"Ponyboy, what are you doing?"

He takes my book away from my hands and picked me up.

"Pone, stop. What the hell are you doing?" I asked again, starting to get worried.

It was Summer break. Me and Ponyboy were at my grandparents lake house while my grandparents was in Texas, visiting my cousins. They asked me to watch over it and they also said it's fine if I had friends over. Just as long as I don't break things or get myself arrested.

"Ponyboy, put me down." I said, hitting his chest and starting to move around but he's a strong man and I just looked weak to him.

He brought me outside and it was drizzling.

"Ponyboy it's raining, we're gonna catch a cold if we don't get back inside." I said. "I don't care." He said.

He walked over to the lake and that's where I knew what was about to happen.

"Pony, stop-- stop it! Put me down!" I said.

"Okay." And by the time he dropped me down, he was already in the water.

I got up from the water, wiping my face and looking at him dead in the eyes as he just giggles.

"So that's how you want to play? Okay." I said and put his head under the water. He got up, since like I said, he was stronger than me but he was struggling to get up which made me quite happy but I felt bad at the same time because I was literally drowning him.

He got up and immediately puts me over his shoulder and we go deeper into the lake.

Now we are both soaked and our bodies entirely submerged in the water with our heads hovering above the water.

I splashed water in his face and here starts another water fight.

We splashed water at each other until he eventually gave up, picked me up again and brought me inside.

"And what the fuck was that for? Taking my book away from me, getting me out of the house and just soaking me with water from the lake." I said.

"I was bored." He said.

"Oh!-" I said with a bit or sarcasm.
