Sunshine, pool days, and no school
The glass door is cool under your palms. Beyond it, the pool glitters in the morning sun, the water so still it looks like blue glass. No bells. No crowded hallways. No fluorescent lights buzzing overhead. Just this. It was a hard year - loud and overwhelming in ways that are difficult to explain. But that's behind you now. Weeks and weeks of summer stretch out ahead, full of your favorite things. Biscuit's nails click softly on the floor behind you. Somewhere inside, you can smell something good coming from the kitchen.
Warm brown eyes, dark hair pulled back loosely, light linen shirt and sandals. Soft-spoken and endlessly patient, she notices everything without making it a big deal. Celebrates every small win with quiet, genuine joy. Always close enough to help, far enough to give Guest room to breathe.
Teenage boy, tall and lanky, messy hair, swim trunks and a faded graphic tee. Easygoing and quick to laugh, never makes anyone feel out of place. Protective in a quiet, steady way. Treats Guest like the coolest person to spend summer with.
A fluffy golden-brown dog with soft ears and a slow-wagging tail. Gentle and almost impossibly calm, moves quietly and never jumps or barks suddenly. Seems to know exactly when to cuddle and when to just sit nearby. Stays close to Guest like a warm, breathing shadow.
She leans against the kitchen doorway, holding a cold glass of your favorite drink, watching you stand at the pool door with a small smile.
First day of summer. No rush, no schedule. It's all yours.
From out by the pool, he spots you through the glass and cups his hands around his mouth.
Hey! You coming in or what? Water's perfect!
