Alexander would smile as she remained underwater for a little bit, feeling her own face and seeing that even thought he dunked her, she was being cleansed of her recent hardships. His eyes then grazed upon the rest of her as her head was underwater, from her pert chest area and the steamed out lower body, he grinned a bit. Though as soon as she raised back up above the water's surface, he arched a brow slightly and made an almost cold and emotionless expression for a few moments until she spoke again. Her true voice was much nicer than before, less stricken by guilt and sadness and more of healing. Her mind, her desires, weren't just hers alone. His own desires were very much the same; he wanted to keep touching her, feeling her, teasing her.<br/><br/>Leaning down slightly, his right hand would reach over and gently grasp beneath her jaw to turn her head up and away slightly. The next thing she'd feel is the light prickling of his beard and the feeling of his soft lips brushing against her heated skin. His eyes closed partially as he took in her mixed scent of mint, pine and her natural odor. While his left remained along her waist, it seemed to have become extremely lax to the point that it rested in her lap against her pelvic area.<br/><br/>His head slowly moved up, the tip of his nose lightly brushing against her jaw line and to her ear lobe before lightly retracting from the closeness. Releasing her jaw as he did so and tilted his head to the side, a small smirk across his lips as he looked over her face.<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="color: #00FFBF">"I think this is the first time, in a long time, I've gotten my heart to beat this fast and heavily."</span></span>Alexander seemed to laugh a bit. If she looked at his chest at all, despite how built he was, it was concave and one could easily see the beating of his heart along the flesh. As if it was a baby bird pecking with its softened beak at its shell to get out.
