Mount Olympus [4]

Nic

I smile back and go as far under as I can go.

Jackie

I follow him and close my eyes.

Nic

I stop after a while and wrap my arms around Jackie, creating a bubble of light around us so we could breathe.

Jackie

I smile and wrap my arms around his, glancing around.

Nic

I rest my chin on her shoulder, smiling back.

Jackie

I kiss his arm and sigh, looking at all the life around us.

Nic

I study her before looking around, "I used to come down here when I was little. After I was first claimed. Jace has his own little cavern thingy. I have this place. So much more to see. And it's cooler. You get to breathe underwater. Jace can't do that with his light thingies."

Jackie

I nod, "Yeah. S'beautiful."

Nic

I nod, "Like you."

Jackie

I blush but don't say anything, smiling.

Nic

I smile at her and kiss her cheek, sighing, "S'true, Jacks. I think you're the only girl I've had no desire to mess with. Like... the only one I've ever been okay with solely being with."

Jackie

I smile and twine my hand with his, "I can be honest with you right?"

Nic

I study her before nodding, "Of course."

Jackie

I smile, "When I first met you...I thought you were a player. Literally. Because of how you treated girls when you looked at them. But then...when, you took my necklace, I saw something in you that told me different. And now, I realize that I was wrong at first."

Nic

I smile stupidly, unable to wipe it off my face, "Well... to be honest, I kind of was a player before that day. And I'm glad you saw something in me. I've been see through for a long time, so to speak, because of what I've done and stuff. You changed me that day though. I didn't realize it until the party though."
