I sat with my feet in the water, watching as Amie practicly melted looking at Denis who was hanging out in the pool with Elijah.
"You have a boyfriend. Chill out." I remind her, playfully nudging her shoulder.
"Right." She nods, walking towards Ethan. I slide into the pool and hang out with Sub who had brought a big doughnut float that he sat on.
Eventually I saw a certain purple haired, glasses wearing boy walk into the pool.
"I'm not doing anymore f*cking homework." Alex groans before pulling his towel down, walking to the edge if the pool, turning on his heel and just falling in backwards, making a huge splash.
"If that isnt me every single day-"
"Who is he and why is he automatically the most relatable one here?" Amie askd.
"Oh, This is my boooeeest friend, Alex." Denis had a very panicked expression after nearly screwing up his word choice.
"Bit touchy, are you there?" Sub comments quietly so only I could hear, pointing under the water at where Denis had his arm wrapped around Alex's waist. Apparently Denis heard and let go. Alex whispered something to Denis to which Denis shrugged and put his arm back around the shorter boy.
Eventually every body got into a water fight, I may or may not have dragged Sub off of his float and I may or may not have initiated said water fight. I hid behind the pool float and watched as Denis protectively wrapped himself around Alex and said,
"Dont touch my prince charming." Narrowing his eyes at Ethan who was trying to splash them. There was this really awkward moment of silence that was broken by Amie saying,
"Either I'm crazy or I heard you call Alex "Your prince charming"" Amie points out.
"No homo though." Elijah speaks up, making me snort.
"No, he just said prince charming because it's a running joke that we've had for a while since I'm british." Alex lies smoothly. Elijah and I exchange looks of  'Wow' with each other before the water fighting commenced again. Sub shoved me into Elijah, making us both fall into the water, our limbs tangled together. When I resurfaced, my arm was linked with Elijah's hand firmly gripping my shoulder.
I smacked his hand off my shoulder and drove forwards at Sub who was still violently laughing.
"You little-" I was cut off by Denis who pulled me back from Sub, laughing as I thrashed around, trying to splash Sub. I dunked my head underwater and grabbed Denis' foot, making his trip and plunge into the water. I made a beeline for the edge if the pool and limbed out to watch all the chaos. Ethan and Amie were having their own little splash fight and Alex was laughing at Denis who was shaking his head like a dog and spitting water out of his mouth and Sub and Elijah splashed each other.
"Chump!" Elijah yelled at me as I watched on.
"Whatever, D*ckwad!"
"Rude." Elijah scoffs, pretending to be offended. Elijah dunked his head underwater and before I could register what was happening I was pulled into the pool by my ankle. An ungodly shriek left my lips as I was dragged under.
I popped above water again, this time with Elijah laughing at me.
"You are the worst!" I exclaim, jumping at him and I ended up clinging to his back as I hit him of the head.
"Ow! Get off of me!" He laughs, whacking my foot.
"No!" I refuse to get down though I stopped hitting him.
"Now you're just being annoying." He sighs.
"Bold of you to assume I didnt know that."
"Oh- Wow." Elijah rolled his eyes. Even though I couldnt see him roll his eyes, I knew that he rolled his eyes. I felt it in my bones.
"Rude," I wrap my arms around his neck, "I shall suffocate you now."
"Um, no thank you." He yanks my arms off then unwraps my legs from around his waist an pushes me into  the water.
"Wow, You two are getting along well. Will we be getting some happy news by the end of this week?" Amie asks sarcasicly.
"Ew! No" I yell, flipping her off.
"Piss off!" Elijah laughs.
"You hear that? They're moving in together, how sweet!" Sub jokes.
"Gross!"
"I hate that with every inch of my being." I cringe.
"So, not many inches?" Elijah's asks me. I whack him in the head.
"I'm an inch shorter than you, Dumba*s."
"Whatever."
"Stop flirting!" Alex exclaims. I turn to him. He was standing next to Denis, shoulders interlapping and with Denis lightly skimming his fingers on Alex's thigh. I roll my eyes and go up to them.
"You're one to talk." I comment quietly.
"Well we're madly in love so it doesn't count."
"Yes it does!"
"No. It does not." Denis objects.
"You are basicly eye f*cking each other when ever you're together." I object.
"That's technically not flirting." Alex points out in a sassy tone.
"'My prince Charming?' I'm pretty sure that's flirting." I argue, a smug smirk adorning my features.
"Pet names do not count as flirting." Denis says before thinking back to what he said.
"Yes they do." Alex turns to him.
"Yes they do." Denis whispers to himself.
"Also the fact that he," I point to the purple haired boy, "is the prince Charming makes me think what you said about being a bottom was true." I smirk mischievously.
"Did you actually do that?" Alex asks, amused.
"It was a joke but then-"
"You realized it was a true statement and you went "jkjkjk" because that's what you do when you panic?" Alex asks.
"I like how you just outed him like that." I comment.
"Thanks, it's what I do best."
"A dirty joke just popped into my head that I am not going to say." Denis purses his lips.
"Yeah, no. Please dont." I shake my head.
Now that I'm here, looking back on that day I'm realized that was the day when everything changed.
