Who: Lucas Scott and Open
When: Day 31
What: Lucas goes for a swim.
Rating: Probably PG just to be safe.
Status: Complete.

Lucas had his hands in his pockets as he walked around the grounds of this strange new place he had ended up. He walked to the lake and looked at the water lapping. He decided it would be nice to go for a swim.

He walked back to his room and got a pair of swimming trunks. He changed into them and grabbed a towel. He walked to the swimming pool and put the towel down near the pool. He dived into the water and did a lap of the pool.

	"Well college isn't for everyone," he said. "Two of my friends never went to college and one of them now runs a multi-million dollar fashion line. As William Henley said 'I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul'." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

George sighed faintly and looked at her feet, her toes popping up off the water.

"I'd like multi-millions..." She muttered, almost under her breath. "My mother was wrong. I think I would love to shove this you just told me in her face." She mused, smirking. Just to see what counter-argument Joy would come up with. Those were good times.

She nodded solemnly at his quoting. Right on time, too.

	"Parents can often be wrong," he said quietly as he thought about his own father. Well his biological father anyway. He'd never been a real father to him. "If my mom had listen to my dad I wouldn't be in this pool right now." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	George looked at Lucas' expression changing, as hers did too. She assumed he meant his father wanted his mother to abort, and she didn't comply. Of course to each their own beliefs, but George knew how most stories like this went. She watched a lot of tv movies during Spring Break. "Well, good thing that she didn't..." George muttered, trying to smile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Thank you," he said with a soft smile. "So what do you work at?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

George smiled back.

"Public service sector, mostly." She answered. She was getting better and better at euphemisms for what she actually did. "And I work in a temp agency."

It was a good thing that she seemed to tolerate being wet quite well, otherwise she would be definitely looking a little weird and wrinkly right about now. Still, it was worth it, good company and bonding. She needed that after the boring and generally awful last few weeks.

	"That sounds interesting," he said with a warm smile. "You have to deal with a lot of people?" he asked. "Would you mind if I joined you in there?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Unfortunately..." George said, frowning. She stood quiet looking at Lucas for a few seconds after his request, but soon enough she had snapped out of it. "Sure, yeah. Public place..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He pulled himself out of the pool and into the jacuzzi. He leaned his arms back relaxing. There was a tattoo on his arm and a scar on his chest visible.

With his heart condition he knew he shouldn't strain himself too much in the pool. Especially since he hadn't found a way to get his heart medication here.

With the closer proximity he noticed more what she was wearing. The bikini was quite revealing and he did his best to keep his focus on her face.

George couldn't help but follow Lucas' movement out of the pool with her head, wearing a little smile at the corner of her mouth. She noticed his eyes shifting from her face briefly, and blushed.

She noticed a sort of scar on his chest, but didn't know whether to ask about it or not. After all, scars were quite usually permanent memories of bad things, and she didn't want this guy to associate her with them coming back. Instead, she smiled at him.

	He noticed her blush and blushed himself a little. She had obviously noticed his eyes shifting from her face. He smiled back at her. "Well I guess the good thing about this place is that it's relaxing," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	George nodded, looking at nothing in particular. "Yeah. And except from the activities, you can do pretty much whatever the hell you want, too." Or at least that's what she'd been lead to believe. She splashed her toes on the water slowly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"There are group activities?" he asked curiously. "It's nice to be able to do whatever the hell you want," he said smiling softly at her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yeah, but I haven't been tagged yet. I suppose it'll come soon enough." George said, shrugging. "Stuff like kayak and snow fights and whatever the hell else." She rolled her eyes. "It's my life's ambition." George said, grinning, replying to Lucas' comment about doing whatever the hell she wanted. It really was, now she thought about it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I take it your not a big fan," he said with a soft laugh when she rolled her eyes. "It's a good ambition," he said, grinning back at her. "It sounds liberating." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"It's not about the people, lord knows it's boring not to know anyone, it's more about what they have us do. You have no choice." She said, shrugging with annoyance.

"I would hardly know, but I bet it is liberating, too." She said, smiling again. "Do you ever do whatever the hell you want?" George didn't mean for it to sound as suggestive as she thought it probably had sounded, but she hoped he hadn't noticed...much.

	"That sucks. Maybe we should set up our own group activity?" he suggested. He grinned a little at her question. It did sound a little suggestive to him but he tried not to think on it too much. "Sometimes. I'd like to think that occasionally I do whatever the hell I want." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	George tilted her head to the left a little. "What do you suggest?" She asked with a finer voice than usual. She couldn't help the thoughts running through her mind at that moment, either. Good thing he didn't seem like a mind reader. Hopefully. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Hmm, I'm not sure really. What kinda things do you like to do?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notgivingashit 2009-02-08 02:21 pm UTC (link)
	"Ehh... I don't know. Stuff..." She said. George actually didn't have anything the loved to do, nothing that came to her mind immediately after being asked. "What about you?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well I love to play basketball if you'd be interested in that?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notgivingashit 2009-02-08 02:29 pm UTC (link)
	George sniggered slightly. She was failing all over, because sports were never really her thing. Especially not sports in which physical contact was forbidden. "I...Uh...I'm not very good." She said, deflated. "Actually last time I tried I was downright terrible." She finished, sort of laughing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	luke_scott22 2009-02-08 02:32 pm UTC (link)
	"Well I'm a basketball coach so I could teach you how to play if you like?" he asked. "If you're not interested it's cool. We could think of something else to do," he said with a soft smile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notgivingashit 2009-02-08 02:46 pm UTC (link)
	George paused for a moment, and thought back to the recent conversations she'd had. It seemed everything under the sun was pushing her to reinvent herself, do something new, learn something else. She had never been big on skills or hobbies, but if everyone else had so much fun, maybe she should've been. George nodded, grinning. "Alright, Lucas. I'm in." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Great," he said grinning widely at her. He was very passionate about the game he'd once played and now coached. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
