CLARY POV:
"DRIVE FASTER JACE" I demanded. I swear he was driving like an old lady.
"Geez Clary, you need to calm down" he scolded.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm just so excited to see Jen" I muttered.
"I know you haven't shut up about it for the past half an hour" he mumbled.
"I heard that Jace, geez you old lady" I said as I gazed outside of the window.
We've been driving for 30 minutes and I was dying to surf again. I mean my first experience was amazing and I couldn't wait to see Jen again. I called her up and asked her if she wanted to catch some waves and she agreed and gave me an address to a secluded beach with "Choice Waves" as she put it. I just couldn't wait to have my adrenaline pumping again as I cascaded down a wave.
I'm also excited that Jace will be there with me. He never surfed before so this is gonna be his first time, I'm glad I get to be the one he's gonna experience it with.
I jumped out of my thoughts when the car abruptly stopped on the side of the rode next to the ocean.
"Here" Jace sang.
"Finally!" I cheered as I flew out of the car running to the back to grab my beach stuff, Jace just followed me laughing.
I was wearing on a plain black two piece bikini and Jace had one just a pair of red surf shorts that rested low on his hips. God his abs got to me all the time, all I wanted to do was trace his muscles with my hand. I caught myself just staring at him.
"Like what you see love?" he asked with a smirk
Another car pulled up behind us and parked.
"Hey Clare!" Jen yelled getting out of the passenger seat running to me.
"Jen!" I yelled running into her open arms.
"Long time no see girlie" she said as she pulled back from our hug.
"I know right?" I laughed.
She looked at Jace.
"Oh Jen, this is my boyfriend Jace" I said with a smile.
"Nice to meet ya Jace" she said stretching out her hand to shake.
"Same to you" he said with a grin.
"Oh that reminds me, Clary that is my fiancé Ryan" she said as a handsome guy with black tousled hair came out of the driver's seat with 2 pairs of rash guards in hand.
"Hi Ryan, it's nice to meet you" I said shaking his hand.
"It's nice to meet you too" he said shaking my hand.
"Hey man, the names Jace" Jace said giving the guy a sort of handshake hug thing.
Guys are so weird.
"Ryan" he said as he handed Jace and I the rash guards.
"Uh, what are these for?" Jace asked. God he is such a newbie. What am I saying? So am I, I giggled.
"It's to protect your body" I answered. "Sometimes the rubbing against the surfboard can cause your skin to become irritated and well develop a rash, hence the name rash guard" I laughed.
Ryan and Jen laughed too.
Jace looked slightly embarrassed, but replied "Oh, yea I knew that"
"Sure you did Jace" I said with a laugh. He eyed me down glaring at me but I shrugged it off and gave him a light kiss on his nose.
"I hate you" he muttered as I turned around to walk to the back of Jen and Ryan's car to grab the boards.
"I love you too" I added as Jen helped me get the boards.
"Okay follow me guys" Jen said as she walked over to the beach.
It was strange. There was an ocean but it was below us. Maybe there was a secret entrance or something. We walked and walked until we came to the edge of the cliffs. I peered down and my stomach started to do some flips. I really hope we aren't doing what I think we are gonna do.
"Okay guys! We're here" Jen said as she walked over to the ledge.
"What do you mean we're here?!" Jace shouted.
"We aren't gonna jump off are we?" asked.
"Of course we are silly! You see those waves?" She asked pointed out the ocean.
A few meters ahead there were some crazy swells happening, the waves look gorgeous.
"Yea?" Jace croaked.
"Well those are probably the best waves ever, and to get there all we have to do is jump and paddle to it" Jen answered as she and Ryan went closer to the edge.
"But aren't we gonna, I don't know die!?" Jace screamed.
I grabbed his hand, trying to calm his nerves.
"No, you just have to time it right. When a wave comes make sure you jump on top of it, not in front of it, or else your body will be slammed onto the cliffs and then you'll die" she spoke as if it was the easiest thing in the world.
"Oh hell no! I am not doing this" Jace said as he turned around.
"Jace, come on" I pleaded grabbing his arms and turning him back to me.
"Clary, we could die!" he said gazing into my eyes.
"Not if we plan it right" I said with a reassuring smile.
"But what if we don't. What if I lose you" he said hanging his head down.
That's what this is about. He's not scared for himself; he's scared for my safety.
"Jace, it's okay. You won't lose me" I said as I cupped his cheek.
"Clary" he whispered as he put down his board and brought me into a hug.
"I don't know what I'd do without you" he said as he tightened his grip on me.
I felt like I was melting into his arms, I really loved this guy.
I Pulled back and looked him in the eyes.
