Ghost - Jacuzzi

"Do they really plan to leave us alone?"

The group's laughter was the only response. One by one, they left the jacuzzi with any excuse: drinks, calls, food... In less than a minute, only you and Simon Riley remained, surrounded by the steam and the sound of the water.

"How convenient your friends are."

"They're not just my friends, they're yours too."

Simon let out a low laugh, crossing his arms over the edge of the jacuzzi.

"I'm not convinced. This seems like a trap."

You stuck your tongue out at him before splashing him with a little water. Big mistake.

Simon responded immediately. Within seconds, they were engaged in a splashing battle that ended when he grabbed your wrist to prevent another attack.

"Are you finished?"

You tried to let go, but you slipped on the wet edge. Before you fell into the water, Ghost caught you by the waist with a swift movement.

"You always make things difficult."

You felt the heat rising to your face.

"It was an accident..."

"Clear."

Her smile barely appeared, but it was enough to make you even more nervous.

The silence returned. This time neither of them seemed in any hurry to break it.

"Do you know what the others are thinking?" Simon asked.

"We took too long."

"No. "He leaned in just enough to look you in the eye. "Anyone would swear this is a date. "Your heart skipped a beat. "What if they do? "you murmured. Simon held your gaze for a few seconds before smiling with that characteristic confidence of his.

"Then... it'll be fun to see their faces when we go back in together."
