CHAPTER 10: SWIMMING LAPS

Dominic, on the other hand, wasn't fazed at all.

He just shrugged like it was no big deal.

"Come on, we've known each other since 10th grade. Why should it be awkward? It's just a swimsuit."

I stared at him for a second, realizing that he was right.

We've been friends for so long, and honestly, we've shared worse things back then than a swimsuit.

I rolled my eyes and said, "Okay, fine. You win."

It was silly, but I guess I couldn't really argue with him. And besides, I'd probably be in more trouble without it.

Well, well, it's been a whole week, and I still haven't been able to chat with Fiona.

I can't help but wonder-Is she okay? I haven't heard a word from her, and it's starting to worry me.

This morning, I didn't see her at all-no sign of her anywhere. Not even a text, nothing.

It's like she just vanished, and I'm not sure what to think. I really want to see her so badly.

I keep checking my phone, hoping for a message from her, but nothing.

I don't know if something happened or if she just needs some space, but I really hope she's alright.

Maybe I'm just overthinking it, but I can't help feeling a little anxious.

Where could she be? What's going on with her? I just hope everything's okay on her end.

Physical activity time was finally here, and we headed straight to the gym's pool.

When we walked in, we were all immediately mesmerized by how big the pool was-it was way bigger than I expected.

Kiesha and Bryce wasted no time and quickly changed into their swimsuits, but I was in a bit of a panic because, of course, I had forgotten mine.

Just as I was about to worry about what to do, Dominic came over to me, holding out his extra swimsuit with a smile.

I couldn't help but smile back at him and took the swimsuit from his hands. It was a little awkward, but I appreciated the gesture.

I quickly changed, feeling a little self-conscious but mostly relieved.

By the time I was done, our professor was already starting to explain what we were supposed to do for the activity.

It seemed like everything was moving so fast, but at least I was ready now.

"Okay, class I want you all to swimming slaps, how many laps?,
Well 10 laps only to each one of you Dominic here is in charge for counting because I've had urgent meeting on the office, okay ba class?"

We all nodded and said "yes" in unison, and before I knew it, everyone else had already started swimming, splashing around in the massive pool.

I was just about to join them when Kiesha, with that mischievous grin of hers, teased me.

She pointed at the swimsuit I was wearing, laughing a little.

"Wait a minute, is that Dominic's name on your swimsuit?" she said, raising an eyebrow.

I froze for a second, realizing she was right-his name was clearly written on the tag.

I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but I quickly shrugged it off.