"Jace, I know you're worried but don't be... I know I'll die one day, but that day is not today. So let's do this. Together" I said as I pulled his arm walking over to the cliffs. He grabbed his board and stood next to me.
Jen and Ryan jumped first and landed in the water. A few seconds later they emerged and began to paddle out.
I squeezed Jace's hand.
"Ready?" I asked looking at him.
"With you? Always" he said with a smile.
"Okay guys! I'll tell you when to jump" Ryan shouted from below.
"READY….. SET….. JUMP"
Jace and I quickly jumped with our boards in hand, we never let go of each other's hands until we hit the water.
Underwater everything looked so beautiful, nice and clear so you could see everything. The water was nice and refreshing, not to cold and not to warm. Just perfect.
I paddled up and broke the surface.
Jace did too; he was right next to me flipping his golden hair back.
"Wasn't that fun!" I squealed as I paddled with Jace to Jen and Ryan.
"Surprisingly yea" he said.
We all paddled a few meters ahead of us getting away from the cliffs.
The channel opened up and beside the cliff there was a nice secluded beach.
"You ready Jace?" I asked as a set approached.
"No!" he said as he started to paddle alongside me.
"Okay, now follow exactly what I do" I shouted as the wave approached.
We paddled then as we were about to go over the wave I took off.
He followed exactly what I did.
I rode out of the tube all the way to the beach and turned around looking for Jace.
He wasn't there.
"Oh shit!" I yelled as I paddled back out.
"Jace? JACE!?" I shouted frantically looking for him.
He popped out a few feet in front of me.
"Jace are you okay? It looked like you had the pounding of your life" Jen said as she paddled to him.
"Let me just say this. I HATE surfing" he snarled.
I just began to laugh; he turned around and looked at me with a smirk.
"Oh, so your laughing at me is you Clarissa?" he asked inching his way closer to me.
"Uh, no" I giggled.
"I can see where this is going, let's go catch some waves Ry" Jen said as they both paddled away from us. She threw back a quick wink before she left.
"TRAITOR!" I yelled.
Jace was right in front of me now sitting on his board.
"Hi" I said calmly.
He dove into the water and began to circle around me.
I sat up and tried to look through the water to find him. But I couldn't.
Oh god, it felt like jaws or something.
"Jace?" I whispered peering into the water. I leaned to the water on my right side.
Then I felt something shoot up and pull my left leg causing me to fall in the water.
I shot up breaking surface to hear him laughing.
"You suck!" I said catching my breath.
"Now we are even" he said making his way to me, covering me with his arms.
"Whatever" I said as I leaned into his chest wrapping my legs around his waist so I didn't have to tread water anymore.
"Geez Clary" he said
"What?" I asked looking up to him
"You are so distracting! I don't think I can handle you being this close to me with little to no clothes on" he whispered as his face started to turn red.
"Oh really?" I laughed putting my arms around his neck and using one of my hands to twirl his hair in my fingers.
"Clary" he whispered.
I just leaned in and kissed him.
It was meant to be a soft, light, quick kiss, but it didn't end up that way.
The way he kissed was different from before. It was like he was waiting forever to kiss me, maybe it was us being this close and in such a beautiful area or maybe lust. The kiss grew more and more passionate.
I knew it needed to stop before other things began to happen.
I pulled back to see him pouting and breathing heavily.
I chuckled.
"Clary? Why'd you pull back?" he asked.
"Because, it was getting kind of heated" I said with a grin.
"And you don't want heat?" he asked putting his arms around my waist.
"Nope!" I said as I pulled out of his embrace and got back on my board.
"CLARY!" he shouted getting on his board.
"If you want another one" I yelled, "then you have got to out surf me" I continued as I paddled away.
"Oh you are ON!" he yelled racing me to get the next wave.
*2 hours later*
CLARY POV:
It was incredible; Jace looked like he was a god dam pro! I feel like there is something he isn't telling me I thought as we walked back to our car.
"I got to admit Jace, you are really good" I said as we waved good bye to Jen and Ryan.
"Oh I know" he said handing me a towel to dry off.
"You do?" I asked.
"Yup, I guess I forgot to mention that I am really good skateboarder. And skateboarding is kind of similar to surfing" he said with a smirk.
"So" he said grabbing me by the waist.
"So?" I asked wrapping my arms around his neck.
"What about that bet from earlier? I clearly won" he whispered leaning closer to me.
"You son of a bitch, you set me up didn't you!?"
"Maybe, maybe not?" he smiled.
"Dammit" I cursed.
"Where's my prize?" he asked as he was centimeters away from my lips.
"Fine, you win" I said as I gave in leaning in to meet his lips.
