Corporate Prince

Chapter 46: The Pool

I can't believe I frickin' agreed to this. Seto stood outside Ana's house, leaning against his car. When she finally came out, she was wearing shorts that showed off her legs and a thin t-shirt. He immediately felt frustrated. Ugh, why did I agree to this!

"Ready?" She smiled at him teasingly.

His eye twitched. "Yeah, whatever."

They got into his car and he drove them to a water park on the outskirts of town. The entire time he drove, he found it hard to focus. Ugh, whatever. It can't be as bad as that last date. Lunch had been fine. They'd found a nicely secluded booth at a restaurant, but the movie had bored him out of his mind. To his surprise, Ana had picked an action movie. However, after the third blown up car and the same terrible line five times within a ten-minute span, he'd nearly fallen asleep. Who directed that piece of shit? Maybe I should end his career.

After being absolutely bored to death, he'd taken Ana home and that had been that. As much as he wasn't looking forward to the pool he wanted today to be more fun. He pulled the car into the lot, grabbed his duffle bag, and got out. Ana did too and looked around, concerned.

"Are they closed?" She eyed the empty lot.

"Nope." He headed for the entrance and she followed behind him, frowning.

There was one person at the gate who let them in without asking for tickets. Ana looked from the guard to him, then scowled.

"Amin-chan, what did you do?"

"I have no idea what you mean." He continued into the park.

Other than a few staff, the water park was completely empty. Ana turned to him, annoyed.

"Ok, there's no way this is a coincidence. Don't tell me you rented out the entire park or some nonsense like that?" Ana put her hands on her hips and huffed.

"I tried to rent it, but the owner was a prick and told me no... So, I bought it and had to open it privately for me for the day." Seto shrugged, acting as if it wasn't that big a deal. "If I have to swim, I'm certainly not going to do it around a bunch of dweebs."

"You're a dweeb! Who buys and entire park just because they're embarrassed to swim around other people?"

"Hey, I pay better than that other prick and I give benefits."

She took her bag off her shoulder and swung it at him. He didn't bother dodging, and it hit him in the back.

It didn't hurt, but he still sighed at her, anyway. "Well, maybe I just wanted to spend time alone with you."

Ana's face turned red. "You're too much of an ass for me to believe that excuse."

"Yet, you're blushing anyway." Seto teased, and she took another swing at him. He decided it was time to retreat to the changing room. "Then maybe I just didn't want other guys looking at you."

She shouted after him. "I can't tell if you're kidding or not!"

"I'm not!" He shouted back before ducking into the changing room. He dropped the duffle bag on the changing bench and sighed. Alright, let's get this over with. It took him a while to get into his suit. When he came back out, Ana was already waiting for him. She was wearing the same suit and swim cover she'd worn to the beach. When she turned to him, her smile immediately turned to surprise.

"Is... That what you're swimming in?"

He'd put on a full body suit with swim trunks and a t-shirt over top. The only thing that wasn't covered was his face, hands, and feet.
