Death By The Lakeside

Chapter 2

It was morning when Charles and Erik woke up, but Charles woke with no one by his side, he had searched their bed,his fingers fiddling with the bed around them. No Erik. At first Charles panicked but the sound of water running into the bathroom reassured his breathing. 
"Erik? Erik are you alright?" Said Charles calling from the small bedroom they share. The noise of the shower blocked his voice so he went closer. He went into the bathroom and heard Erik singing. Humming their song. Something he did on their wedding day. Charles sat down next to the bath and closed his eyes as he listened to the shower, the water hitting skin and the sound of music coming from Erik, he too stated to him the tune as he swayed from side to side until the water stopped and so did the humming. The curtain drew open and honestly Charles enjoyed the sight.

Being in the shower proved no surprise that Erik was completely naked. 
"I like it" said Charles admiring Erik's thin waist and hips. The way that his abdomen was like a statue at those fancy art museums. Erik,his hair wet and dripping smiled and kissed Charles in the lips, those red cherry lips as his naked form touched charles' exposed skin. 
"okay now I need to get dress" said Erik letting go of Charles and placing a towel around his lower abdomen. Charles frowned and powted. He wrapped his arms around Erik's waist and stayed there. 
"awww but I love you naked" moaned Charles. Erik bent his head low to lick Charles' neck which made him let go. 
" and I hate when you do that" said Charles wiping away the seliva from his neck.

The air outside was warm and the smell was natural and organic. Charles was ready and so was Erik as they walked hand in hand down by the lake. They walked alone the beach, sinkimg their feet in the deep sand, Charles and Erik laid down their head turned to each other as they touched each others face. 
"this is amazing" said Charles his voice so soft and so pure. Erik smiled beaming all teeth making him look like a shark, he moved away loose hair from Charles' face so he could see his beautiful eyes. He kissed him on the noise and both of them moved a little closer. They were so close that they could almost kiss each other again but was interrupted by the sound of a group of teens headed their way. 
"oi, what are you lot doing on our beach!" It was a red headed boy,a slingshot on his right hand. A blonde haired girl came behind him and the other two boys who they meet before.

Charles and Erik got up slowly, Charles beside Erik at all times. 
"I'm sorry we didn't know, we thought this was a public area" said charles, his hand getting tighter in Erik's hold. The boy, Janos, held another knife in his hand outstretched aiming it again at Erik. Charles wrapped an arm around him. 
"drop the knife Janos,it's not worth it" 
"not worth it? Emma they are trespassing on our beach" said the red haired boy. 
"Enough, stop Azazel" it was Shaw again. A smoking cigar in one hand and a lighter on the other. He turned to Azazel than to Janos. 
"what did I tell you about knifes!" He said snatching the knives away from his friend shaking his head as he did. He smiled and wrapped his arms around Emma shoulders. 
"good to see you again" 
At first Charles and Erik said nothing but they only could blink at the group in front of them.

"well we're sorry for trespassing we'll go now, come on Charles" said Erik pulling Charles away but he didn't move but stayedwhere he was. 
"well if you must go than you must visit us sometime" said Shaw pulling Emma close to him. 
"okay" replied Charles. 
"good maybe tonight, see you there. Come on now" he called as the rest of the group, but for a little while Azazel stood there gripping tightly on his slingshot staring intensely at the two of them. 
"I warn you, come between us again you two will be..." 
"AZAZEL!' Come on" shouted Shaw. 
"you for lucky this time" he said before running towards the others.

Once they were in a fair distance between them Charles buried his head on Erik's chest and cried. 
"its okay,it's going to be alright,let's go back" said Erik gentle as Charles nodded silently. When they got back to the lodge Charles and Erik went straight to the bed. 
"I'm sorry Erik I panicked I didn't know what to do... I..."
"shhh, it's alright I'm with you remember, nothing can harm you when I'm here, we'll just have to go now don't we" he said in hush whispers comforting Charles as he closed his eyes,resting them for tonight.

Bang. Bang. Bang.

There was a knock at the door. Charles and Erik both jerked awake. Tonight. Tonight. Tonight.
