The Badboy And His Clique

xv.

*Aspen's P.O.V*

"Oh my god! Why did I agree to this?" I squeak.

"We dont have to swim if you don't want to."

"It's not that I don't want to swim, I have to get my fat ass over the fence." I look at the tall fence one again.

"You're not a fat ass. Don't talk about yourself like that. Plus we don't have to hop the fence. I just might have taken a key." He dangles the keys in front of me.

"Brody!" I say in a loud whisper.

"Shhh. You don't wanna get caught do ya?" He unlocks the gate.

I shake my head and we continue to enter.

"I don't have a bathing suit." I say in realization.

"You have on a bra and underwear. Same thing except made to be dry, well at least your bra." He winks.

"Oh my god." I chuckle to myself.

We both strip down the our under garments and he hops on first.

"Not even cold." He smiles.

I just stare at his perfectly chizzled out features. My eyes scan over every inch of his body noticing scars, ink, and bruises.

"Are you gonna come in or just observe me?" Brody smirks.

My eyes jump up and I smile.

"Promise you'll catch me?"

"Pinky promise." We interlock pinkies and I jump in.

Just as he promised, he caught me.

*Ryker's P.O.V*

"Are you hungry, thirsty?" I ask.

She nods, "I'm thirsty."

"I can quench that." I wink and she giggles.

"Mhm. Not what I meant Ryk." She smiles.

"Sure Sage, sure." I say playfully. "Okay, what would you like to drink?" He asks.

"Water is fine." I shrug.

"We have tea."

"Sweet?"

"Yes."

She just smiles. "I'll be right back."

*Sage's P.O.V*

After a few seconds of being alone in his room, Arrow walks in.

"Hi!" He cheers.

"Hi, how are you?"

"Good, you?"

"I'm great. You are such a nice kid." I smile at him.

"Thank you. Ryker taught me to be nice."

"Really?"

"Yeah. He doesn't want me to turn out like him." He says unaware of what not to say.

"He isn't bad." I object.

"Yeah he is. He said so himself." Arrow argues.

"Hey, listen, if he talks about himself in a bad way you correct him for me, okay?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Yes Sage." He smiles back.

"Thank you, Arrow."

"What are y'all talking about?" Ryker enters.

"How much we love you!" Arrow grins and walks out.

He gives me a weird look and I just smile.

"You know, he never talked to any of my friends, especially right away." Ryker says handing me my sweet tea.

"Thank you. But really?" I ask curious.

"Yeah, he is shy kid sometimes." He admits.

"Wow." I say in disbelief.

*Brody's P.O.V*

"Aspen?" I say as I hold her in the water.

"Hmm?"

"Can I tell you something?"

"Of course. Anything."

"I, uh, I. I like you a lot."

She gets out of my grasp and just stares.

Shit, did I already fuck up?
