I Want To Consume Pools Pls - Blog Posts

Late night adventures with your 'friend' (Pt 1.)

TW: Suggestive, Evan question his sexuality by experimenting with his 'friend' *wink wink* (Idk where I'm going with this one chat.)

A glimpse into Avery and Evan's past.

It's 1999 in Reseda, California, and safe to say, it's hot. So what better way is there to cool off than by going to the pool? A good idea, it would have been, if it was day time.

But no, Avery had different plans.

Now Evan's questioning his life decisions at exactly 11:23 PM, watching his 'friend' scale the wall of a flimsy fence to get into a locked pool. He's sort of scared.

It's not the idea of getting caught he's afraid of, oh no. He's afraid of what he might do, spending all that time alone with Avery.

“I’m not so sure about this, Avery.” 

Evan glanced at the CLOSED AFTER 5:00PM  sign that was stuck on the wired fence, before glancing back at his watch, which read 11:22 PM.  

It was safe to say that the pool was closed. 

 That didn’t stop Avery from attempting to scale the fence of the closed off pool, though. Keep in mind, attempting.

He cringed, watching his friend continue to misplace his foot, slip, and flail his legs around for the third time in a row. It was horrifically entertaining. 

Avery huffed, his breath heavy. “Trust me on this one Evan, I’ve done this tons of times.” He took a deep breath before resuming his attempt to break in.

Evan sighed, slumping his back on to the flimsy wired fence, which caused Avery to slip once again, which he didn’t seem to notice. 

“We should just head back to yours, I’m kind of craving some of your mom’s home cooked meals right now.”

Evan did not want to stay here any longer. He was kind of getting creeped out, the soft blue light emanating from the pool contrasting the pitch dark they were surrounded by. Even the sidewalk seemed ominous. The sidewalk lamps were dimly light, most flickering from the lack of care. The flash light Avery gave did not comfort him.

“As if!” Avery scoffed.Now having made some progress, he sat on the top of the fence, his hands placed beside him on the cold metal pipe that was providing him with support. “I know you’re just gonna to try to hit on my mom, you ass!”

Evan cheeks burned red, his lie caught, turning his back to Avery in embarrassment at the accusation. “Shut up! You can’t blame me for wanting to stay at home!” 

 Avery rolled his eyes at his friend, slowly hopping off the pipe, carelessly placing his foot on weak wire.

 “C’mon, it’ll be rad, trust me-” CRASH. 

Evan turned around, his eyes wide, searching for Avery on the top of the fence, who was nowhere in sight. He panicked before hearing Avery’s cracked voice.

“I’m fine!” 

Evan looked down, seeing Avery sprawled upon the floor. He probably lost his footing attempting to climb down. Maybe wearing flip flops was a bad idea Avery. 

“Dumb ass.”

The tanned boy stood up, dusted his crusty jorts with a bloody knee that was quite visible. He gave a thumbs up to his friend on the other side, which was met with an eye roll. 

“Just open the damn gate dude.”
