Finding Love In The Deep End
"So...you really can't swim?" Edward asked me once we got out of Coach Clapps office.
I rolled my eyes, "Yes, I really can't swim"
His lips curled up at the end of his mouth, forming a slight smile.
"What?" I asked, becoming increasingly irritated knowing I was the joke.
He shook his head, still smiling. "Nothing, so I hope you have your kit with you, meet me at the pool after last period and we'll take it from there,"
My eyes grew wide, "Wait, your serious?"
He nodded his head slowly, looking at me like I'm an idiot. "Yeah, I need to go to that trip and I can't unless you know how to swim so..." He trailed off suggestively.
"I don't have a swim suit,"
He raised his eyebrow, "At all?"
"Yep," I said popping the 'P' and swaying side to side.
He chuckled, "Wow, you are a lost cause,"
I narrowed my eyes at him, "Hey, watch it. After all if I don't go, you," I poked his chest, "Don't go either!"
He sighed and leaned back against the wall. "Are you wearing underwear?" He whispered.
My mouth dropped open and I gaped like a fish. "W...what?"
"I said, are you wearing underwear," He repeated a little louder, luckily no one was walking past to hear.
"Yes!" I hissed and felt my face flush. Is there no limit to how much embarrassment I can take in one day?
He grinned wickedly, "Oh, you think I'm coming on to you?" He bent over and laughed.
Glad I amuse him...
He stood tall and composed himself. "No offence sweetheart but your not my type. I only asked so I could suggest you swim in them, I mean c'mon" He pointed his finger at me and back to himself and laughed again.
I'm not going to lie, that did sting. But who the hell does he think he is? He might be good looking but his personality makes him ugly!
I laughed snidely in return, "Don't flatter yourself, like I'd lower my standards for you!"
He looked taken aback at first and then straightened his shoulders and met my gaze. "Great, because I'd never ever, go out with someone like you!"
I glared, "Someone like me? What, someone who actually has a brain and the common sense to see why your really not all that?" I challenged.
He leaned down so we were face to face, "I go for real women," He trailed his eyes over my body. "I don't go for little girls who haven't developed yet,"
I scoffed, "How would you know? Just because I actually keep my...bits under my shirt doesn't mean I don't have any,"
I'll admit I don't have the fullest breasts but that's not to say I don't have any at all!
He smirked, "Oh yeah? Well prove it then!" He crossed his arms over his chest.
I threw him a disgusted look, "I'm not taking my top off for you!"
He laughed yet again, "There you go again, assuming I want you. No doll, meet me at the pool after school, I'll have a costume for you and then we'll see just how developed you claim to be!"
Fuelled with my stubbornness I didn't even think twice and agreed, "Fine!"
He smirked and turned to walk away, "See you then," Just before he turned the corner, he stopped and turned his head. "If it's not too much to ask, could you please keep this quiet. Unless you want everyone to know your taking swimming lessons?"
I rolled my eyes, "Like I want anyone to know you of all people are teaching me!"
He turned away and the reality of what just happened sunk in. Oh God, I groaned and buried my head in my hands.
