"So, how was last night?" I try to say with a serious face. Anais looks at me wide-eyed. 

"So that's why you took so long to get back" she realizes. 

"We figured you'd need privacy" I shrug. 

"Was she good?" Blaze swung his arm around Zack's shoulders. "I'd want to hit that."

 I roll my eyes at this, feeling more annoyed this time. I noticed Zack clench his fist before walking to Anais and pulling her close by the waist. 

"No point hiding it when you two would spread it" Anais smiles. "We're dating now"

"No more girl time?" I pout. 

"Don't worry, kitty Cat. I'm still here" Blaze winks at me. 

"Yeah, you have Blaze, you'd love his company" Anais smirks and Zack laughs at this.

Blaze looks at me, worried. "We can explore the island more if you want"

"Oh, I don't think we can come with you, guys. We're going to the hot springs" Zack scratches the back of his neck. 

"It's fine. I'll enjoy Blaze's company" I coldly say as I grab my white bikini. 

"Rina, hey, I can come with you if you want" Anais calls me. 

"It's fine, you need some quality time with your boyfriend, I need to be less selfish" I smile. 

"Are you sure?" I nod in reply. 

I put a skirt over my bottom and left my top exposed. I'm not being slutty--It's just really hot today. 

Once Anais and Zack left with the others, I turned to Blaze. 

"Where to, babe?" I smile. 

"We're calling each other by that now?" 

"No, I'm determined to win the game"

"I see, and we're going somewhere secret" he simply told me while walking to the forest path. Nobody seemed to be heading there so I catch up to him and asked.

"Why are we the only ones here?"

"It's private property,  our whole family owns this island" he shrugs. I didn't act surprise, at least he wasn't a rich and snobby jerk. He's just a pervert.

"So, where are we headed?" I asked again.

"We're almost there, just wait." after a few more minutes I see a waterfalls, clear water and calm rapids. It wasn't high but it wasn't low either. 

"Wow" I breathed. 

"You haven't seen the best part. Leave your stuff here" he said as he took his shirt off and threw it on the floor. I didn't bring my phone in fear that it'll get wet and break. 

He helped my up the side, me slipping a few times. Once on the top, I took in the magnificent view. 

"Does this count as a cliff?" he asks. 

"Maybe" I shrug before realizing what we were going to do. "We're going to jump?!" I shout. 

"Yes, now let's go" he laugh. 

"No thanks" I smile innocently. He smiles back and holds his hand out to me. 

"It's safe, trust me. I got you" he assures me. I took his hand. I looked down and held his hand tighter. He started counting down and the fear grew bigger in the pit in my stomach. 

We jumped and all that fear turned into excitement as I scream into the water. I swam up to thank Blaze.

"See? Not so bad" he smiles. 

"Yeah," I smile back. We enjoyed the water a bit more. I really was enjoying his company. 

  I felt a sudden tug at my leg, making me yelp. Blaze popped out of the water, laughing at me. I frown at him and turned away, pretending to be mad. 

"H-hey, I didn't mean to scare you so much" he swam to me. I stayed silent until I felt his hands on my bare waist. He rests his chin on my shoulder and I could feel his hot breath on my neck. "I'm sorry" he whispers. 

I turn around and smile. I felt butterflies in my stomach and I let him pull me closer. "It's fine," I whisper back. 

We're just friends, right?  

No friends would be this touchy though

I pushed away the argument occurring in my head and rest my head on Blaze's.

"Where next?" I asked. 

"To a cave, baby" he smirks. 

"Dear Lord, don't let him rape me" I prayed. 

"Just so you know, I may have fucked other girls but, I will never force myself on you" he looked hurt. 

"I know"

He led me to the waterfalls and went through it. Behind it was a cave with it's roof lined with luminescent rocks. It was an out-of-this-world sight.

I looked around in awe. 

"It's beautiful" I gasp. 

"Everything beautiful with you in it"

"Even the trash?" I retort.

"If you were trash, I'd take you out" he smirks. 

I looked around a bit more and I even scared Blaze by hiding behind the tall rocks in it. 

"I've got a story for you" he starts after a while. "I like European food so I decided to Russia over there because I was Hungary. After Czech'ing the menu I ordered Turkey. When I was Finnished I told the waiter 'Spain good but there is Norway I could eat another bite'."

"Why don't some couples go to the gym?" I ask

"Why?"

"Because some relationships don't work out." I smirk, proudly. 

"Is that you rejecting me already?" he laughs.

"Maybe, let's head back, it's starting to get dark" 

"Yeah"

-*-

We were heading back home. It was a long ride back since everyone in the car was singing--TERRIBLY. After a while everyone else was knocked out. Anais was sleeping on Zack and Axel and the other boys were sleeping with their mouths open. 

Almost makes me want to put spicy sauce in their mouths.

Blaze and I were in front. He glances at me once in a while and this time I caught his eyes, cause we were at a stoplight. 

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing gorgeous" I laugh at his attempt to flirt. "You enjoyed it, right?" 

"Yeah, thank for taking me there," I looked out of the window. 

"It was my pleasure, Cat"

Soon enough I was asleep too.
