The Boy Next Door

Chapter 16 : Body Language

I finished my homework first, but by the time I was done putting it all back into my backpack, Nick was done too

"Soo what do you wanna do now?" I ask Nick
"Well interviews are at 5 and it's-" he looks to his watch, "- 4:12"
"Damn I should probably go get ready..."
"Alright, you need a ride there?" He asks
"Probably, yeah" I squinted my eyes and cheesily smiled at him
"Yeah I'll take you"

I got to my house and put the red bathing suit into the washer, then I put my dirty blonde hair into a slick ponytail

I put on a white Champion shirt with red letters
A pair of light washed blue jeans
And then I slipped on some red checkered vans

I took the bathing suit out and quickly threw it in the dryer

Nick/ You ready?
Me/ Yeah just about
Nick/ Aight I'll go start the Jeep

I pulled my workout bag from my closet and put in the essentials

Then took the suit out the dryer and stuffed it into the bag

I got outside and saw Nick in the car bobbing his head

I walked around to the passenger side and opened the door

Immediately Stiff Arm fills my ears

"Oh my god" I laugh and get into the car

Nick laughs, turns it up, then starts driving

"You nervous?" He says glancing at me

"Yeah. Definitely. But I'll be fine," I reassure myself

"Soo, any hot guys there?" I giggle

"Yeah, right now like two, but I don't know about the new guys coming today"

"Oh, what are their names?"

"The hotter one is Nick, he's pretty funny too,"

I role my eyes and hide my small laugh

"but the other one is Sean, my best friend there, he's 20"

"Mm you'll have to introduce me" i joke with him

He looks at me and roles his eyes

"I'm just playing" I laugh finally

"So what about hot girls?" I say, curious

"There's this one girl, pretty fine, her names Ashley," he says

"Oh, nice." Did I just get kind of

Jealous

Why would I be jealous of Nick saying another girl is fine??

We get to the water park

"We're here" Nick says, as if I can't see the glorious water park in front of me

We get out and walk up

A couple of guys come up to Nick and do that handshake shit, some look at me

I admit, I got nervous

I repositioned my bag so it was in front of me and i was holding it with both hands, swaying with my knees

Nick looked at me and I guess my body language gave me away

He put the arm closest to me around my shoulders and squeezed my shoulder pulling me a little bit closer to him

"You'll be fine," he said looking at me, smiling

I smiled back
