A/N: Lake house adventure time ^_^.
Chapter 11
"I call changing first!" I call and run upstairs with bag. As I enter I unzip my bag and find a note from Stef who helped me pack my bag.
"Have fun on your trip! I don't want you to stay up all night." She then left in parenthesis. "Brag it about to us. Just leave out the stuff about you and Jude." With a winky face. She knows me too well. I grab my swimsuit and put it on. I take my clothes that I will put back on and put it back in my bag.
Knock, Knock.
"Hurry up slowpoke!" Callie calls out. I get out of the bathroom.
"I was about to come outside until you knocked. I should have waiting longer for doing so." I stick my tongue out at her. I hear Jude laugh in the room adjacent from the bathroom. I point at the room. "Must Jude and I's room." Callie nods her head and enters the bathroom. I throw caution to the wind and open up the door to our temporary stay. When I enter I literally regret opening the door without knocking. I am staring at Jude butt-naked. My face and I mean my entire face, turn tomato red. I close the door.
"Neville!" He throws his shirt at me. To cover up my face except he misses by a mile. I just look the other way.
"I'm so so sorry! I should have knocked first it's all my fault!" Jude walks up to me, still naked. He takes his hand and puts it around my skull and pulls me into a kiss.
"An embarrassed Neville is a cute one." Jude smirks. Jude adds. "Now that you've seen me naked. I wouldn't mind that you see me again like this." A slight blush goes across his face. I pull him into another kiss and push him onto one of the beds. We stood there making out passionately on the bed. It was a reverse of what anybody would do in the situation I was in. I grabbed Jude's swimsuit and helped him put it on as we were kissing. I pull back because I was the only one who could. "They're waiting on us." I get up and open the door. "Time to go." I smile at Jude. He pouts,
"I am having fun here."
"Well I for one actually like swimming so come on." I'm smiling at Jude's attempt to try to get me to stay. I have to say, it's really cute but it won't work on me. "Come on cutie, let's get going." I say to him. I extend my hand to him and he takes it. We walk downstairs where I was right when I said they were waiting for us. Callie smiles at us both.
"Let us go shall we?" Robert says to us. I nod my head.
"Thanks for taking us out here Mr. Quinn." I say to him. He just answers with a nod and a
"Mmhmm." As we were walking to the lake I kind of noticed Sophia holding her arms a way that wouldn't seem normal, as well as her wearing a long-sleeve bathing suit which I'm surprised they made. When we arrived to the lake I, being the free spirit I am, ran to the lake dropped my towel and jumped into the lake.
"The water is fine!" I said when I popped out of the water giving a thumbs up. Robert laughed and follow suit. Jude and Callie waded in as Jill and Sophia was on land still. I swam around the very spacious lake and found a rope swing. I look at Robert who was nodding his head. I grabbed the rope and swung into the lake which was really fun. I managed to scare Jude by coming up from under him and picking him up between his legs. He was surprising not that heavy. I wasn't scrawny anyways.
"Let me go!" He screamed. He was laughing and I was holding on to him pretty tightly.
"Uh oh! Timberrrrrrrr! I say as I was tipping over. Jude and I came toppling over in the water. We both went above water in seconds laughing. I walk up to the ground and spot Sophia still reeling from Jude and I toppling over.
"Come on Sophia! Why don't you get in the water?" Sophia shook her head.
"I'm fine. Thanks for the offer though." I shake my head and grab her forearm. She winces in pain and I let go of her arm. I sit down next to her.
"Are you ok?" I motion to her arm. "Has time really been that rough for you?" She nods her head. "Tell me what's wrong. I'm great listener."
"Stress, Pressure from school and Mom. Stuff like that." Sophia looks indigent about telling me. Sophia eyes me up and down. "You're still wearing your shirt." I nod my head.
"I wear a shirt when I swim all the time." Sophia looks at me in disbelief.
"Dude, you have a hot body. I can see through your shirt." I blush from embarrassment.
"I'm very insecure ok? But not because of my body." I look at Sophia, "You have to promise not to tell anyone ok?" She nodded her head. I turned around and lifted my shirt. Sophia gasped as she ran her hand down my backside. There was red marks all over my back.
"How did this happen?"
