Sirius, James, and Remus were playing in the water, dunking each other
under and such. Lily, Alyssa and I were sitting on our towels bathing in
the sun. I was watching Sirius, he was so sexy, it amazed me how he could
steal my heart away. I loved Conner but Sirius was the there and now. But
he wasn't a sure deal. Not something I was looking for. I needed something
real and I would wait however long it takes. I looked up from Sirius to
Alyssa who was standing and wiping the sand off her butt. She was wearing a
purple bikini. It looked cute on her. It defined her figure and brought out
her boobs. Over the small amount of time that we had to ourselves in the
beginning of summer she really changed. She wasn't the mousy baggy clothed
athletic girl they all once knew. She was becoming more of a woman. Lily
was sleeping, or her eyes were shut at least.
"Where are you going?" I asked. Alyssa looked back at me. I had to cover my eyes with my hand to see her. She pointed to a group of boys at the far end.
"I thought I would take a walk." She said mischievously. I laughed and rolled my eyes. She was going to pick up guys. So unlike her, but then again, she hasn't been herself lately. She started to walk that way but before she could make it Remus grabbed her by the knees and lifted her into the air. He was so strong and masculine. It was amazing. His hair and his face looked that of an older man but his body was that of a young boys. Alyssa started to scream for help. I would have helped her but I was just too lazy. All that driving took a huge toll on me. It's hard driving on that winding road and wanting to lay back and relax. Lily stirred next to me.
"Lils?" I asked. She opened her eyes and gave me a questioning look.
"Just wanted to see if you were awake." I said. She nodded and yawned at the same time.
"Yeah, cant fall asleep in this heat, I don't want sunburn." She said. I nodded. People with red hair always seemed to get burnt more server then others.
"Hey, do you think Alyssa has changed?" I asked. Lily sat up leaning on her elbows. She watched the boys tossing Alyssa around and playfully dunking her.
"Definitely. I mean she seems more." Lily couldn't find the right word for it but I nodded, I knew.
"Girlish? Mature? Grown-up?" I said throwing suggestions out there. Lily nodded to each one.
"Not that it's a bad thing, it's just not how we know her." Lily said. Ashleigh understood. After all Lily had been friends with Alyssa long before I entered the picture.
"Yeah, I know what you mean." I said. The boys came running up to us.
"Come on, get in the water, its great." Sirius said he tossed his hair back and out of his eyes. God, he was too sexy. I just wanted to his him.
"No, that's ok." I said and lay back down. Sirius wouldn't take no for an answer. He grabbed my feet and pulled me up against him. For a second I didn't resist because our skin was touching but then I realized he was pulling me toward the icy water.
"No!" I screamed and I hit his chest with my fists. He just pulled me closer into him. His natural fragrance hit me like a wave. It was intoxicating. He entered the water and he was still venturing out. We were in to wear it was up to my chest. The water was so cold that I was shivering from head to toe. And I kept trying to kick him but he would pull back and splash me. I splashed him back and it continued into an ongoing fight. Then a wave hit, crashing over my head and pulling me under. My body twists and turned. I felt like a beanbag hitting the sand and then hitting Sirius and the rocks on the other side. They were small pebbles but to land on them hard was excruciatingly painful. When I finally gathered myself enough to come up for air. Sirius was already there.
"Are you ok?" He asked pulling me up and out of the water. I felt limp in his hands. My arms and legs hurt. My back felt like it cracked into two and my neck was stinging. He put his arm around my knees and back and lifted me out of the water. I didn't resist this time. I hurt too much to do anything.
He set me down onto the towel I was originally on. He sat there with a concerned look on his face. I was drying myself off. My knees were skinned that was the only visible damage. But inside my wounds felt much worse.
"I am so sorry. I didn't mean for that to happen." Sirius said. I nodded. I knew he didn't. I wasn't watching the waves. It was my fault.
"No, it wasn't your fault. I know you didn't mean it. I wasn't watching. Stupid me." I said laughing at myself. He grinned a small grin, but nonetheless it was still there.
"I think I am just going to sit here for awhile." I said. Sirius nodded and left to join the rest. A lifeguard with a yellow lifesaver came running my way. He was cute, his hair was a sandy blonde and he was very built. His eyes were a bright green.
"Hey. I saw you fall out there. Are you ok?" He asked me. I slightly nodded. I couldn't speak. He peeked at my knees and shook his head.
