Jinx has an idea!

Suddenly, Jinx broke the silence with a gleeful exclamation. "Hey, John! I've got an idea. How about we cool off with a midnight swim?"

I turned to her, surprised by the sudden shift in mood. "A swim? Now?"

"Why not?" she replied with a mischievous grin. "There's a great spot by the river where we can jump in and have some fun. Trust me, it's awesome!"

Her enthusiasm was contagious, and I found myself nodding before I even realized it. "Alright, let's do it."

Jinx jumped to her feet, pulling me up with her. "This way!" she said, leading me through the jungle with a newfound energy. We navigated the dense foliage, her laughter echoing in the night as we made our way to the river.

The river was a serene sight, the water reflecting the moonlight in shimmering waves. It flowed gently, inviting us to take a dip. Jinx wasted no time, kicking off her boots and then stripping down. She first removed her shorts, standing in just her top and panties. Without hesitation, she took off her top, revealing her slim, toned torso. Finally, she slid off her panties, standing completely naked by the river.

"Come on, John! Don't be shy," she called out, already wading into the water.

I stood there, stunned. Jinx's nonchalance was disarming, and I couldn't help but stare. My eyes traveled from her wild blue hair, which hung loose and untamed, down to her slender shoulders. Her body was lean and athletic, with well-defined muscles that hinted at her agility and strength. Her breasts, small and perky, fit her lithe frame perfectly, her nipples a soft pink that stood out against her pale skin. My gaze moved lower to her flat stomach, where her narrow waist accentuated her feminine curves, leading down to her hips and long, toned legs. Her pubic area was adorned with a small patch of blue hair that matched the color of her head. Finally, my eyes traveled to her feet, noting the typical Jinx style of painted toenails, a bright, vibrant blue that stood out even in the moonlight.

I was completely taken aback by her beauty, but also by her sheer confidence. She moved with a grace and ease that was both captivating and disconcerting.

Jinx noticed my stare and turned to face me, her grin widening. "It's just a body, John. You can look all you want, but you better hurry up and join me in the water!"

Her words snapped me out of my trance. "Yeah, just a body," I muttered to myself as I quickly kicked off my shoes and stripped down to my underwear. Feeling a rush of embarrassment, I hesitated for a moment before deciding to match her confidence. I removed my underwear, standing completely naked by the river. It was only fair.

Jinx's eyes gleamed with approval as she saw me shed my clothes. "That's more like it!"

I waded into the cool water after her, the sensation invigorating against my skin. The river's gentle flow wrapped around us, carrying away the day's tension.

"See? Not so bad, right?" she teased, splashing water at me playfully.

I laughed, the cool water invigorating my senses. "Yeah, not so bad."

We swam and played in the water, the tension of the day melting away. Jinx was like a different person in the river, her wild energy turned into pure joy. She ducked under the water, popping up behind me and surprising me with a splash.

"Gotcha!" she laughed, her blue hair plastered to her face.

I laughed, turning to face her. "You're something else, Jinx."

She grinned, floating on her back and looking up at the stars. "You know, I haven't done this in a long time. It's nice to just... be. No chaos, no explosions. Just the sound of the water and the stars above."

I floated beside her, taking in the peaceful surroundings. "Yeah, it's a nice change of pace."

Jinx turned her head to look at me, her expression softer than I'd ever seen. "Thanks for being here, John. I don't think I realized how much I needed this. Someone to talk to, someone who doesn't see me as just a crazy girl."

I reached out, gently taking her hand. "You're more than that, Jinx. And I'm glad to be here with you."

We floated there for a while, holding hands and enjoying the tranquility of the moment. The river carried us gently, its cool embrace soothing our minds and bodies. The stars above seemed to shine even brighter, their reflection dancing on the surface of the water.

"So, what's your story, John?" Jinx asked, her tone curious and inviting. "What was your life like before all this?"

I took a deep breath, thinking back to my life before Summoner's Rift. "I was just an ordinary person, really. I had a job, friends, and hobbies. But I always felt like something was missing, like I was meant for something more. I used to play League of Legends a lot, imagining what it would be like to be a part of this world. And then one day, I got my wish."

Jinx's eyes sparkled with interest. "Sounds like you were looking for a bit of chaos yourself."

I chuckled. "Maybe. I guess I just wanted to feel alive, to have an adventure. And now, here I am, living it with you."

She smiled, her hand tightening around mine. "Well, I'm glad you're here. It's nice to have someone who gets it, who gets me."

We continued to share stories, our voices mingling with the sounds of the night. Jinx told me about her life in Zaun, about the struggles and the moments of joy. She spoke of her adventures, her battles, and the people she had met along the way.

"I used to look up to Vi," she said, her voice softer now. "She was always so strong, so determined. But I could never be like her. I had to find my own way, even if it meant breaking all the rules."

I listened, fascinated by the depth of her experiences. "It sounds like you've been through a lot, Jinx. But you've also made your mark. You've shown that you can survive, that you can thrive."

She nodded, her eyes distant as she thought about her past. "Yeah, but sometimes I wonder what it would be like to just... belong. To not have to fight so hard to be seen."

"You belong with me, Jinx," I said softly. "You're not alone anymore."

She looked at me, her eyes filled with gratitude. "Thanks, John. That means a lot."

Eventually, we swam back to the shore, the cool night air feeling refreshing on our wet skin. We dressed in silence, the bond between us stronger than ever.

As we walked back to our camp, Jinx looked at me with a playful smile. "You know, John, you're not half bad. Maybe we make a pretty good team after all."

I smiled back, feeling a sense of contentment. "Yeah, maybe we do."
