Pj, me, and some of our friends were taking out a boat to go swimming. The days were warm, and Pj was excited to get out on the water. Pj and Jamie had already gone tubing, and now we'd anchored the boat.

Jamie, Sofie, and James had already jumped off the end of the boat. I, however, was hiding in the back of the boat in my bikini, pretending to apply sunscreen.

"Babe, you coming in?" Pj asked, coming and kneeling in front of me.

"Uh, just putting on sunscreen," I chuckled.

"Why are you on the floor of the boat though, you look like you're hiding," Pj smiled.

"Nope," I said, putting on a fake smile.

"Have I told you how hot you look in that?" He asked, glancing down at my red and white spotted bikini.

"No," I smirked.

"Well you look amazing," he said kissing my neck. I grinned.

"Pj, your friends are here," I whispered.

"Okay, then let's jump in," Pj smiled. He tried to pull me up.

"You go," I tried to put on a happy face. Pj frowned and kneeled back down.

"Love," He said, putting a hand on the side of my face. His thumb caressed my cheekbone. "What's the matter?"

"Pj," I didn't meet his eyes. I felt ashamed. "I'm terrified of the water," I whispered.

"Oh no, y/n, I'm so sorry," Pj kissed my forehead. "Why didn't you say anything.

"I didn't want to ruin your day, and I'm embarrassed," I shrugged.

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about," He said sweetly.

"I just never learned how to swim, and sea creatures always scared me. I just don't like it," I said.

"Well, I mean, you can touch in some areas here," He explained.

"Maybe you can," I laughed. "You're fucking six feet tall."

"What if I hold you? I don't want you to have to be stuck on the boat all day," he offered.

"That might work," I smiled.

"You only have to be in for a little bit," he said kindly.

Pj and I slipped carefully into the water. I felt my heart hammer against my chest. Seaweed touched my leg and I almost screamed.

"Come here babe," Pj chuckled, seeing my fear. I wrapped my arms around his neck and got on his back. He looped his arms under my legs. I felt much better now that I wasn't touching the bottom with my feet. I was too high to feel the seaweed.

"This okay?" I asked Pj.

"Yeah, I'm just glad you're with me," Pj grinned back at me. I kissed his cheek happily.

"Thanks, Peej," I said.
