'Keep going' calls the voice and although I can't see anything other than the fingers tangled in mine I follow the sound of her voice as though she's leading me to the promised land
Tap, tap...
After walking for what feels like forever yet no time at all we finally come to a halt and as the moonlight begins to light up everything in front of me I can't actually believe what I'm seeing because we are standing on the edge of a small cliff staring down at the most beautiful waterfall I have seen in my entire life, well the only waterfall I've seen in real life but here it is, in my home town, the place I have lived for my entire life but had no idea this place existed
'Holy fuck!' I say out loud and the girl I've been following steps forwards, pressing up onto her tiptoes and then running her thumb over my bottom lip
'What a dirty mouth you have' She says with a wink and then takes my hand again as she begins leading us over the edge of the cliff and down a narrow rocky path
Tap, tap, tappidy, tap...
'Tonight's a full moon' she says it as she lifts a leg to straddle my waist. I'm sat on a rock by the edge of the waterfall, my vision torn by the natural beauty of the water and the beauty of the brunette girl that just flipped my night 360 'That's why it's bright enough for you to get a good view of what's going on'
She settles on my lap and places her hands around the back of my neck, her warm, sweet smell intoxicating me more than any alcohol ever could
'Do you believe the moon has power over us all? Over our mind and our behaviour?'
I don't get to answer before her lips are on my neck and her hands are moving through my hair
'I do' she whispers before she finally moves her lips to cover mine, my entire world exploding into colours and tastes and sounds I didn't realise the human body had the capability of experiencing
Tap, tap, tap, tap...
I look down at the beautiful being knelt between my thighs and struggle to believe that this is the way my night has gone.
When I was getting ready this afternoon, throwing on black board shorts and a black tank top and then adding my school tie for extra effect I had expected alcohol, swimming and then sloppy sex on the beach, I hadn't expected to go on a late night adventure with some moonlight goddess and then have her desperately pulling down my shorts as she settled herself and then looked up at me, drawing her tongue across her lips before reaching down to take hold of me as my breath caught and my body burned with an anticipation I don't think I have ever felt before, not even before the first time I had sex
'Mmm, you look delicious' and then her head drops and the wet warmth of her mouth is the only thing in the world that I'm conscious of

"Mendes!!" Brian's hands land hard on my back as he pushes me from my sitting position and into the pool
"You dick!" I shout up at him through mouthfuls of water
"I have been talking to you for 5 minutes straight and you ignored every word"
"That's cos all you talk is shit!" I argue as I climb out of the pool and then run in his direction
"You've been in cloud coo-coo land for days now, I thought a good drowning might knock some sense into you" He ducks begin the table that's laden with drinks of all varieties as I pick up a shoe and launch it in his direction
"Now now children"
My brother Ethan steps out of the house carrying a tray of limes and little sachets of salt just in time to distract me long enough for Brian to return fire with the shoe as it hits me hard on the back of my head
