Ari's POV

It was now 1AM and the party had shifted to the swimming pool area.
Someone had brought the music system out as well and most of the girls had changed into their bikinis. Only a few of the guys bothered to bring their bathing suits, the rest just stripped off and jumped into the pool in just their boxers.
Joey had even organised trays of sausages and other short eats that were arranged on tables all around the pool.
After our kiss, everyone jumping into the pool pretty much ruined all chances of us having any kind of conversation about it.
I couldn't stay there and deal with the awkward 'after-mush-moment' so I shyly excused myself saying I'd change into my bikini and come back. I'd already seen Tasha, Natalie and the guys in the pool.

My body was still feeling hot and tingly after our kiss and I just needed some time to recollect myself and cool down.

What did that kiss even mean? Did he like me as much as I liked him?
I scoff to myself, highly doubting the possibility of him liking me.
We were total opposites. Based on his history of flings, I knew he liked girls who were alot more experienced than I ever was. He liked girls who were confident in their own skin and were always dressed to impress.

I, on the other hand, wore sweats in my free time and the only time I was ever confident was on the dance floor.
Outside the dance floor I preffered to stay away from all the attention. I didn't enjoy people looking at me. Sure when I was with my friends and we were upto no good, people would look. But they were just looking at what we did. Not specifically at me.

I pick up my pumps that were left on the side and stepped into the house. I grabbed my clothes bag which had my bikini in it and took it to one of the bathrooms off the side of the hallway.

As soon as I shut the door, somebody raps their fist against the door, "Hey Ari! Open the door!"
It was Eli. Super annoyed that he wouldn't let me change in peace I yelled back, "What do you want?!"

"I need to change into my swimming trunks! There's no other free bathroom! " he answers back.
You've gotta be kidding me right now!

"Why don't you wait till I'm done?!" I scream at the door.

"Please Ari! Just open it! I'm freezing my balls off here!" he whines and that's when I remember he was soaking wet just like I was.

Feeling bad for him I slowly open the door just enough to take a peak at him.

He was drenched, water dripping from the ends of his hair and onto his face. His shirt clung to his body and he hugged himself to trap as much warmth that he had left.

His eyes were boring into me, pleading me to let him in.

I sigh but tell him sternly, "I'm going to be changing here as well. So if you take so much as a peep, be it through peripheral vision or not, Eli Anderson, believe me when I say, I will slaughter you."

To my annoyance he looks amused instead of intimidated, "Okay. Now let me through."
Once he enters he continues the rest of his sentence, "But I make no promises" and then snickers when I slap him on the back of the head.

After making sure he faces his back to me and after checking for any reflective planes on his side of the bathroom, I go to my end and face him while I start to change. That way I could tell if he was peaking at me without my back turned to him.

That didn't prove to be very smart because the next minute I hear him squealing like a little girl, "Eye-rape!" because I was facing his direction.
