 ***************************************************************************************************************

 

 “Feel that Spark Yet?” he coos sensually, his eyes locked on mine. My lips are still on fire and as much as I hate to admit it. He’s a great—no, dynamic kisser and as for his question. Did I feel sparks—fireworks? …Like midnight on the fourth of July.  But that’s more than I’d like or will ever admit to him.

“No.” I lie, as straight faced as possible.

He chuckles lightly and returns to his sitting position. He looks up at my standing figure deep into my eyes “You have to be the worst liar ever.”

I fold my arms over my chest and clench my jaw. “You have to be the most cocky, pretentious, dickheaded kid I’ve ever come face to face with and that’s saying something because I met the Olsen Twins!” I yell out of anger at his attitude.

“I resent that, I’m not a kid and don’t you mean lips to lips?” I groan out of annoyance and rub my face with my hands.

“You know, you make it too obvious that you’re attracted to me.” I instantly look down at him. He is so cocky…I wish there was a way to knock him down a notch.

“Just admit it; you want me more than Alex. I’m good looking, talented and charming.”

“Says who? The ones you have had sex with and thrown to the side? The ones who you’ve broken or your loving parents who plan to ride your coattails for the next fifty years? That doesn’t make you charming Jacob, it makes you a player. Charming means that I’d want to cuddle with you not have sex with you. Share a life, not a cigarette, get married too…not regret.” I explain, pouring my heart’s thoughts out to him. His face looks a bit stunned and a tad remorseful.

He stands up and approaches me. A gasp escapes my lips when he places a finger on my cheek and begins to gently stroke it.

He brings his lips to my ears and breathes softly on it, sending a tingling feeling down my neck. “You’re right, I’m a pig.” He whispers. He removes himself from my ear and looks me in the eyes, his—shining like the moon.

“You would never date someone like me.” he continues, grabbing me by the waist and pressing our bodies together. “Because, quite frankly—” he uses his finger tips to tilt my head up to him and lowers his lips. As much as I want to fight him off—I can’t. I’m paralyzed, by his words, his looks, his eyes.

“Quite frankly, you don’t deserve it.” he scolds, chuckling briskly. He lets my head drop and moves backwards with his hands in his pockets. Just…smirking at me.

“You are such an asshole.” I spit with vigor towards him. He shrugs his shoulders and licks his lips.

“You say asshole, I say charm. Maybe you’re still dizzy from it but in case you didn’t notice, you didn’t exactly move away when I wrapped my hands around you tightly and moved in close. So I win that argument, I do have charm Mr. Harris and if I started competing for you against Alex, you’d be making me a sandwich after a wild and eventful night at my place in a couple of hours.” I poke the inside of my cheek with my tongue in anger; trying to contain my words…this is PG-13 after all.

A stiff and awkward pause takes over, not even the sound wave’s motion can cut through the tension. I look at him. “Why are you such a jerk?” I whisper through the silence.

He smiles a bit taking one hand out of his pocket and placing it on his chin. “Well, I think its genetics really but honestly, it’s just how I am.” I sigh and begin to walk up the peer growing tired of his arrogance.

Waves crash on both sides of me against its wooden edges. I could hear light footsteps behind me but I chose to ignore them. It’s probably Jacob anyway. I just concentrate on the shining milky orb in front of me in the sky, the moon. It’ funny, it looks like a giant compared to the stars—a god among mortals, when in reality those stars are hundreds, maybe thousands times bigger than it, just farther away.  I sit on the edge of the peer’s ledge as just look down into the dark blue waters. I can see little fishes running up and down in schools, all doing a job, it may seem like they are lost or just aimlessly scurrying but that’s not true. We all have something to do, a job, a destiny…

“Can I join you?” I look up instantly at the voice’s owner. Not the jock I thought it would be.

I smile widely and pat the empty space on the side of me. Alex sits down next to me rather closely and follows my eyes to the sea.

“What happened?” he asks. I simply look at him, back at Jacob who is eating with Evelyn further down the pathway and sigh as my gaze returns to Alex. He forms his mouth into an “o” and gives me a sympathetic smile.

 “Don’t worry about Jacob, he’s— a bit confused.”

I furrow my eyebrows. “What do you mean confused?”

