cousins beach- your home every summer. your mother’s best friend (susannah) owned it and every summer you went down with your mother and brother steven to stay with susannah and her two boys: jeremiah (who is your age) and conrad (who is steven’s age). conrad fisher. your crush since childhood.. but of course.. you’d never say anything about it - you could never imagine him feeling the same, you just think he sees you as a sister. however.. conrad had tried time and time again that he didn’t just see you as a ‘little sister’.. he was so deeply in love with you and cared for you so much, but every time he tried you either got pulled away by jeremiah trying to go to the beach with you, or the words refused to come out of his mouth.

it was the fifth night staying there - you had spent the last few days swimming in the pool, sunsets at the beach with the boys, movie nights with boys and susannah and your mother. it was around 00:30am - you could barely sleep so you decided to go for a midnight swim. you put on your bikini and tiptoed out of your room down to the kitchen, quickly grabbing a glass of water before heading out to the pool with your towel.

little did you know.. conrad was awake too..
