“You gave me confidence in what I did, and every time I jumped in the pool, I’d imagine our dreams. I’d imagine myself on the podium. I’d start to visualize racing in a whole new light.” I started to love swimming. MPhelps/RLochte. PG-13. Slash.
Michael and Ryan both had their up and down moments, and both of them had their fair share of heartbreak. But they both manage to get through everything because of each other. However, what happens when they no longer have one another? What happens when one of them is hurt because of the other?
When there's nothing left, you just need to let go. Even when you tell the other you love them, and even if they reject you, at least you know where you stand in their hearts. Michael remembers the memories he had of him and Ryan, and they gave him the strength to make everything right again.

Reflections of You
After some rustling inside the bathroom, the door finally opens and I almost drop the clothes I'm holding. Kameron only has a towel wrapped around his waist, droplets of water dripping from his hair, down his chest, and disappearing underneath his towel. I try not to follow the path of one of the drops of water. It takes all of my self-control to look him in the eyes and no where else. I have a boyfriend. Austin. Remember him? "What do you what?" His voice is somehow even hotter. It's matured now. It's deep and a bit rough. "What does it look like? I need to shower." I say back, gesturing with the clothes I'm holding. "Shouldn't you be going to bed?" "I'm not a little girl anymore. I don't have a set bedtime." I narrow my eyes at him. He's always treated me like I'm his best friend's annoying little sister. "Yeah, I can tell." He suddenly says, suggestively running his eyes down my body. I try not to shiver from the feel of his eyes on me. I clear my throat to get his eyes back to mine. "You can move now." "Oh, can I?" He raises an eyebrow and I glare at him in return. "Relax, little girl, I'm messing with you." He rolls his eyes before walking past me. I can smell the scent of his body soap on him. Fresh, clean, and earthy with a hint of spice. I can't help but glance behind me and watch him go into his room. I can already tell this vacation is going to be a disaster. -Not revised yet, may be spelling errors & mistypes -Also on Inkitt -Dual POV
