Sinders Arise

4 Learning the basics: physical

When we get to my grandparents house I quickly open the car door and Samantha grabs my arm.

" Don't forget your bathing suit." She says then releases my arm. I grin and dash into my house. I grab my overnight bag that I had pulled out of one of the boxes that I had unpacked yesterday. I packs my pajamas, enough clothes for three days, my bathing suit and my bathing suit cover up, my toothbrush, and hair brush along with my other toiletries I might need like my razor, perfume, and so on. I race downstairs and grab my charger from the counter that Nana had so kindly reminded me to grab. I throw my bag in the back of the car before climbing in. Soon enough we are speeding down the streets headed for a house that I didn't even know the address to.

I open my school bag and dig through the contents until I find my journal. The symbol on the front of the journal that matches the symbol now burned in black ink on my right palm, starts to glow a dark blood red. I watch the light mesmerized by the beautiful color.

" What's that?" Samantha asks turning toward me. I snap out of my daze only to realize we have parked in what I assume is their garage. I put it away quickly not ready to trust them with everything just yet.

" Nothing." I say. They seem to understand my feelings of uncertainty and just nod. We go inside the house with my bags in hand I gasp loudly not believing my eyes. The house was beautiful and professionally designed. -or at least that's what I assumed because the design was just so amazing. - And big! The living room has three couch's and four recliners and a huge Tv that takes up over half of one of the walls. The kitchen is glorious and the almost new utensils were shiny. The whole house is so wonderful. My eyes are huge and my mouth feels like it is on the floor. I glance at Nash and he smiles wonderfully at my reaction. I pull myself together and look at Samantha.

" Give her a tour of the house and show her to her room." Nash nods and turns to leave before pausing and turning back around.

" Can I try explaining to her in my own way?" He asks Samantha. She seems to know exactly what he means but I on the other hand am as confused and swan among geese. She gives him a suspicious look.

" What is your way?" she asks. Nash shakes his head and takes my head as he chuckles as if someone said something funny. He shows me around the house before he shows me to my room. I walk in and set my bags on the bed. Nash leans up against the door frame and studies me.

" Put on your bathing suit." He says and turns and leaves before I can speak a word of protest. He closes the door and I sigh opening my suitcase and dig out my bathing suit and bathing suit cover up. I quickly change into my bathing suit and tie on my bathing suit cover up -a dark purple tie on skirt that hung at an angle on my waist. I study myself in the full body length mirror. My bathing suit was black with golden poka-dots scattered over the fabric and is the only swimsuit that I own and unfortunately it happened to be a bikini. I open my door to see Nash in his swimming suit already. It is black with a white skull on the low corner of the right side of his swimsuit and hangs low on his waist. I look up and my heart speeds up. He is shirtless and a trail of hair lead from his navel and disappeared beneath the fabric of his shorts I swallow thickly forcing my eyes up. His abs and chest so glorious like valleys . I get caught in the beauty of this boy that's in front of me. This boy that I just met yet seem to be completely captive by him. My mind wanders and I can't help but wonder if he has a girlfriend and if she would be mad that I am in his house. Nash snorts quietly. So quietly I am not even sure he did it to begin with. My eyes move to his face just in time to see his eyes glide slowly down my body as if he were examining me. His gaze thickens and he meets my eyes a need in his gaze. I blush and he pulls away from the wall. He walks toward me and grabs my hands. He cages my body with his, my back is against the wall and he leans down. His nose skims my jaw and my breath gets caught in my throat, my heart feels like it's trying to break out of my chest. He laughs and straightens. He leads me through the house by the hand and into the back yard. I gasp.
