Chapter 9: Chapter 9
christy's
I sat on a long chair in front of the pool.watching as other students changed into their swimsuits and diving happily into the pool...the coach blew the whistle signaling for everyone to gather together for a brief announcement..
After the announcement everyone got back to what they were doing...incase you're wondering¿¿¿ the pool was divided and girls were restricted from getting into the guys pool and vice versa...so bad luck for solo- bitch a.k.a Helen....
Speaking of helen, I watched her swoon over chris like her world revolved around him....oh please she was just trying to show off her figure in her swimsuit to chris and of course some of the ss3 guys were already flattering her...
"C'mon christy this water is way too cool" bubbie screamed splashing water all around her in the pool...shola was in the tennis club cause she couldn't swim yet all three of us made out time to go cheer the guys who were going to play ball in the next one hour..
"Bubbie i feel cold " I said in pretence
"The water is neat if that's what you're unsure of " she replied peering her gaze at me
" I know but I may catch pneumonia if i get into that water now" I said then sneezing out in pretence as bubbie eyed me before quoting our history teacher's favorite line
"Who are you deceiving?? You are not doing me you're doing ya self " she said and we burst out laughing
" yeah whatever " I said then suddenly my gaze wandered over to where Chris was...and dude Helen was still there kind of entertaining the guys infact she was swaying her hips so often while saying something that made the guys laugh like maniacs
I didn't know Helen could be that funny how did she even do the magic of being comfortable in her swimsuits only in the midst of guys...? I felt kind of annoyed.
Coming to the pool was a bad idea. I was just curious about helen talking to chris but I guess it really isn't her fault..I was always pushing him away from me
" hey helen !" A tall handsome guy called. She swirled her hair to face him when he said "nice swimsuit "he complimented with a wink.And Helen grinned
"Thank you Joshua" she said
No doubt he may have complimented her swimsuits but everyone around knew he was talking about her shape even Helen
She was hourglass shaped and beautiful. And looking at her in swimsuits made me feel insecure...I was still on my sports wear. I couldn't pull off my clothes to get into the water in the midst of girls so how would that ever be possible to do in the midst of man whores who call themselves guys???
Helen was still blabbing something to an uninterested Chris who had a bored expression unlike the rest of other idiots of melviks high fanning over Helen and laughing if not fake- laughing
"Everyone time up you can go over to other sports you wish "the coach instructed "and helen can you please let the guys appear decent once again while you do the same" he said
"Sir nooo it's fine we are okay with this" the man whores of melviks high spoke up intending to show off their 'talents'
"C'mon go and get dressed...be thinking like immature lizards" the teacher retorted
Mr.Ben wasn't a bad teacher and students said he was the best coach they had in the swimmers club so far
If it was aunty Ruth, their former coach. deeper life lady in charge of the swimmers club....if they see a glimpse of a girl in the pool or something who looked like a girl in the pool ' then know it wasn't aunty Ruth who supervised them
I watched chris dab his hair while making steps towards me...
"Hey chris " an overexaggerated girly voice rang out as chris muttered
"Why won't this girls let me be?" He groaned and on an impulse I drag him into the girls locker room swiftly...where the heck did that strength come from???
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
" don't make a sound besides that's what you get for being beau...." I stopped talking immediately realizing what i almost said looking up at chris who still looked at me wide-eyed.
We were standing so close to each other that I could hear our heartbeats and his warm body slightly touching me.his breath was coarse and they came out raspy
"Say something dude and don't just stand there" I said hissing
"You...you can talk" he said grinning happily as I raised my eyebrows at him
"Seriously you dunce I wasn't dumb" I retort
"Naw I thought you were actually numb" he said smirking
"Say something more sensible will ya" I said with a snort
He peered at my face closely as I slowly took my face back
"You have pimples sticking out of your face princess" he said and i gasped
Pimples??? Since when???? I mean they only came out when i was at that time of the month....the
I sighed worriedly...Pimples always freaked me out and if there was any other thing I hated about puberty it was having those tiny devils spring out of nowhere to base in your face....uggh
"Are you okay? " chris asked searching my face for some unreadable expression
"Umm...yeah...I...I'm okay....it's just....the cold" I lied what kind of liar am i anyway???
Chris peered at me kind of in an amused way
"I didn't see you swim" he stated
"Well...I uh got out before you noticed" I said hoping it was a better lie
"And you still have your sports wear on they are totally dry" he stated matter of fact
Busted...try again later
"Well it's none of your business" I retort and he chuckled
"Come here" he said drawing me nearer to him...scratch that....his bare chest as he lay my head to his and dude the guy was so warm
We had been hugging each other for the past 10minutes and me enjoying staying by his side when he spoilt the whole show
"Aren't you warm now or you just like being all touchy " he asked suddenly as i quickly pulled away
"As if" I retort
"Isn't it high time we went out" he asked
" do it now and see swam of busy bees swooning around you" I replied saucy
"What are you even sef? Some kind of celebrity idol"
"At least someone more important than you" he retorts coldly but softens his gaze immediately
Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
" really then you shouldn't be in the girls locker room " I retort
"You are the one who practically dragged me here "
"Yeah and I'm no dimwit I just taught you needed help getting away from the girls"
"That's right you're a dimwit cause i never said I needed help"
Okay this wasn't going too well and i felt tears welling up my eyes
"You are a jerk okay...not because you have helen swooning stupidly around you or you think being the most handsome guy gives you the permission to say things anyhow"Â I say
"So...that's why you drew me in here? Huh I always thought you were pathetic hiding yourself and behaving like all rude doesn't give you the credit you wish yourself okay...."
GET OUT!!!" I yell as he stared at me wide-eyed....making me flare up
I'M A DIMWIT, PATHETIC, LESS IMPORTANT AND THEN RUDE RIGHT???" I asked titling my head to my side while trying to hold back tears
"You know what maybe trying to hang around you was all a bad idea...excuse you" I said brushing past him as I slammed the door shut
This was going to be a looong year
