(chapter 3)(the pool after dark)

(Shasta's p.o.v)

I was walking aimlessly around BG's house. I was kinda bored honestly. I was in the house alone, so I decided to go get in the pool. I pulled my clothes off till all was left on me was my bathingsuit.

I jumped in and swam under water for a moment.
Then I surfaced at the other end of the pool. I rubbed my eyes trying to clear my vision from being underwater. I gasped when I saw the same brown eyed man from earlier looking at me.
"Thomas?" I say. "Shasta?""that is your name right?" He asked. I nodded. "Yeah, it is.. Um what are you doing in here?" I asked him. "Swimming, Brantley said it was cool if I got in the/ He stopped. Those brown eyes looked as though they were lost in my hazel ones.

He placed his hand on the side of my face, he leaned in and then all of the sudden BG ran outta the house yelling. "CANNON BALL!!! LOOK OUT Y'ALL!!!!!!"

He splashed me and Thomas when he made contact with the water. I was kinda bummed I didn't get to kiss Thomas. I sighed. Bg grabbed me when he surfaced. I laughed. He threw me across the pool. It hurt like hell when I hit the unforgiving water. But I surfaced laughing. Bg's smirk was triumphant, that is until Amber walked over to the side of the pool and crossed her arms at her husband. I rolled my eyes. Amber started complaining about something.
Me and Thomas snuck out of the pool. We wrapped our towels around ourselves. We hurried inside. Thomas smiled at me and took the end of his towel wiping water off my nose. I giggled, making my dimples show brighter. He grinned. "You have the prettiest smile". He says.

He leaned down and his mouth nearly hit mine. My eyes widened when all of the sudden Brantley grabbed Thomas by his shirt lifting him off the ground with ease. "Brant!!!" I gasped. "Did you just put your lips on my woman!" Bg growled. "Your woman?!" Thomas questions.
I gave BG a look. He glared at Thomas who he still held off the ground by a few centimeters.
Amber walked into the room and tapped her foot angrily. "Amber, I'm busy". Bg says. She huffed at Bg. "Let them alone bg"."your supposed to protect me not her!" Amber whined. "Bg put him down!! Now!" I say pointing a finger in my friends face.
BG glared at Thomas again. "Bg drop him!!!" I finally growled at my friend. "I'm not your woman". I say quietly. "You called her your woman, she's not your woman I am!!!" Amber said crossing her arms all mad.

Bg dropped Thomas back onto his feet. I stepped in front of Thomas to protect him from my overly protective friend. Bg rolled his eyes and Amber gave me an evil look. "You wanna go to my house tonight where it'll just be us?" I asked him. "Sure, I'd love to". Thomas says.
