Chapter 3: Pool Fun and Getting Together

"Sounds fun, but you are crazy for wearing those heels," I replied as I took a look at her crazy high heels, I shook my head at the ridiculousness of her shoes. "So what kind of swim suit do you have, should I prepare an arsenal to protect myself?" She giggled with a shrug as she looked at me. Her giggle was kind of cute and made me want to smile.

-/- End of School -\-

"Let's NOT take the bus, I can get us there just as well as that stupid bus," She muttered with a glare that was thrown toward the buses. I looked at her with a confused look. "I can levitate more then one person, plus I control wind currents. The bus is full of people and I DO NOT like people." I was skeptical but I didn't think she would suggest it if she couldn't do it. She started muttering curses at the bus and bus drivers, guess she really doesn't like the bus. "So you in or do you want to take the bus?" I nodded.

"Can we stop by my house? I'd prefer to wear my own trunks," I asked as she grabbed my wrist and pulled me toward the edge of the school, I was getting a little nervous the closer we got to the edge of the school. She nodded. "I live at 66 Pine Street." She nodded again before she wrapped her arms around my waist and leaned forward, causing us to topple over the edge of the school. I let out a scream as we fell. She let out a laugh as I wrapped my arms around her tightly, she let go of me and held her arms out, we slowed down a lot. I looked at her and knew I had a scared look on my face; her eyes had changed from the very pretty red to a stunning yellow-orange colour.

"No need to be scared, I've done this plenty of times," She murmured in my ear as we reached an ally that was near my house. She laughed as we landed, we walked out of the ally and I led her toward my house and unlocked the door. I pulled her up to my room and she sat on the bed. I went to my chest of drawers and grabbed a pair of fire red swim trunks. "I live one street over so we can just walk." I nodded and looked at her, silently hoping her swim suit wasn't a bikini. I've already admitted to myself that she was attractive and I was already having to imagine Boomer and Medulla both in Speedos. What can I say? I am a guy after all and she is wearing rather revealing clothing.

"Let's go, I'll write my mom a note telling her where I am," I muttered as I packed a bag with my trunks and a towel before I grabbed her arm and pulled her back out of my room and into the living room. I grabbed a pen and a piece of paper, wrote: Went to a friend's house, have my phone; I put the note on the coffee table. "So what street do you live on? There are two to the sides of me." She giggled again; we walked back out side and waited for her to tell me.

"Evermore Drive number 666, I know it's at the other end of the street but I like the walk," She replied as she looked at me with brilliant blue eyes. 'Damn she has interesting eyes, first they were red, then a yellow-orange colour, now they're blue. And DAMN they are really pretty too.' I thought as she grabbed my wrist and we walked down the street, the houses on her end of Evermore were really nice and on the large side. "I think my parents may know who your dad is." I smiled gently as she moved closer to me, she was freezing again.

"Here," I stated as I took my coat off and handed it to her. She looked at it and shook her head. "Why not? It won't bite you, you're freezing." She stopped walking and grabbed my hand in her freezing one; I powered up to try and warm her up.

"It won't help, when I get like this I need fire and heat," She mumbled as she looked at me with a serious expression. "So yes I wear jackets, but it's only so people don't question my sanity. My dad says it's because I control fire, hence the heat, but I don't control ice, which would balance out the heat but I could eventually and that's why I'm freezing.

"Guess we'll be real close then," I replied quietly as she moved a little closer to me. 'I have NEVER been like this around anyone let alone a girl what the FUCK is wrong with me?' I asked myself as she nodded and we started walking again.

-/- A few minutes later -\-

"Well here we are 666 Evermore," I mumbled quietly as she pulled a key out of her shirt and opened the door. 'Wow.' Was all that came to mind, her house was huge, well not mansion big but it was two stories (that's big to me, I live in a 5 room apartment). "So should we do homework first or what?" She nodded and grabbed my hand; she wasn't freezing this time, and pulled me up the stairs and down the hall toward a door. "Is this your room?" She nodded and opened the door.

"So let's get this homework out of the way then we can have some fun in the pool," She stated as she moved to allow me through. 'Of course, red and black, fits her perfectly.' I thought as I walked in and sat on the bed, it had red sheets and a black blanket, she followed me and sat down next to me. "We don't have much, just reading for Mad Science and the same for Hero History." I nodded, she pulled her messenger bag strap over her head and opened it, she pulled out her History book and began reading the five pages we had. I pulled out both my Science and History books.

-/- 45 minutes later -\-

"Hate homework," I muttered as I put my books back into my back pack. "So what now?" She got up and walked over to her dresser and opened it.

