Dallon and Ryan laugh as they splash each other in the pool. Right besides them, races are running. It's the last day of school, last day of practice.
Dallon looks at the dwindling line for the races and swims to the edge, pushing himself out of the pool.
"Hey coach!" Dallon calls out, "Me next." a slight smirk appears on his face.
The coach nods approvingly "Anyone willing to challenge Weekes?!"
Some kid walks up, Dallon recognizes him as Brendon Urie from JV. Everyone raises an eyebrow.
"100 meter individual medley!" The coach yells, Ryan smiles and Dallon and Dallon smiles back, putting on his goggles and cap.
"Best of luck to you Urie. You're gonna need it."
The other boy laughs, Dallon notes his cockiness.
They both get in diving position, when the whistle blows, Dallon pushes off first, diving into the water and starting off well paced before speeding up, Urie entirely falling behind, he was one stroke behind him. Dallon's and smacks the opposite wall and he gasps for air. Ryan's there to celebrate his predictable victory.
Brendon finally comes in and pants, looking angry.
"Better luck next time Urie and word of advice for future reference, don't challenge one of the schools best swimmers to a race if you want to win."
Ryan elbows him "What!? I said one of!"
"Not the problem Dal."
Dallon chuckles and dives back into the pool for mere relaxation, Ryan does the same.
The coach has them hustle up and get changed so he can present awards.
Dallon comes back out in his usual cardigan, button up and ripped black jeans. Ryan walks beside him, wearing a band tee and ripped black pants. Their hair drips onto their backs, not that they could care though.
The whole team, hell, the entire school knew them as the inseparable swim stars. You'd never see Dallon without Ryan and Ryan without Dallon. It's just a thing.
Almost the entire team was on the pool deck already, only the coach had to come back out. Eventually he returned with letters, certificates and medals. He quickly begins his speech.
"We say goodbye to our seniors and wish them farewell. However don't you dare believe that without them we won't dominate and destroy Santa Monica Prep. We will." there's a pause. "Now let's present our letters and awards."
Letters were handed out, awards as well, Dallon and Ryan only waiting for theirs.
"Now for our MVPS. I couldn't pick just one, they both did amazing and absolutely owned the pool. As expected they were the true stars this season. Dallon, Ryan get up here."
They both smile, this is their second year out of two years of their high school career that they received MVP. They grab their awards and medals, sitting back down after.
They smile at each other, Dallon leaning on Ryan.
