Chapter 2


"Thanks a lot Ms Edmunds!" Said both Leslie and Jesse. "Take care guys! See you next week at school!" She told them."Bye!" She shouted out as she drove away with a waving arm. Jesse and Leslie also shouted out the word goodbye the same time and waved both of their arms to Ms Edmunds.

When Ms Edmunds car was out if sight Leslie turned to Jesse "Race you to the rope!".

"Your on!" Jesse answered back.

"On your marks, ready, set, GO!" She said.

They ran down the drive way pacing through the path between their houses, Leslie got ahead of Jesse but he was gaining in on her fast until it got to the point that Leslie had to put in some extra effort. Both Leslie and Jesse was neck-and-neck with each other. "The only way to win is to get hold of the rope first" Leslie thought but so did Jesse.

In a couple of meters ahead in the horizon was the rope. They both reached out for the rope and at the same time got a hold of it. They looked at each other smiling and panting for air.

"Well looks like it's a tie this time Les and I see you even put in some extra effort" he said with a cocky giggled "but my King it is a tie how art thou going to he able to cross if we don't know-est who goes first" she said "Ah! Good observation my Queen" he answered.

Both of them were still panting for air "lets take 5 Les So we can catch our breath". Leslie nodded in agreement then they walked towards some fallen lumber tree and sat down.

After a couple of minutes they both stood up "so who goes first?" Inquired by Leslie "well Les, the gesture is Ladies First isn't it?" and at that thought Leslie smiled at Jess, did a bow with her lifting an imaginary skirt "Why thank you my King"

Leslie got a hold of the rope and she was about to swing across to Terabithia when she got stopped by a shouting Jesse.

"Wait Les!" He shouted

"What is it now my King?" she asked

"well I was just looking at the rope and it looks like its going to break" said Jesse.

"To be safe lets just test it Leslie" she also looked at the rope and noticed what Jesse had so she stepped aside and handed the rope over to Jesse.

"Okay Jesse" he walked towards Leslie and took a hold of the rope and started yanking it but didn't break "good test 1 is complete, now get ready for test two" He jumped up 4 feet into the air and grabbed the rope and this time the rope broke.

Jesse fell from 4 feet in the air and into the soft ground but it was still pretty painful even though it was just the dirt ground. "Gaaaahhh!" he exclaimed as he fell on his tush "ow ow" he said while he stood up and was rubbing his butt.

"Wow that would've broken if I would have swung across and I would have fallen into the creek, but I wont drown or anything I took swimming classes when I was younger and if I have fallen in and drown" she looked at Jesse who was still standing in the same spot; rubbing his butt to ease the pain "I know that Jesse would save me, he always protected me from harm due to my impulsive actions".

She walked towards Jesse and swung her arms around him and gave Jesse a soft cuddling hug, Jesse wasn't expecting Leslie to do that so he lost his balance and fell over on his tush again. Jesse had landed on his tush again and he whispered "oooooohhhh that stings" trying to hold back the pain.

Leslie realized that they fell over and Jesse was again in pain, she couldn't bear to see Jesse in pain so she looked him in the eye and gave him a quick kiss on his lips to comfort him.

Time seemed to slow down when their lips met. Their faces were blushing red when they pulled away from each other. "You know Jess one of us would have eventually fallen in the creek, so thank you for preventing that" she said

"So what was that kiss for?" Jesse inquired.

"A little thank you gift" she said with sparkling eyes and a grin

"Is that all? I don't think it is" Jess replied with a gleeful voice looking at Leslie completely mesmerized by her beauty an cuteness.
