Split Mind

Trying to get payback

He came close his hot breath fanning my skin.

"I'm just gonna go, try and walk of the b***r you gave me." he said bluntly and I turned to looked at him shocked. Cheeks flaming red .He just smirked, winked at me as he walked away, limping as he did and I gulped. Damn he is so hot. I cleared my throat very loudly to stop visioning it .

I turned to Sasha who looked exactly like she should. I went knelt down next to her and pulled her closer to me I dont know why but i needed the comfort.

It took Cory a while to.. like he said walk it off. We had some food and i was just packing up. I zipped the bag and stood up no longer knowing what to do but not wanting to leave. I put my hands through my hair sighed heavily watching Sasha pretending to be a frog for Cory and Maggie picking flowers. Its so peaceful here I really wanted to build a house right where I stood. Frog Sasha caught a bug and ran over to me to show me. When she opened her hands the cricket lunged at me. I underestimated how close I was to the edge that and the fear of bugs had me landing in the water. Sasha blew up with laughter as i frantically scanned my body for the cricket. Soon enough Cory joined in.

I stopped searching and glared at both of them. Cory suddenly stood up and came to me with a smug grin on his face i wanted nothing but to wipe it off his face. At first i refused to take it then his smile changed to a ' come on' and an idea popped in my mind. i took his hand and stood up but i didn't let go of his hand. I pulled him to me. Shock registered on in his face but i didn't let him process what was going on. I didn't think it was enough since the water was only up to his knees so I went closer to him and stood on my tippy toes just so i can be as close to his face as i could. I leaned in with my hands on his chest fluttering my eyelashes looking him in the eye. It wasn't long until he was leaning in too just then i knew i had him and my smug smile appeared. I pushed him as hard as i could and he fell back on his ass.

I laughed wholeheartedly which seemed to calm his shock and soon Sasha joined me. I reached out my hand giving him the same 'come on' look he gave me. He didn't hesitate though he just took my hand with the weight he put on it i thought he was trying to get payback and a thought of ' we'll be here all day' ran through my mind but he never did he just stood to his feet looking rather happy. He then kicked water in my face and we started playing around. Sasha jumped in the water too. Cory stepped out and i thought he was probably giving us time to bond. He walked over to the tree and started taking off his clothes leaving only his seamless boxers. He had a body of someone who used to work out the muscles went screaming at me but you could see they were there and with water rolling down his skin i gulped down my throat suddenly dry. His green eyes locked with mine and i looked away quickly watching sasha practice her swimming,

he came back and joined us again.

Maggie doesn't really large bodies of water but put her in a tub she is the happiest, She took alot of convincing to get in. Sasha was bobbing up and down in the water to show her what fun the water was. Cory was sitting by the edge just watching me enjoying the sun. Maggie took off her shoes and socks. Dipped one foot in the water to check the temperature and she winced. The water was warm since it was so hot but the temperature was not what she was used to. I'm not an I'll wait and see what happens mom I'm more of an I'll shove you in there and see what happens mom so i got out of the water soon as i did i could feel my leggings cling to me like a second skin. I bent down and tooked Maggie in my arms and headed back to the water. At first she was holding on to me for dear life and i just thought she'd like it the moment she got a taste so i lowered myself into the water and she started to cry holding on to me even tighter. I didn't want to.push further seeing as her eyes looked like they'd pop out of her head. So i put her on dry land and she looked relieved. She sat down just watching.

The sun went down and we set up camp there. Cory was walking better saying the water helped so he went and to go find Fire wood limping a lot less than before. Me and Sasha got out of our wet clothes and i started getting ready for dinner.
