Matt had aleady thrown his stuff in his room. Now, him and Duchess were simply chilling out. He was wearing his usual clothes, the brown leather jacket with the t-shirt and the faded jeans, but he was getting ready to ditch most of them. He took off the jacket and hung it over a chair. He slipped off his shoes and socks and pulled off his jeans, revealing black swim trunks. He then pulled off his shirt, showing off his tanned features. Well, and of course his well-muscled body. He had a six-pack, and the rest was pure muscle. There wasn't an ounce of body fat on him, and he worked hard for that.
He let Duchess lay down by the recliner, and he pulled off his sunglasses, setting them down on the table. He grabbed his wand and conjured a bottle of Corona with a slice of fresh lime out of nowhere. Ah, now this was much better. Why not get a head start on the night, hmm? He saw no problems with it. Besides, he really didn't care what other people thought about him. He took a long draw from the bottle before setting it down and heading for the diving board. He walked onto it and took off, leaping and arching his body into a perfect swan dive. He barely stirred the water, and small ripples spread out from the point of contact.
He surfaced after a long while and spewed water. His hair was wet and plastered to his forehead, so he shook it, sending water flying everywhere. It worked though, for his hair was able to move, and it was just shaggy and wet now. It didn't look half bad on him. He started to do laps. He needed to keep in shape as much as the next person, so why not get a head start now? He had plenty of time to waste until night would find him, so he'd get some exercise in and relieve some stress and such. He did twenty laps before he flipped onto his back and just floated along peacefully.

A small sigh escaped Beatrix's lips as she stepped into the fitness room. Ah, exercising. Not her greatest way of having fun but she had to stay fit. She walked in with her strapless short beach dress on. Her white bikini with rainbow polka-dots was under-neath. She sighed as she dropped her bag to the floor, keeping her large square sunglasses on her face.
She spotted a male in the water, floating on his back. She raised an eyebrow and looked away. She slipped off her flip-flops and took off her dress revealing her bikini and nice tanned body. She yawned and took off her sunglasses, revealing her pretty light hazel eyes with eyeliner and mascara on them. Water-proof of course. She sat down on one of the chairs and slipped her sunglasses into her bag. Then she stood up and dived into the pool, swimming past the boy.
Beatrix did 5 laps before she stopped at the edge of the pool, breathing hard, pulse racing. Yes well, she wasn't that great of a swimmer so she couldn't do 50 laps. But she would be able to do 5 more....later.

Matt looked up as a girl walked in. He watvhed her for a minute until she spotted him, by which time he had looked away already. He looked over at Duchess, knowing she would gladly get into the water, but he didn't want them to find hair floating around in the pool. He could only imagine the effect that could have.
As she dove in, he watched her swim past him, moving his eyes back to staring at the ceiling. When he heard her stop, and heard the heavy breathing, he flipped back over, treading water, and looked at her. Apparently, she wasn't the greatest swimmer around. That was obvious. "What's wrong?" he called to her.

Beatrix's eyes moved towards the male as he spoke to her. "Oh, erm...nothing....just not the greatest swimmer" she called over to him. She gave him a small smile and then swam over to him "Beatrix Rainstone, fifthe year Fina" she said, holding out her hand for him to shake. She gave him another smile as she glanced at his dog. She looked kinda lonely and Beatrix, being an animal lover, hated lonely animals.

Matt nodded as she said she wasn't the greatest swimmer. She then swam over to him, stating her name, year, and house. She offered her hand. He took it, shaking it gently. "I'm Matthew Jerrolds. Seventh year Intermise." He smiled, seeing her gaze on Duchess. "That's Duchess, my Siberian Husky. She wants to get in the pool. Sadly, I don't think others would appreciate the hair they would find." He grinned.

She laughed, "I'm sure. Get her a kiddie pool, then everyone would be happy" Beatrix joked. She smiled at him. Seventh year? He seemed slightly younger. She glanced at his drink. So he drank, at 17? That was quite young. "Erm, you drink? Muggle drinks?" she asked him, slightly confused why he would want to drink anything muggle. Muggles provided the wizarding world with nothing so why should we accept their things? It was completly absurd if you asked her, but no one would. Beatrix smiled slightly and looked into the water.

He laughed and said,"Yeah, I guess they would. I'll have to consider that one."
He noticed her glance at his drink, and he guessed she would ask about it. When she threw in the muggle part, he looked back at her. "Yeah, I drink regularly. It helps. And yes, I drink muggle drinks. I grew up with a muggle father, so I had muggle and wizarding things as a child." He shrugged. "I guess I picked up liking muggle beer from his friends. He always had wine..." He shook his head slightly, trying to stay out of the past as much as possible, but he made no indication as to the uncomfortableness.
"So, do you have any animals?" He needed to change the subject, and as they were previously discussing his dog, they might as well continue a similar discussion on animals in general.

"Of course! A black owl named Striker. But what's strange about him is that he has silver under his wings and a speck on his foredhead. I dunno, I guess I thought he was neat so I bought him" she shrugged. She smiled and then swam towards the ladder. She climbed up, water dripping off her. "So how long have you had Duchess for?" she called to him as she started wipping herself off with her towel.

He laughed and said,"That's definitely different. But that makes him more unique, and it makes him interesting, especially for conversations." He grinned at her. "I've had Duchess ever since she was a pup. Her mom died after she gave birth to them, so I took care of them all. I sold the others to excellent homes, and I kept Duchess for myself. I would have kept the others, but I didn't trust my mother with them, and I was leaving for school at some point..." He looked over at Duchess fondly. She was his first friend, and she was his closest friend. Hey, she didn't have any remarks or comments to make, just expressions and noises to make him laugh.

She smiled. "That's sweet. I love animals so if I could I'd have a house full of them" she laughed. It's true. She absolutly loved animals. She was very emotional about animals but she sometimes didn't show it too much. It was no ones business what she thought of animals. She finished wipping herself and placed her towel on the chair and stretched with a slight yawn. "Boy am I tired" she said, kinda to herself. She went over to the pool. She sat down on the edge and put her feet into the pool.

He grinned and said,"Yeah, but it's just me and Duchess." He flipped back onto his back, floating there comfortably. He was like a fish in the water. He loved it. He loved working out and swimming, but he hated any and all sports. At least, now he did... "Tired? Well, that either means you've overexerted yourself, or you didn't get enough sleep. There are a few ways to solve each..." He smiled at her.

Beatrix laughed. "Well aren't you Mr. Exercise" she said sarcastically. She splashed him as she lay on his back. She laughed out loud.
