Swimming with Dan
"Noooooooooooooooo" screamed Dan as he awoke on Wednesday morning, this was the day he had been dreading. The start of school swimming lessons. You see during the last couple of months after the clue hunt dan had actually decided to learn the way of the ninja, more specifically a bunch of martial arts like Kung Fu , Tae Kwan Do, etc.
Well martial arts require you to stay fit so let's just say Dan had quite the body. He had a six pack his biceps were quite big, and other muscly stuff which a normal 12 year old shouldn't have.
To tell the truth Dan wasn't really comfortable with his muscles he wanted more than anything to fit in, but that didn't really work when you wore loose hoodies and long pants to school to cover up the muscles or you went into the bathroom to change for P.E.
Swimming was a problem, sure he liked to swim in the pool that he and Amy owned but the problem was the swim suits. No matter what you tried you could not hide any muscles in a swim suit. The rash shirts were so tight that you could see every single bump through it so no chance hiding muscles in that. The board shorts never went further than his knees. So nothing would hide those well muscled legs.
The sad part was that Dan had to go to school the principal said that unless you were in hospital you had to swim, (yes that meant people with broken bones had to swim too).
Dan reluctantly got ready and started to go to school, riding his bike instead of the bus to stay fit. Sometimes he wished he hadn't picked to focus on martial arts in his madrigal training sometime he wished he could be like Amy focus of strategies and still stay fit but not crazy fit like Dan was.
When he arrived at school he locked his bike and walked to his home room. There was a ton of exited chatter in home room as Dan walked in and sat next to his friend Ryan. "On, I am so excited for swimming" exclaimed Ryan as Dan sat down "We finally get to skip boring normal P.E and have fun in the pool!".
The rest of the day passed normally until maths ended. Everyone walked out of the classroom chattering about swimming lessons.
Everyone was ready and waiting for Dan to come out of the changing room. They waited for 5 minutes till Mr. Smith the P.E teacher finally yelled "Dan come out of the changing room, we want to swim!".
"No" came the reply "I don't want to"
"Aw wittle Danny uncomfortable about his body?" The class bully Sebastian taunted " Dan Dan doesn't like the rolls of fat the surround his stomach?"
The whole class laughed with an exception of Ryan who just looked annoyed.
"Fine" Dan said "but don't judge me. Ok?"
"Ok, we won't judge ickle Dan on his body weight right?" Sebastian said looking at the class who just nodded their heads and voiced their agreement.
So the door opened and the Class gasped. They didn't know that ninja obsessed Dan Cahill would have a body like that.
Sebastian just walked up to Dan and said "Hey who did you pay to give you such a realistic 6 pack?"
"I didn't" Dan said " Just decided to work out a bit"
"Lies!" the bully said eyeing Dan "there is no way that you could have gotten that body, let's see how strong that suit is."
Suddenly Sebastian punched Dan in the stomach, then grabbing his hand whimpering. "That that thing is real!" He yelled before running of to the nurse to heal his throbbing hand.
"Why didn't you tell us that you had a body like this" Marie Jones the queen bee asked Dan.
"Because I knew this would happen" Dan replied truthfully.
"Ok, everyone in the pool! Shows over, 3 laps of freestyle start swimming now!" shouted Mr. Smith.
"Something tells me that every girl in our year will practically worship you now." Ryan joked as he and Dan dived into the pool.
