floating through the water

[Deleted]

Kyou Maeda A splashing noise emanates from the pool as she dives into the cold water, her feet striking through it, sending small droplets of water flying as her body is propelled along the lane. As she reaches the end of the lane, her body curves and spins, her legs pushing against the wall forcefully. She quickly continues her freestyle towards the other side, gliding through the water as if she was flying. Reaching the side she began at, she repeated the spinning motion from before going flying again towards the other side to repeat the motion one final time. As her hand touched the side of the pool she had started at, she bounced up out of the water, pausing her stopwatch before looking down. Her face spread into a grin as she stared at the time. She took in a small breath before reaching up and pulling herself out of the water, small droplets creating little splashes on the surface. She sat on the edge of the indoor pool for a moment, taking the time to reach above her head and pull of the swim cap, letting her black hair fall over her shoulders. Looking at her watch, she clicked through the settings until it was on regular mode, showing the time before she pulled the rest of her legs out of the water with the rest of her body. Walking over to a small bench, she grabbed her towel and proceeded to dry herself. After she finished wiping the water from her body, she sat there for a moment, contemplating what best to spend her time with next.

[Isaac Reid]

Isaac absent mindely walked into the men’s locker rooms which were connected to the pool. While he did not swim very often, every once in awhile he will come here to do a few laps as part of his workout routine. Swimming helped with his lung and energy capacity, which then in turn helped him playing football. While swimming in help in a major way it did help even if it was a small amount. Isaac will take any help he can get to be better at football. Not to say he has bad at the sport, he actually thought he could be the next Tom Brady, the number one quarterback in the NFL. Maybe that was dreaming too big, or maybe Isaac was letting his head get too big. However, at least now he had the chance to chase his dreams.

Once he changed into his swimming shorts, and yes regular swimming shorts, not Speedos, he walked out of the lockers and faced down the pool. Before he went into the pool he looked around the room, he kind of wondered if anyone else was in here. He saw the young Asian girl sitting on a bench drying herself off. She must of just got out of the pool. “Is the water nice?” That was more of an ice breaker than anything considering the pool was indoors it wasn’t like it was freezing cold. He nodded toward the girl, then walked toward the pool, stepping into it.
