me where I was going." I grumbled and started walking sliding past him. "Selece, come on. Don't be mad at me." He said sliding his hand into mine. "I'm not mad see." I said giving him a fake un-insuring smile. "Like I'm going to believe that pitiful thing." He said and laughed making me smile for real. "Now, come on, they are waiting." He said giving my hand a squeeze.
After walking nearly six blocks my legs were killing me. "God, why couldn't have we just flied. My feet hurt." I complained letting go of his hand, which I could tell he didn't like, and belt down to rub my ankles. "Well it's not like we could just shoot up into the sky right here, right now, with all these people around." "True, true." I whispered with a smile. He held out a hand which I took and stood up. I looked around to see where we were, but instead I saw Chealsey. Walking towards us, glaring at me. I looked over at Erik who still had my hand in his and was looking at me. "Chealsey" I mouthed her name and I saw his jaw clinch as she walked up to us with a girl named Willow. "Hey Erik, Willow and I were heading to a movie. Want to come?" She said placing her hand on his arm, and giving him a flirty smile. "Sorry I'm going to the lake with Selece." He said and her eyes flickered to me, giving me a deathly glare. I just rolled my eyes at her, I could see jealousy all over her face, as I suppress a laugh.
"Well see you later, Erik." She said as she brushed her fingers on his arm and walked away. When I was sure she couldn't see me I stuck out my tongue and made a gagging noise. I heard Erik laugh next to me which made me smile.
"Here we are." Erik said as we rounded the last corner. The lake was beautiful, the water sparkled as the sun hit it. The lake was huge four or five Ackers maybe. Families were splashing around in the water and others were laying on the side of the lake watching. "Wow." Was all I could say. "Like it? Let's find the others." I nodded looking at how the light his face. Liza, Jearn, and Marygold were splashing around in the water with other kids and the twins were sitting on the side and from what I could tell they were goggling at girls. Sexist pigs. "Erik I don't have a bathing suit." I said just noticing that Erik had a bathing suit on with a t-shirt to hide his wings. "I noticed that Liza said she brought it just in case you came." I walked over to the edge where they were playing at and instantly Liza/Liea mouth went off. "Oh my god, your better. I thought you would be in bed all day. You looked so pale when we left, you were fine one moment sick the next. Are you feeling better, now can you swim or have fun? I brought your bathing suit just in case you felt better and guess what you do. Obviously because you're here and all but-" "Liea!!" me and Erik yelled in unique. "Where is the swim suit." "In the bag." "Thank you." I said walking over to the bag.
I stepped out of the dressing room. And on to the soft grass the bikini bottoms stuck out under the big shirt. I walked over to the water's edge and glanced around Liza, Jearn and Marygold were having a breath holding contest, the twins were sitting talking to a huge group of girls. I suppressed a laugh and looked for the only person I hadn't seen yet. Erik set on a inflated raft his hands under his head and his eyes closed as if he fell asleep. An idea popped into my head as I stepped into the water and silently. I set my head in hands on the side of the raft and reached up and flicked him on the side of the head. His eyes shot open and the raft shook as he tried to sit up. "What up." I asked. "Nothing really, just sleep." He said and smiled at me making my heart stop. "You aren't even wet yet you got out here before me and I'm soaked." I said motioning to my soaked hair and t-shirt. "I see." he said still smiling. "Then get in." "I don't want to, I want to stay dry." "Not if I have a say in it." I said with a big smile. "You wouldn't." "I would." I yelled and grabbed the edge of the raft and flipped. He flung off the raft and into the water making a big splash. I bursted out in laughter. I laughed swallowing gulps of water at times. I felt something grab my ankle and pull me under, I opened my eyes to see Erik pulling at my under. When he got me low enough he locked me
in to a head lock and gave me a noggie. We were so low I knew no one could see us, I stretched out my wings knocking him off. I tucked them in and swam up as fast as I could. I reached the top gasping for air. I looked around for anyone, Liza and Marygold were floating on their backs starring at the sky. I swam as fast as I could. "Help me now." I screamed scaring them half to death. "What happened. Are you okay." They shrieked. "I'm fine, except for the fact Erik is chancing me!" "Why is he chasing you?" "I tipped his raft over." I said smiling remembering what had just did. "Well that's your fault you shouldn't have done it." Marygold said looking over my head. I wiped my head around to see Erik wrap his arms around my waist. "I should have seen this coming, literally." I muttered under my breath. He just let out a short laugh. I glanced over at Marygold and Liza who were swimming franticly away. RRRRR I'm going to kill them for this. "Will you let go of me you got revenge you scared me half to death." He laughed once again and then replied. "I thought you would like this situation." He said tightening his grip. Okay maybe he was right I did like this- But I was cut when I saw him the dark haired boy, our eyes met for a moment until someone passed between us and he was gone. That face was so fimiulor face and the eye's. Who the hell was this guy! "Camerie," Erik said softly. "Are you okay." He turned me around, still holding me tight. "Yes, I'm fine."
