Chapter 4: A Splash In The Pool
Vivian sat on her bed, flipping through a fashion magazine, just trying to pass the time. She really dreading going swimming with him, god only knows what he would try to do to her. She pondered.
"Why aren't you ready yet?" Draco asked as his eyes scanned her body, seeing that she was still in her regular clothes, sitting on her bed with her long legs propped up.
"I don't feel like going." She simplified as she turned another page of the teen publication.
"Oh you think so." Draco responded as he walked over to the bed and grabbed the magazine and tossed it over his shoulder. Then he picked Vivian up and slung her weightless body over his shoulder.
"What are you doing?" Vivian panicked. She inhaled quickly, trying to calm her nerves but ended up inhaling a masculine scent that drifted off of Draco.
"I'm going to help you get ready." He stated as he walked closer to her closet.
"No, I can do it myself." She reassured him.
He dropped her inside her closet, scanning over some of her clothes. He had to admit that she did have nice taste when it came to looking exquisite.
"Could you go and let me get ready?" Vivian said breathlessly.
"Remember it has to be attractive." He reminded her with a smirk just before he left the room.
Vivian slipped into a black two-piece with rainbow pockadots scattered everywhere. She tied the sides of the bottoms so they wouldn't slip off totally giving Draco the satisfaction that he desired. She slipped a rather larger black shirt over her swimsuit, stopping barely at mid-thigh. Vivian grabbed a towel and dipped into her black flip-flops.
She exited the room and headed towards the pool. Vivian had spent much of her time with the Malfoy's that she knew most of the house like her own.
"I can't believe that I'm doing this." Vivian breathed silently.
She soon arrived to glass double doors that lead outside, to the massive underground pool. She finally gathered enough courage and opened the doors, stepping into the warm sunlight. Vivian was thankful that she was at least out of the house even if she had to spend the afternoon with her least favorite person in the world.
"It's about time you came." Draco said.
"I didn't take that long." Vivian defended as she claimed a lounge chair, covered underneath the shadow of the house.
"Why are you wearing a shirt?" he questioned, dying to see you exposed body in little material.
"Because I felt like it."
"Well, take it off." He demanded, growing impatient with her little tricks.
"I don't want to."
"Fine, you can just spend the rest of the summer with in me, closely." He smirked.
Vivian immediately struggled to discard the shirt. Once the unwanted material was gone Vivian grabbed a tub of sunscreen, turning her back to Draco.
Draco's eyes ran over her slender form, even from behind she was still beautiful.
He grabbed Vivian, turned her around and slung her over his shoulder again. Draco ran towards the deep pool at full speed.
"MALFOY! NO! DON'T! I STILL NEED TO APPLY SUNSCREEN!" she yelled as he jumped into the pool.
When hitting the water he let her go. A few seconds later Vivian popped out of the water with her hair slicked back, gasping for air.
"I can't believe that you did that." She splashed him with water.
He attacked her back with a huge splash. They continued on with their playful splashing as a fit of giggles broke through the air.
A warm feeling immediately shot through Draco as soon as Vivian's laughter pierced his ears. She was smiling for the first time around him. A smile of his own shown upon his lips.
After swimming for a while, the two teens got out of the pool and grabbed their towels, drying off their soaked bodies.
"That wasn't too bad if I may say so myself." Draco commented as he sat in a chair across from Vivian.
"It was ok, I guess." She judged, drying her hair with the towel.
"I'm looking forward to tonight." He smirked.
"We're just going to dinner." Vivian reminded him.
"That and you're going to be spending the night in my room."
Vivian just rolled her eyes. Not really even bothering to comment back to him. She gathered her belongings and was on her way back inside the house when Draco stopped her. He didn't want her to leave. Draco enjoyed their company together and it was beginning to show, not matter how hard he tried to hide it from her speculating eyes.
"Remember, you need to dress sophisticatedly." He reminded her with a sigh.
"I know. It's just that all of my neat dresses show my tattoos." She confessed, maybe if he knew he wouldn't want to take her to dinner. She knew that Draco wasn't a big fan of tattoos on women and to be seen with one in public, he would never do.
"That's alright. Personally, I like your tattoos." He said with a sly smirk. He had figured what she was planning but he just had to turn the tables. Plus, Draco was being honest.
"So…we're still planned for tonight." Vivian was on the verge of tears.
"Yeah."
"Ok, see you until then." Vivian waved and gave a small smile. Why she smiled at him? Not even she could answer that very question.
