You woke up to a morning announcement saying "ALL CAMPERS PLEASE GET UP WE HAVE A BUSY DAY TODAY STARTING OFF FOR THE 15-16 YEAR OLDS DOING LIFEGUARDING SKILLS"

Ugh you thought to yourself lifeguarding sucks and I don't wanna be with someone stupid plus what if someone drops me. Hailey jumped from the top bunk in her perfect pink bikini meanwhile you just had a one piece blue swimsuit so boring.

When you got ready everyone started walking down to the dock.

"Listen up," the counselor says. "You're going to be split up into pairs. One of you will tread water in the lake and pretend to drown and the other will dive into the water and drag you back to the dock."

You hear your name being called "Emma Matthews and Mitch Marner" you see a tall boy walking over with brown hair, baby blue eyes and a 6 pack. He glances at you and winks. Your face goes bright red.

"Hey, I'm Mitch," he says.

"U-um, I'm Emma," you stammer.

"Do you wanna go first?" he asks.

"No thanks, I'm not so great at this kind of stuff".

"Oh alright well you do look pretty light anyways",

The counsellor starts up his whistle and says "On the count of one person one will go start fake drowning and on the count of three, people two, will go save them and bring them back to shore". "One!" You run as fast as you can and splash into the water and then get out kind of far then start going down but trying to stay up to make it easier for Mitch.

"Two, Three" the counselor blows his whistle really loud!

Mitch jumps in and is getting closer he starts to pull you into shore, his biceps are so big and his six pack on your back is so relaxing like you could fall asleep...

"Your turn" Mitch says.

"Are you sure I can do this?"

"I'm sure!"

"One" the whistle is blown

"Two, Three!!"

You start to swim and drag him onto shore he's quite heavy though, he looks up at you and quietly says

"You're doing great Emma"

"Thanks" you say back.

You get tired but the shore is really close, you get to the shore and by accident drop Mitch along with you stumbling a bit.

"I guess girls just can't stop falling for me haha!"

Everyone starts laughing at you, getting embarrassed is your worst fear so you run. As your running a root makes you trip and fall as you get up to check your knee it's bleeding really bad, blood is definitely not your greatest friend. Things start to get blurry and the last thing you saw before you fainted was Mitch's baby blue eyes looking concerned.
