Temptation
Chapter 3
By Katie

Nick looked at Jace doubtfully. He wasn't sure why he was there. Just that he needed to see her one last time before he went to bed. He shifted uncomfotably in her gaze and looked at the ground.

"I just wanted to see if you got settled in okay?"

"Oh yeah, everything's fine." She had a wicked smile on her face, which Nick could not see because he was still staring at the ground. He didn't, no he couldn't, look up for a fear of looking into those green eyes. They made him think things he shouldn't about his sister...

"So was that all?" Jace looked at him expectangly. He had been standing there looking at the ground, completely silent for about three minutes now.

Nick looked up and groaned inwardly. He had looked into her eyes. And now he was thinking impure thoughts of her. "Yeah, that was all. Glad to know you got in alright." He stood there looking at her and she smiled up at him.

"Okay, so are you going to go now? I need to change."

"What? Oh, oh yeah. I'm sorry."

"It's quite alright Nick. It was really nice meeting you and your family, they're all so nice."

"Thanks." He started walking towards his room but then stopped and turned around quickly.

"Do you want to do something tomorrow? I could give you a tour of Florida or something."

"Sure." She grinned at him and he returned the gesture.

"Okay, well, I'll see you tomorrow then."

"Yeah, see you tomorrow Nick." She closed the door silently and Nick skipped back to his room. Tomorrow was a new day, and tomorrow, Jace was all his.
