SUMMER!

This chapter is going to be an amazing one, since I'm going to be introducing you to...

Summer was the time one could go camping, start swimming, it would just take all the laziness in you and bring life to you! This was one of my favorite seasons.
Dad was taking us to camp. My father was the owner of Camp Black Pebble. His bunch of  French friends had asked him to plan a trip together and without fail he had done so, after all he had an image to maintain in the outside world. I told him I wouldn't go if  bitch came, to my surprise he told me not to worry, making a promise saying, she wasn't coming.
I loved the place, I had been living there practically every summer before, well, mom and dad...
The camp was located right in the center of a jungle in Uttrakhand called Mehanderpur.
We had a natural pool, which had water streamed in from a river flowing close by.
By natural, I meant that the floor wasn't tiled and blue, it was just a huge area dug with a cement lining on it, which was 7 feet on the deep end and 3 feet on the shallow one. It had algae growing on its floor, the streamed water would enter from one end in a water fall manner because of the net placed at the entry to prevent any dirt or snakes from entering and it flowed out into the fields of camp where they grew some crops.
The pool was about 5 minutes walk, away from the tents, there was a volleyball net and flying fox in the park next to the kitchen and another stream which was connected to the river on the other side, next to the volleyball net was a shack which was connected to those huge stone stairs, creating a sheltered sitting area. In front of the kitchen was a big ground across which was the lounge, on the end of the ground was the bummer bridge, shooting range and other activities, tents were placed on the right side of the ground and the path that led to the pool, there was another path that led to the wash rooms and loos.
Now imagine that in the middle of this huge jungle full of wildlife. It was calm and beautiful.
The parts I loved most about this place was its beauty, the wildlife and the swimming pool.
On the way of our road trip we met dads french friends, there were children my age but I didn't bother getting out and meeting them. After a drive of about 10 hours we reached camp.
I went straight into my tent, tent number nine that was the first tent in the 2nd row and it was 'MY' tent. I put my bags there and exhausted from the road trip I plonked myself onto the bed.
After about 10 minutes, someone entered my tent, someone I had never seen before and I swear my heart  skipped a beat right then, I could feel myself developing a crush.
He was tall, his hair was silky and beautiful, it was messy and fell over his forehead, those broad shoulders, mesmerizing eyes, a perfect set of teeth, his smile could easily take ones breath away, his legs and butt were toned as if he were a model for an underwear advertisement.
He was wearing shorts and a loose T-shirt, through the sleeves you could actually see his well built, strong arms.
I didn't stare at him or anything, I just had a great observation, more like I had a habit of checking people and everything else out, specially since I didn't like being around people.
He saw me laying, and said "sorry... I should have asked and entered." I do not know about anything else, but he, definitely, had a super sexy voice. I didn't say anything, he went on further "I actually came to call you out for dinner, your dad sent me." I got up and started moving. By the way I'm Arian, and you are..? "Pheana" I said, we kept walking in silence till we reached the lounge and sat down at the bar to have dinner.
Gosh, he was staring, or maybe I had developed a secret crush, some where deep down which wasn't going to be acknowledged.

Next morning I was up early, I would always wake up early in camp. I could feel the sun shinning, hear my dogs barking outside my tent and the chirps of those pretty birds. I went for a stroll, which isn't a very wise thing to do in the jungle specially alone and the stroll ended out to be an hour long.

I decided to go wake Rayansh up and ask him to go for a swim with me.
On my way to his tent I saw Arian walking toward me in his boxers and his towel around his neck, he was the definition of 'hot' and 'sexy', boy... why the did my heart keep doing those flips whenever I saw the guy.
He called out saying "mornin' sunshine" I hated being called 'sunshine', I ignored him and entered my brothers tent, I didn't realize Arian had entered behind me.
He cleared his throat which made me turn around to see his chest inches away from my nose. I looked up at his face, god why was he 6 feet!?, he gave me a smirk as if reading my thoughts and in a mocking, cheesy tone asked me "may I know what exactly are you doing in my tent?".
Wait, what?
I had entered the wrong tent! Dammit! But my reaction was "Your tent? this is my brothers tent." He was standing in the circle of my personal proximity, it didn't really make me uncomfortable, because of the secret crush I was developing but it was after all my personal space and I couldn't even step back because the bed was behind me.
He said "Yes, It 'was' your brother's, your brother is now sharing the tent with your father and since number 10 was empty, I asked him if I could shift in."

I was in the right tent then!

Great just great, now he was staying in the tent right next to mine.
He asked me "why were you looking for Rayansh?", in a blunt tone I told him I wanted to go for a swim. "Your in perfect company then, even I was wanting to go for a swim. Ray, uncle, my father and everybody else are already there." I was annoyed with my brother for not telling me.
Arian took a step closer, a chill ran down my spine, I stepped aside and walked till the entrance of the tent and said "Alright then, let me change and we'll go." I tried to sound as harsh as I could and with that I left.
I kept thinking about how handsome Arian was, his abs, broad chest and shoulders, but I was mostly thinking about those eyes, they had something similar, something that really attracted me... I changed and went out of my tent, he was waiting outside.
We walked towards the pool and I could feel his eyes on me again.

I was internally drooling over his sexyness, but who was gonna show him that.
