Part three
03. Explore the woods

Y/n's POV

"If I get poison ivy I'm suing you," I say jokingly.

"You're the one who signed the contract Princess." Clay laughs.

"Shit you're right".

"Of course I am".

"I see you're still on your cocky arc," I say.

"It's not an arc it's a lifestyle," He says sarcastically.

"Look, a creek," I say pointing infront of us, ignoring what he said.

"I'll race you there".

"Oh you're going down," I say starting to sprint.

"Hey!," He says sprinting past me like it was nothing.

"How did you do that," I say leaning against a tree, out of breath.

"I took track in middle school," he smirks.

"Of course you did".

He bends down and looks at the water, running his hand through it.

""Look at this rock," I say bringing it up out of the water.

"That's a pretty one," He responds picking it up from my hand, our hands barley grazing each other.

"Mira," I mutter.

"What?," Clay asks in confusion.

"I'm naming the rock'.

"You're naming the rock?," Clay asks, a little chuckle escaping from his mouth.

"That's what I just said isn't it?".

"Who's the cocky one now?".

I look around for a few seconds pretending to think, "You," I say stepping into a stone in the water.

"I don't think that's how this works ma'am".

"Since when did you make the rules?," I ask, planting my feet on another rock, Clay following behind me.

As I take another step I feel my feet slide from beneath me, I let out a tiny yell before I'm engulfed in strong arms.

"I always make the rules, now be careful," He smirks.

Timeskip

"Look at me," Clay says as he grabs his camera.

"Another one?".

"Yes, another one," he says snapping the picture.

"Oo look at this one!," I yell holding up another rock.

"How many rocks do you need".

"We're supposed to be collecting things right," I say.

"Touche. What's that one's name?".

"Hhhmmmm I think it looks like a.......Charlie".

"Y'know what, I think so too," Clay says laughing.

Timeskip

"Y/n what are you doing?" Clay asks as I walk up a tree that had fallen diagonally. (You know what I'm talking about right, like a fallen tree resting against another one)

"I'm exploring!," I yell down to him.

"You're gonna get hurt, it doesn't look that stable!," He yells.

"I'll be fine!," I yell back. As if on cue I hear a snapping sound, the next thing I knew the tree had fallen out from under my feet.

I let out a scream right before I land on the ground with a hard thud.

"Y/N!," Clay yells, running over to me.

I start laughing as he kneels next to me.

"Are you ok! I told you-," he starts to say before I interrupt him.

"I'm fine".

"You're so stupid," he says scanning me for cuts.

"That's your opinion," I respond, as he helps me up.

I brush off my pants as he starts to pick the leaves out of my hair.

"Look what you've done," He says with a slight chuckle.

Timeskip

"Look at this," I say holding up an empty beer bottle.

"Ew don't touch that," Clay says.

"Why? I can clean it up and put flowers in it," I say putting it in my bag.

"You do you princess," I scrunch my nose up at the nickname.

Timeskip

"Look, another bottle," I say washing it off in the creek.

"Do you have a price of paper?" Clay asks.

"I think I have a used piece," I say.

"Is the back blank?".

"Ya, why?," I say pulling it out of my bag.

"Can I see the bottle, we can write a note".

"A message in a bottle?," I ask with a slight smile.

"Exactly".

He takes out his pen and writes a little note.

Summer of 22', the year of The Bucket List.
-Clay

He hands the pen to me.

By the time you're reading this we've probably completed the Bucket List, find someone and start your own.
-Y/n

"That's a good idea, having them continue this," Clay mutters.

I look at him and smile.

"We should head home, it's gonna be dark soon," Clay whispers.

"You're probably right".

"Alright then, let's get going," Clay says.

""Today was fun," I say as I take my hand in his.

"It was," He says looking at me, smiling.
