Morning was beginning to prevail in Tree Hill, as the sun appeared, slowly brightening up the small town. Everything that had happened in the dark of the night had diminished as a new day took its place. All except the two teens on the River Court table. Nathan and Jill were still in the same spot they were in the night before except Jill was in a more comfortable position. She was now on her stomach lying on the table while Nathan sat beside her, one leg crossed with the other resting on the bench below. After their night together, it seemed like they knew each other, in a mysterious but understanding way. They exposed their hearts to one another, sharing their stories and secrets that not too many people heard about. It wasn't like they offered it out to the world before, but with them alone they felt it was safe enough to spill it.
The sun was half way up. Nathan still in his half Buddha position looked down at the lying girl. She looked better than she did in the dark. Her black hair was indeed black with a reddish hue to it. He was usually attracted to blondes but she seemed to be an exception as well as Haley who had auburn hair. Although, he preferred Haley better with the blonde hair she sported during the summer. Looking at her legs he noticed her skin was tanned, but not a fake bake tan, more natural. Suddenly, catching a glimpse into her eyes, he noticed that the dark eyes he saw the night before were in fact pearl blue. Wow. He never saw that combination before: black hair and blue eyes. Was that even possible seeing as dominant traits and genes in science explained how the two didn't mix, but she had it? Guess science doesn't have all the answers he thought, however he knew she was a mix of something because her eyes said it all. He just didn't know what though.
"Hey it's morning. You ok down there?" he laughed, "Not bored of me yet are you?"
She smiled, "Nope! I just like lying like this."
It was her turn to analyze the boy in front of her. He was a hottie indeed. Examining his dark brown tousled hair, it wasn't long. Thank goodness because long hair gave her the creeps, yet it wasn't short. She liked guys with shaved heads and knew if he were to shave his head, he'd look pretty hot. Moving down to his face structure. It was all good. She smiled inside. What a package this boy was. He had a nice slim build, with a cute smile, and real entrancing crimson blue eyes.
Noticing her approving look Nathan grinned.
"What are you grinning about buddy?" She replied displaying a small grin of her own.
"Nothing, it's just that I feel like I've known you for so long when really we only met last night."
"Yeah, same. I don't think I even got your name?"
Noticing she was right, "It's Nathan."
Slowly getting up from her position and fixing her skirt, "I umm better get going before I miss my train yet again." Her 'yet again' embellished by sarcasm.
She began to walk away before turning around and catching his eyes once more, "It was nice meeting you Nathan. I'll umm see you around... maybe," and with that leaving a smile she left, disappearing down the street.
Nathan stared after her until she was completely out of sight. He was in some sort of trance, still trying to recollect everything that had happened. A couple of minutes later, he himself decided to get up and head for home. He'd been gone all night.
