Chapter 4: Attacked In The Lake
Melinda came out of her bedroom sporting a 2 piece bathing suit. Jim came out with a towel and only wearing his bathing suit, no shirt. Melinda stared at Jim "Oh my god" Melinda mouthed. Jim slipped into his sandles. "You know what, why don't you just go" Melinda said. She knew she couldn't do it, this would definitely drive her crazy. "What? No come on you have to come" Jim said. "No that's ok" Melinda said, she was staring at Jim at the corner of her eyes. Jim walked over to her "Come on, you don't need to be scared. You'll be fine" Jim said. Jim walked outside. Melinda didn't follow him. She stayed in the house and took a deep breath. "Come on Mel" Jim said loud enough for her to hear him. Melinda slipped into her sandals and went outside after Jim. Jim was down by the docks untying the boat when Melinda got it. Jim got in behind her. Jim himself was staring at Melinda, he didn't know why he was staring at her, he had a girlfriend for god sakes and he found himself staring at her slim body. Jim sat down in the boat and started it up. "Are you sure you know what your doing" Melinda asked. "Yes, I do know what I'm doing. Don't worry" Jim said and started to drive the boat out of the canal into the lake. As soon as they got far from the docks and you could barely see the land, Jim stopped the boat and sat on the edge of the deck of the boat and laid down to tan. Melinda was still sitting in her seat looking around. The water was peaceful and so smooth, there wasn't another boat in sight. "What's wrong" Jim said, he could tell she was worried about something without even staring at her. "Oh nothing. Just thinking" Melinda said. Jim sat up "Wanna talk about it" Jim asked her. "No it's really nothing. Why don't you go swim. I'm just going to lay here and get some sun" Melinda said. "You sure your going to be ok up here by yourself" Jim said. "Yeah I'll be fine. Go swim" Melinda said and walked over to the deck and sat down next to Jim. "Why don't you join me" Jim said. "Oh no. I don't swim in water this deep" Melinda said. "Ok, fine" Jim stood up and dived into the lake. Melinda let out a sigh of relief. Melinda laid down on the deck "Why did I come. This is torture. I'm married" Melinda mumbled to herself. Melinda smacked herself in the head.
Melinda sat up a few minutes later, since she hadn't heard from Jim in a while. She could see that Jim swam a little futher out and was starting to swim back. Melinda then noticed something swimming not far from Jim. "What the hell is that" Melinda said to herself. Melinda then noticed it look like a shark's fin. Melinda hit her head "My mind is playing tricks on me now. There are no sharks in lakes only oceans" Melinda said to herself. Melinda glanced back at Jim who was swimming back still, the thing was still following Jim. Melinda looked freaked out now "JIM" Melinda yelled. Jim stopped swimming "WHAT" Jim said loud enough so she could hear him. "GET BACK HERE. HURRY UP. DON'T STOP" Melinda yelled. Jim started swimming back as he seen something following him at the corner of his eye. He suddenly felt something scratch his leg but it wasn't from the shark. Jim swam into the boat and the shark was right by him. Jim tried to pull himself up but couldn't his leg kept sliding off the boat. "Come on hurry up" Melinda said as she tried to pull him up. Melinda struggled to pull him up but was soon got him into the boat. They both flew back "Are you ok" Melinda asked who was on top of him. "Ow" Jim said. "What's wrongs" Melinda asked, she looked concerned and worried. "My leg" Jim groaned in pain. Melinda looked at his leg. Blood was coming out like crazy, the cut was big and looked pretty deep. Melinda grabbed her towel and ripped it in half and wrapped his leg up "Wow, where did you learn that from" Jim asked and then groaned. "I took a few medical classes" Melinda said. "Oh well then it sure came in handy today" Jim said. Jim started to get up "No, just sit. I will drive us back home. Just tell me what to do" Melinda said. Jim sat back down, he noticed Melinda was more caring then usual. Melinda started the boat up and started to drive as Jim told her what to do. "Are you sure your ok" Melinda asked as she drove back, her voice was full of worry. "Yeah I'll be fine" Jim groaned at the pain. "What the hell was a shark doing in that water anyway? I mean I've heard that sharks swim into lakes now but never have I believed it or seen it" Melinda said. "I know it's crazy" Jim said. Jim seemed nervous that Melinda was driving the boat, she really had no clue how to drive a boat but as a beginner she was doing pretty good, Jim thought to himself. "When we get back I'll clean the cut off" Melinda said. "Ok" Jim said.
Once they were back to shore, Melinda helped Jim up "Can you walk at all" Melinda asked. "Yeah a little" Jim said. Jim put his arm around Melinda and she put her arms around his waist "Don't push pressure on your leg" Melinda said. Melinda helped him back to the house and to the couch. "Thanks, Mel" Jim said. "Don't mention it. Let me just go find something for that cut" Melinda said as she walked away. "Ok" Jim said, he watched as she walked away, the pain wasn't really bothering him as his mind was elsewhere. Melinda stood in the bathroom for a minute "Damn me. Why did I come here" she said as she looked up. Melinda grabbed some things from the cabinet in the bathroom and came back out with a few things in her hand for Jim.
