As Jay wanted to help you out then, you tried with all your strength to pull him in too but as you were pretty much struggling, Riki immediately helped you and together you could pull him inside the pool. As he got his head back out of the water, he clenched his jaw: "you guys are so dead."

"We? No no, you are.", you said and chuckled.

Riki took off his shirt and threw it outside the pool. You didn't expect that to happen, so you quickly looked away.

Jay also just laughed: "Seems like y/n is dead already anyways." You felt really hot, knowing your face must had been so red.

Riki looked at you and just chuckled too: "Well, we can still fight you~"

And so Riki made his way to Jay, tried to handle him but Jay was faster, turned him and held Riki's arms behind his back.

"Okay, that move was mean.", you said but slightly bit your lip at the sight of your crush.

Riki just tried to get out of his friends' hands but as he struggled, Jay let loose and so they started to splash one another.

You kinda thought they'd fight by themselves now but Riki quickly splashed you as you least excepted it.

"Yahh!", you shouted, making the both of them laugh.

You shook your head and quickly attacked back.

The completely drenched clothes made it hard to move but neither of you cared, you had too much fun.

It went on for a while until all of you were haunted by the good smelling food that was standing on the table outside. So, you all left the pool.

But since you guys were drenched in water, you couldn't just go into the house like that, so Jay called for someone. So that staff got towels and new clothes for you guys.

Since you couldn't really get undressed in front of each other or at least you couldn't, so you quickly made your way to the gardening shed and got dried and changed your clothes.

As you guys were eating, you talked about what to do during the holidays, so you suggested Jay to give you a tour around Seattle to which he agreed on.

"We should totally go shopping too.", Jay added and Riki agreed too: "That too but most importantly, we should just stay here and relax. I'm sure here's a hell lot to do too, right?"

Jay nodded: "You guessed it. So many games and possibilities~ like tonight we could use the fireplace and eat marshmallows."

"I'd love that.", you added and smiled at the two of them sitting opposite of you.

You could hear the doorbell but Jay stayed seated, knowing a staff usually opens the door. "Expecting anyone?", you asked and he shook his head. "No and I haven't really told anyone I was coming, soo..."

A female staff was coming and informed him: "The young Belle Cooper wants to meet you, may I let her in?"

Jay immediately started smiling, you and Riki gave each other a look and then looked at your friend.

You quickly asked: "Wait, THE Belle Cooper?? As in your first love and girlfriend, Belle Cooper??"

He just smirked and got up, shyly scrunching his nose and looking at you again: "Yeah, her...~", then he talked to the staff: "I'll open for her, no worries."

He quickly made his way to the door, leaving Riki and you alone. You both slightly chuckled and Riki said: "Oh they're so getting back together."

"Of course they will! The way Jay talks about her, she can only be an angel. And after this stupid crush on -you know- this is just perfect for him."

He nodded and wanted to say something but then Jay was coming back with the said person and introduced you to each other: "Guys, this is Belle. Belle, these are Riki and y/n." He smiled from ear to ear, making you guys in awe.

"Hey Belle, nice to meet you.", you smiled at her and she smiled back. "Nice to meet you too!"