"Come on, I'll fix you right up." He said leading me the lifeguard tower. Inside there was a radio, a personal bag, a seat and a first aid kit. He set me down in his chair. Setting the first aid kit down on the floor, he knelt on one knee to get to my knees. He rubbed some alcohol on the cuts.
"Ow." I said wincing. It stunk. He smiled his smile was gorgeous. Oh, the beauty of lifeguards.
"Oh, you big baby. It doesn't hurt that much." He said. I thought he was flirting. Maybe he was. I'll just flirt back.
"You put that on your cut knee and see how it feels." I told him. He quietly chuckled and continued to clean my knee.
"So what's your name?" I asked him. He looked up and stared me straight in the eye. His eyes were a brilliant green that made me think of Lily.
"Travis. And yours?" He asked. My name? What was my name? Allie, Amy, Oh that's right Ashleigh.
"Ashleigh." I said kind of dorkingly. He smiled again. God, his smile.
"Nice to meet you Ashleigh." He said.
"Like wise." Now, I was flirting with him. I did more body language then actual talking.
"Visitor?" He asked me. I nodded meekly.
"Where do you come from?" He asked.
"Well, I was born here, but I just came from England, I have been there for about a year." I said. He nodded. I wonder how old this guy was.
"I take it that you're not a visitor." I said. He shook his head no.
"Yeah, you don't get many visitors who take on lifeguard jobs on their vacation." I said. He nodded laughing.
"Well, you are all fixed up." He said. I smiled.
"Thanks." I said a girl with long blonde hair and bright blue eyes walked in.
"Hey Travis. Aren't you supposed to be on duty?" The girl asked.
"I was just fixing up this young girl, she wiped out and scraped her knee." Travis said giving the girl a welcome kiss and hug. Young girl? I was nearly 17! What gave him the right to call me young girl? I was mad. I found this nice, cute guy who was flirting back and he calls me a young girl. Bastard. That was probably his girlfriend anyway. Didn't matter I had a chance with a lot of guys this vacation. Any number of them.
I left the tower rather sulking. I didn't like the fact that he thought of me as a young girl. I wasn't a young girl. I was a woman. I checked my watch. It was time for me to get dinner and bring it down here. The barbeque pit was going to be used as our bon-fire. I walked back to the condo. It was muggy inside the place. I opened all the windows. I felt so alone. I wanted Conner to be there. Conner, I could talk to him. But how? Do I have to go to sleep? Can I just concentrate? I tried to concentrate. Conner. Conner.. Conner.Conner. I was soon surrounded by mist, a tingling mist that went through my bones. Conner. Conner. Conner. Conner. And then I was in a room, a blue room with white bunnies on the wall. Conner. Conner. Conner. Conner. And there he was. He was standing in front of me. Watching me. And then a strong arm shook me.
"Ah!" I yelled. The arm pulled back suddenly.
"What the hell!" I said. Sirius was standing in front of me.
"I wanted to make sure that you were still alive." He said. I rubbed my face with my hands. I needed some sleep. But not now. It was getting dark. I looked around and then I looked out the window, down on the beach, Lily, Alyssa and James were holding the fire pit that we were going to use. Remus came bounding toward them carrying firewood.
"I am alive." I said bitterly. He stood there awkwardly. I wanted to kiss him. I wanted to break down into tears. I wanted to be back in Conner's arms again. Sirius could feel my pain and pulled me into a hug. I wanted him so bad. Why did he have to be a player? I needed his touch. I needed his love. But then again he would only break my heart.
Passion hit them both at once, it was like they were both keeping it pent up and they pined to be satisfied. Everyone was down on the beach and I could easily tell them that we got caught up in a fight or whatever. Nothing big. My heart was beating fast and I could feel Sirius' do the same. I looked up and the light in the kitchen lighted his face. His eyes were somber. He wanted this just as much as I did. It was mutual. He was passion hungry too. I put my arms around his neck and pulled his head down. I was going to make the first move.
"Where are you going?" I asked. Alyssa looked back at me. I had to cover my eyes with my hand to see her. She pointed to a group of boys at the far end.
"I thought I would take a walk." She said mischievously. I laughed and rolled my eyes. She was going to pick up guys. So unlike her, but then again, she hasn't been herself lately.
