Look Alive Sunshine -MCR killjoy fanfic

Chapter 7

The ride took at least a good hour.

I realized, that we were heading towards the farthest outskirts of the zones, out past zone six.

I had always wondered what was past these realms, but never had the chance to venture past the boundry of zone six.

But Party seemed to have the layout pretty well known.

I looked over, to see Jet staring out the back behind me.

"Nice handy work on that back window there Kobra."

I looked back as well, to see a completely new back window. It almost scared me, how unbelievably clean it was, compared to everything else out here in the desert.

He must've gotten a pretty good bargain, for a competely new window. Probably all the way from the factories of Better Living.

I nodded in approval, as I turned back towards the front.

As soon as I turned around, the car began to slow down. I looked over, to see that we were finally here.

Everyone filed out, already heading towards the lake. Party popped open the trunk, grabbing a bag, and swinging it over his shoulder.

He saw that I was still standing there, waiting for him.

"Well C'mon Ms.Black Nebula." He said.

I followed him all the way over there, the sand started to become more moist the farther we walked.

Out here, more trees even seemed to thrive. I was surprised that no other killjoys came out here to hang out.

As if Party read my thoughts, he said, "Way out here, killjoys don't even know this exists."

Ghoul came over, grabbing the bag from Party's hands. He chuckled as he ran off with it.

"Ever since the Helium wars, everyone refuses to go any farther than zone six, and even that is too far for some."

Party's smile was now a slight frown, his eyes holding an overwhelming sense of lose. I could almost see all of the memories flashing before his eyes.

He looked over at me, giving me a half-hearted smile. I tried to smile back, but found it to be somewhat difficult.

We walked the rest of the distance, the beautiful lake unfolding before my eyes.

The bright afternoon sunlight, reflected off the water, glimmers of sunlight giving the water a more gorgeous layout. The usually arid heat, was now subsided with the cool, refreshing breeze that blew up from the water.

I looked around, to see that the guys had already changed into nothing but a pair of swimming shorts.

Party walked off, joining the guys.

I looked over, to find Silver standing before me. She was watching the rest of the guys, as they commensed to change.

She looked back at me, letting out a light laugh. She shrugged, as she began to strip.

I shook my head, as she undressed, now wearing just her bra and bottoms. Well, at least for the most part she still matched.

She broke into a sprint, leaping onto Kobra's back. It almost made me faint, as I heard him laugh. He actually laughed...

As he spun around, her on his shoulders, I saw glimpses of Kobra, with a huge smile on his face.

Everyone else watched them, smiling brightly as Kobra and Silver laughed proudly.

Together, they ran off of the edge, jumping into the water. Ghoul and Jet laughed along, as they jumped in right after them.

My laughter stopped, as I instantly looked down towards my body.

Party came over to me, now wearing just his red, black and white swimming trunks.

"Why are you still dressed? Are you not swimming?" He asked.

"Well..Um.." I darted my eyes between me, then the lake. "I'm not sure Party..."

He smiled gently. He rested his hands on my shoulders. I felt miniature, and completely small under Party's shadow.

"Whats wrong? C'mon you need to come. I won't look okay?" He promised.

I didn't get the chance to answer, as he quickly turned away.

I sighed, as I decided to just do it.

I didn't like the look of my own body. I have always been tiny, so short and fragile.

Silver didn't seemed to be bothered by it, as much as I was.

I stripped, taking off all of my clothing, everything except for my black bra and matching underwear.

I tried to steady my breathing, as I finished undressing. I sighed lightly. "Okay Party." I announced.

He turned around, opening his mouth to say something. He drifted his eyes up and down my body quickly, but then up towards my face again in a second.

"You ready?" He asked.

"Wait, Party I-"

He quickly grabbed my hand in his, sprinting off towards the water.

"Jump!" He yelled.

A scream erupted from my lips, as he gripped my hand tightly, diving off the edge.

Suddenly, I was emerged in the cold water, deep under the surface. He unlatched my hand, allowing me to swim to the surface.

I wiped the water from my face, as I looked around at everyone else. They all smiled at me proudly, as they all began playing around.

Party was smiling widly at me. I smiled back, my tension realeasing its grip on me, as I joined the others.

We spent the afternoon, splashing each other, laughing and joking around.

We played water games, that I hadn't played in so many years.

The smile on my face never left, as we stayed in the water until the sunset. It lit the sky in a blanket of reds and oranges, igniting the clouds with whisps of pinks and violet. It was truely amazing.
