Chapter 8

Chrissy's P.O.V.

"1 AM. It's 1 AM and I'm going to follow some dork to god knows where." I laughed at how ridiculous that sounded while pulling a gray sweater over my head. The door was shut as quietly as I could and the leaves crunched under my Vans as I ran to the other side of the house.

About to rush around a corner, I bumped right into Luke, who was still grinning at me, gesturing me to be quiet, as we'd get in trouble for being outside at this time.

"What the..-" he put a finger on my lips, then grabbed my hands and we ran. We just ran and I suddenly felt unfamiliarly free. The chilly late summer midnight breeze blew through my hair, I had Luke running in front of me, trying to keep up with his speed.

After a few minutes I felt tickling grass on my bare legs, making me notice we were at the border of the woods. Every time my feet touched the ground, I felt like we were running faster and then, all of the sudden, the overwhelming beauty of the nightsky hit me.

I had closed my eyes for a few seconds, when I bumped right into Luke again. The strong boy he is, he caught me without falling and wrapped his arms around me. "This place is amazing!" I shouted under heavy breaths, my eyes squinted of laughter.

His chest widened as he inhaled the fresh air, then I felt him grabbing me by the shoulder and turning me around. I caught my breath, exhaled deeply and opened my eyes, making me gasp for air even more.

The millions of stars reflected on the smooth surface of an enormous lake that spread all across the place in front of my widely opened eyes. Only then I realised we were standing on a wooden boardwalk, the edges were covered in seaweed. The stunning atmosphere was taking my breath away and I could've stared at it for ages, but I felt movement behind me.

I turned around to see Luke shoving his jeans and the black shirt off his Body.. He grinned at me and within a second, he started running again, this time down the boardwalk. A loud and manly shout of joy escaped from his mouth, followed by a splash of water that reached everywhere.

I let my lungs fill up with cold air, followed his actions and stripped off my sweater, leaving me in only a black bra and my pyjama shorts, but I couldn't care less about nudity right now. Sprinting down the boardwalk as well, screaming as loud as I could as my body was about to cannon into the ice cold water.

The adrenalin rush increased my heartbeat within a second while the cold water surrounded my body.

After resurfacing, my eyes scanned the area for Luke, who was watching my every move. Slowly but surely we started to swim towards each other and stopped only leaving about 1 inch between our faces. His now full of admiration looking eyes mirrored the full moon and under water I could feel his hands brushing against mine every now and then.

And that's the moment when our lips collided, setting fireworks free inside of my belly. Both our bodys tensed up and we sunk under water, not seperating for one point of time. Our mouths moved in sync, which made me realize how much I've wanted this. His hands fished for my hips as I ran mine through his blonde locks.

We resurfaced after what felt like forever, since we were humans and we needed air. He breathed heavily, but I crashed my lips onto his again. Whenever his skin connnected with mine, it felt like a little infinty, like this was our place, like all of this was meant to be. "Luke" I breathed out, hardly keeping myself above the surface.

He got the signal and somehow carried me towards the boardwalk. I used my very rest of strenght to drag myself out of the water, before I sat on the edge of the boardwalk and collapsed on Luke's chest, which rose and fell at frequent intervals.

I started chuckling and flipped over so I could face him. "That was breathtaking.." The words escaped from my mouth, curling his into a smile. "Oh why thank you." he laughed and wrapped his arms around my upper body. "You're cold.." his expression got worried and his hands seeked my sweater which he pulled over my head and down my chest after he helped me get up.

Getting onto my tiptoes, I stared into his eyes, our foreheads touching, when all of a sudden a blindingly bright flashlight appeared.

"Luke?.. AND CHRISSY ???"
