Novel & Cerita The Night Swim

“My references are weak, but my cannonball’s strong.” “That’s not nothing,” Lena allowed. “Night swim?” Jace asked. “Pool bar’s open,” Rafe said. “Lights under the water. Bad decisions encouraged.” Lena glanced at Jace. His slight nod said, 'Your call.' She grinned. “Let’s go.” The water glowed like a galaxy. Blue light shimmered under the surface, turning bodies into moving shadows. The four of them claimed a corner near the steps, elbows hooked on warm stone, drinks within reach.

Night in, night out, this was the nightmare I repeatedly had. After struggling to go back to sleep, I forced myself out of bed made my way out of the quarters, and walked to the lake. It was in the middle of the night, so I didn't expect anyone to be awake by this time to want to take a swim. I wanted to spend the remaining few hours I had left before I had to report to the kitchen for duty, thinking and washing away the stress and bad memories that were making my limbs sore. I stripped off my clothes and stepped into the cold water, shivering at first before welcoming the cold as it began to calm me. I had been swimming and floating for about an hour when I felt someone watching from the sh

His eyes gleamed with excitement. "Hey, folks! Mind if I crash the bonfire party?" Lucas said. "Not at all, Lucas! What's on your mind?" Cadel replied, welcoming him into our conversation. His gaze drifted to the dark expanse beyond the fire's glow. "How about we go for a late night run? Or a midnight swim, perhaps?" Nicole's eyes lit up. "A swim sounds amazing! I'm in." Cadel leaned forward. "Yeah, let's go swimming."

My demonic phone must think it’s at an audition with this enthusiastic performance it’s giving…Oh God, why won’t it shut up! If I can get my sadistic phone and put it on silent, maybe I can get in another thirty minutes of sleep, I contemplated. Deciding to do just that I began to feel around for it…space, space, space, silky sheet, is that a feet?!! My eyes snap shot open, and immediately closed back;uhh, my head hurts… wait, did I just see a feet, curious I slowly peeped through an eye. Why am I staring at a feet?, those can’t be mine right?, I was never good at gymnastics and there’s no way my feet could be that close to my face, not to talk of how big they look right now.

Claire exclaimed. "Claire please don't do anything stupid." "I won't do anything stupid. I'm going to do something he would never expect. I am going to go for a swim." "Your pool isn't heated. The water is cold. You'll get sick." I reasoned out. "Raquel, James and I used to swim in that pool naked in the middle of the night. My body is acclimated to night swimming." "You can't be serious." I followed her to the pool.

I asked, softly dabbing my face with the powder foam. Synn's voice bubbled with excitement, "The Outing Night is a party that's held to acknowledge all the performers at Wet Nights, the party is usually held every last Friday of the year, and they throw it in one of Bishop's private hotel. No rules, just pure fun." I suddenly paused and turned around to look at Synn, "Wait, what? You mean Bishop will be at the party tonight?" I asked with a conflicted emotions. "Of course, yes." Synn giggled.

Adam: Welcome to my home, Samantha. I hope you like it here. Samantha: Wow, Adam. Your home is amazing. It's so beautiful and luxurious. Adam: Thank you, Samantha. I worked hard to make it this way. I'm glad you like it. Samantha: I can't believe you have a pool in your backyard. It's like something out of a movie. Adam: Yes, it's a great place to relax and unwind. Do you like swimming?

Lucas smiles, he waves his hand in front of her hoping for her to come out of trance she is. " Emily, are you alright?", He asks. Emily blinks rapidly, she clears her throat before speaking. " Me? Yes, yes, I am alright", she laughs nervously as redness creeps on her neck and ears. Emily scrambles up and increases her pace as she runs towards the river. She almost faints from embarrassment, Emily clutches her dirty clothes and swims in the river. She swims some laps before coming out. " How do we keep water?", Emily asks when she comes out of the water.

Noah I tried to run away. But couldn't, as I recalled this forest. My nightmare. Flashing into reality. The dense weeping willows. Olivia and Liam ambled behind me pursuing the trail I was following. Crooning the same melody. Now the flags of trees motioned to its rhythm. A dark figure in distance lurked at the rear of the trunk. It held on to a camcorder, the lens looking onto the unfilled space encircled by the green and brown giants. The silhouette was too far flung to be clearly seen. But I knew it had a recorder. Almost like a Déjà vu. I’ve experienced it before. Not in a dream or hallucination. In reality. The stage was set. I hurriedly tramped through the two steps into the center, to

his bodyguard answered directly. "Alright, go to the dining area first. I'll just follow. Please tell Diana that I had sent an email for her last night. She hasn't replied yet," Jacob ordered calmly. He accidentally took a glance to the opposite room when he saw the back of a boy wearing a black speedo. Jacob didn't know why he felt better when he caught a glimpse of the kid. His bodyguard had already left without him realizing it. When he turned around to get his V-neck t-shirt, Freya came out of the opposite room. "Son, don't go away from mommy. I know you know how to swim, but still be careful. Do you have your goggles?" Freya asked.