He doesn’t answer my question…just smiles. Strange people in this city…

He picks up the plate of food and hands it to me. I put aside, my appetite gone from my little fight with Jacob. Alex however, dives into his plate of fish sticks and fries. I giggle a bit watching him. He’s really messy while eating and it’s kind of adorable. Like a little kid that got spaghetti all over him when he eats it alone for the first time.

“Can I ask you a question?” he stops and looks at me still chewing. “I was just wondering,” I begin. I wipe the ketchup from the side of his lips with my hand and he smiles.

“Well, I was just wondering, when I first met you—you were a bit of a—well, you were a pig. How have you changed so fast?”

He waits a bit, probably thinking of something decent to say. “I don’t really know. You seem different from everyone I’ve dated before. Then you turned me down when I ask you to be my boyfriend, that’s a first. So I said, if this kid denied me he has to be worth something do I’ll be romantic for a change.”

His big brown eyes start to glitter. Their alluring sparkle is hard to resist and I have no choice but to believe him, even if that wasn’t a good answer in my books.

“Now then. I have a question for you.” He stands up and offers me his hand.

This time I take it willingly the first time and he helps me to my feet. He turns me to the ocean in front of us and presses his chest against my back, placing his chin on my shoulder.

“I always loved the sea, it’s calming and serene and right now—that’s how I feel.”

“So why can I feel your heart ripping through your shirt?” I ask with a slight and quick chuckle.

He snickers and presses down harder on my shoulder, embarrassed.

“I’m a little nervous.” I turn around to face him and look him in the face.

“Why?” his lips part a little and he rubs the back of his neck.

“Well when I ask people this question they usually say yes in an instant but this time I’m not too sure.”

“The question being?” of course I knew what the question was, but I always liked hearing guys ask me it. It gives me a sense of power of sorts. I can say yes and make them happy, or say no and crush them.

“Will you be my boyfriend?” even though I knew that was the question; it still made my heart flutter. It’s been a while since I’ve been asked it…and the last time I foolishly said yes. Let’s hope this time I get it right.

I wrap my arms around his neck. “How bad do you want me?”

He raises an eyebrow and smirks. He takes his eyes from me and stands over to the very tip of the ledge and looks at the water below.

“I can’t swim.” He mutters.

“What does that—” I stop suddenly when he dives into the treacherous abyss. I sprint over to the edge and look for him but there was no sign.

My God! I didn’t mean kill yourself! I look for him in the atwar but there is no sign at all as the water returns to its still position. 

“Jacob!” I yell back at him. He looks up annoyed but once he saw the distress look on my face he quickly gets up and runs over to me.

“Alex!”  I scream out. I start to hyperventilate and pace around.

“Where is he?” Jacob asks, quite stupidly I might add. I shot him a death glare and growl.

“If I knew that do you think—” I don’t get to finish when a pair of cold, wet hands grab me and send me overboard.

I begin sink into the water but a hand grabs me by the waist and guides me to the surface. I take in a large breath and rub my eyes, trying to restore my vision.

My vision finally clears and I see a  smiling Jacob. “I lied; I’m on the school’s swimming team.”

I gaps and punch him in the chest. “I thought you killed yourself, don’t ever do that again!” I yell at him, still in genuine shock.

He laughs; loosening his grip on my waist but still keeps a firm lock on them enough to stop me from sinking back under.

“Okay now back to my question. Will you be my boyfriend?”

“Are you going to try and commit suicide again?” I ask, with a light laugh.

The water swallows him and once again he’s out of sight. I feel something gently rub past my feet and slither up behind me.

Alex’s hands, something I was becoming rather familiar with makes their way back to my waist and around to my abdomen. Locking his hands together so I couldn’t move.

“Not if you say yes. Then I’ll live.” He says, breathing onto my neck. Making the hairs stand to attention, even in the damp, unusually warm water.

“Then Yes, I will be your boyfriend.”

He pumps his fist in the air and screams out loud and goes back under. I can hear him rustling under the waters like a fish been caught and struggling to get free. He emerges again with a starfish. A freaking Starfish! How did he even get that low under there…?

“How did you—you know what forget it.” I giggle and swim over to him, well at least try to. He grabs me when he notices I’m trying to get over and grabs me by my hand.

“You’re really pretty.” I hit him over his head as we twirl in each other’s arms in the water.

“I resent that, I’m handsome.” I say and he shrugs.

