In the Wave

Chapter 8 The Kiss

Alexander's P.O.V

I kissed her.

I felt a harsh sting on my face, she slapped me, she f*****g slapped me. I have met quite a few feisty women in my life. But this was most definitely new, most girls I know or I have done that to the immediately start falling all over me why was she not.

Jessica's P.O.V

He kissed me, without my permission. Sure it was the best kiss I had ever had, but you don't just launch at a girl's face unannounced. And before I even realized it I had slapped him, I didn't mean to it's just my body's natural response so can you blame me. No, no you cannot. Sure given the chance to not smack him I wouldn't have, because I mean come on that was a good kiss. I decided it was best to stand up, and leave the room before things get awkward. 

I ran out of the classroom and out of the school and made my way home. And because my sister drove I had to walk back because she had the keys, but it's probably better that I walk anyway.

###

After a good ten minute walk home I ran all the way up to my room and plopped myself down onto my bed lying there staring at the ceiling. Oh boy this day has been a little too eventful and intense for my taste, maybe I'll go surfing later to help.

Alexander's P.O.V

After school was over I went to the gang house to see if one of my guy's can track down where Jessica lives so I can apologize to her. I really hope she doesn't hate me, I couldn't live with that. After I finally arrived at the gang house I walked in and yelled for one of my best hackers.

"Kara, Kara, come on I have a job for you to do!"

I yelled throughout the house, causing her to come running down the stairs. 

"What do you want?" She asked me in her usual sassy tone, which unlike most people I didn't mind because it means that at least one person around here has the balls to actually stand up to me sometimes. 

"I need you to find a girl, her name is Jessica Maverick, she goes to the same school as us. Just find out where she lives." I say turning away to let her start working her magic.

"Done." She says turning back towards me.

"That was fast." I say to her.

"Not my fault I'm just that good. Also this is the address." She says handing me a piece of paper, then going down the stairs to the training room.

### 

After driving towards the address Kara had given me. I sat in my truck not sure how exactly to apologize to Jessica. But I ended up getting out anyway. I walked up to the door and rang the doorbell. A few seconds later a girl with blond hair and bluish greyish eyes. She was wearing a white skirt and a pink sweater, and she looked a lot like Jessica. I'm guessing it's either her sister or her mom looks way too young to be her mother though. 

"Can I help you?" She asks me.

"Umm yeah, does Jessica Maverick live here?" I ask hoping that I got the address right.

"Yeah, but she's not home right now. But if you are looking for her she's at the beach, probably surfing. So you can find her there." She says then closes the door. So I hop back into my truck and head to the beach. 

Once I get there I see Jessica laying on top of a surfboard soaking up the sun. Well here goes nothing. 

Jessica's P.O.V

I was sitting on my board tanning in the sun when suddenly I felt a shadow hovering over me. I opened my eyes to see Alexander standing right in front of me blocking the sun from tanning me.

"Look Jess I wanted to apologize for kissing you, I know I probably shouldn't have done that. And so I just wanted to say I'm sorry." He says kind of nervously. I can't believe I'm actually about to do this, but oh well. I stood up and then couldn't stop myself from talking. 

"No don't apologize it was my fault, I shouldn't have slapped you, you just kind of freaked me out when you suddenly out of nowhere kissed me, so really this is all my fault when you think about it, but lots of things are my fault. Hell global warming is probably also my fault. Same reason that some animals are going extinct, I mean the list goes on and on with things that are my fault, even stuff like..." He cuts me off cupping my face and kisses me yet again, I really don't know how I keep getting myself in these situations. Honestly what the f**k is wrong with me. How does this keep happening? Weird I'm getting kissed by a really hot sexy guy and all I'm thinking about is how messed up I am, I guess it just proves my point then. When he finally pulls away I feel my legs become like jelly, very fragile.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to, I just didn't know any other way to get you to stop talking I mean I get it if you don't want to be around me ever again. I mean there's only so many surprises one person can take so I get it I ge..." Next thing I know my lips are on his again. 

I pull away and see his face extremely surprised, with a hint of happiness in his eyes.

"What were you not expecting even a little bit of payback." I ask him, causing him to shake his head. He then picked up my board and grabbed my hand lacing his fingers through mine, I don't know why it just felt so right. He pulled me over to a truck, put my board in the back of it, then picked me up and placed me on the tailgate and then gently kissed me. He then helped me down, kissed my forehead and opened the door to the front seat and lifted me in before going around to the other side then driving me back to my house.
