"This is it." i pointed at the street. "We don't really have a plan do we?" he put his hands on his hips. "No we do not." i looked around but there was no black van to be seen anywhere. "You've got to be joking." i sigh. "What?" he looked at me. "It's gone. The car is gone." i whined. "You don't remember what house you were by?" he said in a calm voice. "It was dark and i was bleeding out." i looked around trying to remember.

"Let's go." he grabbed my hand. "Where?" i asked. "To clear your head, maybe it'll come to you."

We walked through talk of town hands intertwined and finally got to where we wanted. "I come here when i want to hit something." he laughed. "Okay." "So this is a special place and you can't tell anyone about it." he added. "Okay." i nodded.

He finally stopped and we stood in front of a huge lake surrounded my large willows. There was fog laying atop the water and the breeze perfectly blew my hair out of my face. "So?" he looked at me. "It's pretty." i laughed. "Yeah." he walked over to the water. He unbuckled his belt and stepped out of his pants and soon after took his shirt off and tossed them both into a pile. I tried my best not to completely gawk over his toned body but after a couple seconds of staring he shouted over to me. "Come on." he looked at the water. "You're funny." i laughed. He walked over to me and for a second my body tensed.

"It'll be fun." he tugged at my my belt loop on my jeans. I laughed kinda nervously i was taken aback by his sudden boldness. "Fine." i caved. But who could say no to those eyes.

"Good." he scanned my face and picked me up suddenly. "Vance." i said calmly. "You throw into that water and i will beat the ever living shit out of you." i looked up to him. "I would love to see you try." he teasingly threw me up into the air and then dropped me into the lake.

The cold water made my skin pop up. I heard a splash next to me and opened my eyes to see a foggy Vance in the water. His hair flowed everywhere and i could only make out his eyes because of the blue. I shot up quick and he followed after. "I'm gonna kill you." i looked at him. "It would be an honor." he shook out water from his hair.

I wiggled out of my heavy clothes and swam over to the deep side of the lake. "So?" he asked me. I laid my head on the edge of the turf and looked up. "Nothing." i sighed not being able to remember much.

"Don't worry about it. It'll come." he rubbed the back of my head. I winced and lifted it a bit. His fingers were tainted red and he looked down at them worrying. "It's not as bad as  it looks." "Why is all this shit happening to us?" he tilted his head back. I watched his adams apple fall up and down every time he swallowed. "I don't know. But i wish it wasn't." i took a deep breath and plunged under water.

My ears were filled with water and i took a moment to appreciate the deafening feeling of it all. I looked up and the sun beamed down into the water leaving a warm feeling on my shoulder. I feel the water around me move and Vance is next to me. I look at him under water bubbles forming on his face and his hair floating about. I smiled softly and moved it out of his face. Our bodies began to inch closer naturally but by the time i could feel our legs tangling i smiled and shot up.

"Look." i whispered when Vance came up. The sun was setting and i looked up at the pink and yellow skies. "Deja vu?" he asked. "Major."

I watched as the clouds strolled pass the trees and they lake got a slight sparkle. "It's beautiful." i smiled. "Very." he spoke. I turned to look at him only to find his gaze already on mine. "I was talking about the sunset." "Yeah I know you were." his eyes trailed over my face. "Stop." i smiled and turned back to the sun.

"Vance you're just a big flirt." i rolled my eyes. "Only with you Y/n." he sighed and put an arm around me. I suddenly got a sinking feeling in my stomach. I don't think he's kidding. My eyebrows furrowed and i turned to him. "Vance don't do this." i felt him already leaning closer to me. "Why?" he backed up. "We don't even like, know each other." i stood up and got back onto the grass. "I know enough about you." he followed me.

I twisted my wet clothes wringing them out. "No you don't. And i'm still looking for Robin and i don't know shit about feelings. I would be horrible to you."

I began to put my pants on and he did the same not stopping his stare. "I like you." he laughed. "Vance no you don't." i looped my belt through. "Okay you saying that isn't gonna change my mind. Name 1 thing about you i don't already know." he shook his hair out. "I'm not playing this game with you." i put my shirt on and wrung my hair out. "I know you Y/n and i know i like you and i know i wanna be with you."

"Vance stop." i finally looked at him. "What? Is it me? Is there someone else? Do you just not like me like that? Cause i'll wait." he walked closer to me. "How many guns do i own?" i looked up at him.

"That's a trick question, none."

"I own 3 Vance. Two in the living room under the couch cushions and one in my room. In my closet under my vanity are shoe boxes the one in the middle holds a gun i got for my 12th birthday." "Since it's just me and my mom i own 3. She owns 3 more and we used to go out to the shooting range every Saturday before we moved to Denver." I said.

He looked at me in shock. "Okay."

"So i didn't know you owned guns, that's doesn't mean anything i know what matters." he came to me. "What matters is finding finn and robin." i said. "And i'm helping you with that." he grabbed my arm. "Don't make this difficult." i walked away. His grip got tighter. "You can't just walk away. I just poured everything out to you." "I told you i'm not good at this." "Okay me neither but we'll figure it out together." He pulled me back in.

I sighed. "You're stubborn as shit." i pulled my arm away. "That's my charm." he smiled. I couldn't stop looking at his lips. "I know you like me." he stepped closer to me.

I took a deep breath. "I'm gonna hurt you." i looked up at him but his hands were already on my face. "I don't care." he pulled me in and his lips landed on mine. I wish i could say it wasn't like the whole disney fireworks feeling but it was. His lips fit perfectly onto mine. I kissed him back and guided his hands down to my waist. The wind was cold and his body was shaking against mine. My hands went up to his head and dug into his hair. Finally when i pulled away i pulled with his hair and looked at his face. His nose was red and his mouth matched the color. His eyes trailed over my face examining it as well.

I really wanted to walk away but my body wouldn't let me. It only moved back towards him and pulled his head in for another kiss. This one more heated than the other. Both of our bodies were freezing and they needed heat. He picked me up and i wrapped my legs around his waist. He bit my bottom lip and i pulled away. "Shit. Sorry." he looked down at my lip and the metal taste filled my mouth quickly. I didn't speak but i only leaned back in and continued kissing him.

When i pulled away i looked down at his lips and they were dyed red. "Sorry." i got down and wiped my lips that were covered in blood. "I liked it." he stood in front of me. I got my sweater on and began walking. "Where are you going?" "I don't know." i laughed. "Is it awkward?" he ran after me. "I think so?" i turned around to face him. "That was my first time." he rubbed the nape of his neck. "Really?" i got closer to him. "Yeah." "I'm so sorry. It should've been so much more special than that." i touched his cheek. "I don't really care. I just like that it was with you." he moved my wet hair out of my face.

"Do you wanna be my girlfriend?" he asked me. "I'll get back to you on that." i walked with him back out into town.
