(Me: Foreshadowing, go away!
Foreshadowing: It wasn't me!
Me: Who was it then?
Sarcasm: slowly backs away)

Grayson blushed a bit. Being a smooth guy and not getting that flustered. “Hi Moxiey.” He grinned, spinning her around in the water.

"Eep!" she gasped when he spun her around. Her grip was slipping, so she had to grab onto something, and she ended up latching her arms around his neck. "Hi, Grayson."

Grayson then promptly fell over and took Moxiey down with him into the water. He put his hand over her mouth, a worried look on his face.

Moxiey was confused. She flicked her tail and brought them to the surface again. His hand was still cupping her mouth. She gave him a skeptical look.

Grayson pushed her under again and swam them over to behind the rock. He glanced up over it. "People, my brother and his friends maybe. They know I come here." He whispered.

Moxiey felt her heart spike with terror. She clung to Grayson fearfully. "Are… Are they nice too?" she asked quietly.

"I wouldn't risk it. I should probably go. Stay away, go home or something. I don't want them to find you." He gave her a quick sympathetic look before slowly making his way around the rock.

Moxiey painfully watched him go. Not heeding his warning, however, she stayed hidden behind the rock and listened.

Grayson swam out from the rock, pretending to do laps. He heard his brother calling his name and swam to the shore. "Hey. What do you want?" Alto(his brother) grinned. "I knew i'd find you here. You can't just skip school dude." Grayson glanced back into the water. "I can do what I want."

Moxiey peeked out and saw the boy who must be Grayson's brother. Her heart hammered.

Alto frowned at Grayson. “What’re you looking at?”

Moxiey ducked back behind the rock, a quick flash of her hair was the only visible thing that either boy would've seen.

“Nothing. Just leave me alone will you?” Alto crossed his arms. “I’ll let it go this time but I’m supposed to be looking after you okay?” Grayson looked down at the ground. “Yeah, okay..”

Moxiey, unable to harness her curiosity, peeked out again, an inch or two further than last time.

Alto frowned and looked around Grayson. "Is there someone…"

Moxiey peered out slightly more, then saw Alto look in her direction and reeled backward, away from sight, hopefully in time.

Alto looked back at Grayson. "Oh, never mind. Well, have fun I guess. Remember, this is the only time." Grayson nodded and Alto walked away.

Moxiey watched him walk away, but she waited for Grayson to come back to her, just to be sure she was safe.

Grayson stood there until he was sure Alto was gone then he walked back to Moxiey. "He almost saw you."

Moxiey felt her face get hot and she didn't meet his gaze. "I'm sorry," she whispered.

"It's fine, just..be more careful next time."

Moxiey felt ashamed. "Do you have to leave now?"

"I-I probably should..sorry." He said, regretfully.

Moxiey's shoulder's noticeably dropped. "Tomorrow?" she asked, her throat closing around the word.

"Maybe. Hey don't be sad, it's okay. It's fine." He hugged her softly.
