《Energy: A Lloyd Garmadon Fanfic》~Chapter Thirteen~
Advertisement
The doorbell rang and you got up from the couch to get it. When you opened it, you immediately recognized the red head at your door. "Hey Lexi bear!" He says and you grin and give him a warm hug. "Haha babe!" You say then give him a peck on his lips. "So! I was thinking we maybe take a walk or something?" He suggests. "I kinda did that yesterday with Jessie." You tell him.
"Oh! Okay yeah no problem! How about we go to your favorite milkshake place and then we chill at the playground!" He says with a smirk and you chuckle. "You come up with the weirdest things!" "But they're worth doing anyways right?" He says with a shrug. You smile and nod, "Alright, why not!" You say as your slip on your shoes and put on your coat before locking the door to your house behind you.
"Where's your dad?" Jason asks as you turn around and put the keys back in your pocket. "Work." You reply simply. Your dad may have retired from his samurai business, but he had another job as an accountant, which is enough to get money on the table. You two hop in Jason's car and he smiles as he starts the engine and drives off.
As Jason has his eyes on the road, your phone went off signaling that there was a text. You take your phone from your pocket and your heart immediately raced when you saw who it was. It was a message from Lloyd and you were trying to calm yourself down since you convinced yourself you were only startled by his sudden text.
You debate whether or not you should text him back but you figure maybe a few more minutes acknowledging his message wouldn't hurt.
Just then Jason stops at a red light and looks at you with a chuckle. "Who ya texting!?" You look at him with a smile, "Just Lloyd." The light turned green and Jason drove off again. "Cool! Tell him I said hi! Oh and by the way, we're almost there!" Jason says and you chuckle and type something up. Lloyd never responded back to your last message but you typed again anyways.
You two arrive at the milkshake cafe and you both step out of the car. Jason opens the door for you to the building and you thank him as you step inside. He holds your hand in his as you two go up to the counter. "Hi! Welcome to Milkshake Café! What would you like?" The girl asks with a smile on her face. "One Victorious Vanilla Bean Mikshake, no toppings but extra on the whip cream, and One Mighty Mint Shake with chocolate chips, caramel syrup and whip cream!" Jason orders. The girl smiles and turns to the milkshake station and begins make the shakes.

"And you still know my favorite shake till this day." You tell him with a grin and he chuckles and swings both of your hands. "Course I do Lexi bear! Yours is easy! It's the boring one without any toppings and flavors!" He teases and you gasp pretending to be offended. "Hey!" You said and then the girl turns back around with both shakes now made. She reads the order again to make sure and it was correct.
You take your shake and plop a straw in the top as Jason pays the girl. You sip the delicious sweet vanilla shake and smile at its goodness. "Enjoy the shakes! Come again soon!" The girl says cheerfully. You both thank her as Jason takes his shake and walks with you out of the café and back into the car. "Up next! The playground at Ninjago park!" Jason says with a fistpump.
You can't help but laugh at how weird he was. Jason sighed dreamily as he drove, "You have a beautiful laugh." You stop laughing and blush. You two make it to Ninjago playground since the park was pretty close. You two unbuckle your seatbelts and grab your shakes while heading out of the car. It was 3 in the afternoon and it was pretty cold so surprisingly there were no kids playing around.
"C'mon! Let's go on the swings!!" He says and runs off. You laugh and run up to him. "C'mon! Sit down I'll push you!" You sit down on the swing and take a quick sip of your shake before putting it safely down on the ground. You hold the cold chains of the swing so you wouldn't fly off and Jason pushed you. "Woohoo!!" You said as you went up into the air and back down. You two laughed at how much fun you were having and you couldn't help but feel nostalgic from when you were young and your dad took you to the playground.
After about five minutes, Jason stops swinging you and sits on the swing next to you.
"Why are all the kids not playing on the playground today?" You ask him slowly swinging yourself back and sipping from your milkshake. "Everyone's inside with their technology...they don't come out as often as they used to." He said swinging himself slowly back and forth. You nod in understanding and look down.

"Alex?" "Yeah Jason?" "While you were on your mission, I watched from the screen, and I was scared. Scared for you. It takes guts to tell someone you're scared, but I really was, you almost got killed and I wouldn't know what to do with myself if you left." You felt heat rise up to your cheeks as you heard his words. You reach for his hand and hold it in yours. "I was scared too, scared I'd never make it back, but here I am! And I wouldn't have made it without you guys. So thanks, for being there for me." You say with a smile.
Jason smiles back, "Well no problem, I care about you." He says and you blush harder. Jason chuckles seeing your face turning crimson red, he gets up from his swing and helps you stand up. "Awe! I liked the swings!" You said and he sticks his tongue out teasingly. You giggle and rest your head on his chest since you two were really close. "Do you hear that?" He asks you. You don't hear anything at first but then you hear a pounding in his chest. You smile and look up at him, "Your heart?" You guess and he smiles and nods.
"Just being here with you makes it beat, but you know what makes it beat faster?" "What?" "When we do this." He said then connects his lips to yours. He kissed you sweet yet soft. He then let go and you smile as you lean your head on his chest again to heart his heart thumping faster than earlier. You two stand there in the sweet moment until Jason let's go and runs off on the playground. "A side!!! We gotta go on this one Alex!" He cheers as he goes up the tall slide.
You laugh and catch up to him again. You both get to the top of the slide and Jason cheers as he goes down first. "Wee!!" He says playfully and you laugh as you belly flop down the slide. When you reached the bottom you two went again, this time Jason pushed you down the slide and on the third time, you sat on his lap and you both went down. When you reached the bottom you two couldn't stop laughing.
You got off him and stood up to see anything else you used to go on. You two went on everything, the see saw, Merry-go-round, and even the monkey bars. Jason hung upside down from the bars making silly faces to you. "Hey Alex guess what!" He says and you chuckle and come closer to him. "What!" "I'm secretly Spider-Man. Thwip! Thwip!" He says and you roll your eyes and laugh as he gives you a kiss upside down. "Babe!! Get down from there! All the blood is rushing to your head!!" You said and he laughs as he flips right side up and gets down.
He wobbles a little but regains his balance. "C'mon, let's head back to my house and calm ourselves down with a movie." You suggest. "Yeah okay!" He says and you two Hold hands and return back to his car. 20 minutes later you two actually decided to watch the movie downstairs in the Samurai Z cave since the screen is way bigger.
You two set up the couch down there with a big blanket for the two of you to share. "What movie should we watch?" You ask scrolling through the downloaded movies on the computer. Jason finishes putting popcorn in a bowl and sits on the couch looking at the screen.
"Ooh! What about Jurrasic World?!" He suggests and puts the blanket over his legs. You play the movie then clap your hands loud and the lights dim down. You sit next to Jason, sharing the blanket. You cuddle closer to him and he puts his arm around you. You can't help but smile as the movie begins.
