“You know...” The brunette started, lips curling to the side thoughtfully as she eyed the camera in her hands like it was some kind of puzzle. This was the first time Lola had actually made it inside of Nico’s apartment, and it wasn’t as though she had been trying, she just needed a night in from their usual debauchery. There were only so many places you could cause ruckus, ( the brunettes self titled version of therapy ), before you needed to lie a little low. Takeout would do just fine. “I can’t believe that we’ve known each other, what...” Gaze turned to Nico with a playful raise of her brow. “Three months now? And you, whose entire career revolves around taking pictures, have not yet taken mine.” Lola set down the camera, folding her arms across her chest as she teased him with a look of faux offense. “I’m starting to think you don’t find me photogenic.” Brows lifted again in expectance of his reply, though she couldn’t help the smile that had begun to creep onto her face in a subtle lift of one corner.

Teddy hadn’t meant to get a crush on his girlfriends younger sister. In fact, he still liked to think that he hadn’t, that she was just a friend of which he found himself wanting to spend more and more time. He liked his girlfriend, he knew that much, but he didn’t quite know how to comprehend how Dove made him feel. So, he repressed it as much as he could at least, which was enough to keep suspicion off of his back. The family holiday had been great, because he could spend as much time around Dove as he wanted without it being weird. Which was why he found himself elated when she came to join him whilst he swam some late night laps. “Annoying?” Teddy paused on the thought, humming with a furrowed brow as if he were trying to recollect the information for her. As their hands made contact, a sadistic grin flashed onto his face, not giving her the time to react as he yanked her into the water with him, withdrawing so he was at least out of her reaction zone, even if he would naturally gravitate back to her anyway. “You know, I don’t think they have. Just you, but I haven’t got the foggiest idea of why. Hey, Dove?” Teddy added, letting only a beat pass before he got to the stupid punchline that had been creeping to the tip of his tongue the whole time. “Has anyone ever told you that you’re kind of wet?”

Dove had excused herself to her room hours ago, her chair screeching against the wood floors in the dining room as she watched her sister dote on her boyfriend. It wasn't fair of her to be jealous, obviously she knew that, but she'd stewed in it for a little while up there, trying to distract herself. Once again she'd made her way down though, and ended up with her feet hanging in the pool, rolling her eyes at Teddy. Kicking in his general direction, she sent a splash of water his way paired with a glare that wasn't quite believable enough when she also felt like she was blushing. "Has anyone ever told you that you're kind of annoying?" Despite her words, it was clear that she liked him a little too much, always hanging around him, always spending these moments together laughing and teasing each other and maybe flirting. As he suddenly began to get closer, she reached out a hand to him, thinking she was being helpful in pulling him to the edge after the laps he'd been doing.

“Admit it?” The blonde couldn’t help but let a soft bark of laughter escape her, face warped into a slightly incredulous disbelief. “Tell me, were you born that overconfident or did you have to like, train for twenty years in a dojo?” Lottie’s brow arched, but somehow, she stayed put. She wouldn’t have admitted it, obviously, she wasn’t even supposed to be here, but she was a little intrigued by the peroxide blonde. Even if he was a product of the dingy bar she’d protested against all night to her friends. “Sure, you can buy me a drink.” She’d been sipping at a vodka cranberry most of the night. “But I can’t guarantee it’ll make it easier...Maybe you could try buying it, and then walking like...Twenty paces in that direction?” Charlotte pointed toward the exit with a smile of faux sweetness, but his confidence, despite her projection of distaste, had her caught, enough to subtly push out her chest and twirl a strand of blonde around a manicured finger. Wanting to catch his attention, but not really sure what she wanted to do with it after. Indecisiveness was very on brand for her.

"Y'know, if you didn't like me I think this interaction would have been over a long time ago, so maybe we skip all the pretending and you just admit it?" Crash was feeling bold, probably spurred on by an excellent set with his band only an hour prior and the drinks he'd thrown back the second he got off stage. It was just like him to get distracted by some pretty blonde thing, the first one to give him a lick of attention and then act like she couldn't stand him. "I'll even buy you a drink if it makes it easier on ya."

