Time after time(Jordan)

[Max Pryce]

Max smiled at the correction which was established by Jordan. It was her who must make him happy. Which shouldn't be too hard with the beach at her exposal. If there was one thing Valkyries were good at, it was fighting and water. Taking a deep breathe she sunk herself down into the water before slowly coming out of the beach water, her green eyes shining with the reflection of the light. It was almost in slow motion, as she began to flip her hair back and forth. Holding her hand out she waited for Jordan to grab it.

"Up and out! I have a great place for us to go next, if your game for it?"

Max made sure game was clearly heard to emphasize the sense of competition.

Jordan had thought she had went down permanently, but was relieved when he saw her climbing out of the water and he was watching her enticingly as she was swishing her hair back and forth. She was attractive, and he believed that she knew this. Jordan followed, sinking beneath the water and swimming towards the shore. He was now staring up at her in her deep green eyes. Her sense of competition was surreal, but indeed, he was game for it. He smirked and watched as she was walking away from the shoreline. Clearly, he was willing to do whatever. In the entire time his mind had only thought about that minute and nothing more. It was a relief and Jordan appreciated such. "I'm game." he repeated in her same tone!

Max slowly started to walk up to her stuff, grabbing her bag as she started to make her way up to the dock, not too far from them. That's what was so great about this place, easy access. Max turned her head.. making sure Jordan was still there. She couldn't help but smile every-time she saw him like that, well anytime she saw him at all. He basically had her in the palm of his hands right now, but he would never know that. It's something Max would call playing it cool.

Her eyes moved to the dock manager who was kinda heavy set and old but nice as ever. Max began to explain the situation and he nodded, showing her to the canoe. As she started to walk in the brown canoe, with the two paddles already in, Jordan was stopped.

The manager smiled at jordan as he placed his arm on his shoulder. He then spoke in a sincere voice.

"That's one beauty you got there, your one lucky guy..that's for sure."

Max got settled as her smile directed at Jordan, waiting for him to get on the boat.

What was he doing here? He had set his mind on a simple day at the beach under a tree and on the rocks, but all of that seemed to have changed, and he had found himself under the charms of another woman and following her and the charades she had apparently prepared. Jordan had walked slowly behind her, with each step he was contemplating what exactly was going to be the consequence of such an action, his feet sinking into the moist sand with every heavy set step. He had realized that they had come up to a place with canoes and a man, built, was overlooking everything as they had approached. He had stopped him, and his words were merely shrugged off and little was said about her being his girl. He was unsure of the prospects, he still had a lot on his mind and the walk had made him come to that stage of thinking again. But he had his game face on, allowing himself t follow behind the girl with a smile and positive attitude. Without much effort, he too had climbed into the boat and sat just opposite the girl. He had saluted the manager who was still standing at the place and Jordan was a bit skeptical of him. He smirked. "Do you do this often?" Jordan questioned, he had always come to the beach for a few things, and such was not one of them. But he was slowly coming to the realization that it was not bad, not bad at all. And once again, from him thinking about the troubles that were slightly overwhelming, her was back to the right now moment.

As Max watched Jordan and the man interact, she waited for him to get into the canoe. Once he did dhe started to paddle and vice versa. The waters were good enough and the sun was out, so she thought why not? Memories of being on a canoe with him resurfaced as she took a deep breathe and tried to hide the sadness in ehr face before giving him a smile. As she heard his question, she chuckled.

"Nope..I usually don't take men with me while I canoe, I'm not some kinda slut?"

As the silence lingered, Max made an angry expression before reverting back to a smile.

"I'm just playing...I just like to be able to go to a place where I'm not judged and that's why I love it out here."

Putting her paddle in the boat--she noticed they had went pretty far but that was okay. Resting back her head, she looked up at the sky.

The canoe seemed to smoothly maneuver its way across the sea. Oddly enough, this side of the water was much calmer than he had thought, the waves near the rocks where they had come from was quite deceiving. He had continued to ignore the man, and isntead put his focus on paddling the canoe from his side. He was staring down at the water as the canoe split it in half and a ripple of water flowed back together. He admired such a small but chilling beauty. The words from the girl didnt go unnoticed as he looked up at her with a surprised look. "I...I..." He was about to speak when she had added that she was only joking. He was rather relieved, looking away for a bit to chuckle as he then added, "Oh, well thats rather nice." Jordan added, before he sighed, noticing that she had stopped paddling and was staring up into the sky. He followed suit. The day was drawing to a close, and so the sunset was beginning. It gave the entire feeling on being out on the water a different atmosphere. He took a breath and continued to enjoy the sight. "It's beautiful isnt it?" He said in a calm still voice as if not to break the intimacy of the moment.

Looking to the skies was like looking into a future that changed so rapidly, you just had to watch it unfold. Max listened to the sound of nature which was so peaceful and so comforting. The thing about nature was, it was there to help you. Max never understood how you can't like the outdoors. Now, I'm talking tree huger but just laying back on a canoe and just thinking about everything was awesome. As jordan mentioned how beautiful it was, she smirked. "Yea, it is." Being with him gave her butterflies in the pit of her stomach and she just wanted to roll over and kiss him. The feel on his lips on hers was running through her mind, the touch of their skin together. Max just breathe and try to hold in those urges.

