"The water called me...
but I was held back"

I watched as Zayne stood up.
Curiosity made me take in his every movement. How he effortlessly shrugged off his blazers in a fluid but disturbingly sexy way, how he ran his hands through his curly dark hair or how his movement made the light and colour in his eyes shift.
Gold-grey-gold-grey..
I watched as he left the class. Zayne wasn't the type to move all around. One week of sitting with him made me notice that. So wherever he was going was pretty important.
Some stupid idea clocked in my head.
Why not follow him?
I was bored, Empress was busy with Coach Rogers while Justice was sleeping.
I stood up to walk out when a figure blocked my path.
Efua.
I looked at her with boredom on my face. If she thought I was going to stoop low to her level to pick a fight then she was messing with the wrong babe.
"What is it?" I asked dryly.
"So you think you have succeeded abi? You stole Nathaniel now you have stolen Zayne, what is your problem you this bitch?!" She yelled. The whole class became quiet, ready for the drama that would burst soon.
"Is that all?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. Her frowning face morphed into confusion.
"What?" She spat.
"I asked are you done? Or should I break it into smaller words so your dumb brain can take it in?"
"Ah!"
"Eweyy! Did you feel that insult?"
"I lovee this dramatic set of Ss3!"
"Are you insulting me?! Rihanna!!" She shouted angrily.
I smiled.
"Are you angry I and Zayne are dating? Is it eating up your jealous and envious heart?" I asked softly, tilting my head to the side.
"Damn...!"
"I thought it was Nathaniel you wanted? Well have him if you want, but Zayne and I...are a couple" I whispered in her ear. She was vibrating with anger, but knowing Efua, she won't do anything.
"You'll pay for this Rihanna. I'll make sure you do!" She shouted and stormed off. I dusted my blazer and walked out of the class.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
I walked to the swimming arena as it is called by students in our school. Since I stopped swimming two years ago, I really haven't gone there.
But here I was, walking to the first place I was attracted to when I came to SLC.
I could scent Zayne's fragrance. Believe me when I say that guy has this delicious and wonderful fragrance he has around himself. I tiptoed and peeped from where I was.
He was there.
Standing in front of the pool with his hands in his pockets. Slowly he removed expensive sneakers.
What?
Common sense told me to run, but curiosity held my feet to the ground. I watched as he removed his socks, then he unbuttoned his shirt. There was this alien feeling in me that wanted to see him shirtless.
He put off his shirt, with his singlet in view. I bit my lip and watched as his fingers held the hem of his singlet and raise it over his head. The moment he did that, my jaw dropped down at the sight.
Rema's Charm came to my mind that instant.
See body ooo!!
Dude was flawless, when I mean flawless I mean F-L-A-W-L-E-S-S! His back looked inviting as it was in a V shape form down to his waist. Baba was ripped to the core with six mighty abs staring at me. My legs started shaking.
Let's not even talk of the chest.
I managed to steady myself and continue watching him as he unbuckled his belt. I knew I was breaching his privacy but I couldn't help it. Any girl in my shoe will practically scream if they saw what I was seeing right now.
By the time he removed his trousers, he was wearing a short much to my relief. He removed his wrist watch and dropped them by the edge of the pool before diving into the pool like a professional.
The way he dived and swam leisurely in the water made me want to take my clothes off and dive in too. But I just stood there and watched tormenting myself with the the imagination.
It's time to leave Riri.
I stood up straight and was about turning when my leg hit the equipments, making a loud noise.
Jesus!
I opted to run. Unfortunately, the small room was filled with various types of equipments and materials. Before I could even cross to the door, I fell down flat.
"You know spying on someone is rude right?" Zayne's cello like voice said. Even on the cold floor, my face heated up with embarrassment.
"I'm sorry. Help me?" I murmured from the ground. He scoffed under his breath and in one movement, helped me up to my feet. Soon enough I was face to face with a dripping Zayne. He wasn't smiling but he wasn't laughing either.
"I'm sorry" I murmured, looking away.
"If you wanted to swim why didn't you just come?" He asked softly. I bit my lower lip and tried not to let my eyes go down further from his face.
"I..I just wanted to see...to check up on you..I'm not really a swimming fan anymore" I lied.
"Liar" he replied calmly. My heart was beating real fast and being in a small room in a hot boy added to the tension.
"Why don't you swim anymore Rihanna?" He asked
"I have a phobia for water" I lied and shrugged. It was the lie I told the school two years ago when I quit the swim team. I couldn't bear to tell them the real reason.
"Don't lie to me" he said softly and came closer. I swallowed the lump of saliva in my throat and stared into his eyes.
I got lost.
"Why are you no longer swimming Riri?" He whispered. He came so close that if I were to move one or two inches, I would be plastering myself all over him. My mind was not helping matters as well, as my eyes started dropping to his lips and sending wild imaginations to my brain.
"I...I told you. I have a phobia for water" I stammered. He tilted his head and raised a golden brown skinned hand and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. His fingers brushed my skin, sending loads of electric currents up my spine.
What is this?
He leaned in and I could feel his hot breath on my neck. My skin was filled with goosebumps on my body now and my heat beat was going too fast to be called normal.
"Why. Did. You. Quit. Swimming?" He whispered slowly in my ears. I gulped and unconsciously flattened my palms on his bare wet chest. His eyes saw that movement but he said nothing.
"Please..." I whispered and closed my eyes as I remembered why.
"Daddy please!!" She cried. The tall, dark skinned man glanced at his sixteen year old daughter who was on her knees crying.
"Rihanna leave me alone oo. I've told you, no swimming again! Your academics will not be replaced with some childish sport!" He barked angrily at her.
"Daddy please! It was because I missed second tests that time I was ill. I tried to take first but I became second instead!" She cried, holding into her father's leg.
"Let go of me you terrible child!! From now on NO SWIMMING!!"
"But daddy-"
She didn't get to finish before he used his leg to kick away. She curled herself into a small ball and cried until her head started aching. She saw her mum and ran to her, hoping for comfort.
"Mummy! Help me beg daddy!" She cried. The woman gave her a cold look and ignored her like she was nothing.
"Go to your room" she commanded. Rihanna stared at her in shock then in pain. She knew her mum won't help her.
She walked upstairs and fell on the bed crying heavily.
"Riri...!" I heard him yell. He was looking at me worriedly. He was almost hugging me, with his arm around my waist.
"Huh?"
"You zoned out. Come and sit down" he said and led me to the pool. He sat down on the floor and helped me sit as well.
"What happened?" He asked. I stared at him, searching his eyes for any hint that he can't be trusted.
There was none.
"My parents" I whispered.
"Oh. Do you want to talk about it?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No. I don't want to relive it again. Let's talk about something else."
"Like?"
"You"
