Lifeguard
Cat- Hiya! I have made another one-shot! I usually don't like one-shots because they seem rushed to me. You know, being a one-shot and all. But I had a change of judgment for them. So here you go!
It was a bright and sunny July afternoon at Sakura Pool. The sky was clear from any clouds that seemed to have passed by overnight. The kids were splashing and the parents were scolding them from running around the pool's outer edge. All was well for the lifeguard that was on duty that week, for nobody had started drowning; during her shifts, anyway.
The 18 year old Momomiya Ichigo was the lifeguard for the pool for the whole week, seeking to earn some money. Although, lifeguarding may seem fun and anticipating, it was actually quite boring. Sitting in the designated lifeguard chair, waiting for something to happen.
Though Ichigo didn't know it, trouble was going to happen soon enough, as the well-known Ikisatashi (AN- Did I spell that right?) brothers were sitting in lounging chairs. The eldest of the brothers, Pai, was lounging in the chair, resting his eyes, although not asleep. The middle-child, Kish, was sitting on the chair, itching to get into the pool. And the youngest of the trio, Taruto, was off in the pool playing with a young blonde little girl by the name of Pudding (AN- Yes, I had to put that in there XD) in a bright-yellow one-piece bathing suit.
Ichigo scanned the pool, hoping, and not hoping, to see someone in need of help. I didn't sign up for lifeguarding only to find that this is the most boring job in the world. She thought. Ichigo was wearing the standard lifeguarding pool uniform, but in a bikini. It was red with a plus sign on her left breast; her hair in her normal ponytails. Then, she glanced over at the two brothers sitting in the chairs. All clear over there. She thought as she looked around the area.
For a brief moment, she locked eyes with Kish, but looked away. However, Kish kept staring. Wow, she's looks so hot. He thought. "Hey, Pai?" Kish said. Pai looked over. "Look at the lifeguard. Isn't she cute?" Kish asked.
"I have no time for childish judgments of other people's demeanor (AN- So rude, Pai, Jesus XD). I'm going for a swim." Pai replied as he got up and walked toward the pool.
Then Kish got an idea. He walked to the pool and got as close as he could to the lifeguard station without being suspicious. He then jumped in, and started to commence his brilliant plan.
Ichigo watched with curiosity. Will this be the time when I finally have to save somebody? She asked herself. She watched as Kish slowly floated up, only to witness that he started panicking in the water, flailing his arms about.
"Help! I'm drowning!" Kish yelled as he gagged on some of the chlorine-filled pool water. Here we go. Ichigo thought to herself. She blew her whistle, signaling everybody to stand back, and dived into to the water.
She swam over to the boy in distress and cautiously held him by neck from behind. "Calm down, I'm right here." She said only to find the boy unconscious. She swam to the edge of the pool and lifted the boy out of the water and onto the ground. She got out of the water and glanced around. By then, everybody was watching with hopeful eyes.
Ichigo quickly turned to the boy lying on the ground and fell to her knees. She put her cheek near his mouth and watched his chest for any signs of him breathing, only to find that he wasn't. She quickly positioned her hands in the middle of his chest, laced her fingers together, and started pumping. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5…. She thought as she pumped her hands on his chest, all the way to thirty.
She then pinched his nose, opened his mouth, and put her mouth on his. Before she started to blow, however, she found the boy kissing back. Ichigo jumped up at the feeling, angered at the boy for faking the whole thing. The crowd watching gasped. "What the hell do you think you're doing?!" Ichigo yelled.
The boy stood up and smirked. "What? Kitty didn't like my kiss? Name's Kish, by the way." The crowd quickly dispersed, not wanting to witness the scene that started to break out.
"No, I didn't like your fucking kiss! Is this some kind of joke? Because something this ridiculous could get you banned from ever coming back here!"
"Awww, I just wanted to have some fun. Besides, you looked pretty sexy sitting in that chair, and even more standing in front of me." Kish smirked.
"Why you little…you know what, my shifts done, I'm going home. But I'm leaving you with a warning. Don't ever do that again." Ichigo said and stormed off into the women's bathroom.
"See you tomorrow, kitty." Kish smirked.
Pai then walked over to Kish. "What the hell were you thinking?! I was in the middle of talking to Lettuce and you come and do something disgraceful!"
"Who's Lettuce?" Kish said, confused.
Pai mumbled something unintelligible. "A girl I met, now do not do anything else stupid. You actually had me and Taruto worried." He then walked away.
Stupid boy. Ichigo thought as she changed out of her bathing suit. I oughta kill him if I see him tomorrow. But in a way, he was KINDA hot…No! What am I thinking!?
The next day…
It was another bright and sunny day at the pool. Ichigo was doing her same routine. Although, she often caught herself staring into the distance with Kish on her mind. Why is he stuck in my head? He's actually a pretty good kisser now that I think about it…And speak of the devil. Ichigo thought as she caught sight of Kish staring at her while sitting in the lounge chair.
When Kish noticed her staring back, he smirked and waved. A deep crimson blush appeared on her face as she turned away. So she did like me kiss, eh? Kish thought. He got up and strutted over to the lifeguarding station.
"Hey koneko-chan, remember me?" Kish said with confidence in his voice.
"How could I forget you, baka?" Ichigo answered with annoyance.
"Look, I'm sorry about yesterday. I just saw a really pretty girl and wasn't in my right mind. Would you forgive me?" Kish said sincerely.
Ichigo was astonished. "Wow, who knew you could be so sincere?" She said sarcastically. He looks SO hot right now…Baka! Stop thinking like that!
"I have my moments." Kish smirked. Ichigo couldn't help but giggle. Kish smiled a genuine smile. He's actually a lot nicer than I thought. Then a bunch of dirty thoughts flew into her mind and she started to have a fantasy right on the spot, which caused her face to heat up as a deep blush appeared on her face.
"So…" Ichigo began. "Why'd you come over here?" She asked.
"Well…" Kish started while a light blush appeared on his face. Ichigo giggled again. "I was wondering if you wanted to go out sometime…" Kish looked away as his face turned red from embarrassment. Ichigo burst out laughing. "What's so funny?" Kish asked with a wavering voice.
"Your face is so red!" Ichigo gasped. This only made Kish turn red even more, and Ichigo started laughing hysterically. "Do you wanna go out or not?" Kish said as his face turned back to normal.
Ichigo managed to stop laughing enough to answer. "Sure! Now go away, I have work to do." She smirked. Kish started to walk away. Then Ichigo called out, "Name's Ichigo, by the way." Kish stopped for a second, looked over his shoulder and smiled; then continued walking.
Cat- That was actually pretty funny in my opinion XD
Ichigo- Who cares about your opinion?
Cat- *cracks knuckles*
Ichigo- NYA! *runs away*
Cat- Anyway, I think this turned out pretty well! My hands are cramping, but whatever XD So if anybody wants like a sequel to this, then I'm more than happy to write one, and I'm even willing to put a lemon in it if you guys want ;D (I completely changed my opinion on lemons after reading one that was kinda funny XD) So if you want a sequel, let me know in a review! Ja ne!
