Munchkin

•Thirty•

Okay so I don't know what's happening with my book but it's all scrambled and the cast is gone so if you see anything weird in my chapters or whatever, let me know.

"Finn! No!" I began slapping Finn's back as I realize we're now almost out of the house. Finn was currently dangling me on his shoulder.

"You said you wanted to go swimming right?" He chuckles.

"This is not how I wanted to do i-"

My whole body is submerged underwater and I quickly kick up to the surface, gasping for air. Finn stood in his swim trunks, his body vibrating whilst he laughs and clutches his stomach. "I hate you." I glare at him while getting out of the pool.

"You're just really lucky that my top didn't come off." I didn't swim long yesterday so I was just in my same yellow swimsuit though Mia packed about two or three.

Water splashes everywhere once Finn does a cannonball into the water and I grab my towel and wrap it around myself.

I noticed Jace seated alone at one of the tables outside, still really far from the pool. I pull out a chair and sit across from him. "Why don't you come and swim?"

"Munchkin, isn't seeing you in that bright ass swimsuit sexy enough?" He smirks and I roll my eyes, ignoring the feeling going down my spine.

"Please Princess? You literally can't even come near the pool?" I pout and he rolls his eyes.

"Nope. Not happening."

"If Jace had a phobia, it'd be Poolphobia or some other funky shit." Finn chuckles to himself, putting his glasses on his wet face.

"Please Jace?" I pout and his brown eyes analyze mine. They roll to the back of his head and he answers bluntly-

"No."

I stood from my chair they both look at me. "Fine then." I storm my way into the house and decided just to wrap my towel around my waist before entering the house.

"You guys are the ones that dragged me here and yet I'm the only one outside." I glare at Mia, Drew and Zayn who were all in the living room.

"You know what? You're right. We should have like a grill or something. It's pretty warm outside, this is the best weather to do it." Zayn stood from his seat and I nod at my brother.

Drew stood from his seat. "Then why are we still standing here?"

Thirty minutes later, everyone was in their swimsuits, Drew and Zayn manning the grill, Mia, Kehlani and Kaitlyn tanning, Laila and Jordan I heard were talking in the house.

I was on the shallow side of the pool, only my feet dangling in the water and Finn was on the deeper side, Jace as always far from the pool.

I decided to text Jordan.

<< Is everything okay?

>> Yeah, everything's fine

<< What's been up with the two of you?

>> Idk I'll just try to get through to her

<< Good luck

I look up and see Jace looking at me with a concerned face before he looked back down at his phone.

Idiot: Why the sad face?

Me: Nothing and don't even try to talk to me unless you wanna come swim

Idiot: Aw, Munchkin

>> Don't be like that

>> I just don't like water is all
