Introverted Hearts // Josh Dun

chapter twenty nine :: i feel like i'm drowning

CJ screamed and put her arms up in defense.

"Told you you wouldn't get away with it!" He yelled over her screams.

Once he stopped, CJ looked down at herself. The grey nasa shirt was obviously wet.

"Now I'm gonna have to sit here in a soaking wet shirt." She told him.

"Or you could take it off and get in with me." Josh suggested.

"Forget it." She said as she sat back down in the chair. She reached into the bag and pulled her sunglasses out. She put her hair up and her sunglasses on. She then pulled out her phone and earbuds, putting her music on shuffle as she laid down in the lounge chair.

"CJ!" She heard her name being called after about half an hour of listening to her music.

She sat up and pulled her earbuds out. Josh was standing at the back of the diving board, waiting for her to watch him.

"This is for you babe!" He yelled before getting a running start, then did a front flip off of the edge of the diving board.

Once he came up, the guests that surrounded and were in the pool cheered.

CJ would've gotten up to give him a kiss, but Josh was the center of attention and she didn't want to be included in that.

Josh got out of the pool and made his way to his girlfriend. He leaned over her and gave her a kiss. "I hope you liked that."

"Loved it." CJ responded.

"Good," he gave her another peck on the lips. "Because my back stings really bad."

CJ smiled as she placed her hands on his damp neck. "That's 'cause you're an idiot."

"Wanna see something else that's gonna make me look like an even bigger idiot?" A goofy smile spread across his face.

"No," she shook her head with a grin on her lips. "I really don't."

Instead of doing what she said, he did the exact opposite.

Josh out his hand on her boob with his wet hand and gave it a squeeze. "Am I still an idiot?"

CJ pushed him off and looked down at her chest. "Yes," she punched his chest. "I don't wanna walk around with a hand mark on my chest!"

"It's okay," Josh replied as he pulled his towel from the bag and began drying himself off. "Now everybody will know that you have a boyfriend."

"So possessive." She mumbled as she pulled her knees up to her chest.

"This isn't about me," Josh told her. "I know you don't like talking to new people and if I'm not with you, guys are gonna be all over you."

"No," CJ shook her head. "They won't."

"You're so pretty," Josh gushed. "Anybody would be lucky to have you."

CJ rolled her eyes and let out a small mumble, feigning upset.

"Oh c'mon," Josh said as he leaned down. "Be nice."
