Missing You - Samara Fitzgerald (english novels for beginners .TXT) 📗

a few hours of chasing deer, catching them, we went home." Then he stopped. I can tell something happened. I knew that there was more to it. But I am not going to force it out of him. Even though he was looking down, I can see the sadness in his eyes.

"Let's do what I brought you here for." he said as he smiled and stood up. He took off his shirt, now showing his bare skin, but he kept on his shorts.

"And what are we doing, exactly?" I hope it is not what I think he is talking about.

"This." he said as he took off his shoes and socks and jumped from the edge of the waterfall into the water. For a second, I thought he wasn't coming up, but then he came up. I was a little relieved he wasn't talking about sex, but this was crazier.

"Come on." he yelled up at me as he moved his hair out of his face.

"Are you crazy? I am not jumping in there."

"Do you know how to swim?"

"Yes."

"Then what is the problem?"

"I am not jumping off any cliff."

"Why are you so dull? Don't you do anything fun or daring?"

"Yes. I did daring things before."

"Like what?"

"I rode a roller coaster. Jessica basically had to drag me on it, knowing my fear for them."

"You're kidding, right? I see why you don't have a boyfriend." I know he didn't just go there.

"What is that supposed to mean. I can get a boyfriend if I want. I just chose not to get one. But you know what, I'll do it." I took off my shirt and pants, leaving me only with my bra and underwear. I looked down at the water. I didn't notice how far up I was until now, causing me to get a little nervous.

"Come on, Ebony. You can do this." I thought to myself as I jumped. As soon as I landed in the water, I almost panicked, but then I realized I was alive so I swam up. When I reached the surface, I didn't see Logan anywhere.

"Logan?" I looked around, but I didn't see him. I know he didn't just ditch me again. Next thing I know, I feel someone touch my side. I quickly turned around and see Logan standing there.

"What the hell Logan. You almost gave me a heart attack."

"Sorry. But wasn't that fun?"

"Which part? The one almost gave me a heart attack or the jump?"

"Haha, very funny. I'm talking about the jump."

"It was okay." I said as I pushed my hair out of my face.

"Just okay?"

"Yeah. It was just a jump."

"Yeah. Okay." He said sarcastically as he starts getting closer to me.

"What are you doing?" I asked as I backed up.

"You remember at the practice? I told you I would get you back."

"No. don't you dare." I said as I backed up some more, laughing.

"Watch me." he said as he smiled.

"Well, before you do anything, my mom is here." he looked behind him. I looked over at the waterfall. I ducked back in the water and swam towards it. I knew I got to it as soon as I felt little pounding in the water. When I got back up, I was in front of the waterfall. I turned around and Logan is standing right there. I almost screamed when I saw him.

"Are you still trying to get a heart attack again?" I said as I put my hand on my chest, trying to slow down my heart beat. He starts laughing.

"That is not funny."

"Really? I thought it was hilarious." he said as he stopped laughing, but still smiling.

"Well, no it wasn't." he start moving closer to me.

"You know you look so cute when you're mad." he said as he is right in front of me. I tried backing away, but I was already against the rocky wall of the waterfall. He brushed a strand of my hair out of my face. I can feel my heart beat fast.

"We can't Logan."

"We can't what?"

"We can't do this."

"Why? I want it to happen and I can tell you do too because your heart is beating fast." I was about to ask him how he know, but then I remembered he is a werewolf.

"I know, but that doesn't matter. This is wrong. You are 3 years older than me."

"I don't care. It's what you feel that matters." he steps closer, leaving, no space between us. My heart is beating faster.

"Now the question is, do you have feelings for me?" he asked.

"I-I don't know. I have to go." I tried to walk away, but Logan wouldn't move. I looked him in the eyes and the urge in me to kiss him wouldn't go away, so I did what surprised me. I kissed him and he kissed me back. The same strange feelings start coming back. He backed away, causing me to feel a little disappointed. He can tell, but he smiled.

"Let's go." he said.

Chapter 13

After we grabbed our clothes, he let me wear his shirt, which was long enough to be a short dress. We walked back over to the elevator and when we got on, he clicked a button.

