Mack sent a harsh glare at Jack and crossed her arms over her chest, "I think I can handel it, Jack! I think after all I found out he did to me and my actual parents; that he should at least let me have free reign. Do you think I honestly care about things whether or not he likes the idea?! NO! You should know me better than that, Jack Rendel!!!" She nearly shrieked at him. She couldn't believe what she was hearing from him. Mack closed her eyes and lowered her head that said she was tired and upset and that she gave up, "What, do you not want to...do this?" She asked in a voice that was unlike her own.
"And yes. I want to go swimming." She added quietly.

Jack frowned at Mack and listened patiently through her whole shrieking fit. It didn't mean much to him, but he decided that to be a good friend, he wouldn't say anything just yet. When Mack had finished with him, Jack's voice sounded hoarse and unready. "Look, I know you can handle it but...." he paused, thinking of the right words that would describe his odd situation. "I just, don't want to be the cause of your misery, that's all." His voice was so quiet he wouldn't be suprised if Mack couldn't hear him, but he had no intentions on saying it again. It was true. He didn't want Mack to suffer just because of him. It would be unjust and he wasn't sure if he would be able to handle it if he found out Mack was being beat to little pieces or something like that. He shook his head slowly when Mack asked him if he didn't want to do this. "No, it's not that. I - this is the best thing that happened to me in a long while, I just don't want to cause you pain." He frowned at her disliking how she looked tired and sad, not like the Mack he usually knew.
"Sure. Swim. Yeah." Jack said louder this time. He thought that the awkward moments had passed, and he hoped that Mack understood his situation.

She scoffed- though she couldn't help but smile lightly; "Oh, believe me, you aren't the cause of my misery..you are the only person that keeps me sane! Without you I would have...well..Lord knows, so, yeah. JUst let's just drop it. Look, I'm not afraid of my father...and if I was I would tell you...alright? If anything I'll run away." She told him as the smile grew. Mack sighed and hugged him, "Don't worry so much, yeah?" She whispered.
"And now! We swim!"
((Sorry so short...))

((Don't worry about it!))
Jack grinned at Mack as she told him he wasn't the cause, but he still felt like the burden of the thought was still heavy. He let his spirits soar for a few moments. When Mack hugged him the soared all the higher but he forced himself to act cool. Act like a Slytherin. "Yeah." he replied softly. "Let's swim." Taking Mack's hand, he pulled her over to the pool, right to the very edge. He smirked at her before giving her a slight push that sent her toppling into the water. He knew that would get Mack going but he had wanted some of his little fun. Still smirking at Mack in a satisfied way, he sat down at the edge and started taking his shoes off.
"You know, I think I might want to take these off before I get in. You know, you can't dry with magic around here." Jack said casually, his smirk growing all the more.

Mack felt cold water blast through her as she was pushed into the pool. She screamed and broke the surface of the water, "JACK!!!" She screeched. Mack swam over to him and pulled him in while he was taking his shoes off. She pulled him in with so much force she nearly lost her balance, "You could've waited for my shoes to come off, you know?!" She put her hands on top of his head and pushed him under, dunking him into the chlorinated pool.

Jack laughed quietly at Mack until she pulled him under too. He was in an unready position: One shoes off, tugging on his sock. He was in complete shock when he felt the icy water come through his clothes. "MACK!" he screeched, very much like Mack had done before being pushed under water. This was an unsuspected turn of events, for he had his mouth open. The water, he found, did not taste very good. He swallowed only to find it go down his throat. He swam away from where he thought Mack's hand to be broke the surface to find himself ten feet away from her. Wading over to the side, Jack coughed and wheezed, trying to get all the water had had just swallowed out of his lungs. "That was very rude, you know," he teased weakly, his breath still coming in great gasps. Gathering all that he had, he splashed Mack with water.
"Maybe this pool thing wasn't such a good idea."

Mack held back as much laughter as she possibly could, but then she felt slightly guilty. She smield and swam over to him, leaning on the side of the pool next to him after he had splashed her, "Hey, it was the least I could do for that little push back there. Now don't tell me you didn't enjoy it in the least bit..." She said with a small laugh. Her eyes danced and she kicked her legs, splashing a little bit of water behind her.
"Besides," She stated as she swam to his other side, "I'm a rude person." she went under water and grabbed both of his legs- pulling him down and down and down and then letting go. She kicked up and tried to swim away, not hoping but sort of hoping none the less that he would catch ehr.
