I walked through the park on a small hike to the lake in the center. No one would be there today as everyone was busy except him mainly because of summer jobs and other reasons. I hiked over a hill and spotted the lake not to far down the hill. As I started walking down the hill got steep. So I switched my footing and slid down with ease.
Making it to the lake I walked over to the surprisingly deserted place and pulled off the shoes I had on and sat down at the edge of the grass. I had expected at least one person to be here besides me by now so it was even more quite then expected. 'I wonder how Izzy is doing,' Izzy is one of my friends that I keep in contact with over the summer. I closed my eyes for a second and breathed in a deep sigh then opened my eyes and looked around as if expecting someone to appear behind him and scare him.

•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘• It was warm out, and being as my parents were something of weather police. Thus when it was nice out my sister and I were expected to be outside and enjoying the day regardless of whether or not we wanted to. It wasn't like I had a grudge against nature I was just more into the idea of video games a horror movies when the humidity outside exceeded 60%. All the same here I was milling through the park, more importantly on my way to the lake.
I almost wanted to venture a guess that the lake would be packed with people needing an escape from the heat but to my pleasant surprise there was only one person standing on the waters edge. From a distance there was no way of telling who it was, I didn't have the eyes of an Eagle after all. On the other hand it didn't take me that long to get down the hill to join the mystery person. Chiefly due to the fact that I was not coordinated on hills and most of the way I stumbled down.
Before saying hello I managed to regain my composer and make the discovery that it was in fact someone I knew from school.
“Al? Hey what are you doing here?"
Suddenly having to be outside wasn't quite so unplesant.

I guess even saying speak of the devil would not be to smart to say so I thought about it. Eithier way I was happy Izzy was here. He turned around and greeted her,"Hey Izzy! I came out here to relax some,how about you?" I was happy to see someone I knew down here to,hopefully today would be a good one. To be fair I had to use all my power to force down blushing a bit,as I had a serious crush on Izzy,and not the 'stupid high school kid' crush type.
Anyways I managed to keep it hidden better then the government could have. I sat down at the edge of the lake again and motioned Izzy over before she could respond to me,it would be more comfortably then standing and talking after all.

•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘• “Well my parents have a contract signed with mother nature, so long as the sun is out my sis an I should be out for at least some part of the day or she gets my folks next child...”
To get more comfortable on the banks edge I pulled my knees up to my chest, and at the same time looked to Al hoping my terrible idea of a joke wouldn’t freak him out. Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of some kind of fish jump out of the water.
“Okay that was pretty cool.”
I never turned to look in the general direction of the lake to catch it, I was too busy w acting Al. He looked different outside of school, but in a good way.

I gave an amused chuckle at the small joke about her parents. In my mind I mentally checked off another reason why I was glad to be living on my own. I caught sight of a fish jump out of the water and land back in. It was a rare site to see a fish in the popular swimming lake let alone a jumping fish. I remembered that there was a few other times I came down here some when it was deserted others when it was packed.
"Yeah,this place can be beautiful when no one is scaring the fish away by dive bombing the lake." I said with a smirk remembering the times I had seen people jumping into the lake by cannon balls and the such,it really was a shame that this place was often packed with people. Then suddenly I saw about three fish jump out of the water in conjunction then land back in. "I would imagine a school of fish out here," I said imagining a school of fish swimming around inside a lake. "So what have you been up to?" I asked switching my attention to Izzy who was sitting next to me.
