chapter seven

i dragged stiles back into my room, and everyone applauded. they must have heard that stiles and i were officially dating. i turned to bury my bright pink face in his chest, as he brought his hand to his face, covering it. scott laughed, stood, and patted stiles' back.

"i'm proud of ya bud. didn't think you had it in ya!" stiles laughed in response. i felt my cheeks cool down, and i left from stiles' chest.

"how about instead of being kept inside, we should go swimming at the school, i mean we all have a card to get in, right?" allison pulled her student i. d. card out of her wallet.

"that sounds like a good idea, i was going to shower, but since we're going to go swimming, i'll just wait until after. sound good?" i looked around the room to find faces of approval. i went to my closet and grabbed a black two piece, the top having ruffles lining the breast-line. i went into my bathroom and shut the door. i changed, and then washed my face. i rubbed some lotion on my smooth legs. i quickly ran a brush through my hair and sprayed it with dry shampoo, so it didn't look too bad. i walked out, self consciously holding my hands around my stomach. allison, lydia, and lindsey all screamed and ran to me.

"you look so cute!"

"oh my gosh i wish i had your body..."

"wow, so classy, yet so sexy..."

"stiles, don't you love this?" lydia looked over at stiles, whose mouth is hanging open. i blushed and held my stomach tighter.

"it's too much," i said, as i walked towards the bathroom. the girls began yelling 'no!' and pulling me out. "okay, okay! i'm goin' to get a towel. i'm not walking outside like this." i went to the bathroom closet, and grabbed my blue nike duffle bag. i stuffed it full of towels, and a change of clothes. i walked out, with a towel draped across my shoulders, walked past all of my friends in my room, and left. i walked over to james' room, and knocked.

"who is it? squish, you can come in. anna, don't." i opened the door and saw james sitting on his bed with his calculus text book. "what's up squish?" he laid his pencil down and patted the corner of his bed.

"well, we're all going to the pool, and i wanted to see if you wanted to come." he nodded and put a finger to his mouth.

"hmm, i don't know i'm pretty engulfed in my math homework." he spoke with much sarcasm, and then said, "i'm totally in." i smiled and excitedly ran out of his room.

"do we need to stop at anyone's house to get swim suits?" everyone nodded or agreed, and i picked up my purse. i walked down the stairs with everyone else following me, and yelled to my parents that we were going to the school.

{at the school}

stiles pulled up, then followed lydia's car, holding her, jackson, and allison, and finally lindsey's car, containing her and scott. stiles turned off his jeep and i jumped out. stiles walked around his jeep and grabbed my duffle bag, then grabbed my hand. i kissed him, and said, "is this our first date or do you have something else in mind?"

"i think this is very romantic. don't you?" he laughed at his own sarcasm. i chuckled and he opened the school door for me. he stood in front of the door, waiting for the others. james pulled up in his black suv. he ran out, and ran his fingers through his hair. he had on white swim trunks and a grey t-shirt, and lindsey got out of her truck. she had a bundle of clothes in her arms, and walked up to james.

"hey james," she said, as she traced a finger down his arm.

"hey lindsey. so, i wanna hit you up. i'm gonna friend you on facebook. i wanna get your number too."

"oh, okay." lindsey blushed and they traded phones, giving each other their contact information.

"aweee lindsey and james, you guys are so cute!" i mocked her, just as she did with me and stiles, and we walked inside. jackson, lydia, and allison followed us, jackson flirting with allison. scott ignored it, but i could tell he was mad. i heard his heartbeat, and it quickened. scott began to talk to james and jackson about the supernaturals that live in beacon hills, and how i'm a wolf, and they were totally okay with it. we got to the pool, and i laid my stuff down. stiles put my duffle bag down and breathed heavily.
