Mack walked around the edge of the pool, enjoying the silence. It was her fith day here and since she could now orientate herself decently, she had decided to take a walk. She sat with her feet in the water and turned on her mp3 player. She closed her eyes and tilted her head back.

James entered the darkened pool area through the boys' locker room. He had replaced his work attire with dark swim trunks, a dark t-shirt, and sliders, with a plain white towel slung over his shoulder. He could hear the water quietly lapping up against the sides of the pool and the filters at work. He stood at the end of the pool opposite Mack, oblivious to her as he slipped off his shoes and removed his t-shirt. He walked towards the diving board, walking in out of puddles of moonlight that passed through the windows.

Mack just kept listening to music, ignoring the presence of anyone else but her inside that room

James climbed up to the top level of the high diving board, and casually walked to the edge. He got into a diving position before performing a perfect dive, careful not to come to close to the bottom. He curved his body several feet beneath the water, and shot forward until he surfaced, shaking water from his eyes. He swam towards the edge, but instead of getting out, he ducked his head underwater to begin swimming laps.

Mack felt the waves caused by James' dive in her legs so she opened her eyes and looked at the pool where he was making laps 'Great' she thought as she putted the mp3 down an prepared herself to get up.

James did not notice her, he kept his head in the water for an entire lap, and lifted it only for a split second to get more air.

James heard a noise over his splashing and stopped, looking up to see what it was. He realized it came from behind him and turned to see ripples in the water, above a dark shape. He swam towards it for her a closer look.

Mack swam to the surface, taking deep breaths when she managed to do so. "Come on! Really? What have I done now?" she shouted

James stopped about a yard away, taken aback. "Fallen in, apparently." He instantly recognized her from class and turned to the side to get out.

"I've heard that you know?" Mack asked angryly as she saw to the stairs

James pulled himself out of the water and stood up. "It's ironic that a hunter with such potential can also be a klutz." He glanced over his shoulder at her, smirking, and went to get his towel.

"Oh I have potential? Gee you don't say" Mack said as she pulled herself out of the pool as well. "And I am not a klutz I just have an hystory of bad luck" she added as she took out her jacket and twisted it to get some of the water out 'like bad luck for being in this school' she thought

"I didn't call you a klutz, I said you could be one. You can blame it on back luck..." James replied, as if he didn't believe that. He dried himself off with the towel so his shirt wouldn't stick to his nicely toned body. He pulled his dry shirt over his head and looked at her, smiling again. He could sense her dislike for the place with or without her attitude, and he made no effort to hide his amusement.

Mack noticed his amusement at her situation. She walked to the edge of the pool again "I just realized that I could have drowned. I wonder if it's to late for that now?" she asked to herself but loud enough for him to hear it "oh well, I could give it a shot" she continued staring at her reflexion in the water
