"𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝘂𝗽, 𝘀𝗸𝗿𝗿𝘁. 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲. 𝗹𝗲𝗳𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻', 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻' 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵."- 𝗯𝗿𝘆𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿.

my blanket was making me overheat as i threw it down on the floor. i hated summer. winter was the season i liked. being all cold and stuff. my phone rung shortly after. who the fuck is calling me at this time. i looked at the contact name and it was joão. what the hell does he want at six in the morning. he is going to be the absolute death of me.

"𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘅?" i said rubbing my eyes. why does he have to call me so early in the morning. "𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗸𝗲 𝘂𝗽 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗱." joão said laughing. "𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁!" i said slamming my head into my pillow. i was not a morning person at all, and joão wouldn't change that. 

"𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗴𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗽𝘆 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗶 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆." why in the hell would i have to get ready at six the morning. is he on fucking drugs? "𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝗶 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗿?" i hope it's not any fancy restaurant, they always say words like spiffy. for no reason. "𝗮 𝗯𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘂𝗶𝘁, 𝘄𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘄𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴!" joão said with MAJOR enthusiasm.

"𝗼𝗸𝗮𝘆 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗶'𝗺 𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱?" the truth is i am tired. i want to go back to bed and sleep in until noon, but nope joão had to call me. not that i'm complaining though i love being around him. "𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘄, 𝗶'𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗲𝗻." and then he hung up the phone without saying anything else.

i scrambled out of my bed and walked to my drawer. i pulled out a black binki and found some sunscreen. i rummaged through my closet and found a tote bag to put my towel in. i didn't forget to bring a charger. as soon as i sat down on my couch joão texted me that he was here. damn, he couldn't even give me time to relax.

i walked out my apartment door locking it. even though it was early in the morning it still had the hot summer weather. i got in the car placing my tote bag on the floor board. "𝘀𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘄𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘁?" i said as i reclined the seat. "𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗮 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗯𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗹𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝘀." he said taking his eyes of the road to smile at me.

"𝗶'𝗺 𝗴𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗮 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝗼 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘅, 𝗶 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝘄𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗴𝗮𝗹." i said laughing. he looked at me with a shocked look. "𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗿𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴?" is swimming a big thing to people? i never really had time to swim because i was juggling work and school. "𝗶'𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘅, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵 𝗶 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝗻𝗮𝗽." i closed my eyes and then i felt something on my leg.

i peeked and saw that it was joão's hand on my thigh. i closed my eyes, and tried to go to sleep. this man is going to make me want to marry him. i'm falling hard for him and i know it. eighteen year old ashanti would flip her shit, oh well she needed a fucking exorcism.
