The feeling of the hot sun blazing through the blinds wakes me up this saturday morning. I sit up in bed, feeling happy. Its not everyday you get this gorgeous weather. But then everything comes back to me: Alfie,the party and of course-Indigo. I still cant get what happened out of my head. I hate that she fucks me up. I let out a deep sigh. I didnt see her at collage yesterday. Probablly off with Alfie somewhere. Why is she doing this?

I go downstairs to get some breakfast. My mother and father already at the kitchen table.

"Morning Jude" My mother says sweetly

"Morning mum" I smile back at her

"You want breakfast? I'll make you a full english" she says temptingly

"Sold!" I chuckle

As she starts frying bacon and egg, I sit opposite my father reading a newspaper. He looks up at me and I instantly know whats coming.

"Hows collage Jude? You up to scraps with everything? We wouldnt want you to get behind now would we?" He says nonchalantly but with a serious undertone

"Its fine Dad,quit interigating me" I say

"You cant blame me for asking, you've been acting really strange recently Jude. And whatever teenage bollocks it is, I dont want it interfering with your aim to become a lawyer" he says sternly

You mean your aim.I think it but don't say anything. It'll just create more drama.

"Yes.Okay whatever Dad. Are we done?"

He doesnt reply but instead picks up his newspaper and continues reading.

Mum doesnt like to interfere when me and Dad have our little tiffs. She hates confrontation. She lays down my full plate of english breakfast but suddenly i've lost my apitite. I dont want to dissapoint her so I try to eat most of it. Once I'm relatively done, I thank her and kiss her on the cheek while saying i'm off revising at the library. Which I'm obviously not. It's just simpler that way.

I quickly head up to my room to get my iPod and get changed into my Ramones band tee, layered with my vintage levi denim jacket and trusty grey shorts with my beat up old vans.

I run downstairs head out of the door and get on my bike. Headphones in, rest of the word out. Just how I like it.

I shuffle my iPod and get Bon Iver-Holocene. Perfect. It's soothing tones already clearing my head.

I start my bike ride, going slow at first, the people and trees blurring around me. Its just me in my own world. The heat of the sun shining on me as if it was clensing me. Ahh.

Now taking a proper root, I make a decision to go to my favourite place that no one else knows about. The lake. I go through the entrance, the trees leading up to this big lake. Twisting and turning my bike. The wind brushing up against me, ruffling my hair. I get there finally, the scenery never seizes to amaze me. It wasnt your average lake it was much more. The water clean,not dirty like you'd think. It was a large too. In the middle was a secure flat plaque of wood that when I was bothered, swam up to sometimes.

I was about to lie down on the grass, when something caught my attention. I saw a figure moving about on the plaque of wood, someone sun bathing I guess. Just when I was about to let it go the figure stood up, as if they knew someone was watching them. I walked closer towards the edge of the lake. I could tell it was a girl now,wearing a turquoise bikini. But it wasnt just any girl. It was Indigo. Fuck. I could tell she knew it was me too. We just stood there staring at eachother, not knowing what to do.

As if on impulse I started taking my clothes off, only leaving my shorts on as I swam into the water. Indigo shocked, shaking her head in utter disbelief. The water was cold on my bare skin. I then saw her jump into the water, me swimming towards her,her swimming towards me. We reach eachother as we grab hold onto eachothers faces before pulling into one another. Fuckk,my heart was racing like mad. Her lips were soft and my fingers tingling as i ran them through her hair. Oh how I've longed to do this. We continued kissing until I stopped to say something.

I breathe heavily and smile to see her face looking at mine, her eyes wide with my fingers still in her hair.

"Indigo, I wanted to tell you-" I say stammering on my words

"Jude" she cuts me off "I dont think I can-"

But before she can say anything else I pull her lips to mine again, making her feel what I feel. The way our lips connected. It was right. I was so content to feel her breath go in and out with mine. The world around us just stood still for a moment. As if what was happening froze and we were the only ones moving. Everything meaningless floated away from me- Dad,school, Alfie... Only then I finally, slowly, pulled away. I look down into the water, then back up at her, deep into her blue eyes.

" Now I've told you" I pause still looking at her beautiful freckled face, then after a moment I say " Now you know"

I walk backwards in the water,still holding her gaze. Her fingers were over her lips, her eyes still wide. I knew she felt it too. I turn round and swim to land, leaving her there, wondering what was going to happen next...
