Endless Conflict

30 | Let The Games Begin

"I didn't know you had a pool and inside." Katie says whilst she gawks at the huge pool inside of Brent's house. Of course he has a pool, he has everything. There house is huge. Why wouldn't they have a pool?

"We actually have one outside as well." Brent says casually like its no biggie to own two big pools. Yeah Brent everyone owns two state of the art pools that cost probably about a million dollars. All normal. I wrap the towel around me tighter. It may be inside but it's freezing. I don't even know why I'd agreed to this. Swimming in arctic weather. I don't even know why we were going to swim. Well I do, we were bored and Todd suggested swimming and for some unknown reason everyone agreed.

"Yeah, you should see there cinema." Todd says as he flings his towel over to the wall and dips his foot on the water.

"Is it cold?" I ask him and he shakes his head.

"Nah, not that bad." He says that with a smile so really in my translation it's yeah it's cold.

"It's fine Georgia." Brent calls from the other side of the room as he flings his towel to the wall as well giving me a nice view of his abs. Man he was making it really hard not to drool.

"Anyway you agreed to swim so your swimming no matter what." Katie says with a grin as she dives into the water and you see her swimming under the water because of her bright pink bikini. Mine is white though, not a bright colour at all.

"She's crazy," I mutter to myself "you know your dating the worlds craziest girl in the world." I say to Todd as I drop my towel on the spot heading over to the side of the pool.

"Yes," he says with a smile "that's one of the reason I love her." Now that was corny.

"You need to learn to love people's faults." Brent calls over to me with a smirk as he looks me up and down unashamed. "Not that you have any." He says, now that was corny.

"You guys are so corny." I tell them and they both shrug before they hop in slowly. How do they do it slowly? That was the worst way to do it. Katie pops up and swims over to Todd who grins at her. I decide to go in the way that any should. A bomb. Katie and Todd are kissing now so I decided to interrupt them.

"Don't." Brent says seeing my train of thought. I don't know how he can know me so well, I actually think he can read minds.

"I didn't say it out loud. Did I?" I ask him.

"Of course not I just know you too well." He says as he turns and floats on his back. I turn back to Todd and Katie who have just finished there kiss but are still together so I decide to not listen to Brent. I take a few big steps back and my feet pad loudly against the tiles as I run up to the pool. But they can't move far enough or quick enough to get out of my way. I bomb right next to them, interrupting there little whatever you call starring at each other with goo goo eyes. I pop up out of the freezing water and survey my damage. They both looked like drowned puppy dogs. Success.

"You didn't did you?" Brent asks as he doggy paddles over to us. Isn't it obvious I did? Plus, why wouldn't I have.

"I believe that she did." Katie says as she pulls a stray wet hair from her face.

"You are so unpredictable." Brent says with a chuckle and I think I nearly have a heart attack. He's already right behind me and he says that right into my ear.

"Don't do that!" I scold him as I turn to look at him and I slap him on the shoulder whilst staying a float. Skill right there.

"Sorry." He says not sorry at all with a grin. That's when Todd and Katie try and fail to splash us. It just fells like its raining.

"Can you feel that?" I tease them as I look to Brent for him to play along with me.

"What, I don't feel anything?" He jokes as he pulls me to him and we swim of to a corner.

"What are we doing?" I ask Brent as we reach the corner. He turns to me flashing his smile as he pulls me closer.

"I don't know." He says as he manoeuvres me against the wall so he's in front of me.

"I think you do know." I say when I see his cheeky grin come.

"How about we just do, no talking." He says and I wrap my hands around his neck as he grabs the side of the pool for support because we are in a pool. But we don't get a chance for the kiss because we hear Brent's siblings join us.

"Ready watch this!" I hear as one of the calls out and flips in ending the peace. "What was that, watch this!" Bailey calls out and that's when he does an awesome flip in.

"Wow, that was actually really cool." I say to Brent as I watch the boys.

"Yeah Bailey does gymnastics actually, he's a weird kid." Brent shakes his head. I realise there's still so much I don't know about the boys. But really gymnastics? He looked more like a motorbike kid.

"Hey Todd watch this!" I hear Connor call out as he bombs in the water hardly making a ripple.

"Good job Connor, that was cool." Todd says as he swims over to him helping him swim and float but he's pretty good.

"Oh hello love birds." Says Corey as he hangs his head over the side of the pool to look at us from above.

"Well hello Corey." Brent says with a smile, I can tell these two get along. "We would like to ask you and the other love birds to a game of indoor volleyball." He says poshly while coming and sitting on the edge of the pool. We move to each side of him and lean against the side of the pool.

"I think we agree to this." Says Brent but twice as posh, I can't help but scoff.

"Great!" Corey says as he turns of the poshness and leaps to his feet. It's then I realise that all the boys have abs. Even Connor has some little ones. They all must work out in secret. I think Brent sees me checking all the boys out cause he waves a hand in front of my face.

"Earth to Georgia?" I shake my head and turn to him.

"Why are you checking all my brothers out?" He asks with an amused grin.

"It's just," I stumble for words "they all have abs. All of you boys have abs. How's that work?" I ask him and he laughs as he pulls himself out of the water and I follow behind him.

"We're not the only ones." Brent says as he turns and faces me looking down at my stomach. So that's when I look down at my stomach. I do have them but not like the boys. I only had them from all the sport I had done over years. Plus, every now and then I went for a run or to the gym.

"That?" I say pointing to my stomach. "That is not abs." I tell him and then I point at his abs. "That is abs." I inform him but he just laughs as he turns to his brothers announcing that were all playing a game of indoor volleyball.

So let the games begin.
