I really don't want to be the pirate king

Caitlin was in the water, her hair covered by a swimming cap, completely exposing her face. Her bare face was very beautiful, and water droplets slid down her face and fell on her towering chest.

"You're right, I lost."

Aaron admitted frankly, looked at Caitlin with a smile, and said, "But if you give me another chance, I think I will win."

"Then come."

Caitlin raised her chin, looked at him and said, "How many times will you lose."

So he and Caitlin competed again. This time he used a little more strength to catch up with each other, but just when he was about to overtake her, he suddenly slowed down.

"Look……"

Caitlin emerged from the water and said proudly, "I still won."

"you are great."

Aaron said with a smile, and then asked: "Caitlin, how do you swim so fast, can you teach me?"

"sure."

Hearing Aaron's request, Caitlin smiled and said, "Come, I'll teach you."

"I use crawl swimming, which requires two arms to paddle and two feet to hit the water. It is the fastest way to swim."

Caitlin climbed up to the edge of the pool, lay down there, and demonstrated for him, "Pay attention to my movements, use my hands to paddle in turn, and my feet to move the water up and down."

"understood."

Aaron nodded and immediately followed suit, but his movements were wrong.

"It's not like this……"

Caitlin jumped into the water, swam over, and said: "Your head and shoulders should be slightly above the water, but not too high. Move your arms in turn. After the arms enter the water, the palms of your hands will turn from diagonally outside and below to diagonally inward. As you push back, rotate your upper arms inwards and bring your palms toward your thighs.”

She held Aaron's arms and palms to demonstrate, and after helping him complete the paddling movements, she added: "Pull the water to the back with your right arm, roll your body slightly to the left, lift your head away from the water, and open your mouth to inhale."

Aaron immediately did what she said, but it was very irregular, so Caitlin demonstrated from the side and helped him adjust the amplitude.

"Put your legs together, and your thighs drive your calves, whipping them up and down, but not too much."

Caitlin put her hands on the wall of the pool, her head submerged in the water, her arms tightly together, her feet hitting the water, and said: "Come, lie down on the edge of the pool and sit for a while."

"understood."

Aaron immediately complied, and after waiting for the standard, Caitlin let him try swimming.

"Don't turn your body too much, keep your head steady, and your buttocks tight."

Caitlin said, "You have to follow the movement of water. Oh, yes, that's it."

"The movement of the hand was wrong again. When entering the water, it turned from the diagonal outward direction to the inward direction and then moved backward."

Caitlin corrected his question, and then said appreciatively, "This time was good."

The difficulty of crawl swimming is that when the movements change, the small changes in local parts must be well coordinated, and the front and back rhythms must be matched.

Aaron's control over his body was quite good, especially after he found the rhythm, his speed became much faster. Water spray rose from both sides and behind his feet, making him seem to have turned into an arrow.

"almost."

Caitlin saw this scene and said with a smile: "You are already swimming well."

"Thanks to you for teaching me."

Aaron straightened up, looked at the other person and said, "To thank you, how about I treat you to a meal?"

"It's not necessary, it's not a big deal."

Caitlin climbed up from the pool, stood there and took off her swimming cap, her long dark blue hair falling down.

"That's okay, it's a waste of so much of your time."

Aaron also climbed up, stood in front of her and said, "I know a very delicious restaurant and I would like to invite you to try it."

Looking at Aaron's face, Caitlin suddenly realized something. Was he dating her?Or don’t want to express gratitude to yourself?

She wanted to refuse, but hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay."

"Then it's settled."

Aaron smiled and said: "Go down to seven o'clock tomorrow and we will meet on time."

Leaving these words, Aaron jumped out of the swimming pool and swam towards the distance.

Caitlin was stunned for a moment, turned around and left, returned to the room, entered the bathroom, and took a shower, but she still hesitated.

What does he mean by inviting himself to dinner?Probably just to thank you.

Caitlin didn't think much about it, but the next afternoon, she fell into hesitation in front of the wardrobe, "Is this dress too solemn? Isn't it a little too simple to wear this dress?"

So she chose a black dress, left the room, and saw Aaron wearing a blue suit, standing there waiting for her.

This is the first time I see the other person wearing a suit. It gives people a calm and disciplined feeling, and the blue color does not look so serious.

"Let's go."

Aaron's words interrupted her thoughts, and the two entered the elevator. After getting off, they walked out of the hall and entered an electric car.

The vehicle drove into the distance and arrived in front of a luxurious Western restaurant. It was the most high-end restaurant in the city and usually required reservations.

The two walked in, only to find that there were no other customers except the waiter.

The two sat at the table in the center of the hall. The waiter had already brought the sobered wine and then started serving the meal, starting with the appetizers.

"Why are there only two of us?"

Caitlin looked at the empty hall and the candles on the table, and felt that the atmosphere was wrong. She smiled and said, "It's usually difficult to book a reservation here."

"I didn't like being disturbed, so I asked the restaurant to cancel other people's reservations."

Aaron smiled and said, "It's only open to us today."

"You can do this with just one sentence. Your power is really huge."

Caitlin looked at him and couldn't help but said: "I really want to know if there is anything you can't do in this city."

"Of course there is."

Aaron looked at Caitlin and said with a smile: "For example, I have a woman who I love deeply, but I have never been able to get her love."

After hearing such straightforward words, Caitlin was slightly stunned, how could she not understand that he said this person was herself.

It turns out that he has not forgotten himself either.

Caitlin felt a little moved, raised her wine glass, looked at her and asked: "Do you need her to love you? You have so many women who love you."

"I thought it was okay."

Aaron smiled and said, "But when I saw her yesterday, I found that I still couldn't forget her."

"But she has forgotten about you."

Caitlin took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "I think it's good to stay in this state."

"Did you really forget?"

Aaron looked at Caitlin and asked with a smile: "Then why is she still single now? Hasn't she started a new relationship?"

It has been five years since the breakup, but Caitlin is still alone. She is 32 years old and has been living alone.

After hearing this, Caitlin was stunned. She slowly put down the knife and fork in her hand, her expression a little complicated.

"Catelyn."

Aaron looked at her and said seriously: "Let's start over!"