"A foster parent I had would literally whip me with an actual whip if I didn't do what he told me to do. He was into some kinky shit and would use that stuff to punish me." Sophia kind of nodded her head. What happened to me seemed way worse then what she was going through. I put my shirt back on and laid down next to her.
"So… are you and Jude like a thing…?" She asked me curiously.
"Straight to the point I see." I say. "Yes we are, sort of. We wouldn't out ourselves to the public because that's like incest in some form but technically we are quote-unquote dating." Sophia smiles at me.
"Well you guys are pretty cute together, and don't think I've been observing what's been going on between you two." She said with a mischievous grin on her face.
"What are you planning Sophia?" She rolls her eyes at me.
"Oh… nothing." She smiles again.
"Well I think it's time to head back! What do you guys think?" Jill said. I nodded my head and we walked back to the house. Where I called dibs again on going first for taking a shower. I left my clothing in our room and I walked in and closed the door to get it. As I remove my towel and was about to grab my underwear Jude walks in and closes the door not noticing I was in here.
"So I guess we are even." I say to him who now notices I'm naked. Jude blushes something fierce.
"Yea…" He says as I pull him into a kiss. "I guess we are." Jude says to me. I put on my underwear and my shorts and go downstairs. Sophia was already down the stairs and she was giving me this smile like she was planning something.
"I see your gears turning Sophia. Tell me what is going on."
"You'll see! Don't worry about it." She says to me. Whenever someone told me not to worry about something, I worry. But I trust her judgment. We ate then we went off to bed. I was promptly woken up with a prod to my side, causing me to jump. "Wake up!" Sophia says to me. Callie and Jude were awake and in the room as well.
"What's going on?" I ask although I feel like I already know what's going to happen.
"We are going to play hide and seek!" Sophia answers. I was right. She's lucky I love this game.
"Let's play." I put my finger on my nose, "Not it!" I was checking reaction times and it seemed like Sophia had the slowest reaction time. "You're it Sophia. What's base?"
"There will be none. We will play till everyone is found. You can move around in your hiding spot." Jude said to me.
"I'll count to 30. This is a spacious place." She closes her eyes and puts her head down on a bed. "1, 2, 3" She said. Jude, Callie and I ran out of our rooms into the living room where Callie took a blanket and hid herself under it on the couch which blended in perfectly. Jude and I ran into Sophia and Callie's room and hid in the closet.
"28, 29, 30!" She said. Jude and I were next to each other buried in clothes. Sophia first checked downstairs. Jude and I were breathing heavily from running down then back up the stairs and I was holding Jude's hand which steady our breaths. Jude then moved his head towards mine and our foreheads connected but not hard. We stood there for a moment until I couldn't take it anymore and I kissed him and pulled him on top of me. Jude, in the moment just kissed back. I bit his lower lip and slipped my tongue into his mouth which he gradually lets in. He lets out a slight moan and I pull back and whisper to him.
"We don't want to get caught right?" Jude nodded his head and he got off of me and snuggled up to me. He yawns.
"Still tired. I'm going to go to sleep. Wake me up when we are found." He whispers to me. At one point I nodded off. When we awoke Sophia and Callie were in bed. I woke Jude and whispered to him.
"We need to go to our beds right now. It's 4 and I don't know when Robert and Jill wakes up." Jude and I creep to our room and go into our respective beds and sleep. When everyone is awake Sophia and Callie stare at us in disbelief as we walk out our rooms. Sophia whispered to me.
"Where were you this whole time?" She didn't actually find us? I whispered back to her.
"We were in your closet." I said to her. She smiles from ear to ear.
"I thought so, I found Callie about 30 seconds after I went downstairs. You guys were impossible to find. When I first checked my closet nothing was out of the ordinary. Callie checked it too and she couldn't find anything."
"We blended in with your clothing." I told her. She nodded her head.
"Makes sense. Let's go eat! Dad made chocolate chip pancakes." I lick my lips and go downstairs to eat. Today we were going back home around 6 so we were going to go back to the lake. I like the Quinn's. They are very nice people. I say to Callie.
"Can we go on another vacation like this with them?" Causing everyone at the table to smile.
A/N: I think Neville made a good first impression on the Quinn's. What do you guys think about that and about what happened to him?
