Two of a kind

    Chapter 1:

 Carmen's POV:

     "Come on cary! Whats taking so long? Just jump!" Chazz proded from the deep end of the pool. Thats just like him, trying to get me to do somethingdangerous like always.

"You know I can't swim!" I argued uselessly, we both knew I would jump.

"I'll catch you its fine!" He yelled. I sighed, and walked to the edge of the pool. A light drizzle took ace in my anxiety. Chazz rolled his eyes at me.

"Would you calm down it'll be fine."

I took a deep breath, closed my eyes, counted to three, and finally jumped.                                    

The water was refreshingly cool compared to the Arizona heat im used to. Chazz wrapped his arms around me and pulled me up. I broke the surface laughing, Chazz joined in as he swam me to the side of the pool. The rain had stopped and the sun was shinning. Chazz smiled at me revealing his dimples. " See that wasn't so bad" I shrugged at him.

" Hey guys!" we both turned to see Megan swimming towards us,( ahh, megan your everyday witch,no seriously shes a witch)

" hey whats up?"

" Oh nothing much, Chazz is just tryna kill me like always."

" I am not" Chazz argued "Cary's just being a baby"

" Hey I jumped didnt I?"

"I guess" Chazz shrugged.

"You guys wanna go on the water side?" Megan interupting further argument. She only looked at Chazz.

It was so cute, her crush on him, but he saw nothing in her and we all knew it. Now dont get me wrong Chazz was straight, smart, SUPER hot, funny,and fun to be around he had it all. I've known him for over eight years, after he'd stopped these boys from picking on me. We had been best friends ever since, but I really only saw him as an older brother. Plus Im only 18and just getting ready to start collegein the spring. He's 22 and should be getting out soon with his bachalor degree. Then theres Megan who is completely in love with him,so.....yeah it would never work.

"Nah, you guys go ahead. I think Im just gonna sit here a while." I said trying to give her some alone time with Chazz.

"Um, yeah me too, I'll just stay with Cary" Chazz anounced.

A swing and a miss! I thought feeling bad for megan. Darn that boy's crush on me! Im not even sure why he likes me. I dont think of myself as all that pretty. I mean with my narrow face and baby cheecks, honey colored skin with reddish hair that goes down to my waist and a narrow body people say im pretty but I just dont see it. I would think that I looked more like a kid, but Chazz is six feet four inches of pure hard dark-skinned muscle, all man.

"Oh ok, well i'll see you guys later" Megan said sadly before she swam away. Me and Chazz got out of the water, I turned and looked at him.

"Come on, you know she likes you why dont you give her a chance?" I asked ringing out my hair and putting it into its tipical braid. Chazz shrugged and gave me a look asking 'why dont you take your own advice?' I smirked at him as he went to go get our towels.

........................................................................................

"Oh-wee! Richard lookie what I caught!" Some loser yelled pulling at my braid.

"Oh my shes a pretty little thing aint she, but I think its 'bout time to throw her back." The one called richard fake pouted. They both picked me up and started swinging me over the deep end.

"No! no please stop! leave me alone!" I yelled trying to wriggle out of their grip, but it was to late, they threw me into the water. I kicked and clawed at the water as hard as I could, but I still didnt know how to swim and I was running out of air struggling. The last thing I heard were the guys laughing before I blacked out.

 Next thing I know im being heaved onto the ground around the pool. I faintly hear gasps and worried murmurs, but mixed with those is a familiar voice telling everyone to step back. Chazz, he was back. I felt his lips on mine blowing air into my lungs and his hands pumping my chest.

"Come on Cary, I know your  still in there."I heard him say as he repeated CPRon me once, twice and ding ding ding three times the charm. I sat up coughing. Chazz pulled me to him hugging me tightly. I smiled

"Get off me you know I dont like hugs" I squinted at him"you enjoyed that didnt you?" I asked refering to the CPR eyebrow raised.

"maybe a little" he admitted with a small smile. Then his face turned grim,and his eyes locked on the guys that had pushed me in. Chazz slowly got to his feet, his fist were mclinched and shaking, his honey colored eyes blazing with rage. I scrambled to my feet and grabbed his arm failing at my attempt to calm him down.

"You assholes she can't swim!!" he yelled, the rocks around him began to shake.

"Well its not like we knew that" richard said matter-of-factly unaware of the shaking rocks around them. Chazz advanced on them, but the guys moved, and Richard pulled out a switch knife.

"Yeah, try tha again" the one that wasnt Richard scoffed as he pulled his own blade. Ok now I was pissed off which is never good. I let go of Chazz and stepped up infront of him knowing my eyes were a blazing scarlet. They'd gone way too far now, throwing me into the deep end was one thing but threats against my best friend sure as hell dont sit well with me. Everything went dark, lightning flashed above, and rocks began raising from the ground. Oops, I'd borrowed some of Chazz's power. Oh well, in this case they came in handy. With my hand I motioned for a poolside chair to hold the boys against the wall, the chair followed suit pinning them to the nearest wall. I took even steps towards them as they uslessly tried to wriggle away. I removed te chairnd settled for lifting them I went and held them high above the pool.

"Oh god! Tom she's one of those freaks!"Richard yelled.

"No shit!" Tom yelled back."Ok look were sorry for the whole throwing you into the pool thing, Now can you just let us go!?!?!?" He pleaded.

I felta wicked smile that didnt belong to me spread across my face and I blacked out.

Simone's POV:

Hell yeah! I got control, finally! I felt like the girl was gonna burst from all of her held in rage. She faught to keep control but lost, I smilled at the pure fear in the two boy eyes as I held they're lives in my hand. I squeezed and they yelled out in pain. Oh how I love screams of terror what could ever sound sweeter? But after being held in someone elses body for so long, especually someone as good as controlling anger as carmen is, I almost never get to hear them. agh! damn shes regaining control and boy is she a fighter I lost my grip and so did she, dropping the boys into the pool, lucky bastards. Well, until next time. I smiled as I felt myself fade away.

Carmen's POV:

What the hell was that!?! I asked myself. I saw the two boys drop into the water. When had I dropped them? Whatever I'll figure it out later, right now I just had to get outta here. I turned on my heel and ran out of the water park hearing lifeguards yell at me'no running' I rolled my eyes and thought to myself 'oh please'.
