Small warning, this chapter is pretty intense and dark.
TESSA.
We drive up to the small trail, and begin our walk towards the lake. Last time I kept my distance behind him a couple feet, but this time I'm comfortable with hugging his waist close to mine as we walk. Damn, I wish we could do this at our own lake in Washington.
"Landon had to tell you to take me here? I'm surprised you didn't think of it on your own."
"What did I say about teasing?" He scolds playfully, and I chuckle.
Once we make it to the place, it looks more beautiful than the last time. It looks more taken care of. Hopefully no one shows up unannounced. That would ruin the moment.
"I miss the lake in Washington." I say, and he looks over at me.
"Me too." He then flings his shirt off and unbuttons his pants. I widen my eyes and look around to make sure no one is around here, although it's very unlikely. "Let's swim."
"Hardin, wait. I don't know if that's a good idea. What if someone comes over here?"
"Baby, no one is going to come out here. It's in the middle of no where." He presses, and I roll my eyes.
"How am I supposed to swim without a swimsuit?" He then smirks as he slips his underwear down his legs. He watches as my eyes trail down. He bites his lip, and I can tell he thinks he's won, "no way." I cross my arms and turn around. "No fucking way am I skinny-dipping. No. Nope."
I feel Hardin's hands rub my shoulders, and I keep shaking my head. "Please?" He purrs into my ear, and I take a deep breath.
"Hardin..." I whine, before huff and turning back around and kissing him. He presses for more but I pull away. "Go over there!" I say, pointing back a little ways.
He obliges, and steps back. He puts his hands behind his back and smiles at me. I try not to laugh at how casual he looks standing out in the wilderness butt-naked.
I keep my eyes down as I undress myself. Refusing to give into the temptation to look at him. This is not what I had planned when he said 'we're going to a lake' Although this plan isn't that bad...
"I don't want to get in. What if it's cold?" I ask Hardin as he looks me up and down.
"So, you're just going to stand there after you've already taken your clothes off?" He calls out my illogical thinking.
I hum, and look at the brown lake. I scrunch my nose up that it's not as clear as Washington's. "No, I'll get in..." I trail off and Hardin smiles walking over and throwing me over his shoulder.
"Hardin! No! Put my down!" I shout, but he only tightens his grip.
"We're jumping in!" He shouts back and I start to squeal as he begins to walk towards the deck.
