Casseè girl

Chapter 24 ~ pool

It had been a few hours since I left my dads hotel room, it was all sorted with him now. I had spoken to my mum since. I told her about everything. She sounded pleased about it.

After that I'd just been lounging around in my room, watching rom coms on my tv while snacking on the food stored inside the cupboards.

I should really do something more productive.

There's a gym inside the hotel? I could do that but I'm really not feeling like working anything else out today. I had eaten to much to go to the restaurant, didn't feel like drinking and who would I drink with anyway ?

I hadn't been to the pool. That could be fun.

I soon made my way down to where the pool was, I grabbed a towel and put my bikini on inside the changing rooms.

It was dark outside already.

When I stepped onto poolside, no one was in the pool and no one was around the pool. The whole place was empty. How perfect.

I dived straight in, soon I did a few lengths.

It was calming when I was all on my own, I had almost forgotten everything. I pushed off from one end underwater and had finished the whole length without breathing when I saw a pair of legs dangling into the pool.

I came up to see a familiar person sat on the side of the pool, staring right down on me.

'New swim suit ?' Arthur asked.

'No, you've just never seen this one.' I replied, treading water to stay a float.

'I spoke to my dad earlier.' I told him to start a conversation.

'Really? Are you alright?' His voice showing an obvious tone of stress for me.

'Yeah it went well actually, he said when I go back home to Oxford he wants to come and visit more often.' 

'When you go back to Oxford ? When are you going back to Oxford Y/n?' He questioned.

'I'm not sure. I have nothing left to stay for.' I reminded him.

'Me Y/n, stay for me.' Arthur began.

'We can't go back to how it was, you know that Arthur.' I answered.

By this time I had drifted towards the edge of the pool where he sat swinging his legs about in the water. My arms were now crossed and sat beside him, my chin rested on top.

'Yeah I know.' He said, disappointed.

'Do you know what I realised the other day?' He asked.

'No, what ?' I replied.

It felt so good to be having a normal conversation with him.

'We never actually kissed.' He stated.

'That's because we never actually had a relationship.' I reminded him.

'Okay, but don't you wish we had ?' He continued.

Before I could reply to his smug comments he slipped himself into the water. Taking me by my hands he lead my to the shallow end where we could both stand up.

He put my hands on his chest which was dripping with water by this point.

'Just once I wish we had.' He whispered as he moved his face closer to mine.

I couldn't help it but to angle my head up at him.

His and my lips soon connected. I brought my hand up to his head, trailing through the strands of dirty blonde hair and then to his sharp jawline.

We had been making out in the pool for a few minutes before I wrapped my legs around his waist, he held onto my back with his wet hands.

Soon I pulled away.

I stood up in the water and put my hands through my silky hair.

'What is it ?' Asked Arthur as he approached me.

'This isn't right.' I told him.

Confused, Arthur asked, 'What you didn't like me kissing you?'

'No I do, I really do but we can't be doing this, I made my decision and this won't work.' 

'Alright.' Arthur bluntly stated.

He got out and sat on a lounger by the side of the pool.

                                       . . .

When I had got out of the shower I wrapped myself in my towel and stepped into my room.

A ringing filled my ears, when I found my phone I discovered it was my mum.

'Hey mum, what's up ?' I asked holding the phone up to my ear.

'Just wanted to let you know that I've booked your flights back to Luton airport for tomorrow 8am be out of the hotel by 5.' She answered.
