Becca hated the outdoors. But she loved being tan, and swimming. And in order to do both, you had to be outside. That's why Becca decided to come to the wave pool, it was nice and sunny, but not crowded like the beach. And there were hot lifeguards too, so that was most definitely a plus. She sat down in the shallow end of the pool. She would swim later, but now she wanted to boy watch. It was at least ninety degrees outside, so she was hot. She splashed herself a bit, trying to cool off. Realizing that was close to impossible, she stood up, and walked a little deeper into the water. Maybe, just maybe, she could find someone to talk to.

It was a really hot day. One were it would be shame to stay inside all day and watch endless hours of TV with your two little sisters. So Gray Johnson had decided to take his two little fifth grader sisters to the water Mania. He had on a pair of swim trunks and was shirtless. He had left a message for Ava that said he would be here. So she didnt have to worry. He let the two girls go off and do there own thing. He wanted to get a tan. So he lay on the deck chair he was reading an old magizine he found in Avas house. He looked up a few times and then went back to his reading. Then he put it down. Gray shut his eyes and just enjoyed the heat of the sun. So he may have to talk to people. But he really wanted some peice from his little sisters.

Becca hadn't realized what she had been doing, and had accidentally went out too far. She was a strong swimmer, but not strong enough so swim in nine-to-ten foot deep water. She tried to swim back to where the water was lower, but she couldn't. Glancing up to see if the lifeguards were still up there, she noticed they were gone. She was caught between staying in the shallow end and more than likely drowning or trying to swim back and more than likely drowning. But she didn't think fast enough, she was already headed towards the bottom of the pool. She tried to pull herself back up, but she was too weak. She was running out of air, she couldn't breathe. Finally she just gave up, and hoped that maybe someone had seen her, and would rescue her. She closed her eyes, and waited to die.

It went silent when the lifegaurds went of to there breaks. Gray sat up and propped himself on his shoulders. He looked around and then saw someone who seemed to be in trouble. At first he thought it was Jane or Sophie. Then he was releaved it wasnt. He got up and sighed. He knew he had to do something. He ran to the water and went waist deep and then dove in. Gray swam out far and wrapped his arms around her waist. Then pushed of the bottom and surfaced. Then swam with the waves to the shallow end and brough her to land. Layed her down and he sat down. Panting. That took a lot of effort. He hadnt really been in shape and this proved it. Gray shook her and then a lifegaurd came and thanked him. He nodded and shrugged. When he left, he asked You okay? he whiped his forehead and fixed his wet matted hair.

Becca started coughing up water. After a minute, she choked out "Thanks," to the guy who had saved her. If he hadn't been there, she could very well be dead on the bottom of the pool. Becca pulled her matted blond hair off her neck. In her head she was thinking: This is why I hate the 'great outdoors'. Next time I'll just swim in the bathtub or something, it's big enough. And you better say something nice to this dude. Otherwise you'd be dead. And you should've took those swimming lessons a few years ago and - SHUT UP BRAIN! Often times, she had problems controlling her thoughts. "Oh. By the way, I'm Becca." She said, standing up.

Gray replied Good. No problem. and then he stood up and brushed himself of from the lose peice of grit and whatever else. He looked up at the kid pools and saw his two sisters playing with like a heard of little fifth grader girls and boys. Then looked back at Becca. He said Oh yeah. The names Gray. he smiled and then asked Want a drink or some food? I was going to go over to the foor courtish area. he made his way to his bench chairs. Then pulled out some money from his wallet which was in his bag. He looked back at Becca and sat down.
