11: The Odd Pool Party (1/1)

"What are you wearing?" "What's wrong with it?" Wendy looks at her outfit, twisting to check all sides of it. "Irene invited us to a pool party…" "And? I can swim in this." "What happened to the swimsuit I bought for you?" "It's… there…" Wendy was wearing the swimsuit Joy had bought for her, but it was a little too… much for her. So she opted to put on some shorts and a ragged old sleeveless shirt over the attire. "Take it off." Joy deadpanned. Compared to Wendy, Joy was proudly wearing the swimsuit bought for her. Only a see-through sarong to complete the look. "No." Wendy crossed her arms and turned her head away. "That's not fair, I'm proudly wearing my wife's gift." "That's because you look like a goddess," Wendy said in the most serious of tones. Joy had to admit, she thought she looked great too. The swimsuit hugged all the right spots, showed off her best features, all the while maintaining an aura of elegance. "I do… but so do you, so take it off." Joy lifted the shirt which Wendy promptly smacked it down. "No." "Yes." They repeated the cycle as Joy tried taking off the shirt and Wendy smacking it down. After a rushed tenth cycle, Joy lifted the shirt and she achieved an obstruction less Wendy torso. "Perfect, now let's go." Joy began walking away. "I don't know why you are so insecure about it, it's just the five of us anyways." Joy opened the door to leave but noticed Wendy wasn't following. "Wendy?" Joy turned around to see Wendy still in her spot, bare torso, but her arms were crossed and her foot tapping impatiently. In their little push and pull, Joy accidentally left the shirt covering Wendy's face. "Perfect huh? What are you trying to say about my face?" Joy impishly wandered back to pull the shirt down to see a half scowl half pout look on Wendy's face. "You know I love your face." Joy gave her a quick kiss to provide evidence. "Let's just go now." Wendy smirked proudly as Joy dragged her wrist no longer bothering with the shirt. Wendy had won the battle, but not the war."You two are late!" Irene brightly greets them at the door. "Joy… amazing…" "Thanks, Wendy picked it out." "She truly knows you inside and out." "Are you hitting on my wife for me?" Wendy raised an eyebrow. Irene laughed. "Yeri and Seulgi are already in the back, come on in." No matter how often Wendy and Joy visited Irene, they were always stunned by how beautiful her house was. It was also a little confusing she got a house with a pool, considering she was deathly afraid of water. It paid off though as she learned to face her fear and held many successful parties using the pool as a centerpiece. Joy stepped outside first followed by Irene and Wendy. "I set up a small buffet of snacks, feel free to take some when you are hungry." Having missed lunch because they were running late, the couple went straight for the table of food after waving to Yeri and Seulgi who were suspiciously huddled in a corner. "Hey uh.... Irene?" Joy asked hesitantly. "Why are they snickering…" Irene was mumbling to herself staring at her other two guests before responding to Joy. "Do you need anything Joy? Napkins?" "We were just wondering if half-filled plates were some kind of trend." Every single snack plate was perfectly cut in half. Even the dishes that should leave some kind of leftover was sparkling clean like there was never food there in the first place. "What the?" Irene remembered two certain individuals who were sneaking a few bites even though she asked them to wait. "Seulgi! Yeri!"These parties usually resulted in Yeri, Joy, and Seulgi playing around in the pool while Wendy and Irene sunbathed. They would usually join later. "Joy! Seulgi! I finally mastered the butterfly stroke! Watch!" Yeri backed up a few feet, took a few deep breaths and pushed off the wall. The first stroke was a piece of art. The second stroke may have been, but Joy and Seulgi couldn't really see underwater. "Hey, Joy? That's not what supposed to happen right?" "I don't think so." Only a few bubbles float to the surface for the next few seconds. "She is drowning huh?" "I think so." Both Seulgi and Joy both grab an arm and lift up Yeri who takes a deep breath. They try to hide their laughter but fail. Yeri gave some angry eyes, but the red on her cheeks was from embarrassment more than anger. "Shut up.""Stop climbing on me!" "Stop kicking me in the shin!"<
