Lisa's POV,

The way Jennie held my hand made me melt for her. I was taking a few peeks at her even though she was all concentrated on the continuous ringing of sound in her ears. It was quiet, all peace and I could hear her heartbeat rising high, her chest going up and down, her face dripping with sweat. She looked puzzled and determined to not let go of me even in the worst case.

" I guess it's a bad idea coming alone into the woods" she said and I chuckled in response.

" What?? I guess there is nothing funny in that" she said being annoyed.

" I swear there are no animals inside" I said just to cheer her up and I have no idea where we are but I switched on my locater app to note the route we are heading. I know it must sound stupid to track distance in a forest where all directions are surrounded by nothing but trees, just for an emergency to call help.

"Do you trust me, Jennie?" I asked her but she just looked at me from head to toe.

" I do if you are not a serial killer" she said ad I scoffed.

"Why can't we just run?" I stopped her making her answer my question and not answer my question with a question.

"Excuse me? Are you....?" she gave me an idiotic look.

"If we walk like this, it's gonna take us forever to go to the other side" I said.

"There is no other side Lisa. We are just gonna find a free space and speak there for a while."

"On second thought, why don't I just drag you with me" I just gave her one last look and then took off my speed.

"LISAAA" she screamed as we both ran together into the woods.

At that moment, I just liked the way she cursed me again and again but that didn't stop me from running. I made sure we won't trip and fall but anyways, we knew where we were going.

"Ahh- Lisa enough" she let go of my hand and stood there catching her breath, panting heavily and bending down.

I took that as a moment to reduce my breathing rate before my heart pumps out of my body. I removed my checked shirt to wipe the sweat off my body.

"That was fun" she said and I smiled.

"I never go wrong" I boasted.

" Here take my shirt and wipe your face, it looks red as a tomato" I gave it looking at her.

"Cuz, that's because you being shirtless. Put it on Lisa" she teased and walked in front.

"Hey, that was casual and it wasn't intentional" I said meaning it but she went further away. This girl is always hard to get person.

"Hey come, Take a look at this" she called me.

"What?? Now you're shirtless right" I made fun asking her because I knew she is the type of girl who never lets her guard down.

I walked pushing the branches and there I saw the view. A more beautiful view than a Hogwarts school. It was waterfalls from god knows where. The brink wasn't viewable and looked like a bunch of clouds.

"You wish" she said as I stood next to her.

" I bet this view is more appealing than yours" I said moving forward to wet my toes in the clear water.

" You are always corny Lisa" she wined. Jennie gets mad easily.

I removed my shoes and socks. I tied my hair into a bun so that it doesn't wet when I swim. I slowly went inside the water and checking the coldness of it. It was mildly warm, so fit to have a good swim.
