rookie - chris "ct" tamburello

chapter three

After TJ told us kind of the "directions" or basically like what it meant, he told us that the vets got to pick rookies.

"Hell yeah baby," one of the vets cheered. I couldn't tell who it was.

"Alright so we'll just go in the order from the top down," so the first dude, I think his name is Frank, went down, read a few folders with our information in them.

After awhile of looking through them, he made his decision, "Um I'll take Haley," we watched as Haley walked down to him, she looked kind of strong, and she was pretty.

"Alright next up, Zach," TJ pointed to Zach who was a really good competitor.

He walked down looked through a few files before he made his decision, "I'll take Natalie," Natalie looked over at me and smiled before walking down to him.

"Alright, next is CT," I watched as he walked down there with a stupid smirk on his face.

He walked down and looked through like two folders before turning towards us. "Alright I'm gonna go with," he took a long pause, I hated people who did that, it was so annoying, "Katie."

I looked up in shock before walking down to him. "Really?" I rolled my eyes at him.

The other people continued picking partners while we were talking, "Yeah this says you're a D1 athlete."

"That's not the only reason why you picked me."

"Well that's for me to know, and you to never know," I rolled my eyes, "Are you ready to win rookie?"

"Yeah of course I am Chris," I knew saying his first name would kind of annoy him, but he was calling me rookie, what else was I supposed to do?

"Ha Ha very funny," he rolled his eyes at me. I smiled at him.

We watched as the rest of the guys and girls picked partners.

"Alright," TJ started with the stupid look on his face, "Now that everyone has partners, the house has been split up into different rooms, you will be rooming with your partner, it could make more drama, and we here at the challenge love drama" he smiled.

We all went back to the house and CT was being really annoying.

"Hey there, Hi, Hey," he kept saying that and it got really annoying. But it was annoying in a funny way.

When we got back to the house, we all got to our rooms and set our bags down and we kind of just hung out for awhile. CT and I were in our room until someone came by and asked if we wanted to go swimming with the rest of them.

"Yeah, I will," CT got up

"Yeah sure," I added.

I had never really been confident in my body, but I was pretty sure no one would say anything.

I got my swimsuit on, it was just a regular black bikini, then I put my hair in a bun before following CT.

"Damn girl look at you," he checked me out. I rolled my eyes at him before smiling. It made me blush a little, but he was just being nice.

"You could look better," I said sarcastically.

"Oh really?" we walked out to the pool.

"Yeah," he picked me up and threw me in the pool.

He started laughing before jumping in after me. He landed close to me, splashing water in my face.

"You're so annoying, you know that?" I splashed him a little.

"Yeah of course I do, it's my best quality."

We hung out around the pool for most of the night, and it was really fun, CT was easy to talk to, and easy-going.

Eventually, it got dark so we decided to head back in. We had separate bathrooms, so we both took a shower at the same time, but in different bathrooms.

When I was done, I blow dried my hair, and french braided it.

When I made it back to the room, CT was already done.

"Took you long enough," he looked up at me.

"Shut up," I smirked at him.

"You know, you're really cute," he smirked back at me.

It made me blush,"You're cute too, I said as he stood up."

"What are you gonna do about it?" He came closer too me.

"I dont know," I curled a piece of his hair with my finger.

"Well I know what I'll do about it," he put his hand on my hip and pulled me in close to him and put his lips against mine.

It was amazing. It was an insane sensation.
