Why is she doing this to me? She knows the effect she has on me! I took my bottom lip in between my teeth while admiring her curves. It was her idea, that we have a party in my back yard. Well. More like a pool party. Not many people are fully dressed, they have swimming costumes on. As soon as Lex took off her shorts and vest she was wearing, damn. I can't take my eyes away from her.

Her head turned this way, a cheeky grin appeared on her face. She knew what she was doing. Her back was towards me so I could only admire her from the back. My eyes widened as she bent down to pick up something that was on the floor, sticking her ass out towards me. I didn't see what she dropped exactly I was too focused on her behind.

"Hey, Bruno. Having fun her, being on your own?" As soon as they said my name, I knew they were talking to me. I pealed my eyes away from Lex to become face-to-face with, well. Someone I totally forgot about.

I mentally smacked myself, forgetting that she would be here. Of course she would be here, she's Lexi's best friend! I even forgot about her confession, but I'm not sure how. "Amanda. Hey." I leaned forward, placing my elbows onto my knees.

"Are you not going in the pool?" She took a step closer. My eyes trailed down her body, damn. How did she keep that hidden? I looked back up to her face and saw she was looking at me amusingly. She just saw me check her out, shit. I quickly looked away and back to where I last saw Lex. She was still the but to what looks to be in a deep conversation with so neither girl that I don't recognise.

"Might do. But not really in the mood right now" I heard a little gasp escape her lips which made me look back at her again. Her eyebrows are raised, creating a few lines on her forehead.

"The whole point of this..." She made a circle motion with her fingers. "...it's a pool party. I think the clue is in the title" she leaned onto one leg, placing her hand on her hip while looking at me.

"Why don't you tell everyone else that, so they go in?" She rolled her eyes, making me smile. Her body moved so that she was now sitting next to me on the long sun bed. I could tell by her face that something was nothing her. "What is it?" My eyes never left her face as she looked everywhere else, but me.

"You haven't told Lex about what I said to you. Have you?" It sounded more like a statement than a question. I didn't really know what to answer. What did she want me to say? If I told Lex, then their friendship could be at risk and I could never wish for that to happen to anyone.

"I totally forgot about it, surprisingly" her head shot in my direction, looking at me.

"Love can't be forgotten, Bruno. It can't just disappear." I could see slight anger on her facial expression which made me more uncomfortable.

"Well maybe it's for that best if it is forgotten." I stood up from the chair that I have been sat it for the last 30 minutes or so. She sprung to her legs not moments after me.

"I-I can't. You don't understand how hard it is! To love someone and they don't love you back. Why don't you like me like you love Lex? What does she have that I don't?" I could see tears welling up in her eyes. A flush of guilt whipped over me.

"I don't know. It's just Lex, she is my everything..."

"You met her by a one night stand, how can that be love?" I felt anger start to bubble inside of me. How dare she think that I don't love her?

"Look." I said sharply and quietly, trying not to draw attention to us. "You don't know anything. Anything. About us. So just stay out of it!" I walked away, not wanting to talk to her for a second longer. I don't know where I was going but I knew that I wanted to be far away from her.

"Bruno" a soft familiar voice spoke behind me. I turned around to see my angel, Lex. As soon as I saw her, I immediately calmed down. "Are you alright?" I linked my fingers with hers, pulling her closer.

"Yeah. I'm 'ight" she smiled shyly and swayed our arms together. I looked and followed her gaze to see where she was looking. The pool. I looked back at me and an idea popped into my head.

I let go of our hands and quickly bent down and wrapped my arms around the back of her thighs. I picked her up over my shoulder and walked to the pool, earning a little squeal from her. Without warning, I threw her in the deep end of the pool and jumped in straight after.

As soon as I surfaced I gave my head a quick shake, getting some of the water off from my head. Lexi surfaced and gasped, her eyes wide. "Bruno! You jerk!" I laughed and swam closer towards her.

"I'm a what?" I whipped the smile away and pretended to be serious. She backed away until her back came in contact with a wall side. I blocked her in, placing each hand either side of her.

She smirked and placed her hands on my hair and the back of my head and gently massaged. She knows I like it when she does that. I closed my eyes, groaning slightly. "What was that?" She laughed. Her legs wrapped around my hip and pulled my body right against hers. "What do you think about this bikini by the way? It's new" she pushed her chest forwards, making me look down at it.

"It's made for you." I looked up to her, she smiled at me. I leaned forward and grazed my lips gently across hers, the contact barely noticeable. I felt her shiver against me. I leaned back and looked at her face and smiled as she still had her eyes shut. I leaned back in and kissed her this time.

Our tongues danced together in each others mouth. I started to get excited which made her tighten her hips around me while gently rubbing against me. I moaned, forgetting that we weren't alone.

I suddenly stopped. I pulled away and looked at her. Her eyes opened and she looked at me in confusion. "What's wrong?" Her hand cupped my cheek. I bit my lip, still looking at her.

"If we go any further, I won't be able to stop myself..." She pulled me back against her body.

"Then why don't we go into the house and carry on?" I groaned, liking that idea. But I knew better.

"We will. When everyone has left. I promise you, it'll be the best you've ever had" she smiled and bit her lip. "I'll got fast or slow, hard or gentle. Anything you want baby"

"I get to chose?" I slowly nodded my head, wanting to know what she is thinking right now. Her leaned in close so that her mouth is right next to my ear. "I want you to make love to me. I want you so bad, Bruno" she moaned the last part making me close my eyes.

"I will baby. Just you wait" her lips connected back to mine. She pulled away, smiling. I could see a twinkle in her eye that I haven't noticed before. "I'll show you the Sex Dragon I am" I winked at her, sending her a teasing smile.
