"love is like water, we can fall it in, we can drown in it, but most of all, we can't live without it" in this case

y/n's pov

"come on! it's not that cold!" I hear zach exclaim. His body was floating on the clear water of his backyard pool, while I was laying by the pool, tanning. I scoff and turn around, closing my book, the low-shining sun burning in my face

"I'm just not in the mood to swim right now." I sass at him, turning back around to continue reading my book. I hear him scoff in the background, but decide to just ignore it.

"Wow, my parents aren't here, it's a beautiful, sunny day, and there's still no way I'll get you in this pool?" He questioned. I rolled my eyes and decided to just give up on reading for now. It's quite impossible when you have a boyfriend who's desperate for attention.

"I just like to tan and read, that's all." I spoke. To this point Zach was swimming laps across the pool.

"If you wanted to read books, you should've dated Jonah." He said sarcastically. My eyes grew wide at this bold statement.

"Oh believe me," I stated confidently "I wanted to, but he was taken." He stopped in his tracks and looked me dead in the eyes, the cheeky smile hanging around my lips only growing. His mouth fell open as I turned back around, to continue reading my book.

"You take that back!" He laughed, but I ignored him, fakely scanning the lines on the paper, pretending to read. Soon a shadow stood over me and my book, I felt small drips of water land on my back. I turned around to lay on my back as I looked right into Zach's dark eyes. His smirk was bigger than ever as he saw my eyes shoot to the glass of cold, pool water he was holding. My expression grew to be concerned, as he was tilting the glass of water further and further, emptying it right above my body. I shrieked, while the cold water touched my still hot torso. Making my whole body, plus bikini wet. I opened my mouth wide, scoffing, still shocked at the sudden actions Zach had taken.

"Bitch! You're gonna pay for this, Herron!" I yelled as I stood up and pushed him in the pool. He wasn't expecting this so his face showed pure surprise, but it wasn't enough for me. Not after what he did. I jumped inside the pool, inhaling sharply as I resurfaced. "You're not getting away with this."

I splashed water on him, making my way towards him at the other end of the pool. My hair was now wet, and surely tangled. He was entirely focused on pushing my head underwater, making me gasp for air.

"Fuck you!" I coughed, regaining my balance after he pushed me down.

"You wish," He smirked, going underwater and grabbing my legs pulling me underwater with him. I opened my eyes, his vague appearance standing in front of me. His eyes were open just like mine, going up and down my body. When we resurfaced I gasped for air and punched him against his shoulder.

"You're childish." I scoffed.

"You love it." He stated. Taking my cheeks in his hands and moving his plump lips to touch mine. My hands travelled up and down his back, his resting on the back of my neck, deepening our kiss. I smiled, feeling my heart throb in my chest. My cheeks got red and my lungs started burning, longing for air in our now somewhat-long make-out session. Our lips were still moving insync, his nose touching mine. I removed my sore lips from his, panting.

"I'll never get enough of that." He heaved. My heart was still beating fast as I brought my head close to his, resting it on his shoulder.

"I love you," I softly whispered in his ear, seeing shivers run down his spine. (sHiVeRinG, iM sHiVeriNg)

"And I love you." He confidently stated. If that was even possible my heart started beating even faster in my chest, feeling pure bliss spread throughout my whole body.

The sun was now starting to set. I looked up and for the first time since I entered the pool, I felt a little cold. Zach tightened his hold around my waist, opening his mouth.

"Let's get inside, it's getting cold." he said, kissing my temple.

"It's not as good as new, but I did the best I can." Zach said, referring to my wet book. When we exited the pool we noticed a few splashes of water had gotten onto my book, but honestly it didn't really matter, 'cause it was more about the inside anyway. The book landed on Zach's coffee table with a loud thud, as he sat down on the couch beside me, taking my in his lap, so we could both stretch our legs. His hot breath now fanning against my neck. My hair was still wet from our shower and now in a messy bun on my head, my body surrounded in his sweatpants and hoodie. (cuz why not?) I saw him stretching his arm out, reaching for the remote.

"Let's watch some Netflix, shall we." He suggested, and I nodded, turning l my phone off, and laying it down beside us on the couch. I snuggled up closer to him, feeling his warm body wrapped around mine.

I knocked on the door of Zach apartment, but didn't get a reaction.

"Do you think maybe he's not home?" Christina asked. We were currently baking cookies, but were all out of sugar, and since zach lived next door, we thought we'd stop by (just pretend). Zach was probably not the right person to go to asking for baking products, but since he was now dating y/n, we thought we'd give it a try. I knocked again, still no reaction, so I decided to just use the key he gave me. When the door unlocked I opened it, and let Christina enter first. I made a beeline towards the kitchen, seeing Christina stumble around the apartment a little bit. I started rummaging through the kitchen drawers, suddenly hearing Christina call me.

"Corbyn come look at this." She yelled from the living room. I entered, and when I stood next to her, I saw y/n laying on top of Zach, as both of them were sleeping peacefully, while the tv was still on. "Aren't they cute?" Christina asked. I nodded and showed her the sugar I found.

"But we can get to those cookies now." I smiled, grabbing a post-it note, writing Zach I borrowed his sugar.

"Hey bro,
burrowed your sugar, hope you don't mind. Also, you guys are cute :)
- Corbyn"

I stuck the note on the tv, knowing we were gonna tease him with this.
