"Damn I really wanted pizza." Ally joked once Skylar had disappeared inside."
"Me too." I groaned laying back in the chair
"So while we're alone, what exactly are your intentions with Sky?" Ally questioned looking over at me seriously
"Uh," I mumbled out nervously "I want to be with her?"
"You don't sound very sure." She countered
"I really like her Ally." I stated looking down at my hands "I know I hurt you but I promise I'm not going to hurt Sky. I don't know how to explain it yet but everything with just feels so... so... I don't even know I just know I want to be with her. It's impossible for me to stay away from her and I even stood up to everyone at school when they found out. I'm not the same person I used to be Ally I swear things are different now."
She nodded seemingly thinking over what I had said "Alright I believe you but if you hurt my best friend I will..."
Just at that moment Skylar returned from inside and instantly sat beside me.
"You two are awfully quiet." She stated looking between the two of us before shrugging "But I'll take it over the bickering."
"I'm going for a swim." Ally stated, completely ignoring Skylar's comment altogether
"I thought you didn't bring a suit." Skylar replied looking up at her
She shrugged pulling her shirt off "We're all girls it doesn't really matter."
I couldn't help but admire her flat stomach and toned legs that were in plain view now that she had discarded her shorts. She turned on her heels before jumping into the pool in only her bra and underwear without another word.
"Why were you checking her out?" Skylar grumbled glaring at me
I probably looked like a lying tomato right now, wait what the fuck is a lying tomato?
"I wasn't." I replied shrugging as I stood up "Shouldn't we join her? It's hot as hell out today."
"Mhm," Skylar hummed crossing her arms "you mean Ally's hot as hell."
"Are you being serious right now Sky?" I grumbled before turning and pulling my shirt off facing away from her
"Yeah, be sure to give Ally a good view of you getting naked." Skylar mumbled just loud enough for me to hear
I glared back at her before pulling off my shorts "I'm not Skylar can you please calm down."
"I'll try." She shrugged before pulling off her shirt
My gaze was instantly captivated by her exposed torso as I spoke "Well thank you for trying."
"My eyes are up here." She joked causing me to meet her gaze as she stood and discarded her shirt onto the deck "At least you checked both of us out."
"Please can we just drop it." I grumbled crossing my arms over my chest
She shrugged, a cocky grin now playing in her lips "Maybe, maybe not."
Before I could say another word she took off and jumped into the pool with a splash. I followed suit and instantly felt a calm rush over me as the cool water worked it's magic. We swam around for about thirty minutes before Edward came out with a large tray of food in his hands.
"Food!" Ally yelled before swimming to the ladder and climbing out
"Mine!" Skylar yelled pushing me playfully before swimming to the edge and pulling herself onto the deck
"Wait for me!" I yelled before swimming over to the ladder and climbing out
"Thank you so much Edward!" Ally grinned as she grabbed one of the plates of food
Once I got closed I realized that he had made Mac and cheese pizza, chicken wings and there was a tub of caramel ice cream on the tray.
"How did you know?" I asked as I grabbed a plate smelling the intoxicating scent of the food "Oh my god, thank you so much Edward."
"Of course girls, this was my favorite in college when I'd get the munchies." Edward stated in his usual formal voice
We all looked at each other before bursting out laughing causing Edward to give us a confused look.
"I'm sorry Edward but I told you that it just sounds funny to hear you make weed references." Skylar laughed
"I can still take this meal back inside for myself." Edward teased
"Please no." Ally stated looking genuinely worried
"I'm kidding girls, I have my own inside. Enjoy yourselves." He smiled before returning inside as he all said thank you once again
There were very few words exchanged as we dug into the delicious meal Edward had made. We had fought over the tub of ice cream once we had finished but Skylar has won in the end and was currently running around the pool eating straight out of the carton.
"Share!" I yelled chasing her with Ally beside me
"Never!" She yelled looking back at us
Since she wasn't looking ahead she failed to notice the ladder and tripped into the pool. When she resurfaced she swam to the ladder and threw the ruined ice cream onto the deck.
I fell to my knees looking at the watery ice cream "How could you."
"I didn't do it on purpose!" She exclaimed as she stood up on the deck
"You're a monster." Ally dramatically called out before pretending to cry
"Jesus you two are dramatic." She laughed
"We are not!" We yelled in unison
"Mhm, okay." Skylar laughed before picking up the tub and walking over to the trash can before throwing it out
Ally walked over to the table and looked at her phone before turning to us "My moms on her way to pick me up."
"Awe but the party is just getting started." Skylar joked as she sat down in one of the chairs
"The sun set like an hour ago." Ally laughed
Skylar shrugged "Most parties start after sunset."
"Speaking of which, I'm throwing a party Friday if you two wanna come." Ally said as she pulled her shorts and shirt back on
"I'm down." Skylar grinned
"Same." I smiled
"Perfect, I'll see you then and thanks for hanging out with me it was fun." Ally smiled nodding over at me
"Yeah thank you for hanging out." I nodded back
"Y'all are weird, I'll see you Friday dude." Skylar chuckled waving as Ally disappeared inside
"Well that went well." I grinned over at Sky
She smirked back "Except for when you checked her out."
"I did not!" I argued back
She shrugged "Whatever you say."
"You're so annoying sometimes." I groaned
"Yeah but I'm hot." She grinned
I looked her up and down admiring her toned body still wet from falling in the pool.
"Can't argue there." I smiled
