Ocean
~~
I watched as Ben dove into the water first. He was graceful and elegant as he slipped into the water. He was taking an early lead on the lane next to us as he swam as hard as he could. Faster and faster he went, trying to maintain that lead until he got to Ryan.
And thanks to all of the swimming and water gods that there are, Ben managed to stay in first until it was time for Ryan to take place. The moment that Ben was where he needed to be, Ryan dove into the pool. He looked as graceful as any fish or merman that I had ever seen. Though I had only ever really seen Makai as a merman before. Still, Ryan was doing amazingly well. He kept going in his superfast, and amazingly graceful, movements until he went back to the other side of the pool where Makai was. I had my eyes glued to my boyfriend as he prepared to leap into the water and go for his leg in this heat.
Makai was poised on the platform. His goggles in place, his knees bent and at the ready. He was so sexy at that moment. Just watching him was a turn on and I couldn't take my eyes off of him.
"If only you knew who it was that taught him all that he knows. Has he done with you what he used to do with me?" Trent started to spout off his nonsense. It was enough to enrage me, if I let it that was.
"I don't know nor do I care about whatever it is that he used to do with you, Trent. But he's mine now. He is my mate and not yours. He won't ever want you again. And that just pisses you off, doesn't it? Poor little Trent."
That was all the taunting that I had time for. Makai was almost here, it was almost time for me to take my dive. However, it was almost time for Trent to go as well. Though, I knew for a fact that he wasn't going to win. I wasn't going to let him.
"Fuck you, water boy. I know what I know and you have nothing on me."
I ignored his words and dove into the pool. The water that surrounded me cut off his annoying voice and I didn't have to deal with him anymore. I just needed to do what I did best, and that was swim.
I went as hard and as fast as I could. I didn't let anything at all slow me down or stop me. It was just me and the water and the graceful way that it made me feel. And before I knew it, I was almost done with my heat. The words that Trent was saying were long forgotten and no longer annoying me at all.
Our team came in first place. That was what I expected, but I was still a little worried. You never know what will happen until it actually does. The best part of all was that they displayed individual lap times for everyone to see. And what did I see when those numbers were up on the screen? Just that our entire team beat Trent personally. He was the fastest member on his team but each of us were ahead by at least a little bit. That also pissed Trent off and made him stalk away to his seat until it was time for him to swim again.
Next there were the remaining men's teams that needed to compete for this round. After that, the ladies would take their first round. This was a little bit easier than it was the last time since we got to rest in between heats.
The eight of us still in the spectator seats watched on as our women's team swam their best as well. I could tell they were pissed off about Trent and was resenting his whole school and their swim team. They were swimming the best that they could just so that they could beat Trent's friends.
And they did it too. They beat them and came in first place for this round. If they can do that for the next round and place close enough to the top for the final round of the preliminaries, then they would make it to the finals on Sunday. They were on a roll, just like we were.
"YEAH! GO GIRLS!" We were all shouting happily for them. Excited that our team took an early lead for both divisions.
The second round came up sooner than I expected, but I was still ready for it. We all got into position again and I once again stood next to Trent. I could see the anger and resentment in his eyes that we were all actively keeping him away from Makai. This time though, his words started early on in the heat.
As soon as Ben dove into the water, Trent started his bullshit. He didn't even care that Ryan was there to hear it all.
"You can't be his mate, little water boy. I am. I told him that a long time ago. I claimed him as mine and he has no choice. He will be mine, you will see. He will love me again. I will make sure of that."
"Your love, Sandy, give it up. My boy Kai loves Ocean. You seem like nothing more than forgotten leftovers to him now. Just shut up and leave Makai and Ocean alone. And deal with the fact that we're about to beat you again."
As soon as he was done with those words, Ryan leapt into the air and toward the water. He was swimming at his best once again.
"Ha ha. He was right though. You're nothing more than disgusting leftovers or yesterday's trash to Makai now. He won't change his mind."
I had to listen to Trent's angry fuming after that. It was mostly just him making sounds and trying not to scream at me in front of everyone here. At least he was smart enough to not get himself disqualified before I could kick his ass in the individual heats tomorrow. That was going to be fun.
Another victory for us. That made two in a row and virtually guaranteed us a place in the finals on Sunday. And, what happened when the girls swam their heat with that school right next to them again? That's right, they annihilated those girls and came in first place. I swear the pride that was on the coach's face at that moment was enough to make you want to say 'aww' and laugh at the same time. It was almost over the top.
When the final heat started, Trent was so mad that he couldn't talk. It was the best race of the day. Seriously. I didn't have to listen to his voice at all. He was annoying the hell out of me the first two rounds but this one was like heaven. And it ended in another flawless victory. I was so happy that we had just put that punk in his place. And apparently, he was so pissed that he stormed out in the direction of the locker room.
Our team didn't leave, like Trent's shitty team. Nope, we sat down and waited for the girl's team to finish their round, to support, cheer, and celebrate with them when they won.
And the excitement that we all had when they did come in first place. Three in a row our school dominated the pool. No one could say anything about us being here because we clearly deserved to be here.
Oh, and the way that the coach was celebrating, we all thought that he might be about to have a heart attack. His face was red and he was screaming so loud. We thought that if he kept it up like that, his heart would give out soon enough.
It didn't give out though, thankfully. And after a while, we all headed to the locker rooms. On our way other teams, spectators and officials were congratulating us on our victories. I don't think they expected a perfect sweep from the same school for the men's and women's teams. They were all shocked and excited while also being truly happy for us. They also congratulated our coach quite a bit. I did notice that this made him blush a lot but he couldn't stop smiling.
It was a bit hectic when we made it back to the locker room to get changed. We all just wanted to hurry up and go back to the hotel so that we could eat and rest. It had been a long day and we were all tired already.. However, things never seem to work out quite as well as we would like them to, do they? Something or someone always has to throw a wrench into your plans and just fuck it all up for you.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