"Pool time, you can change in my bathroom, right over there on the left," She replied, pointing to one of two doors, as she knelt down in front of the dresser. I nodded and grabbed my bag; I got up and walked into the bathroom. I kept my shirt on and changed into my trunks, keeping my socks on as well. I knocked on the door, hoping she was ready. "Come on in." I opened the door and walked back into her room to find her still kneeling, dressed in her clothes from school, but she'd taken off her crazy boots, that was it. I saw a small pile of clothes next to her and a swim suit in her hand. "Just trying to find the right suit." I nodded as she got up and turned to look at me. "I'll go change, be right back." I nodded and sat on her bed. She walked into the bathroom.

-/- 5 minutes later -\-

She walked out in a bikini top and a skirted bottom, I was thanking god that it wasn't an actual bikini. "I like your suit," I stated quietly as she adjusted her towel on her arm. I looked her up and down, her top was red with black stitched stars and the bottom was white which confused me greatly until she shifted and I saw a strip of red. 'Oh god the skirt is just a cover.' I thought as she opened her door and motioned for me to follow her. I followed her as she led me down the main stairs and down another set of stairs that were behind a door. She grabbed my hand as a door closed.

"I'm home my little rain storm!" Someone, a female, called from upstairs. Tempest slipped back past me, pulling me back up the few stairs we had gone down. "Where are you Tempest?" We walked back out onto the main floor of the house.

"Right here mom, yes we finished our homework," Tempest replied as she pulled me out with her. "Mom this is Warren Peace, son of Barron Battle, Warren this is my mom Natasha Finnigan." I nodded and held out my hand, she took my hand and I was pulled into a hug. 'Oh god, I'm being hugged.' I thought as she let go. "We're just going swimming mom don't worry." Mrs. Finnigan nodded and Tempest pulled me back down stairs. "Sorry about her hugging you."

"It's fine, my mom would do the same to you," I replied as we reached the bottom of the stairs. She opened the door and pulled me into the basement. She nodded and smiled at me. "So am I going to meet your dad as well?" She shrugged and pulled me to where there was a pool, maybe ten feet by fifteen feet, she let go of my hand and walked right to the pools edge. She dropped her towel, untied the knot on the side of the skirt. "Are you trying to kill me?" I followed her and dropped my bag before pulling my shirt off.

"Sorry, I'm usually the only one here, this is the only swim suit I own that covers me completely," She replied quietly as she sat on the edge of the pool and then got in the pool. "Come on in, the water's warm." I nodded and followed her example and got in the pool. I saw Tempest start floating on the water. "You're obviously trying to kill me as well; you're built like a freaking GOD." I smirked as I walked over to her, the water was only four feet deep, and put a hand on her shoulder, she started sinking and thrashing around. "DAMNIT PEACE, don't do that."

"I wouldn't let anything happen to you Tempest," I muttered with a growl, she shivered, as I steadied her. "You're fine." She nodded as she wrapped her arms around me. I liked the feeling of her holding me, it felt nice. "How deep does the pool go?" She looked at me with a smile as she let go of me, used a hot air current to dry her hair and pulled it into a braid that ended with a black hair tie. I looked at her and chuckled as she dipped under the water.

"Six feet at the deepest," I heard from behind me, I turned around and came face to face with one soaking wet Tempest. "I know you wouldn't let anything hurt me, you're obviously attracted to me or you wouldn't have made the comment that I'm trying to kill you about my swim suit." I felt my mouth drop open as she smirked; I pushed water at her and dropped under the water level. "You don't want to play that game Warren, I control water remember?" She chuckled as she raised her hand and the water around me rose a few inches.

"You can't prove any attraction I may or may not have toward you," I replied after I popped up out of the water. "I will admit that you ARE attractive, but any guy can see that, ANY guy would make that comment. Perhaps it is YOU who is obviously attracted to ME since you said and I quote 'You're obviously trying to kill me as well, you look like a freaking GOD'." I smirked and saw her blushing before she dove under water.

"All right, you caught me," She started after she popped up right in front of me. "I find you VERY appealing physically; you are a gorgeous, sexy, fuckable man." I stared at her with my mouth open. "I've said too much, I'll be under water." I pulled her up and hugged her, something that shocked both of us. I held her as she struggled. "Umm… can you let go?" I let go and watched her, her blush grew before she kissed my cheek and then disappeared under the water. 'Well that's interesting.' I thought as I tried to find her.

"I like you too by the way," I replied as I found her, she popped up behind me and kissed me as I turned around. I kissed her back but pulled away when I heard the door slam.

"TEMPEST!" Came a masculine voice from the base of the stairs.

"Yes daddy?" She called as she looked toward the door. 'She calls her dad daddy? Oh yes very bad ass.' I thought as I looked at her. "Did you need something?" A man came into the room and nodded.

"Your mother says you've got a boy down here," He replied as he looked at us. She nodded.
