He smiled at the fact that she was so eager and happy to suggest they were more than friends. He wasn't sure what that could possibly mean though. He did have these strange feelings for her, despite their short time together. And yet, he acknowledged there was a lot to know. Did she like horses? What was her favorite color? What was her last name even? Could he ever call her Lana? Was she offended that he was spending so much time with her while she was undressed? He'd hoped she wasn't offended. Still, he found comfort in their hands being together, swinging through the water. It was nice, that despite the motions one of their arms would go through, their hands would still be bound together. He hoped that these actions might be a sign of the future. It was just crazy, but he enjoyed it anyway. Did anything else really matter when he was with her?<br/><br/>It was mid-thought that their hands broke apart. He was hoping that for sure wasn't a sign of the future. But before he even had time to frown or speak, she'd taken his hand once more and took off with him. She swam at speeds faster than he'd yet learned to, but he flowed through the water with her help. It was actually nice, to feel the vibes of the ocean all around him. It took some time, but it felt so short. He was just glad to still be in her company. Things could have gone south and he was just happy that he could still smile at the situation at hand. She thought they were more than friends. He was happy. Things were good.<br/><br/>Eventually they rose together, Dimitri could see dim lights in the distance, he was surprised they'd gone so far. But it was nice. No signs of life in sight. He'd normally viewed life as a precious thing that should always be taken with care, but at the moment, the only living thing he wanted around him was Alannah. She gazed at the stars and he followed her example. The moon wasn't his favorite thing, considering what he knew about Artemis. But the stars were different, he hadn't seen stars like this since home, where they hardly even used light bulbs. Yet, as she gazed up, he found himself looking down at her instead. The stars were beautiful and all, but they still couldn't deter his sight from her. She was more beautiful. He willed the water to hold them up as he put his free hand on the side of her neck. He was still so new to kissing, he couldn't help but gently put his lips against hers like last time.
