Summer fun
[The following day]
-The Community Pool-
“I'm boooored~” Justin, a compulsive, often ill-behaved short black-haired boy whined as he laid motionless upon a mattress-shaped pool toy. Justin had blue eyes and was the youngest of his friends by a few months.
“Same. What do you guys want to do after this?” Asked Tim, who was the oldest and generally the most mature of the group. Tim had hazel colored eyes and short wavy brown hair. He was laying back on one of the plastic recliners lined up along the side of the pool.
“I guess we could go back to my place and play some Smash bros..or something.” Sam suggested flatly as he floated in the pool with a foam noodle between his legs. Sam was a quiet easygoing blonde boy with blue eyes.
The three shirtless, trunks-clad thirteen year olds collectively sighed.
Danny was sitting quietly along the edge of the underground pool; his pale legs submerged in the water. The boy's mind was still preoccupied with what he had seen the day before. He had promised his father that he wouldn't tell a soul about the demonstration, but as the day wore on it was becoming increasingly difficult to keep it all to himself.
“Dude, what the heck is wrong with you? You've been out of it all day.” Justin asked as he floated up next to his friend.
“Oh!...uh...nothing.. It's nothing ...” Danny responded anxiously.
“Seriously man, what's bothering you? You're normally never this quiet.” Tim added as he stood up from his recliner and walked over towards Danny's direction.
“Ten bucks he's hiding something...” Sam smirked playfully as floated himself next to his friend's submerged legs.
“Ugh...guys... I'm kinda not supposed to talk about it...” He muttered meekly. His response appeared to have immediately piqued the interest of the other three boys.
“Wait, does it have to do with your dad's big project?” Tim asked.
Danny's friends knew all about his father's work. He had already told them that his dad had been working on something big for the past year now.
Danny's quiet, uncomfortable reaction to the question made it clear that Tim had hit the bullseye.
“Sick dude! What did he tell you??? Spill it!” Sam asked excitedly as he grabbed on to and shook Danny's ankles.
Knowing that his buds weren't likely to let it go now, Danny figured he might as well just come out with it. He trusted his friends enough to confide in them at least. Anyways, It's not like he'd be proclaiming the secret to the world or anything, so what would be the harm?
“....A-alright....fine.....” Danny waved for his friends to come in close.
The boys quickly crowded around the brown haired teen; their distorted reflections shimmering upon the surface of the pool.
“Okay..so....my dad showed me something AMAZING yesterday ....but you guys gotta PROMISE to not tell ANYONE about it!..” Danny whispered as he looked into each of his friend's eyes.
The three boys nodded earnestly.
Breaking his father's trust, Danny told them everything. …..
