The Jungle Boy

Chapter 8: In The Treehouse

Jack stopped for a moment to look down at Anna's face. She looked up at him, blushing. He reached up again, this time placing a hand upon her cheek. "Anna," he breathed.

"Jack," she looked up at him, wondering what he was about to do. He leaned down slowly, and softly pressed his lips to hers. Anna laid there as he kissed her. Jack started to kiss her a little harder, holding her body against his. Anna could feel her lips tingling as he kissed her, and wrapped her arms around his neck as he held her. He then stopped, looking down upon her then into her eyes. "Jack..." He then let go of her and got up, looking out the window of the treehouse. Anna got up off the ground to see what he was looking out the window for until she realized that she was standing there naked. She quickly covered herself and looked down to find her clothes as Jack was at the window. She found her dress was ripped along with her stocking. "Oh no, now what am I going to wear." Jack looked back at her, and approached her. Anna blushed as he looked her over. "Do y-you have anything I could wear?" Jack thought for a moment before running to the closet on the other side of the treehouse, soon returning with a loin cloth and some more material that the loin cloth was formed from. He handed the cloth to her. "Thank you, Jack," she smiled slightly, blushing. She put the loin cloth on and made a top out of the rest of the material. She blushed looking down at her body, she didn't like feeling so exposed. Jack approached her from behind, she turned to face him. "Please, take me back to the beach."

"No, Anna. You stay here with me," he began taking her into his arms, "I want you to be my bride."

"What? Jack, I only just met you a few days ago, and besides, I have people looking for me, I have to return home."

"No Anna."

"But, Jack-" before she could say any more, he picked her up, throwing her over his shoulder, and climbing up to the entrance to the roof. At the top he emerged, keeping Anna on his shoulder as he stepped out onto the roof. He then grabbed a vine and swung down into the jungle, leaving the treehouse.
