I heard a yip in front of me. I looked and Shadow while he was trying to tell me to come on. I bounced up to him. The clear water splashed me in the face as I neared the bottom.  When we reached the bottom of the valley he went straight to the waterfall and passed through it. I followed. Once pass the waterfall I emerged into a cave with crates lining the back wall. A narrower passage went deeper into the cave with a small stream trickling beside it.The whole cave was illuminated by the light of the moon. The water itself seemed to glow with a magical era. Jake went over to the crates and picked up some jogging pants in his mouth and went into the smaller cave. I didn't follow so I picked up some loose pants and a loose shirt while waiting for Jake to come out. I sat near the waterfall letting the water splash me. 

He emerged with no shirt on, and I tried my hardest not to drool at the sight. He even had abs. I mean what kind of women would you be if you didn't like a man with abs. His jet black hair was ruffled, and his silver blue eyes shone in the moonlit cave. He came to me and pet my head like you would a dog. I welcomed it because it kind of felt like he was playing with your hair. "If you go down that tunnel you'll come to a small pond. You can change in there if you like."  I nodded my head. "When your done we can go for a swim." I bounded towards the cave then, I love swimming and Jake knew it. I heard his laugh echo through the cave. Once at the end of the cave I gasped at the sight. There was a small opening at the top of the cave that let moon light in and as Jake said a small pond in the center of the cave. I walked towards the water wanting to see my reflection. And right there on my chest was a black wolf shape howling. The shape looked just like my necklace that Jake had given me. I'll ask him about it when I get done. I told myself.

I transformed and got dressed. I walked out of the tunnel to find the cave empty. I heard a huge splash from outside. I walked past the waterfall to find Jake just coming up from jumping in. His clothes at the waters edge. "Jake, why don't you have your clothes on." I said turning my head. 

"Haven't you ever heard of skinny dipping?" He asked in a teasing voice. I sighed a heavy sigh. 

"Well turn your head. Don't turn back around until I say so."

"Ok." He said without hesitation. I stripped down. I backed up to get a running start. I ran as fast as I could and jumped in right behind Jake, sending a wave of water over him. He ducked trying to avoid it. "Hey, what was that for?" He asked after I came back up.

"I don't know." I said shrugging. He laughed his heavy laugh. A small splash of water hit my face. "Hey." I said in an angry, but playful voice. I splashed him back and went underwater so he couldn't return the splash. I swam around him and came out of the water behind him. "Surprise." I yelled as I splashed him in the back of the head.  He laughed again. This went on and on for about and hour or so.  I stuck my tongue out at him and laughed. 

"I'm gonna get you for that." 

"That's what you said the last time." I retorted. He groaned in frustration as he swam after me. He grabbed my ankle and pulled me close. "So," I said trying t catch my breath, "you've been going easy on me?"

He shrugged, "Maybe." I laughed a little. I loved feeling the heat and strength of his body so close to mine. He kissed me, hearing my thought.
