Kristy raced down the stairs, into the basement, and jogged down the hallway into the entertainment room. Nick was squatted in front of the TV, putting the tape in the VCR. He glanced back at her, and grinned. "I like" Nick whistled. Kristy turned around, model-like, and flourished at her outfit. She was wearing her swimsuit top, and jean shorts. "I figured we should go swimming before the movie, take advantage of the beautiful weather" she told him. Nick stood up and sauntered over to her. "You" he began as he got closed "look very nice...I think I'd like to go swimming, especially if you're wearing that" Kristy giggled. "That's a guy for ya" she teased. "Always thinkin' with his ---" Angel pounced into the room excitedly. "Always thinkin' with what?" she asked innocently. "His head" Nick told Angel. "His head. What are you doin'?" "Dad said that you and Kristy were going swimmin', and I wanna come, but mom said I had to ask" she smiled. "Can I?" Nick glanced at Kristy, who nodded back helplessly. "Yeah" he said, hiding his disappointment. His sister clapped her hands, and turned around. "I was swimming this afternoon with Aaron, Leslie and Dad, and I still wanna swim! Weird! I'll meet you outside" Angel called, and backed out of the room. Kristy turned to Nick. "Don't be so enthusiastic" she chided playfully. "I was looking forward to just me and you in the pool. Little privacy, little water, little fun--" "Little privacy in your backyard, little water in your mom and dad's pool, little fun when your parent's are home" Kristy said, trying to make him happier. "Plus, Angel is gonna go to sleep eventually. We can always come back out later, have a little privacy, water, fun, and darkness, which enhances our privacy water and fun. So smile, we'll be alone later." He grinned. "I guess you're right" he admitted. They trotted up the stairs, and out the patio doors. The tranquil water of the pool glinted the sunlight off. Nick grabbed Kristy and threw her over his shoulders. "Ah!" Kristy shrieked. "Nick, put me down!" Nick ran around in circles, and Kristy clutched his back, terrified. He laughed as Kristy shrieked and shouted, slapping his back lightly. "Nick!!" Kristy yelled. Eventually he stopped, and held Kristy up so she was looking down at him. "Fun?" he teased. Kristy scowled. "I'm gonna puke" she mumbled. Nick laughed. "No you're not" he firmly told her. "Cause we're going swiiiimmmmmmmiiiinngg!" Nick shouted cave man style, and raced for the pool, and threw the two of them into the pool. Kristy surfaced in Nick's arms, and looked at him in shock. "You asshole" she sputtered, and spit some water out of her mouth. Nick didn't say anything, he just put his feet down on the ground, and kissed Kristy forcefully. She didn't do anything for a moment, then slowly warmed up, wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him back. Nick's tongue darted into her mouth, and he pulled Kristy's body against his. She trembled slightly as Nick's bare chest pressed against her. "Nick--Nicky" she breathed heavily. He ran his hands through Kristy's drenched hair. "I've been wanting to do that ever since you got here" Nick whispered into her ear, and his hand rested on the small of her back. Kristy just smiled. She peered at him seductively, and slowly traced the lines of his chest, watching Nick's expression closely. The water swirled around them, and Nick cupped Kristy's chin, kissing her earlobes tenderly. The sliding door slid open, and Kristy stepped back, startled. Angel and Leslie came running out of the house, and jumped cannon-ball style into the pool, splashing water all over Nick. Kristy laughed when the two sisters highfived. "We got you so bad Nick" Leslie boasted. Angel giggled. "BJ told us to embarrass you...we were watching you and Kristy---" Leslie clamped her hand over Angel's mouth, and held tight. "What Angel means is we were watching TV. You and Kristy were outside" Leslie smiled weakly. There was a mechanical sound, and Nick's dad stepped out onto the patio. "Kristy" he hollered "Phone". She slipped herself out of the pool, and dripped over to him. "Thanks" she said softly, and held the reciever to her mouth. "Llo?" "Kristy" a much to familiar voice floated back at her through the line. "Kris, is that you?" "BRIAN!!" she squealed gleefully. "Bri, Bri it's me!" He chuckled. "How's it going? What are you and Nick up to?" "We're just foolin' around in the pool with Les and Angel. Are you still in Lex town?" "Yeah, I'm coming back tommorrow. Listen, can you put Nicky boy on the line?" he asked her. "Course, just a sec." She walked over to the pool, and passed Nick the cordless. "It's Brian" she mouthed, and Nick nodded, laughing. "Yeah, I heard you" Nick chuckled, and accepted the phone. "B-Rok, what's up man?" he greeted his longtime friend affectionately. "Not much" Brian admitted. "Just relaxing with my brother right now. Your dad told me Kristy flew up early?" "Yeah, I was gettin' lonely. After like three weeks, I missed her so bad" he told Brian. Nick lowered himself into the plastic patio chair and watched Kristy splashing around in the pool with his sisters. "I dunno, ya know, I just missed her so bad." Brian smiled, knowing just how much Nick liked Kristy. "So I'm guessing the whole no-sex-you've-gotta-be -very-careful-about-what-the-public-see's-hear's -know's-and-there-is-always-consequences thing went over pretty well, huh?" Nick gasped. "Ohmigod" his mind reeled. Truthfully he'd forgotten. Truthfully it had completely left his mind the day after it'd entered. Truthfully, Kristy didn't even know. But if Brian knew the truth, Nick would drown in the "relationship rules and no-no's" speech. "Yeah" Nick lowered his voice and lied through his teeth. "We talked about it a few day's after Donna got mad at us. Kristy's cool with it." 'It's never been an issue' Nick told himself as Brian continued talking. 'It's not like we're jumping into bed every 10 seconds. Plus what Kristy doesn't know won't hurt her. It's okay, it'll never be a problem' he confirmed with himself. But deep down, Nick knew he was wrong.
