Hans the lifeguard

Izzy's thoughts

Chapter 4 ********

I looked at Dominic's face. He looked back. I was shocked. Was this a joke? I mean well played but seriously, a grown man turning out like this? I couldn't believe my eyes. He had no six pack. No pack at all! Was he really a lifeguard or did he just say that?  

Questions run through my head.  

Why did he need that music? 

Why did he have those speedos on? 

Why did he walk like that?  

I couldn't answer any of these questions.  

I stood there staring at Dom who just stared back.

"Can't you just come to mine for a week?" I asked.

"My mum wants someone to look after the house." He replied.

"Have they even seen him? Surely they can't trust him with the house? " I continued questioning him.

"Look all it says on his CV is 'Very caring and protective' and that's what my parents look for." Dom answered.

I looked at him and sighed.

"We'll I better leave you to it." as I turned around to walk out of the living room he begged me to stay.

"Izzy, please stay Elizabeth please?" He continued until I answered him.

"Fine! But only for another half an hour!" I said sternly.

I couldn't be bothered to listen to another half an hour of that constant hip hop beat that was going to drive me to my death but I stayed just for Dom. He took me into the kitchen because he felt peckish. He rubbed his stomach and got a jar of peanut butter out. He then put some toast in the toaster and spun round.

"Do you want anything?" He asked.

"No thanks." I forced a smile.  

"More for me." He mumbled under his breath.

He poppedd up his toast and started to spread the peanut butter on ever so thickly. He shoved the food in his mouth and chomped like a lawn mower. 

I left shortly afterwards.  

I gave him a kiss and a cuddle before whispering  

" good luck." And walked off down the drive way.

"Voodbye Vizzy I heard a loud sound coming from the top window as I smiled and looked up at him and waved. 

"Goodbye Hans." I laughed. Oh Dom had it bad, real bad.
