Everything Falls Into Place

chapter 13

We stood there in silence. "You wanna go somewhere?" He asked.
I was confused at his question.
"Like where?"
"Just somewhere" he smirked.
"Not a date!"
"Not a date" he agreed.
I smiled then nodded.
"Ok well" Alexander pointed to his truck then opened the door for me.
I looked to my house then got in the passenger seat as he walked around and got in his seat.
"You better not rape me" I joked.
"Dang! you figured out the plan" he put the key in the started as his truck roared.
"Looks like we did fix it" I laughed.
He slipped a smirk then pulled out of the driveway.
I wasn't scared to leave with someone I just met considering over tge years I'm use to doing such a thing.
Alexander drove down the small town back road.
"So why the name Arivaleena?"
"Well it's was my mother's sisters name" unexplained.
"Oh well why would she give you her name?"
"She's dead" I paused "she died before I ever got to meet her"
He stayed silent for a couple of minutes then he apologized.
"It's fine!"
We finally pulled up a much emptier holler.
The quiet voices took over the small road.
"Where are we going?"
"I like to drive up here when i need to think."
I nodded.
"You obviously sit on the roof"
"You do to" I snapped playfully.
Once again a slight silence took over.
"I never did get to ask you" I cleared my throat "why at night on the roof of course, does your voice sound much different?"
Alexander didn't awenser my question instead he changed the subject
"Why are you living with your grandparents anyway?"
I looked at him confused.
"I don't wanna talk about it" I said slowly still curious of why he dodged my question.
He nodded then reached for the radio, and turned on the country station.
Oh felt my ears bleed, but I pulled myself together, and listened to it anyway.
I looked at Alexander and couldn't help but stare. I'm not in love or even crushing there's just an odd feeling about him and not like a bad one or untrustworthy feeling. It's more like a good feeling like I feel good around him. We drove down to a small lake.
"Why are we going here?" I asked.
"You'll see"
He stopped the truck then we got out.
"I like to come here when im pissed or just need time alone." He explained.
"Why are you showing me this?"
"I don't know.." he paused "I just feel like I should"
"Here follow me" he began to walk around the side if the lake.
He took a seat on a log that rested along the side of the lake.
He patted the seat beside him so i sat down.
I took a sniff and could smell the nature. It smelled fresh.
"this is crazy" I sighed.
"What's crazy?"
"I got in a car with a stranger, I don't even know you" I added "and left somewhere I don't even know where! Like you could rape me or something"
"You'd like it to much" he smirked.
I generally pushed him "ya right"
"But I know what you'd like" I bit my lip.
"What?"
I leaned towards him slowly and looked into his eyes. I noticed a light shade of pink form on his cheeks.
I quickly shoved him into the lake.
He splashed into the water then came up and took a breath. He breathed his wet hair back creating a messy look.
"Cute" he smirked.
He slowly got out and said "your gonna wish you didn't do that"
I stood up off the log and started laughing while running causing me to run out of breath.
"I'm gonna get you!" He yelled laughing as well.
"No!!"
Before I could get away he wrapped his arms around my small waste and swung me around "got ya!!"
"No this is a new shirt" I lied.
"There's grease all over it so you obviously don't care about it"
"Crap!" I shouted.
He started for the water.
"No!" I kicked and laughed.
He tossed me in!
As I hit the water I felt the cool water breeze across my skin.
I swam up and took a big breath.
Then busted out laughing once more.
He took off his shirt then dived in.
I looked around but couldn't see him from the deepness.
He popped up right in front of me.
"What was tge pint in taking off your shirt if it's already wet?" I asked.
"Maybe I like to show off"
He attempted to flex.
"Yeah" I started laughing.
"Shut up" he splashed me.
"Hey!!" I splashed back.
Then it became a splash war.
After out two minutes of splashing Alexander grabbed my arm.
"What?" I giggled.
He wasn't smiling matter a fact he looked the same as when he was jogging with my pap and asked me about my bruise...my bruise!! My make-up had to have come off!
My insurance took over myself again.
I put my free hand over my face.
We still never said anything.
He put his hand over my hand that is covering my face.
He slowly pulled my hand down with his revealing my running makeup.
He put my hand down then whipped off the rest of my makeup.
"You look sexy without that shit on your face" he said honestly.
"No"
"Yes"
"No!" I snapped again.
"Forgive me"
I looked at him Curiously
"For what?" I finally said.
"This!" He said quickly placing his lips to mine.
