it’s so embarrassing to admit that he’d never surf before, but the lady on the phone had insisted on him joining the children’s class over and an adult - the latter having individuals with somewhat experience. however, he’s sure if he had a chance to explain, it’d be less embarrassing. besides, no one dared to swim in the hudson river - that was asking for an infection. “i know how to swim,” he whispers, lips pushing out into a pout though it doesn’t last long as he finds himself fixated on her smile - something that would lodge itself into his memory, the blonde thinking about it late at night as he waits for the next lesson. he looks down at his outfit, a pair of swim trunks, before looking to the kids - realizing then that they all had wetsuits on. no one had told him to get one, which only made him stick out like a sore thumb. he laughs, rubbing his hand along the back of his neck before giving a small squeeze. “yeah, sure…just tell me where to go and i’ll be more prepared tomorrow, i promise,” he returns, his blonde curls loosening due to her splash. her smile never fades though and he wonders if she was always like this - happy. wesley barely knows her and yet, he can’t help but feel as if she were content with who and what she did - that rarely came across back in the big city. “i’m wesley but uh…you can call me wes,” he smiles, “and i think i’m ready…i’m not too sure what to do but if the kids can do it then so can i!”
she didn’t care if he had surfed before, or even if he had ever reached the ocean so intimately - either way, she hoped he’d enjoy himself. taking the first steps with ease, lola proceeded to instruct wesley on the baby movements. she eased him into the water with laughter, often splashing it in his direction before moving onto the next step. falling off and on they carried on, teaching wesley for a few hours whilst checking back on the children now and again - who were, without a doubt, better than the new boy. as the time ran down, the watch on her wrist striking on the hour, lola blew on her plastic whistle and called for the children to return to the sand, taking wesley’s hand without another thought as she tugged him back onto the sand. “good job guys, i’ll see you tomorrow!” waving to her students till they returned to their awaiting parents, lola turned to the other before her, holding her surfboard to one side. “hey, good job! you’re a real natural,” she grinned, gently punching wesley’s arm before meeting his eye - watching the colour that seemed to reflect the ocean’s hue. watching for just a moment too long, lola pulled back, releasing her board so it swayed before her cheeks rose to a gentle pink. “we could, uh, sort out that wetsuit?” she began, reaching upward to release her hair from it’s tie as her ex came forth - chad, a guy she had once cared for but had dumped within a series of explicits.
