Chapter 2
Drew and May grabbed their towels from the pool concierge and sat them down on the lawn chairs that sat near the steps of the pool. The boat had an indoor and outdoor pool but Drew wasn't fond of the sun so they went to the indoor one. Thankfully, the windows were open to ensure that a nice outdoor atmosphere was there so the hot air from outside blew in, making the pool refreshingly cool compared to the air. The pool wasn't one of the cheap indoor pools either. It looked like an outdoor one with designs at the bottom and a nice warm tan tile surrounding it to give it a more natural feel. Nobody was swimming in it either since most people were outside, eating or doing some other activity that the cruise offered.
'Wow, this is really nice. No one here, just the two of us.' Drew thought, very content with their current situation. May, being her clueless self didn't even notice. She was too busy thinking of ways to make it up to Drew and how she couldn't wait to swim. May glanced at Drew and soon blushed bright red, noticing for the first time something that shocked her.
'He has abs?! Since when did he have abs?! How is his body so toned?! I never see him work out!' May thought, her mind reeling with the mental picture of Drew's chest. Drew glanced at her and noticed how hard she was blushing.
'Maybe she's uncomfortable with it just being us...' Drew thought, his mood dampered.
"If this is too private then we can go to the other one outside." Drew offered, hoping she'd want to stay here. He really didn't feel like putting on sunscreen.
"Huh? No, this is fine." May looked at him and shook her head, smiling. Her cheeks were still flushed but she somehow managed to stay calm and not freak out about the perfectly toned abs in front of her. Drew raised an eyebrow at her, confused at her blush but soon shrugged it off and dove into the deep end of the pool. May watched his body aline perfectly and slice through the water like a knife through butter.
'His biceps... abs... just everything... is so toned... how?!' May thought and walked into the water through the steps. Drew swam to where May was and popped up, his body glistening with water drops, the soft warm glow of sunlight sparkling off them. May blushed deeply but admired him, watching as he flipped his drenched, now a slightly darker shade of jade green, hair to the side. His emerald orbs fell upon the blushing brunette who was still standing there, staring at him.
"What? Is there something on me?" Drew asked, concerned with her nonstop staring. May blinked and looked away, embarrassed.
"N-no. Sorry." May stuttered and dove into the water to avoid questions. Drew watched her swim, worried but soon shook the thought away and swam after her. They swam, doing laps, Drew keeping a steady, relaxed pace to stay at May's side. May noticed how smoothly and how relaxed Drew was when he swam and envied how it came so easily to him. Compared to Drew, May looked like a retarded magikarp. They went to the shallow and stopped. Drew floated on his back, his eyes closed while May kneeled, watching him.
'He really is relaxed. So this is how to relax him... water? Or is it swimming?' May thought. She never thought she would see such a peaceful face on Drew and now that she has, she wished that he wouldn't be so stressed all the time.
'He looks so angelic.' May thought and smiled, happy to have the pleasure of seeing Drew like this. The sight made her heart flutter happily, which May noticed but decided to ignore for now.
About an hour later, Drew suggested for them to leave, not particularly wanting to but knowing that they couldn't stay there forever. They dried off and exited the pool area, only to be greeted with a few loud thuds, panicked voices and cold air.
"What was that?" May asked Drew, worried that something bad was happening. They could hear whispering that sounded like... kids. It came from around the corner. Drew whispered to May before silently walking over towards where the voices were coming from. May continued to talk like she was talking to Drew casually and Drew soon grabbed two kids that were hiding.
"Hey!" The boy, around 14 exclaimed. May's eyes widened.
"You two!" She said, shocked. Drew noticed what May was and groaned.
"I hate kids." Drew muttered.
