An hour later and Sophia had managed to keep her posture while diving from the edge. And she felt damn good about it. The last seven dives she had done on her own, Tobias sitting on the edge and judging.

"I'm exhausted." Sophia complained, sitting on the edge. Tobias smirked. "Shut up."

"I didn't say anything."

"You were going to."

"What was I going to say then?"

"Something worthy of Tobias Jackson, no doubt." She sighed.

"Yeah, yeah, OK." They sat in silence for a few minutes, their feet dangling in the water. Tobias started kicking the water, causing miniature tidal waves.

"You're such a child."

"Thanks." Sophia kicked up a wave too before suggesting something to do.

"Want to play twenty questions?"

"Why?"

"Why not?"

"Twenty questions about what?"

"About us. It's a game a teacher told me to use when I wanted to make new friends in high school."

"Oh, OK. You go first."

"What's your favourite colour?"

"Blue. Yours?"

"Sunshine yellow."

"How loud can you scream?"

"What-?" Tobias shoved her into the pool. She did scream a bit, but managed to hold her breath.

When she surfaced, Tobias was in peals of laughter. She jumped up and grabbed him by the wrists, dragging him into the pool.

Tobias pushed her towards the bottom of twelve foot six, holding her in a tight hug. Sophia kicked and fought as best she could, but he was so much stronger.

Sophia looked at him. Tobias stared back, his smile faltering. They held each other's gaze while he remained to hold her in his arms, their faces mere inches away from each other.

The lack of oxygen bought her to her senses. Sophia blinked and looked up. Tobias seemed to understand, kicking off the bottom of the pool and taking her up.

Three minutes later, Sophia locked a cubicle door behind her, dumping her clothes on the bench, sitting down next to them.

What had happened there?
