Chapter 3

Flannigan's

As Ava and Jake stepped through the doors, Elana jumped up and down, waving to catch Ava's attention. She had clearly already downed a few cocktails.

Sitting down at the table, Elana pushed over a drink. Looking around there were a few of the guys from the men's swimming team also at the table. Obviously Elana needs to swim more laps in the future Ava thought to herself.

Ava and Elana had been friends since childhood. She had always been fearless, and a bit of flirt as they grew older, but you could always be assured of having fun with her around.

Ava was jerked back from her thoughts when Elana took hold of her arm and dragged her to the dance floor.

Growing up with a Latino background, Ava had been exposed to music and dancing from a young. She loved to dance with family and friends when they had parties at home, and now she quick settled into the groove as the music blared.

Dancing together, Elana provactely moved around Ava, while Ava's gyrations accentuated her well proportioned body. In particular her hips and breasts.

The two girls quickly drew the unwanted attention of quite a few men on the dance floor. Jake, who'd been watching a group of girls near the bar, noticed the movement on the dance floor. His possessive instincts kicking in.

Outside Flannigan's

As Lena and Maya approached the door security, Maya turned to Ava, "I told you to have the 'girls' out." Dressed in a tight black dress, that provided ample view of her cleavage, Ava looked down and asked, "What the hell are you expecting? Only a bra?"

"Wouldn't hurt," Maya chuckled, walking in and making a beeline for the bar.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you about the Captain of the Eastside swimming team" Maya said as she handed Lena a drink. "What about her?"

Maya grinned, "She is hot. I mean fuckin super hot! She looked like she might be Latina? Totally my flavour."

Lena raised an eyebrow, "Really." "Yes really."

A commotion could be heard coming from the dance floor where a guy could be seen taking a girls hand and proceeding to pull her away from the dance floor.

"Holy shit," exclaimed Maya. "That's her. That's totally fuckin' her! That's my swimming team goddess! The Captain from Eastside"

"What about me?" Lena teased. "Yeah, yeah. You're good too." Maya not even looking at Lena. "I'm gonna go save her. Look what that asshole's doing. I can be her knight in shiny armour."

Before Lena could respond, Maya had already taken off.

"Take your hands off her dipshit!" Maya yelled at Jake. "Mind your own fuckin' business," he replied angrily. Letting go of Ava's hand anyway as they become the surrounding crowds focus.

"It's okay.  He's my boyfriend," Ava awkwardly said. "Still, he shou..." Lena put her hand on Maya's arm, seeing she was already worked up.

Stepping forward, Lena put out her hand to Ava, "Hi. I'm Lena. Captain of the Westlake Swimming team. This is Maya. She can be protective of woman at times." Lena gave her her biggest smile.

Ava reached out to shake Lena's outstretched hand, mesmerised by her bright blue eyes.

Shaking her hand, "I..I'm A..Ava?"

"You sure?" Lena grinned. "Sorry, yes. Ava. Ava Morgan. Eastside. Nice to meet you."

Realising she was still hold Lena's hand, Ava quickly let go and wondered. Why am I stuttering? Her cheeks flushed with a tinge of red from embarrassment.

Lena quietly observed this 'swimming goddess' that got Maya so worked up. The deep brown eyes, the curvature from her chest to her hips. Her flat stomach and the long legs, which were toned from years of training.

The scene then changed to a tall handsome man that blocked her view. Looking up, she raised an eyebrow to Jake who had put himself in between. "Thanks for the concern, but we are fine here. Just a misunderstanding. Right, babe?"

"R..right.." Ava said.

"So long as you're OK," Lena said, leaning around to look at Ava.

"We're fine. Thanks," responded Jake.

As they walked away, Maya yelled, " Call me if you need saving beautiful!" Winking at Ava. "I'll be right there!" Jake glared at Maya, who mouthed back at him, "Fuckin' finance douche.."

"Look at him Lena! No doubt, he's a fuckin' finance douche!" she grumbled.

Lena pulled Maya away, giving Ava a final glance. Ava looked directly at her and nodded.

Bright blue eyes Ava thought.
