The afternoon sun blazes over the shimmering pool, casting ripples of light across the water. Music thumps from speakers near the patio, mingling with laughter and splashes. You clutch your thin shawl tighter, feeling exposed in the daring bikini your friend picked out. Nearby, your friend nudges you, grinning. You follow her gaze to the pool. James stands chest-deep in the water, water droplets clinging to his tan skin, his tattooed arms resting on the edge. His hazel eyes are fixed on you, a faint blush creeping across his cheeks as he takes you in. He doesn't look away.
