Chapter 6

Flashback

"Where're you going Salem?" Gage Redstone asked his teenage daughter.

"Oh just to see one of my friends" Salem grinned, she was wearing a pair of tight torn faded grey skinny jeans, an old ratty Iron Maiden t-shirt and red converse running shoes. Her long black hair was teased up slightly at the back, but other than that it was normal. She wore just a tinge of smoky grayish black eyeliner.

Gage frowned, since when did Salem have friends? "Who is this friend? Are they from Brownlee?"

"Well his name is Jasper and he's from Grandview, but he's really nice and all" Salem smiled lightly, not wanting to look too enthusiastic or Gage might not let her go.

"Oh a boy" trilled Emily Redstone from the kitchen.

"Since when do you have a boyfriend" laughed Sadie Redstone from the armchair. Sadie was beautiful, with unmarred skin, and flowing butt length hair. Her face called for not an ounce of makeup.

"He's not my boyfriend" Salem snapped, rolling her brown black eyes in pure annoyance. "I'm outta here" she growled stomping out the front door just slightly angry. But her mood lifted when she seen Jasper sitting on the same fallen tree as yesterday.

"Salem" he said softly turning to her, he looked even more beautiful if that were possible.

"Hello Jasper" Salem smiled, jauntily jogging to the tree and sitting her slight slim body down. "So whadaya wanna do today?"

"Hmm" Jasper thought "It's quite hot today, would you like to go swimming?"

"I'd like that alot" Salem grinned "Only I don't have a swimsuit, and I really don't wanna go back home"

"Salem" Jasper glowered playfully "Who needs a suit? I'm sure you're wearing something under your clothes"

"Well okay, I don't see anything wrong with that" Salem shrugged, standing up "Where to?"

"Why Brownlee Lake of course" Jasper said cocking an eyebrow.

"Only half an hour from my home, I sure hope that Peyton and Sadie aren't there" Salem sighed and they began walking in the direction of Brownlee Lake.

"And here we are" Jasper announced about an hour later. The walk had been uneventful, only chatter about school and life. Jasper unbuttoned the front of his black shirt and tossed it to the ground in one fluid motion. Salem couldn't keep her eyes off of his lovely body. She pulled off her Iron Maiden t-shirt and threw it down beside his, and then she ever so slowly slipped out of her jeans. Her undergarments consisted of a black bra and tight black boxer shorts. Jasper wore only black silk boxers. He stepped into the water and dipped his head beneath the surface. He came out of the water, his black hair straight and flat against the sides of his face, his ivory body dripping with water. "Aren't you coming?" he asked, his green eyes sparkling beautifully.

"Of course, I'm just…not a great swimmer" Salem sighed, looking down at him.

"I'll catch you" Jasper smiled gently. "I promise Salem"

Salem took a wary step towards the water and then jumped in with her eyes closed tight. When she opened her eyes she was staring at Jasper's face. "You caught me" she smiled

"I promised didn't I?" he laughed nonchalantly, one of his hands was on her waist and the other curled up over her back. Salem nodded, at a loss for words, and breathed in his heavenly scent.

"Mmm, you smell so good" she whispered, leaning her face against his neck. Jasper chuckled; his cheek was pressed against her flowing hair, black with red undertones. "And" she said trailing her other hand across his collar bone "Your skin is so smooth"

"Thankyou" Jasper smiled into Salem's hair. He pulled away so he was looking down at her. All Salem could concentrate on were his stunning eyes and full rosy red lips. She gently, slowly pressed her lips against his, surprising herself. But his lips, they were smooth and cold and soft, at first she felt that Jasper wasn't kissing her back, but then their lips began to move together, fluidly, perfectly. Salem's heart was pounding, she curled her fingers around his hair, and he pulled her closer, leaning her back against the bank of the Lake. Salem moaned quietly, Jasper's lips moved down her neck, teasing.

"Jasper" she gasped when his lips grazed what of her breast was showing.

He chuckled, and Salem closed her eyes and let herself droop in Jasper's arms, letting his lips kiss her passionately. Suddenly they heard a gasp, and there looking down at them were Sadie and Peyton.
