Chapter Ten

I arrived to work the next morning and was greeted with a single red rose sitting on the top of my desk. There was no card attached, but I knew instantly who it was from.

I’m getting so used to him not signing anything. He never seems to be able to admit that he likes to do sweet things.

I’m now sitting here, three days later with the same silly grin over my face as I had that day. I just can't seem to stop smiling and even Matt has noticed. He first thought that I’d won the lottery or something, but the thing is, I truly feel like I have.

Rocco and I haven’t spoken since we kissed, but we have been messaging each other, and every day when he leaves the pool, I’m rewarded with a huge smile from him that truly melts my heart.

Every. Single. Time.

I know how closed off he is, so the fact that he’s still texting me is a massive step forward for him. He isn't shutting me out this time and I know that he’s trying to give me at least some small part of him. I’m happy to get just a little piece of him at a time.

I notice the time on my computer and realise that I’m way behind on my shift already. I think that I’ve just spent the past ten minutes sitting here and daydreaming about him. Giving myself a mental telling off, I complete the start of the shift checks on the computer and then take a last sip of my coffee.

I next make my way over to check out the changing rooms and upstairs areas. The changing rooms look fine and each of the racks are still filled high with towels, obviously no one has needed to use any since they were refilled on the last shift. I make my way through to the spectator’s area so I can reach the back steps that lead to the functions areas above.

My eyes land on Rocco and see that he’s standing by the pool, talking to Josh. I stop for a moment so I can just take him in. Yes, I understand how creepy this must sound, but I can’t help but look at him. I notice that his body is tensed up and his eyes are extremely dark. He doesn’t look happy at all.

I’m just about to walk away and leave them to it, but then I see Josh lifting his hand up and beginning to point right into Rocco's face. I stay where I am and wonder what’s going on.

I’m really not sure what to do. If it’s something to do with the swim team then it’s really none of my business and I should leave them to it, but if it’s the start of something else then I may need to go over and step in. There’s no way I can have them fighting here.

As he continues to speak with Josh, I notice his eyes narrowing with what appears to be pure anger.