"Where are we going now?"

"Back to your room."

"Oh." I said a little disappointed. I guess he really took me serious when I said I have to go. The elevator opened and we walked into the suite. I looked in Jessica's room and I see she is not in there.

"Well, I guess I will you see you later or tomorrow." he said as he start walking toward the elevator.

"Wait, you leaving me now, all alone?" he turned back to me and smiled.

"At least don't leave your shirt." I said as I smiled back.

"Of course I wouldn't leave you." he said as he walked up to me and kissed me. I kissed him back as I wrapped my arms around his neck. We walked back to my room and ended up falling on my bed. I couldn't help laughing and he laughed too. He stopped and looked at me and smiled.

"You are so beautiful." he said. I giggled and we kissed again. Things start getting heated and a part of me was thinking "What am I doing?" I shouldn't be here with him or like this with him, but there is something, this desire, that is running through me. He is a pain in the ass, but an attractive pain in the ass.

"Ebony?" I opened my eyes to see mom standing there in my doorway.

"Mom?!" I quickly pushed Logan away and sat up.

"What in the world is going on?"

"Mom, it's not what you think..." I looked down and see I still have on Logan's shirt and all Logan has on is his pants.

"Well, it may look like what you think, but I swear nothing happened." I said to her.

"What is going on?" Next person who comes in is Sita. This is so humiliating, I feel like dying from humiliation. I look over at Logan, who was sitting up too, and see he is a little embarrassed too.

"Logan, what have you done? I am so sorry about this, Laura."

"We need to talk, Ebony." mom said sternly. I turned to Logan.

"I'm so sorry for this. Can we talk later?" I said low enough for only him to hear.

"No, I'm sorry. I'll see you later." he touched my hand softly before he left out. Sita followed him and both of them got on the elevator. Mom sighed and sat next to me on the bed.

"I'm sorry I yelled at you like that, but we need to talk."

"What is it, mom?"

"You and I need to talk and I think now is the time. What is going on between you and Logan need to stop, and I mean now." what she just said hit me like a ton of bricks.

"What are we doing now?"

"This fling that is going on between the two of you. You think I don't notice, but I do."

"Mom, there is no fling going on between the two of us. Besides, it's none of your business what is going on between us." mom looked taken back from what I have said.

"I'm sorry mom. I didn't mean it like that." I said.

"I know. It's just I don't want you to get distracted. You have a lot of practice to do. I'm just trying to keep you safe."

"Mom, I can take care of myself. And why would I need protection from Logan? All Logan did was help me."

"And you sure all he did was help you? Or is there something else going on between the two of you?"

"Mom, we kissed, that's it." A part of me knew I was lying. Mom looked at me for a while, as if I was lying.

"Fine. I have to go. I just came up here to check up on you, but I see you are fine. But don't forget what I said. You have to concentrate on this. Venomar is a stubborn guy, and he will not give up so easily. You will have to destroy him." she said as we walked to the elevator.

"Mom, I can do this."

"I know you can." she said as she hugged me.

"Oh, and make sure you give Logan back his shirt." I looked down and I feel my face heating up. She smiled and got on the elevator.

"Wait... mom? Does dad know about us? About our powers I mean." Mom starts looking sad.

"Unfortunately, no. I never told him. That is why I haven't been here in a long time. I had to choose to either keep the both of you safe and leave or stay and put the ones I love in danger. But it look like I didn't accomplish that." she said as the elevator door closed. I went to the living room and turned on the TV, even though I wasn't paying attention. All I was thinking about was what mom said. I know I should be listening to her and staying focused without distractions, such as Logan. But I can't because a part of me knows that no matter what, there will always be a connection between us and the feelings I'm feeling will never go away, no matter how hard I try to get over it.

Chapter 14

After an hour of watching TV, I hear the elevator door open. I looked behind me and see Jessica and Josh getting off. Jessica looks over at my direction.

"Ebony? I almost didn't see you." she said all excited.

"I have to go." Josh said.

"Right now?" she