“No, I’ handsome and sexy and hot and a little—.” I place a finger on his lips

“Get to the point.”

“My point is, you’re more than just handsome, you’re pretty, lovely—beautiful.”

You’ve got to admit, the boy has a way with words. Something he shares with his best friend, but he’s sweeter with them. Instead of retracting it attracts. I can understand why he’d be called the perfect player.

“Thank-You…” I place my head against his chest and arms around his neck, locking then together in the back. He keeps his hands locked around my waist as we move gingerly through the water. The sound of light breathing is rather calming and the rising of his chest is soothing and this felt like it was meant to be.

“Evan.” Even when he says my name, it’s filled with adoration.

“Hey you two! We’ve been standing here for fifteen minutes watching your love fest, kiss already so we can get the hell out of here!” Evelyn shouts from the wooden platform’s edge. Jacob’s face is hardened next to her. He seems pissed off. Serves the douche right. 

I look back up at the boy holding me. He looks at me worriedly, as if to ask if I was comfortable. I smile in return, reassuring him that is was okay.

He leans close but stops when he reaches my lips. He just lingers there and smiles.

“Are you going to kiss me or just float here?”

He presses his lips against mines softly.

It’s the exact opposite of the kiss with Jacob but the sparks remain the same. Sensation is just as evident but the difference is that I was actually participating in this one.

He holds me harder around the waist and we begin to sink. I moan escapes his lips when I tugged at his hair. He breaks the kiss and looks at me sweetly.

“Okay, I want to try something. When you feel me, take a deep breath and come under.” He tells me taking a deep breath and dives under.

“Where did he go?” Jacob asks. I throw him a confused look and shrug.

I feel a hand tug at my leg, I assume its Alex. I take a deep breath and head under with him.

Once we’re under the dark blue waters, he grabs me closer to him and connects our lips again.

I have never kissed under water but it feels ethereal and I thought it only happened in cheesy Jennifer Aniston movies…

We twist and twirl as our lips stay locked to one another’s.

I was so into it I didn’t even realize we resurfaced until I noticed I could hear clearly again and not just the movement of the sea underwater.

*****************************************************************************************

When we get out of the water we eat and talk for a while longer but it was getting late so they drove us home.

“You know I usually don’t kiss on the first date.” I admit, standing on our front steps.

“Yeah, well, I usually do a whole on more than kiss on the first date.” he says.

“That’s true.” I chuckleand lightly press my lips against his.

He smiles slowly and says, “That’s something I could get used to.”

I feel the heat crawling up onto my cheeks and quickly spin around to face the door.

“Well you two get home safely.” Evelyn says, quickly motioning the two boys off the porch. They both wave at us and head back to their car.

Once the car leaves Evelyn places the key in the door but doesn’t open it. She looks over at me with a smirk and leans against the door’s frame.

“I know about you and Jacob.”

I snicker and hit her gently. “What are you talking about, there’s nothing between me and Jacob.”

“Yeah and I’m the King of La-La Land and my Queen is Lady GaGa of the Mushroom village.”

I stare blankly at her with my mouth slightly parted. “You’re a strange child.”

“That might be true but I saw they way you two would look at one another.”

I sigh. Might as well not hide anything from her. She already knows so why not. “Okay, I am slightly attracted to him, but his hideous personality detracts that.”

“I knew it. God I feel used. You were all he was talking about I mean God, there’s only so much a girl can take before she cries gay.” She groans.

I pat her on her shoulder and smile. “Sorry for stealing your boyfriend…again. But if it makes you feel any better he’s not into me, he’s too cocky. ”

“Don’t worry about it. I have a way to get back to get him back and it involves you.”

I raise an intrigued eyebrow. “I’m Listening…”

“Well.” she begins, turning the key and opening the door.

The lights are on, I don’t remember leaving them on.

 I take of my shoes at the door and turn around to hang my wet clothes on the rack. Hopefully they’ll be a little dry in the morning.

“Well it involves…Dad…” she says causing me to scoff loudly.

“As if dad would help us with—,” I turn around and enter the living room. Ev is standing there across the room from those two blue eyes with mom right beside him in her bath robe. She places her hands on her waist and dad’s are over his chest.

 “Oh you meant dad-dad…”I mumble while biting my lips under the scrutinizing and disappointed gazes of our parents.  He lowers his head but keeps his eyes on us.

This is not going to be good…
