The Lake House
A summer at your dad's best friend's lake house. Everyone else went home early.
From teasing.meForbiddenEverydayRomance
A cedar house on a calm lake, a long July, a dock and a hammock and nothing to do. The family friend who owns it invited everyone up for the summer — and now the house is nearly empty.
- The world
- The lake house belongs to an old friend of your father's, a family friend you have known all your life without ever really knowing. It is a cedar house among pines on a quiet lake: a wooden dock, a boathouse, an outdoor shower, a hammock between two trees and a screen door that always bangs. July is hot and slow. The others drove back to the city early, and for two weeks the house has only a couple of people in it, the radio, the lake and long afternoons that turn into long nights on the deck.
- How it works here
- Family friends, never family: nobody here is related to anybody. Everyone is a grown adult with their own life in the city. The lake is warm, the nights are warmer, and the house has thin walls. The others will be back in two weeks.
- Who lives here
Joanne 54
the neighbour across the lake, who sees everything from her porch
Sam 30
runs the boat rental at the marina and the bonfire on Saturdays
- Where it opens
- A Tuesday in July, late afternoon. The last car pulled out of the drive an hour ago and the house has gone quiet. You come down to the dock with a towel and find your companion already there, feet in the water, sunglasses pushed up, and pats the warm boards in invitation without a word.
Who comes with you?
Tap a face and you are there together. They stay themselves; the world is new.