“You know what, I prefer this. I like it when you make me work for it, it’s very us.” Crash had caught on to this dynamic early and he was a fucking sucker for it, to say the least. Girls who acted like they wanted nothing to do with him until he literally had them pinned against a wall with his fingers down the front of her underwear happened to be a personal favourite of his. Sure, he’d like to see pretty Charlotte with her snotty personality, pretty friends who’d likely dragged her here against her will and bouncy hair say that she liked him, but he believed they’d get there… eventually. Grinning as she gave him permission to buy her a drink, he chuckled, turning to get the attention of the bartender. “Right, right, I mean if you want me to leave with you we can at least wait for your drink, sweetheart.” He ordered her another vodka cranberry and himself another beer, leaning there with his elbow on the bar top as he unsubtly checked her out. “You look like you don’t know what to do with yourself, you know that?”

"Oh totally, if there was an us, which, of course, there isn't." Fake smile as the blonde squinted her eyes sarcastically, before hazel hues rolled at his grin, not surprised he would take her comment as a win, because this guy didn't exactly seem like the quitting type. Not that she wanted him to quit per say, drawn to him for some inexplicable reason that she was sure she would likely regret the morning after. Of course, she wasn't about to tell him any of this, she didn't want to feed his complex, and she hated to say it, but, he was kind of right, it was very them. Something about their back and forth felt a little...Sexy. "That's cute." Lottie remarked at his little 'joke', nodding her thanks to the bartender with what appeared to be a genuine little smile before her gaze was back on Crash and her brow was arched with a slightly amused smirk of curiosity. "What an astute observation, have you ever thought about becoming a detective?" Husky chuckle escaped her as she took a drink, and then leaned forward into his space ever so slightly, entertaining his question as her head angled to the left. "That's likely because girls like me don't usually cohabitate in places like this. Who'd have thunk it, huh?" Narrow eyed gaze flashed him a sarcastic smile as her sights momentarily traipsed over his face in intrigue. He was cute, she had to give him that. "What gave it away?"

They always went back and forth like this, like idiots who couldn’t manage to shut up for two seconds, or at least that was what her sister would say. It wasn’t like Dove went out of her way to like Teddy, if anything the odds had been stacked against him. She hadn’t liked one of her boyfriends since she was a little kid and even then it was because he bribed her with chocolate and Mario Kart. He didn’t need to do that, she just liked him anyway, to her own damn detriment. She should have known he was going to pull her in, but her own lack of thinking landed her in the pool in her dress, squealing as she came up for air. “Oh my god! You asshole.” She pushed her hair out of her face, shooting Teddy a glare as he got out his stupid little joke. Scowling, she immediately began to swim in his direction, splashing all the way until she caught hold of his shoulder and at first it didn’t occur to her that she was touching bare skin that she hadn’t first, that she was close enough to be pressed against him, trying to shove him in the water to no avail as the splashing stopped. She could hear herself breathing slowly as she stared at him, brows furrowed together. “You’re not funny.” She told him, a useless statement considering she was already drenched.

Teddy had already began to put his hands up in surrender the moment her delicate frame began crashing through the water toward him, laughter spilling from his lips in ways he just never had with her sister. He had been so wrapped up in the moment of it all, large arms encapsulating her frame in efforts to lift and fight against her drowning attempt, completely unaware of how inappropriate it was until it was too late, and by that point he couldn't bring himself to peel away. Too enamored by the heat of her waist on his hands, the rise and fall of their chests only centimeters from breaking yet another boundary. Would it have been so bad? To simply steal a quick glance? If he just let his eyes dip to the inviting petals of her frustrated pout, would they both perish? Consequential actions didn't seem to matter as much right now, the male swallowing as his tongue dashed to wet his lips and his gaze dropped to the temptation of her pretty mouth. Heat pooled in the pit of his stomach. Quick to return, however, Teddy cleared his throat, and offered her a smile, the best he could do to distract himself from taking advantage of the moment. "You're precious, Velazquez. You know that?" An absentminded hand moved to stroke a wet strand behind her ear, lingering just a little too long.
