—————————————

I jump up in fear from my state only to meet those beautiful eyes right in front of mine, a bit too close. I search my mind for what to say that would sound reasonable,

"What are you doing right in front of my face?" I furrow my brows,

"Nothing" he blushes and looks away in haste,

"Do you need something?" I raise my eyebrows,

"Yes, company" he sits beside me on the bench and sighs, I noticed his physical state, he looked exhausted and deprived of sleep.

"Are you okay? You look pretty dull and tired" I'm rather concerned about him,

"Yeah, I didn't get much sleep last night" he shrugs, "I'll make up for it tonight" he yawns,

"What's causing you sleepless nights?" I ask him trying to meet his shifting eyes,

"Nothing" he took rather long to answer and his tone sounded rather depressed. I don't argue with him and I offer my shoulder as a pillow. He was exhausted and needed sleep, besides I was free till closing.

He sleeps for an hour and gets to his last test, he thanks me and I wave it off. I walk into an empty classroom and enjoy the silence and solitude it possessed.

I grab my phone and hit up Amazon; it's time to go bathing suit shopping. I didn't see much, too many bright colors, I was looking for something that reflected my personality. And trust me I'm not a fan of bright colors, doesn't look good on me. I was about to give up.

Until I found this amazing one-piece swimsuit with lace-up straps, in the color black! The fabric's great and it's extremely sexy too! And it was 50% off, bulls-eye!!!

I click the add to cart button and go shopping for other accessories, some towels, creams, sunglasses and others. I check the shipping time and it would be delivered this evening, I couldn't believe it. It was like the heavens were with me.

I drop my phone and decide to take a nap and few minutes into my sleep I feel something wet my hair,

"The hell?!?!!" I jump up and see Lilac pouring her ice tea all over me, "are you blind?! Do I look like a trash can to you?!" I was really mad as I tried to save my precious hair,

"That's exactly what you are Eris! Trash!" She screams at me, "and I don't understand why anyone would ever like trash or choose trash over a treasure!"

I take in a deep breath because shit I was about to assault this girl, "what are you trying to say Lilac?" I was trying to calm myself down so no one ends up in the hospital.

"I don't know what you're doing but you better stop it, Daylon is mine! You get that Eris!" She shoves me and I fall back to my seat, I should've known it was this,

"Lilac, look, I couldn't give a damn about what you're saying right now, Daylon and I are good friends. He helped me get through some tough shit and—"

"I knew you'd try to justify yourself but I'm not taking it. I've known Daylon for 4 years and you've only known him for 4 weeks, so stop trying!" She slams her hands on the desk and my eyes widen at the sudden fact, "don't get too close Eris, I can be very nasty" she whispers into my ears like a lunatic, laughing maliciously.

She turns to leave, "and I'd like to see the shit you really are" I respond, she stops for a hot second then walks out of the class.

I slump in my chair, what the hell was that all about? I grab my phone and head to the washroom, I needed to clean up the bullshit she just dumped on me.

If she's nasty, then I'm the devil. And I don't take fucks.

It's Saturday morning and Daylon is getting ready for the pool party, he texts Bryan to meet him at blue avenue so they could pick Debbie up and then head over to my place so we could all go together.

My phone wakes me up and I grab it,

Daylon: we're coming over, directions?

I groan loudly, I completely forgot.

Me: I'll meet you guys there instead

And then I jump out of bed to get ready. I rush downstairs after 20 minutes with all my stuff in a little beach bag and enter the kitchen to kiss my aunt good morning,

"Morning Eris, where are you off to?" She pops some bread into the toaster,

"To a party, I'll be back late" I gulp down a glass of juice,

"Well okay, don't you want to eat first?" She asks with concern,

"No I'm fine, besides there will be food there so I can eat as much as I want" I look at the time, "bye aunt!" I kiss her again and rush out the door.

Lilac's house happens to be the biggest in town and it's also reputable for hosting the most spectacular parties by her parents, and I guess what Lilac is doing is no different.

"We have arrived!!" Daylon announces himself with blue swim trunks on and dives straight into the pool resulting in a big splash,

"Daylon!" Lilac swims over to him as he resurfaces and gives him a big hug,

"Happy to see me?" He gives her his best smile,

"Hell yeah! Race you!" She dives back into the water with the luxurious purple swimsuit that exposed her curves and Daylon follows after her.

"Come on Debbie, you can't stay in there forever!" Bryan was at the verge of poking his head in the changing room Debbie was in,

"I'm shy" she whimpers,

"You don't have to be. I'll close my eyes" he closes his eyes and waits for his girlfriend to show him how good she looked.

Debbie exits the Changing room in a sexy green bathing suit, "well?" She rubs her arms shyly, Bryan opens his eyes and becomes blind.

And dumb.

"Wow, damn!" He exclaims with his cheeks reddening and this was a major confidence boost for Debbie,

"Do I look good?" She could barely look him in the eye, she was smiling and blushing,

"Good?! Good Is an understatement, I've gotta show you off!!" He drags her to the pool area for a swim and a good time. They were so cute together.

They jump into the pool together laughing and smiling but Debbie couldn't help but wonder where I was. I always had a habit of showing up late to a party. And also making an entrance.

"Here" Lilac gives Daylon a glass cup filled with a drink and takes one for herself,

"Alcoholic?" He peers into the glass and sniffs it,

"Just a little, please!" She begs him tugging on his arm,

"Okay okay! You'll never change!" He says in between laughs and takes a sip out of it, "cool party by the way" he compliments,

"You know how I am, I don't settle for less" they both laugh at her statement, "I'm really glad you're enjoying it" she touches his arm with a gentle smile,

"Don't go all soft on me Lilac!" He jests, "in fact, this calls for an awesome pool picture!" He grabs his phone, collects her glass from her and drops it somewhere safe, and pushes her into the pool.

She lands with a loud splash before she could say a word, she resurfaces and he's laughing at her, "why did you do that?!" She splashes water on him, he laughs and takes multiple pictures of her,

"For this silly!" He checks the photos with a satisfied smirk and shows her, a hand clamps around his leg and he's pulled into the water, he resurfaces and so does Bryan, he punches Bryan in the chest, "are you trying to kill me?"

"No man, take it easy. It's just a joke" he rubs the back of his head sheepishly,

"Joke huh?" With a smirk on Daylon's face, he wages a water war against Bryan.

And he always wins at a water war.
