Rayne's POV
I went downstairs and went into the kitchen. Everybody was huddled around the island.
"Hey, what are you guys up to?" I asked. They all jumped, "Nothing." they quickly said in unison.
"Sure," I said not believing them one bit. "What to go swimming?" I asked them. I already had my suit on under my clothes.
"Yeah," Rydel said. "Let's go get changed." she went upstairs. Ryland, and Ell followed her. Riker and Ross already had their trunks on so they went out side. I went up to Rocky's room and knocked on the door, I heard a faint 'Come in.' I opened the door and saw Rocky laying on his bed scrolling on his phone.
"Hey we're going swimming. Want to join?" I asked.
"Yeah, I'll be down. I just have to change first."
"Okay, meet you downstairs." I said leaving the room and shutting the door. I went back into the hall and walked down into the bathroom. I grabbed 7 towels, I could barley seen over top of them. I was slowly making my way down the hall to the steps. "Here I'll take some of those." I nearly jumped out of my skin when Rocky appeared in front of me, he took half the towels and I could see again.
"Thanks."
We went outside and set the towels down on the table. Rocky took off running to the diving board while taking his shirt off, I tried not the stare. He went to the end and did a backflip, he resurfaced spitting out water. I took my shirt and shorts off and went to the diving board, I went into a stance like a front flip but instead of jumping and doing one, I did one right off the board. I hit the water feet first and when I resurfaced I heard Rydel call out, "I'd give that a perfect ten!" I yelled a thanks back. Ross came over to the diving board and did a perfect jumping front flip.
Rocky got out and laid on the grass while I went over and sat with Rydel, and Ryland. Riker and Ell went over to Rocky, Riker stood at Rocky's hand, which were above his head, and Ell was standing at his feet. They both had evil grins on their faces. Riker picked Rocky up by the arms, while Ell picked him up by the feet and they went over to the pool side. They started swinging Rocky, as he was yelling at them.
"1!"
"2!"
"3!" They released him and he went flying into the water creating a huge splash. Ross came over to were Rydel, Ryland, and I were sitting we were all laughing like crazy when the two boys grabbed Rydel just like Riker and Ell had with Rocky and did the same thing with her. She said some choice words.
Then Riker came over to me, "But I was already thrown in today!" I yelled. He just grinned evilly and picked me up and threw me over his shoulder. I kept playfully punching him in the back, but it didn't faze him. When we got to the pool side, he threw me in. But once I hit the water I hit something solid. I resurfaced and saw that I had hit Rocky and he had caught me. He had one hand on my waist and didn't move it as he said, "Nice of you to drop it." I laughed at his cheesy joke.
"Nice of you to catch me." I said back.
"Anytime." We stayed like this till Riker and Ell jumped in at the same time causing a big wave of water to separate Rocky and I.
We all stayed out side playing in the pool till sunset. We all grabbed a towel, I also grabbed my clothes and went inside. I threw my shorts and shirt back on as the boys set up a game of COD.
"Yes!, I win again!" I said after I had snipered Ryland, Riker, and Rocky. Ross was in the shower, Ell had gone home and Rydel was waiting to get in the shower after Ross.
"How do you always win? What is your secret?" Rocky asked from beside me.
"Never going to tell you." I said smugly.
"Come on, I'm your best friend. Please tell me." he said with his puppy dog eyes. I couldn't resist them, "Fine, it's all about timing." I said.
"Okay, let's do teams now." Rocky said. We began to play teams Rocky and I against Riker and Ryland. We were half way though it when Ross and Rydel came down. "Here Ross, I'm going to go get a shower." I said handing Ross the controller, I went upstairs and got a light pink long sleeved T-shirt and pink plaid pj pants.
Going into the bathroom, I peeled the wrap off my ankle and slowly started to move it around and stretch it. I got in the shower, and washed the day away.
I got out of the shower and dressed, then I put new wrap on my ankle. I brushed out my hair, and threw the dirty clothes and towels into the hamper. I went back downstairs, Rocky passed me his controller and went to shower. We were now playing Left 4 Dead, I change my avatar to Zoey and began to kick zombie butt.
Once Rocky got out of the shower, we went upstairs to his room. He puled out his computer and we watched old R5 videos. We were laying down on his bed, and I rested my head on his shoulder. He smelled nice, and fresh.
After about an hour of watching old videos I looked at the time and saw it was 9:57pm. We had school in the morning, it was the last week of September.
"I should be getting to bed." I said sitting up and stretching. Rocky sat up too setting his laptop down. I stood up and so did he, "Good night Rocky." I say hugging him.
He hugs me back, "Good night Rayne." when we pull away he kissed my forehead. I left the room shutting the down behind me, I saw Ross and Ryland making their way to their room. I bid them good night and went into Rydel's room, she was fast asleep. Riker was probably still downstairs since a light was still on. I shut the door and made my way over to my make shift bed and crawled under the covers. I drifted into a dreamless sleep, thinking about Rocky.
