>>18417846By the time Amy gets to the pool, Colby is already rather drunk. She watches her dive in with a leer, then raises her whiskey glass in a salute.
>"Heyyyy Amelia!"She swirls the liquor around in her glass and sips it, then looks down at it.
>"Don't worry, starting tomorrow we get serious again. This is just a relaxation day, after yesterday's loss. After this, it's time to go to work."Colby looks down at the whiskey for a second and takes a deep breath. She'd better say something about the OTHER situation.
>"Aaaand my little sister Carmody's in town. She says she wants to go to the community college. I told her it's not a good idea and she needs to go back home. I even offered to buy her a ticket."Colby gulps down the rest of her drink, sets her glasses aside, then slides into the pool and moves closer to Amy in the water.
>"Anyway, she might try to approach you if she sees you. She's kinda curious about you. It's probably not a big deal, but if you run into her without me there and she starts being weird, let me know. I'll yank a knot in her tail. We've just gotta send her back before Miss USA realizes who she is, or something else happens, you know?"Colby drunkenly floats around Amy, staying near her, and looks at her with a lazy smile that covers over some of her lingering worries, about both the last match Warhorse, and Carmody.
