The heated, bubbling water in the hot tub was doing little to relieve my stress. I closed my eyes for just a second as I willed myself to relax. When Noah’s pinky latched onto mine, my eyes fluttered open again.

“So just ask her,” Noah said.

We had been talking about Riley. I admitted to him that I knew something was going on with her, I just didn’t know what. She had even cut class this morning. I wasn’t sure if that was in an effort to avoid me, or Dr. Douglas. Or both of us? Maybe. It was probably me that she was avoiding because she hadn’t shown up at lunch, either.

“Emory! Watch this!” Tyler cried from the other side of the pool area.

“I’m watching!” I called back.

He bent his knees and with a huge amount of effort, he sprang upward, pulling his knees to his chest.

“Cannnnnnonballlllllll!” he yelled as he splashed into the water. A few seconds later his head popped out of the deep end. He scrubbed water out of his eyes as he tried to focus on Noah and me. “Did you see that?”

“That was awesome, buddy!” Noah called back. “I think that was the biggest splash I’ve ever seen! You should try to see if you can top it!”

Tyler grinned at the praise before paddling his way over to the edge. I loved being here this time of day. Once again, we had the whole pool area to ourselves. I knew we needed to enjoy it while we could because soon enough school would be out, tourist season would be starting up, and this place would be overflowing with people.

But for now, it was all ours. I was glad that Noah hadn’t hesitated when I’d asked him to join us. Ty had been excited as well. He’d talked Noah’s ear off the whole ride over, questioning him about the upcoming baseball season.

The three of us had hit the pool at first, but Noah and I eventually moved onto the hot tub so we could actually carry on a conversation. Tyler had joined us but had quickly bored of sitting still.

“If she’s having an affair with a professor, I’m not sure that I even want to know,” I admitted. I would feel compelled to do something about it because I would hate for her to get found out. Surely, there were repercussions for that? Especially if you happened to be in that professor’s class, right? I thought so and it worried me. Maybe it was best if I didn’t ask until the semester was over and we were safely in the midst of summer break. “The thing about Riley is that she doesn’t listen to anyone. She just does what she wants to do. So if she admits it, I’ll just stress myself out over it.”

“So don’t ask her,” Noah relented.

I gave him a shove as I laughed. “You’re no help!”

“That’s because you’re kind of being impossible,” he admitted with a smile. “But seriously, just give it time. If I know Riley, she’ll be moving on to someone else soon enough.
