Chapter Seven

Isolde tossed a crackerjack puff at me, and it bounced off the corner of my mouth onto the rocky sand lying beneath us. We skipped school that day and were sitting at a tiny creek on the other side of the football stadium bleachers of our high school. Snacking on junk food as we laughed, she tried her best to toss one into my mouth.

She was a terrible shot.

“You’re feeding the ants more than me! I’ll starve before midnight!”

“You might turn into a pumpkin by then!”

“Or a frog.” I reached out to tickle her sides, making her squeal as she struggled to get away. Crackerjacks popcorn went everywhere, tossed into the air where it landed on the banks of the creek, floating away in the tiny current rushing over smoothed over rocks and boulders. It wasn’t a large stream, but it had enough force to soak one through and through if we happened to roll into it.

Which we just had.

“Ah!” I felt the cold rushing over my thighs and rolled to my stomach, groaning even more. Isolde had gotten off with just her bottoms getting wet, but she was already hopping up and down, waving her arms out while flexing her hands in and out.

“Geez, that’s cold! My pants are soaked!”

I sat in the creek and shook my head. I would’ve found this funny if I weren't sitting in the water that could freeze off vital parts. I shoved off and got to my feet, slushing through the creek until I was back on the bank with a pool of icy water pooling at my feet. My sneakers creaked as I squished toward Isolde and pressed my body right against hers.

“You think you’re soaked, huh?”

“Not fair! You’re getting me more drenched! I’m freezing!”

“Hehe!” I laughed at her halfhearted attempt to shove me off.

“Okay, okay…you owe me! Time to work, buddy!”

I lifted a brow, confused. “Work? I thought we skipped work today. I had an exam in Mrs. Michaels’ class you made me blow off today. What work?”

“Your magic.” She poked me in the sternum narrowing her eyes with a mischievous grin filling her face, eyelashes afluttering. “You need to practice it, so get to it. Warm us up, fire boy.”

I grinned and bowed my head. “Yes, my wicked faery princess.”

She frowned at the remark, but I pulled her tighter to my chest in hopes of erasing it from her face. It worked as she squealed from the frigid water dripping off me.

“Ready?” I asked.

Isolde nodded, leaning her cheek against my chest. She was a dainty little thing, but more fiery than a fireball. I placed my chin on top of her head gently and closed my eyes. Her body warmed mine and sent tiny sparks of pleasurable energy to my very core. It only helped me kick-start my blossoming magic, igniting the flicker of fire within until it burst into flame. It sent a comforting heat to the surface of my skin, steaming off the excess water and warming our bodies simultaneously.
