We walked together to the stream and everything he told me kept reminiscing in my head.

Look, I loved him more than anything. This feeling was just stupid but nice at thesame time. Now it all made sense. I completely understood that he was only protecting me all these while.

I was overwhelmed with joy when he said those words. Everything about that moment was beautiful.
"That place I took you to, yeah?" He asked interrupting my thoughts.

"Yeah."

He smiled. "You can come over anytime. With or without me."

I blushed. "I'm honored."

He chuckled lightly and reached out for my hand. I held him also till we stopped infront of the stream and he pulled his clothes off and for the first time like damn! The very first time I saw his body. He was just too perfect. Omg!

"Come on." He said throwing himself into the water.

"I'm behind you." I screamed back so he won't be bothered.

I reluctantly removed my clothes till I was just in my inners.

He was swimming already and I got into the pool. I didn't understand why I was shy. He then shouted to me. "Stop being shy. I've seen you before."

Ugh. "I know..... you didn't have to mention it." He began to chuckle and he swam closer to where I was standing.

"Come on."

I rolled my eyes. "I'm not a baby."
"Then proof it."

"Eek that's really easy." I joined him in the water and he shook his head. "Just wanted to take it easy on you."

"What?" I hit his arm and he dragged me under the water and that was how we swam and played together like kids. Oh well, I was comfortable being a kid around Trevor.

When we were tired, we walked out of the water and chose one of the trees seating under it. I rested on his chest. "You said your brother was late."

He chuckled. "Poor start."

"Heyy help me out. Wanted to start a convo."

"Yeah, we were three. I had an elder brother and we were really close till he died when I was ten. I missed him cause he was like that brother up there to my sister and I. Well he's gone. Damn we played alot in that spot that we had to name it."

"What name?"

"When my brother died, we discarded that name."

"Why?"

"He told us to and we had to. Now, it doesn't have a name plus we never told our sister about the spot but she didn't really care."

"Then, who were you referring to we?"

"Collins and I."
I was surprised that both of them have been childhood friends that means he had known Ahneeka for a long while. I already traced the memory lane.

"That means you've known Ahneeka for a while now."

He chuckled. "Aww you're jealous."
I blushed. Damn! yeah I was. "No I'm not. Just inquiring."

"I've known Collins all my life but she, I met her when Collins was mad about Madeline till she went to school. I've not known her for that long. A year plus."

"Better." I said under my breath praying he didn't hear me.
"I love you." He said and I closed my eyes in disappointment cause he heard me. I rose my head and looked into his eyes and he kissed my lips slowly. "It's getting cold." He said into my mouth wrapping his hand around me.
