The protector

Alone

Sitting down slowly at the edge of the bank I feel Alex's gaze on me. "Have you ever felt alone?" His voice is weak and sallow.

I think over his question and my family comes to mind or at least the people I once called my family. "Yes, I defiantly have." My reply is simple with no strings attached or what I think is not strings attached.

"How is it supposed to feel like." His voice breaks at the end as I listen to the water lap quietly at the shore.

"You feel almost empty maybe even a bit defeated. Almost like that little hole will forever rest in your soul. Reminding you of what emptiness feels like." My voice is soft but I know he has heard me because he breaths out loudly.

"In time that hole will grow smaller but it will never vanish. Form time to time it will return and you might remember the events that made that hole but this time you don't let it take control. You understand it and you will let it stay but soon it will fade and just sit alone like you once felt like." The cool morning breeze brushes over my skin.

"Just don't let the it control you because that when Pelops make the wrong choice and end up hurt or worse, dead. " Alex does not speak at first as he breath slowly.

"I feel alone." He whispers and I turn my head to look at him.

A few seconds of silence. "You're not. You're never alone, always remember that." He nods slowly as his hair falls into his blue eyes.

I stay quite as the birds catch fish from the blue water. I do not like the tension between us so I break it.

Stripping down my cloths I stare at the inviting lake and dive head in with my bra and panties still on.

The cold liquid runs across my body as I open my eyes see the under the water. Small blurry forms of large fish swim around in my view as little air bubbles pop out from my nose.

The hair on my skin stands on end from the freezer cold water as I break the surface with my head.

Alex panicked face is the first thing I see as I open my eyes. Cool water droplets sliding down my face.

His face relaxes the moment I am visible from land. "Come in." I yell over the sound of lapping water.

I swim out farther and duck underwater. The bottom of the clear lake is covered in all different kind of water creatures as I disturb the calm scenery around me.

My hair floats around me in brown waves of dark thick locks. Then another wave of something else ripples the water above me.

Popping my head up to the surface I find Alex's head bobbing in the water with his hair sticking to the side of his face.

His cloths lay unattended at the shore.

Swimming the other way to the small little island in the middle of the lake I hear Alex close behind.

Pulling myself up onto the small island almost large rock structure with trees I turn around as a massive smile molds onto my face.

Alex's eyes for the first time actually have a hint of brightness in them as I turn to run up the side of the large rock connected to the side of the island.

Water splashes from behind me and my bare feet touch rock. Gripping the top of the rock I climb to the very top in minutes.

The view is absolutely breath taking as I hear Alex make a small grunt behind me.

"Hermosa." I say in complete awe. I turn to Alex and he gives me an odd look.

"You speak German." I sigh loudly. "I was speaking Spanish." A confused look crosses over his face.

"Oh.....! What did you say?" I ask as the sun start to dry my wet skin.

"Beautiful." He nods.

"Hermosa." He whispers; his eyes still stay connected to mine. A feel a hot blush rise up to my cheeks as his blue eyes stay on mine.

He leans forward slowly and just as his lips are about to cover mine I shove him over the edge making him fall right back into the freezing cold water of the lake.

I hear him scream my name as I look down upon his small figure floating in the water.

I laugh and with a run I jump over the edge. My body is wrapped up in the freezing cold liquid.

My eyes snap open underwater and little bubbles escape my nose. Alex legs move in front of me.

I extent my hand out and pinch his leg. His legs almost kick me as he slowly swims away.

I pop up for air. "What was that for." He yells from a few inches away. "I thought you would like a little adventure, scare you a little along the way." I laugh as a smile cracks its way onto his face.

I swim towards him with water slowly sliding down the side of my face. The water ripples as my body cuts though it.

He smiles a heart warming smile that makes a grin spread its way onto my face.

I stop right in front of him; he lifts his finger up and traces the outline of my face slowly.

The water moves as his body shifts closer. His fingers dig into my wet hair as his eyes move to my lips. His chest touches my chest as his other grabs my side.

His fingers travel around my body before reaching my back and pulling me close to his rock hard chest.

My feet barely touch the top of a rock that is totally submerged in the lake.

His lips cover mine as the hand in my hair pulls me closer. His rough lips move over mine as his tongue pokes my lips to be let in.

His lips move away from mine as a gasp leaves my lips. A sheepish smile curves onto his lips.

"We should probably go to shore.". He chuckles softly as my voice comes out in short gasps.

"Sure." He says quietly as a smile plasters its way onto my face.

Sure...
