Chpt.25

Jason looked down at Livy in his arms as she slept.

"Please don't have any nightmares." He whispered as he kissed the top of the girl's head, then laid her down onto her bed.

He walked out of her room, and back to the couch.

"She okay?" Roy questioned.

"She'll be alright." Jason stated as he slumped onto the couch.

His mind wasn't on what stupid show Roy was watching, but on Indira.

I should call her. He thought sadly. Dammit! I can't call her. She'll feel so hurt that after I told her 'don't worry I'll come back' and then about ten years later I decided to give her a call. And I don't even know if she's still living in her parent's house. She's a grown woman now, she probably has a place of her own. A life of her own. Maybe even a husband of her own. Jason could feel his heart sink, but then shook his head.

I just had sex with an Alien yesterday and countless other times. I've moved on. She must have too. He sighed, thinking of the woman.

"Ay dios mio Jason! Another black eye?" Indira questioned as she placed her hand on his face gently, and Jason grabbed her arm. They were at her home. Her parents were working while her brother was out with some friends.

"And what's this giant bruise doing here?" Jason questioned, looking at the bruise skeptically. Indira's brown eyes darted away from Jason's.

"It's nothing." She whispered.

"Just like how that dislocated shoulder last week was nothing?" Jason questioned, and shook his head.

"Don't tell me that you're with that gang again."

"No." Indira stated, shaking her head. "This is actually from…" she let out a sigh. "This is actually from the gang I turned down. They don't really like me much because of it." Indira saw the look on Jason's face and shook her head. "I can handle myself, Jay. Don't worry about me. I'm a tough girl, I'll be fine." Indira smiled, and Jason pulled her into a kiss. He leaned back, making her fall on top of him on the couch as they made out.

"Ugh! Guys!" Indira and Jason broke apart to see their friend, Josh, walk in. Josh was a lanky kid who had long dirty blond hair. He was lazy, and often crashed at Indira's house when he was trying to get away from having to listen to his arguing parents.

"Josh, why is it that you always ruin the best moments." Indira grumbled.

"'Cuz I'm a pain in the ass like that." Josh shrugged as he walked towards the kitchen. "Do you have any Coke, you were out last week."

Jason snapped out of his thoughts. Josh. Josh probably still lived with his parents. He could contact him!

Jason quickly picked up the phone and dialed Josh's number.

"Hello?" questioned a voice.

"Hey, Josh?" Jason questioned.

"Yeah, who's this?"

"It's Jason." Jason grinned.

"YOU SON OF A BITCH! YOU STUPID BASTARD! DON'T CALL ME AGAIN!" Josh screamed and Jason frowned when the line went dead.

Was Josh really that mad at him for not contacting him in so long?

"So… they didn't sound to happy. Whoever they were." Roy informed from the couch.

"Shouldn't you be watching idiots from Jersey getting drunk." Jason growled, and Roy understood that Jason did not want to talk about it.

Jason needed to forget about Indira, and Josh. He hated having his past on his mind. He needed something to do.

He headed towards the door, and Roy looked over at him.

"Where're you going?" he questioned.

"I'm going to take a walk on the beach." Jason stated.

"D'you know how many chicks you'll pick up if you told them you like long walks on the beach." Roy laughed. Jason shot the man a glare, but didn't waste any of his breath on him, leaving.

It's been two weeks that I've been on this Island and I already feel like I'm trying to settle down. I hate it. This is only going to be a vacation. Then I'll take Livy someplace that needs my help, make sure Roy gets straightened out, and do something with Kor'i, and then everything will be back to normal. Jason thought to himself as he walked along the beach, his toes feeling the coolness of the sand.

He decides to lay down on the sand, and instead of forgetting about Indira, he slips into sleep and starts to dream about her.

"Bajita, we're here." Jason whispered. Indira heard him, but didn't move a muscle from her comfortable position in the car seat.

"Indira." Jason whispered, slightly louder. She grunted and kept her eyes closed as Jason lightly started to shake her shoulders.

"C'mon Indi, you gotta get up."

"errrrrrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmm." She mumbled, and remained still.

It was silent for a moment, but the next thing Indira knew, she felt something in her ear.

"Ah!" she screamed as she jumped. The girl looked over at Jason, who had a smug smile on his face, and scowled.

"Did you just put your tongue in my ear?" she questioned, and Jason leaned over and kissed her cheek.

"It was the only way to get you up." He answered smugly. Indira sighed as she curled up more in her seat.

"Jay, I'm really tired. I hardly slept at all."

"You can always sleep tomorrow." Jason smirked as he got out of the car. Indira didn't move.

Next thing she knew, Jason opened her car door, unbuckled her seat belt, and pulled her out of the car, carrying her bridal style.

"Jason." She whined, bur he started to spin her around, and he smiled when he felt Indira's hands clutching onto him tightly.

He stopped spinning to look down at Indira. Her curly dark brown hair was pulled into a pony tail, and her darker skin tone was slightly lighter than her brown eyes. To Jason, he was holding the most beautiful girl in the universe.

"Are you awake now?" Jason questioned with a smile.

"No." Indira informed with a chuckle as she curled up into his chest. Jason loved the feeling, but they were here for a reason.

"Then you leave me no choice." Indira looked up at him, confused, and Jason started to run.

She could smell the salt air getting stronger, and Indira's eyes widened as she noticed that he was running to the ocean.

"Wait! Jay, I'm awake! See? Awake!" Indira exclaimed frantically, but Jason kept running, and held tightly onto her as she struggled.

Jason reached the ocean and ran waist deep into the water.

Indira clutched onto him as tight as she could, but he clawed her off swiftly and lifted her over his head.

"Jay! No!" she exclaimed and he laughed.

"One! Two! Three!" with that, he threw her foreword and she sunk into the ocean, the cold water making her hair stand on end.

"Sorry Bajita, but you gave me no choice." Jason smirked. Indira dug her hands into the wet sand and then chucked it at him. it hit Jason square in the face.

"You didn't do that." He growled, while Indira smiled at him innocently.

"I kinda did." She chuckled.

"Oh, you're going to regret that." Jason chucked some sand at Indira, and it pegged her on the shoulder.

"This is war." Indira growled, and wet sand was lobbed back and forth between the two.

After thirty minutes of fighting, Jason tackled her, and quickly pulled her out of the water so he didn't drown her. He wrapped his arms around Indira's body tightly.

"Alright Jay, let me go." She sighed.

"I don't want to." Jason whispered in her ear as he dragged her out of the water onto the beach. He dropped to the ground, with Indira laying on top of him.

"Jason…"

"Shhh. Calm down Indi. Relax, and listen to the ocean." He smiled. Indira took in a deep breath, and her body relaxed. Jason could hold her in his arms forever if he had the choice.

"Bajita, you comfortable?" he questioned in a soft voice.

"Yes." She answered as she kissed him on the cheek. "This is nice." she smiled.

"I knew you'd like it." Jason grinned as he ran his fingers through her damp hair.

"It almost reminds me of Puerto Rico." Jason nibbled on her ear and nuzzled her neck.

"We should go there someday. Together." He smiled, and she smiled back.

"Yeah, that'd be great."

"Indira." Jason whispered.

"Hmmm?"

"I love you." The words were so serious when he said them. They were like a promise that would never be broken.

"I love you too." She smiled.

"Jason?" the man opened his eyes to see Livy staring down at him with worry.

"Yeah, what is it?" he inquired, rubbing his head.

"You've been out for hours. We thought you got hurt." Livy informed as she helped the man to his feet.

Jason forgot that he fell asleep on the beach, and judging by the sun, he'd been out for a very long time.

"Sorry for worrying you guys. I didn't realize I was out this long." Jason informed as he held Livy's hand.

"As long as you're alright now." Livy answered with a smile.

"Hey Livy?"

"Yeah?"

"Have you ever heard of Puerto Rico?" Jason inquired, and the young girl nodded.

"Yes. I have." She grinned. Jason smiled at the girl.

"I'm going to take you there someday."
