Covington Prep

The lake and half of hearts

Josh's POV

Cal walked over to me and I smiled. "What's up?" I asked. "Nothing much. Jack and I were going to get

a group of people to go swimming. You in?" I nodded immediantly. "Okay, we're going to go to the lake

at 10:30." She turned away, leaving me staring after her. Gosh, she's perfect, I thought. I started towards

my cabin to get my swimsuit and change. I pulled my plain blue ones on quickly and started towards

the lake. When I got there, our group was pretty much there except for Cal and Meg. I heard a noise

behind me and they walked up. They smiled at me and I grinned. "Lets hope the water's not freezing." 

Cal's POV

I hurried to my cabin and told my friends that we were going to the lake. We all started to change and I

grabbed one of my new bikinis and pulled it on. It was a pale blue daisy printed halter top with black

bottoms. I loved it, it was one of the new ones from Urban Outfitters. I grabbed a big plain gray shirt and

pulled it over. I put on my sunglasses and rainbows and told my friends to go on without me. Meg was

going slow so I waited for her. We started to walk to the lake together after I checked my phone. When

we got down there, the group was already there and Josh had just gotten there. We talked for a minute

and he took off his shirt. My mouth almost fell open, so I looked away. Dang. He had a full on 8 pack,

not a 6 pack, an 8 pack and he was incredibly strong. He didn't look too big though. He was built but he

was also lean, which made him look, if it was possible, even more attractive. I looked at him again and

swallowed, hard. Since my friends were already in the water, he ran and jumped in. Here goes, I

thought. I pulled off my shirt and kicked off my shoes. I walked on the dock and stood there. "Is it cold?" I

asked them. It took a minute for them to respond and I looked up from the dock. Jack and Josh were

both staring at me. I turned around to see if there was someone behind me but there was no one. "Um...

guys?" Jack was the first to recover. He cleared his throat, "Uh... um, nope, its not cold." Okaaayyy, why

were they acting so weird? I gave them a weird look and jumped in. 

Jack's POV

I watched grumpily as Josh and Cal talked. Then, he pulled off his shirt. I saw Cal do something I had

never seen before: she turned away and blushed. Man, she so liked him. He jumped in and she stood

there for a minute. She took a deep breath for some reason and took off her shirt and I almost choked

on the lake water. I know I shouldn't look at her like she was a piece of meat but she had the best body I

had ever seen. She was skinny, but because she was strong. Her arms were toned and her legs were

lean and strong. She had a better six pack then some of the guys I know, but it didn't look gross like she

was a man. It was clear but it looked good on her. She didn't try to look like a slut in her bathing

suit, it wasn't revealing but it was still flattering. Holy crap. I looked over at Josh and he was staring too.  

She asked us a question and I tried to speak but my voice wouldn't work. I cleared my voice and tried

again. She jumped in and I took a shaky breath. This was going to be hard. 

It had been a couple hours and we decided to get out and go to a late lunch. We all got out and started

to dry off. We walked to the pavilion, sat down and ate sandwiches. One of the chaparones stood up on

a table and called for our attention. "Hey guys, refrain from eating for a sec. Thanks. Okay, so you guys

knew that we were going to have a dance in the middle of the week right? Okay good. Well, this dance

is going to be special. You are each going to be given half of a heart on a necklace. You have to find

your other half and dance with them at least 2 times that night. Make sure you wear something semi-

formal and you probably won't be with the person you want to be with okay? This is a chance to meet

new people. A junior, however, will not be with a senior. We are seperating yall by grade. Okay? Okay,

go back to eating." She hopped of the table and walked off. We all looked at each other and didn't say a

word.
