I took the few remaining steps toward him and planted my
bare feet on the river floor made up of dirt and millions of tiny
pebbles. Being this close to him, I was able to feel his hot breath on
my face and I leaned forward into the heat until our lips were mere
inches away from each other. Relief flooded through me when Kodi
closed the distance and smashed his mouth to mine. The sensation
was so much more intense in person that I struggled not to cry out.
The taste of him was like a drug to me and I couldn’t get enough. He
tasted of the wild mixed with a sweet saltiness that couldn’t
accurately be described. Electricity shot through me and I wondered
if he felt it too. The way he pulled my body flush against his and
wrapped his arms around me told me that he did. I kept one hand on
his warm bare chest and one hand wrapped behind his head, keeping
his lips on mine. We broke apart for breath and stood panting before
each other. I wasn’t sure if I should say anything or even if I could
have. I tried to gauge his reaction but found only the same shock that I felt myself. My hand still rested on his chest and I could feel his
heartbeat fluttering against my palm. His left hand covered mine and
his other drew me in for another kiss which I gladly accepted. The
euphoric feeling that being in his arms gave me was something I
wished could last forever.
“Hey Loverboy!”
We separated once again and found Stephen standing on the
opposite side of the river that I’d come from.
Kodi heaved a sigh and said, “Hey, Stephen. What are you
doing here?”
The tall boy smirked as he came further down the bank.
“Your mother called me. It seems she went upstairs to call
you two for lunch but were nowhere to be found. She thought I
might know where you’d gone. The sad thing is that I had no clue
where to find you. I just volunteered to look for you so that I had an
excuse to show up to your house for lunch. The fact that I happened
to run into you two was an unfortunate coincidence.” I couldn’t help but feel offended. “Unfortunate?”
Stephen gave me a sly smile and Kodi burst out laughing.
Had I missed something?
“What’s so funny?” I asked Kodi. He smiled down at me and
I fought to listen rather than drag him in for another kiss.
“He wasn’t trying to find us because he knew if he didn’t,
that meant more food for him. Stephen is a sucker for my mom’s
cooking. Or food in general to be honest.”
I laughed. Stephen really was a bottomless pit. Stephen
didn’t bother denying it and shrugged in agreement.
“It’s true. So you two can stay in the water and suck each
other’s faces off while I dispose of the leftovers,” said Stephen. Kodi
laughed and I blushed as Stephen made his way further upriver to
hop across a line of boulders to get to the bank where I’d left my
socks and shoes. As intriguing as staying here in
