The world seemed to slow down around me as he grabbed my hand and twirled me around. We laughed and sang to the song that was playing throughout the house. "I can't believe that I'm so comfortable with you." I told him. He gave that same smile that made me feel welcome at the door. "Do you want a drink?" He asked me. "How about you get me one of those sushi snacks too" I told him. "Funny funny." He said as he went for the snacks. I could see Jen and Kam mingling and eating snacks in the living room. My room searching was interrupted by his beautiful face. I smiled and thanked him for my drink and snack. Before I took my first sip, I told him "I never got to know your name. "I'm Blake." He replied.
"Well Blake, thanks for my snacks." I said. The punch tasted a bit funny, but the sushi was still good. "Wanna go put your feet in the pool?" He asked. "Sure." I replied.
We walked out to the backyard where there was another load of people, and sat on the edge of the pool. The water was at a nice cool, but not too cold temp and it made me tingle all over. Blake sat beside me and put his hand on my back.
"It would be a shame if someone pushed you into the pool." He teased. "Please don't." I laughed.
For the first time in a long time, I was really enjoying someone that wasn't Kamrin or Jen. "The party is gonna end in an hour or two, when it is, can I drive you home? "I'll have to think about it." I told him. He nodded and slipped into the pool water with my hand. I could feel my feet sink to the bottom of the pool "you're lucky you got me in" I smirked.
"There's nothing wrong with taking a swim." He said as he floated around me. Blake sank underneath the water and grabbed my legs. I already knew what was coming, so I closed my eyes and grabbed my nose. He picked me up with ease and dunked me into the water. Bubble blinded my vision when I opened my eyes and my back softly hit the bottom. It didn't take me long to sit up and fully open my eyes to see Blake sitting Indian style waving at me. I smiled and waved back. He's so charming.
