Caius's Mate

Two

I was shaken awake groaning looking at the time. 3:06 AM. Whats going on? Hannah shook me once more.

I looked up at her groggily. "Come on we're going to sneak into the pool," she signed.

I sat up yawning. "Why... its three am," 

"It'll be fun," she signs to me.

I sighed getting up. Hannah was already in her swimsuit, so was Cameron.

"I'll just watch"

"No that's not any fun" she signs.

I groaned and headed to the dresser grabbing my swimsuit, going into the bathroom changing.

"There we go. Come on don't be a party pooper," she signs.

I sighed. "I'm coming. I'm coming,"

She smiled grabbing my arm. Paul, Jazmine, and Dianna were in the hall waiting.

The six of us headed into the pool area. Cameron came running in doing a cannonball. I chuckled as I watched him.

I went over and sat in the hot tub, watching everyone swim. I wasn't a fan of swimming but the hot tub I enjoy.

They were splashing each other like little kids. I laughed watching them though I did cringe away when some of the cool water splashed on me.

"Izzy come on," Jazmine said.

I shook my head. "Im good," I watched her.

She Rolled her eyes doing a flip into the pool making a big splash. Water going all over me.

"Jazmine!" I yelled at her and gave her the evil eye.

She laughed at me.

People always ask how can I tell if someone is laughing. Well its pretty simple, well at least it is simple for me. Since I was born with the ability to hear I remember the way it looked and sounded. I cant hear anymore but I could definitely tell when my friends were laughing at me.

We spent several hours at the pool before they all tired each other out. I got out grabbed a towel putting it around me. I looked at the clock. 5:16 am. Good luck with sleep.

We snuck back into our room. I changed into a shirt laying down crashing hard for the next two hours.

I woke up feeling my watch vibrate.  Cameron and Hannah were still sleeping.

I headed to the bathroom showering, hoping to get all the chlorine smell off of me.

I got dressed in jean shorts and a tank top. It was supposed to be 97 out today. Clear skies. It was almost 8:30 and we had to be down for breakfast before 9:00.

I went over to Hannah shaking her first. She hit my arm not in the mood.

I rolled my eyes then jumped on top of her.

She immediately woke up, hitting me in the head. I got off of her watching her. "Jesus Christ Izzy!" She gasped.

I got the jist if what she was saying and laughed. "Its 8:30... time to wake up," I shrugged.

She rolled her eyes and gave me the middle finger and she groggily went over to get dressed. I headed over to wake up Cameron shaking him over and over.

He refused to wake up.

Hannah came over and grabbed the pillow from under him and began hitting him.
