The Colours Between Us; g.d

Night Adventures-Hidden Beauty (2)

"Tada!" Grayson called out, removing his hands from my eyes as we end up at an unknown beach.

It wasn't even a beach. It was a large lake surrounded by a forest, hidden from the outside world. He parked his car as close as he could before shielding my eyes and making me walking for a minute to this area. 

It was a breath taking sight.

I look at the water before looking back at him. 

"We're not swimming, are we?" I asked him, curiosity and anxiety filling my voice. He looked at me and smiled, his teeth shinning underneath the moonlight.

I shook my head as I backed up. "No, no, no, most absolutely not!" I deny his crazy offer. "I am not about to catch a cold because some reckless greaser wants me to jump into the freezing waters of New Jersey."

He looked at me and chuckled before pouting. "Oh come on, don't be a candy ass." He teased me, taking off his jacket. "I have the entire night planned for us! I have towels and an extra change of clothes in my chariot, along with a bunch of other things for our adventure." He encouraged me, unbuckling his belt.

I block my eyes with my hands as he strips right in front of me. I felt the blood rushing through my cheeks, knowing that he is comfortably taking off his clothes in front of me.

"Grayson Dolan!" I scold, my hands still on my eyes. "Could you not undress in front of me, please." I asked, scared to move my hands.

Who does he think he is?

"Alright, Dolly, you can move your hands now." He said as I felt something being thrown at my head, when I move my hands, I notice that he threw his white t-shirt on me.

I take his shirt off from my face and look in front of me.

Woah.

I couldn't take my eyes off of his chest. His body was extremely defined and his tan skin complimented his muscles. 

It was almost as if God himself took extra time on him to perfect his features.

I didn't notice myself staring until he broke out into laughter. 

"Wow Kat, your hormones are finally de-rustin' themselves." He walked closer to me, a smile on his face. "I thought you weren't a teenager for a moment since you're always so proper and mature."

He steps back, walking towards the water. I look at him as if he's crazy.

"You're crazy, Grayson!" I yell behind him as he kept walking smoothly to the tides. 

"But I will be having fun while I'm in the water!" He yelled back, continuing his stroll. 

Ugh! He's so frustrating!

I run to catch up to him, jogging lightly as he walked naturally.

"You do realize that you will get extremely sick! Or get caught by the officers! Or-" He cut my sentence short when he turns to me, his hands cupping my face, staring into my brown eyes, squeezing my face, making me look like a blow fish.

"At least i'll have a story to tell my children." He said to me softly. "The whole reason we're here is to live for a single night. Do take risks, Kat; just for tonight."

Once he was finished talking, his thumb rubbed my cheeks in a caring motion before turning back to the tides and put his feet into the water, his jeans getting wet as he splashed the water lightly.

I cross my arms over my chest. I will NOT fall into his charm and manipulation, I refuse to be easy.

"Come on, Kat!" He yelled from the water. "It's warm here! I promised I won't do anything to harm you!"
