Chapter 10

"Jimmy, this view is amazing," she exclaimed while he led her closer to the water. "The placid water makes everything so peaceful, and the full moon is a perfect shade of luminous blue." she stated as they stood at the end of the beach, looking out over the lake. "Is this where you wanted to take me?" she asked with the curiosity of a little girl. He just chuckled at her question.

"No, but we're close," he told her and turned his head away from her to look down the beach. "Look," he ordered as he pointed into the distance. She peered around his large head to see a small inflamed light in the distance, just down the beach. "That's were I'm taking you," he said and gently squeezed her hand as he began leading her towards the light. In the moonlight, the young teens seemed to be in total bliss strolling down the lakeside, hand in hand and gently swinging their arms in unison with each step. Jimmy tried to keep his eyes off her, but in the end his hormones, along with his love for the blond, overpowered him. To him she looked wonderful in her showy black dress. And her hair captivated him.

"You're beautiful," he murmured before he could stop himself and she halted in mid-stride, just staring into the distance, like she was watching the world end. Ever so slowly and naturally with his free hand, he tucked a loose curl behind her ear, gazing at her with half-closed eyes and a dreamy expression. And even slower she spun her head to stare into his sparkling sapphire eyes. He was caught off guard when she narrowed her eyes, as if trying to read him.

"Is that all I am to you, Neutron? A pretty face," she demanded, piercing her nicely manicured nails into the soft skin of his hand as her tightened facial expression molded into the deadly glare he knew all too well. His dazed expression soon vanished as he winced in pain. He closed his eyes for a few seconds, concentrating and trying to clarify his thoughts. He took a few deep breaths and eased his breathing before speaking.

"No! Don't you get it, Vortex! I thought I already told you this! You're more!" he exclaimed bringing his face seriously close to hers, causing her to lean back a little. She was slightly taken by this, but her surprised look quickly changed.

"Oh really?" she asked, giving him a mischievous smirk. "Then prove it." she ordered as he reclined himself back, returning a similar smirk but with a hint of aggravation.

"Don't you worry," he told her just as he began pulling her rather roughly down the beach, towards the flickering light in the distance. "I will," he said a bit more quietly and continued dragging her towards this so called 'secret spot '.

Oh, what's next? Where is he taking her? Huh? I seem to have forgotten. (j/k) Sorry for the short chapter. Till next time!
