Timtooni POV
"Hey, Tee, thank you. Thank you for everything. I didn't expect it to go as smoothly as planned,
Teeya is like a sister to me and I wouldn't have forgiven myself if something of that sort had happened. You have no idea how you've been of immense help, I don't know if I could ever repay you back. And oh, I never taught you were this poetic, I mean what you said out there, it just, you know..errm......., I hear Shenelle say after a long silence.
"So are you gonna act like nothing ever happened?", I asked ignoring her 'thankyou' Speech. Not that I wasn't glad I could help, but hey what difference does it make?
"And what could that be?" She shyly replied, with her dimples accompanying that question mark.
I throw her a wry smirk as could see she was ready to pass out from all this friction.
"How about we ditch this whole going to pick Teeya who by now is having a good time, and celebrate our little success?"
"Celebrate what exactly?", She asked looking lost as ever.
"Uh, Errm celebrate your Grammy award acting skills and of course my Shakespearic self"
She lets out a laugh, And where is this "tee–lebration" coming off?''
"Tee? What?", I asked in outmost shock
"Teelebration, celebration, you, Tee, Teelebration, duhh", She said sarcastically.
The brains of this child! Who'd have ever thought of such! I take this whole "teelebration".
There's no harm in breaking rules, is there?
In no time, we stood in front of a powerful and serene water fall. I could tell she was shocked.
And I liked it that way.
Shenelle POV
The waterfall that stood unmovable infront of me was the best thing id ever seen. Such a rare beauty. Who would have ever expected such a bouyant waterfall in the North. I stood motionlessly as I tried to digest the sight.
Just before I returned from oblivion, Tee grabbed my palms an forcebly pulled me along with him.
"Your teelebration is about to go down!", Tee gave out a loud girly scream
Soon we were all "dipidy dip", "splashidy splash," and soaking wet in the waterfall that beheld us. Swimming was a sure way to release the tension and enjoy ourselves while at it.
How could I not act like i didn't notice how the chilled water if the waterfall trickled down his bare muscular chest or how his thick black northern hair stood conspicuous although it was soaked in water.
How could I not realize this just tell me, how?
I had never stood so close to a guy like this before. And yes! The butterflies came in their numbers...
Swimming and the fun of it, pushed us to deeper depths. With Tee just an inch away and the pacified waters at chest level, God knows I could hold it no more.
His eyes are fixated firmly on mine and I look shyly away, not that it helped.
With Shakey hands, I gently place my hands on his bare muscular chest.Then slow but sure, I traced my fingers over the skin on his muscular chest, specifically the symmetrical line that bilaterally divided his chest.
He lowers his head down, with his gaze following my daring fingers. I couldn't read his mind as his expressions were vague, but I knew within my hearts of hearts that he wanted this.
True to my thoughts, he gently placed my cold palms on his cheek and as if knowing what to do already, I caressed them, his untrimmed facial hair tickled my palms while at it.
I looked steadily at his lips. Oh how those dark lips complemented his brown skin. I couldn't just stop looking at them. I'd always noticed those lips but today, I genuinely appreciated them.
We said nothing.
It was like he knew what I was thinking and knew when to act and I did so too
We had this mutual connection that no word could ever establish.
There and then, the words of my dad rechoed through me.
"Shenelle always go for what you truly desire".
And so I'm doing this.
I pushed forward and made my statement, a loud and clear one for that matter.
Timtooni POV
Just when I thought the cool waterfall would give me a brain freeze, I received much brainer freeze strong enough to be an electric shock.
And how could I not reciprocate?
I possessively grabbed her from behind and raised her up, she swung her feet around my waist and clung unto me like her life depended on it with Her arms wrapped around my neck.
We stared, looking shocked, confused? I don't know. What I could tell however was how I badly wanted her near.
I further pressed my lips on hers, as though I was knocking and she parted her pink soft lips open as though she was replying the knock.
This time it was long, passionate, as though we never wanted it to end. We finally pulled away, not out of tiredness but out of the need for air.
"I love you Tee"....
This was all I heard through the noisy waterfall. Damn what a win! I congratulated myself within. Hey, who saves the day and gets the girl?
Next, we both found ourselves lying leisurely
Across the bank on the greenish meadow, with the Wild northern sun retreating into a beautiful and peaceful sunset.
There we both lay, my arms around her and her braids scattered on my chest due to her head seeking refuge there, on my bare chest.