[jp]

Jordan had stared blankly into the sky for what seemed like a countless time. His eyes now glaring and reflecting the light that was being emitted from above him. He had become somewhat soft spoken and reflective. His mind, rather being bombarded, this time, however was much more calm and relaxed and somewhat, somewhat unusual. He allowed himself to roll over a bit and stare down at the water that they had been floating on and it had hit him them. Without much more than a second thought, Jordan gripped tightly onto the edge of the canoe and within a few seconds, overturned the vessel so that the two of them was loose in the water. Jordan was laughing aimlessly as he had caught and floated on a paddle that was closest to him. His eyes had met with Max's as he did so, but he quickly brushed it off as he pushed the other paddle her way instead. Strange. Something in his gut was telling him that this girl...was unusual. "Okay okay! I'm sorry...accident?" he said in a coy voice as if predicting what she was going to say. "Just dont shoot lightening at me!" He said in a joking voice, until he had reflected on what he had said. He then quickly added, "Well...you know what I mean by that right? Like, like dont hit me...not lightening...of course not lightening!"

As she was in her peaceful mode, she felt a shake as turned flat on her face, herself screaming in surprise. The cold water rinsed on her skin as she slowly came up from the darkness and into the light. The sun was shining so brightly and made the whole mood even greater. Looking at Jordan laughing made her smile even more. She loved the way he smiled and the way he laughed. I know it was corny, but she would literally do anything for this man. (Something she doesn't like to mention often, takes away from miss Independence.) As there eyes met, she couldn't help but calm herself before the paddle moved toward her arms in which she held unto. It wasn't really necessary but a nice gesture. As he started to ramble, she heard words he might have wanted to take back. He had a clue she was something other than ordinary, but probably didn't know fully well. "Yea..I understand, I mean if anybody knows about sparks..it's you Mister Pryce." her body floated closer to his as she was inches away from his face. Temptation was rising, and she needed to just keep the strength. (If he is into me, I will feel his lips on mine and if he isn't...he will turn around?)

[jp]

The chill of the water against his bare chest and now dried pants was also shocking to him. But he held back the tremble and instead allowed the heat of the moment to take control of him. Jordan raised an eyebrow at the woman's reaction and he had caught a hint that this little accident meeting was something more than just a boy and a girl who may be attracted to each other having fun. Jordan had removed the paddle from in between them, and instead pushed it toward the canoe that was still overturned. The moment seemed perfect as she had come closer to him, and only a mere inch of water separating the two of them. This was strange, normally Jordan would have a deeper sense of control, but he had lost it suddenly as he had pressed his lips against hers, closing his eyes and then allowing himself to pull away slowly as he had realized what had happened. He didnt regret it, and so he didnt apologize.

[Max Pryce]

The feeling of his lips crashing with hers was like fireworks going off in her head. The touch of his lips were so soft and made her weak. Not in a bad way but weak for him. He was her weakness and he knew how to get to her, even when he didn't know it. (Did that make sense?) As he moved back from her, she opened her eyes..still in shock. Her soft index finger, traced his lips..as she came closer. A smile crept on her face at this moment and she moved in for the kill. Wrapping her arms around his neck, their lips started to mesh, her tongue colliding with his as she just closed her eyes..loving this. She never thought she'd get a chance to feel like this again, and now it was happening.

[jp]

Jordan had fully embraced her kiss, allowing himself to kiss back just as passionately. He couldn't believe what was happening in the back of his head, but he didnt stop anything from happening nonetheless. He then smiled, allowing himself to stare into her eyes and then back towards the overturned canoe. Maybe...maybe it was time for them to leave now. There was a lot going on in the back of his head and all of this emotion and feelings he had for the girl was really taking control of him. "Maybe...we should go." he said finally, as he had loosed his hands that he had placed her around her neck when he was kissing her. The kiss was warm, passionate and seemingly familiar, which had added to everything.

[Max Pryce]

"Maybe...we should go."

The words hitting her out of the trance-like state as she stared at him. She was happy and shocked at the same time. Happy because he still had a desire for her, but shocked because if she had kissed him any longer, those shorts he was wearing would be long gone. Nodding in agreement, she swam over to the canoe..lifting it up before taking a deep breathe and climbing on board. She needed a second to think, wondering if it was okay for him. When they got back to shore, would he freak out? She just had to find out as she stayed quiet.

[jp]

Jordan had made preparations to return to the canoe and the shore. He had a lot on his mind, and this had added to that state of confusion. Nonetheless, he remained calm and relaxed, allowing the warmth of the water to soothe his muscles as he placed the paddles into the canoe once more. The night was still young, but he was clearly numb with the water. He had practically spent the entire day here, which was unusual for him, seeing as he barely had time for anything himself. He was to be headed to Washington in the next few days for an internship and afterwhich he would've successfully completed his course and be admitted to the bar. The thoughts of his future were pleasing to him, but at the same time he knew it could be very mundane had he not thought more precisely about it. He held onto the handle of the canoe and waited for the girl to enter first, ensuring that it didnt tumble as she was trying to get on. He liked her, he did. But he had to admit that something was there that was clouded, and unrevealed. He, being who he was, would figure it out soon, but instead decided to enjoy the rest of the night as he himself entered the canoe after she did. He too was silent.

As she started to paddle, she was quiet..her mind lost in thought. The only sound made between the two in the canoe was the sound of breathing. The soft but faint sound was enough to tell Max that all this wasn't just a dream. As she turned and looked forward, she saw the shore. As she turned to face him, she gave him a small smile, before focusing on her thoughts. Things were happening, things that made her think. Eventually, as the birds in the sky crossed over the canoe..they were there. "Well..were back." Max sighed as she slowly got up, stepping out of the canoe as she pulled a strand of her wet hair behind her ear. She slowly started to walk, her mind racing.
