RUBY POV:

We got downstairs and she led me outside to the pool area where we could see Taiki by a storage shed. We approached her and she smiled at me before looking at seiya .

"I need your help bringing out the pool accessories for the guest." she tells Seiya, who nods and points at me. "Ruby wants to help." she said smiling. Taiki looked at me and smiled.

"If you don't mind helping ,then thanks." she said gracefully.

"No problem." I said smiling . Taiki nodded then opened the door to the shed and turned on a light. Inside was all kinds of pool floats and water guns and other things. We got in and started taking out some floats and even a volleyball net. When we was done I helped Seiya put up the volleyball net on one side of the pool. When we was done with that ,Seiya turned to me and spoke.

"Do you wanna stay out here and just chill by the pool?"

"Sure." I replied smiling .

"OK great ,there's a bathroom in the house that you can change into. I'm just gonna change right here." Seiya told me and I grinned at her.

"I can do that too. I'm already wearing mine. " I tell her and she blushed and smirked .

"OK...." she started untying the bow on her shirt , then proceeded to take off her see through top . Once she did that she reached for her leather shorts. My breath hitched a little when she starts pulling them down. I could see her black matching bikini bottoms. After she was done, she folded her clothes and sat them on a nearby chair then looked at me and smiled.

"OK your turn." I swallowed and did a little smile still mesmerized at her body. First I took off my Versace sneakers and socks. As I was about to take off my shorts , Seiya laughed. I look up to see her looking at my socks.

"Are those Ninja Turtle socks?" she asked amused. I grinned at her.

"Yep couldn't you tell I'm a fan?" I say and point at the tattoo on my arm of Leonardo , one of the teenage mutant Ninja turtles . She laughs again crossing her arms , shaking her head.

"Well I'm glad I'm not the only one with a childish nature sometimes."

I winked at her and deliberately pulled my black basket ball shorts down as slow as I possibly could ,while staring at her ,watching her reaction . She blushed and bit her lip nervously. After I took those off I reached for my white shirt and started just as slowly. I heard her gasp when I lifted it over my head and finally got it off. I had on a blue one piece with different stripped colored patterns in it .

When I looked up I smirked at her reaction . She was biting her nails and shifting her eyes away from my body every few seconds. She's nervous? I smiled having a naughty thought . I slowly walked up to her and put on my most innocent face. I get really close to her ,that there's almost no space in between us. She was shorter than me so she had nice view of my chest ,and since she was already looking down. I could tell she was looking at it because her cheeks got red . I smirked enjoying her reaction .

"What's wrong Seiya? Your face is all red."

I asked sounding innocent like I wasn't aware of the effect I was having on her.

"N-nothing..." she mumbled still looking down. I tried to lean down to look at her face but she shifted the other way ,hiding her eyes. I chuckled and lifted my hand to her bangs combing my fingers through them until they were straight then I placed my hand on her cheek and she had her eyes closed . She's so beautiful ....

I then stroke her  cheek twice softly , feeling heat on them , then trailed my fingers down her cheek and under her chin and lifted it to my face.

"Do I make you nervous?" I whispered to her. She just stared  at me for minute before she answered.

"Yes .....yes you do." I smiled at her teasingly.

"Good to know ." she closes her eyes and sighs.

"The thing is I don't find it funny."  she replied and stepped back ,and walked around me to the pool and stood there staring at the water arms crossed. I bit my lip and walked over to her. I didn't mean to upset her. I stopped right beside her and stared at her.

"I'm sorry if I upset you ,I just wanted to tease you. I won't do it again if you don't like it." I told her . She looked at me and smiled sadly.

"No you didn't upset me , I've just had a lot on my mind lately." she says then sits down on the edge of the pool sticking her feet in the water. I copied her and sat down beside her. Surprisingly the water was warm instead of cold when you usually get in a pool. We sat there silent for a minute then I looked over at her.

"If you wanna talk about it , you know I'm here if you need to talk you know." I tell her and hesitantly put my hand on her shoulder. Seiya sighed and looked at me.

"Well I've been....torn about my feelings lately. And I don't know what to do about it." I grabbed her hand and squeezed it.

"Yeah sometimes our emotions can really Fuck us up sometimes but what exactly are you torn about?" I asked her . I want to help her if I can.I don't like seeing her so sad. Seiya looked down at my hand on hers and rubbed her thumb on my skin. She then shifted slightly so she was facing me more directly.  She licked her lips and spoke.

"Well....I've realized some things since we've been hanging out lately." she says sighing.

"Like what?" I asked curiously . She looked nervous when she replied .

"Like the fact that I like you. And my feelings keep getting stronger." she confessed.

I stared at her and stopped breathing for a second . She likes me? I smiled widely at her wanting to kiss her so badly right now.

"I like you too Seiya." Seiya smiles then sighs.

"But the problem is I like NO I love someone else . I have let her go physically ,but I don't know how to emotionally  and I feel bad because I know you like me and I do want to date you ,but it doesn't feel right to if I'm in love with someone else..." Seiya said trailing off. I thought about what she said before answering.

"I understand what you're saying but at the same time I think I deserve a chance." I tell her seriously staring at her. She nods staring at me.

"I know you do believe me I know. Can you give me a little more time to think about it?" she asked me . I smiled at her and reached with my other hand to stroke her cheek .

"Of course I'm not rushing." I  smiled.

"Thank you." she then leans over and kisses my cheek and I lean over and kissed hers. We look at each other and laughed.

"OK enough of the serious stuff lets talk about something light." she says smiling widely. I laugh and nod at her then we start talking about things that was coming up. While seiya had her back turned ,I saw a girl with blonde hair and blue eyes came out from the house and snuck behind seiya. The girl took her hands and covered them over Seiya's eyes. Seiya stopped talking and gripped the hands that were on her eyes.
"What the---". Seiya asked moving the hands and turning around .

"Surprise!" The girl said in a high pitched voice, that was thick on with a Japanese accent. I watched as seiya just stared with her mouth open.

"Serena...."
