Devil's Daughter

Chapter 14

"So, how long has that been going on?" Ziggy nodded down to their hands.

"Why, you want in?" Smirked Artemis as Ziggy and Nick blushed at her question.

Ziggy began to quickly deny as Artemis let out a laugh. "Anyway, don't you have a date with... what was his name again?" She looked towards Nick, who quickly caught onto her teasing tone.

"Oh yeah, that boy with the glasses, stutters everytime he sees you, even trips on air." Smirked Nick.

"I don't have a crush on him and it's not a date. He just needs help with something." Explained Ziggy, face turning red.

Nick and Artemis smirked misheviously at Ziggy as she covered her face, not taking anymore of their teasing.

"Do you hear that, I think someone is calling me, BYE!!" Shouted a hurried Ziggy as she opened the door.

Nick quickly closed the door, locking it. As they stared at each other they began to laugh.

"Tha-that was so easy!" Laughed Nick, trying to control his laughter as his faced turned red.

Silence soon led as Artemis leaned onto the table.

"You sure don't talk much, do you?" Nick remarked without harmful intent.

"There's not really much to say to anyone in this little boring town. Why?" Said Artemis, turning around to look at the boy, who had to act as if he hadn't been staring at her a moment too long.

"Oh- it just makes me curious."

"About what?"

Nick licked his lips for a moment and looked to the ground and back at her.

"What's going on in that beautiful mind of yours, Artemis?" He sighed, bending and leaning both of his arms onto the table behind him.

Artemis smirked slyly, as her silence only drew the boy in as he leaned forward. He placed his hands onto his knees and pushed himself onto his feet, walking up to the girl so her face was slightly below his.

"Say it." He muttered, barely above a whisper but Artemis's eyes darkened. Nick Goode had such a way of saying things that she was impressed.

"You." She said, deciding to have some fun if she had to stay in this camp.

Artemis saw the corners of Nick's lips tug upwards in a smile of glee. Nick couldn't tear his eyes away from Artemis's eyes they were glued to hers like his life depended on it.

The whole room had gone completely silent, only the floorboards below Nick's frame were heard once he pushed his lips forcefully onto hers, and the two began to push and pull at each other until Nick pushed Artemis down onto the table as she released a sudden moan.

Nick's eyes lit up as he resumed.

He pulled off his shirt as Artemis did the same. Nick looked down at her encouragingly, holding onto her wrists making sure she was okay before pushing his lips back to hers.
