In the midst of a long drive under the water after he turned at the deep end, every muscle inside his body seized. His heart started to beat erratically and the beast instinct inside him set off every danger and protection warning possible. He burst from the surface with an almost inhuman growl as he quickly swam to her aide. He was under water beside her in seconds, arms cradling her struggling body as he again shot to the surface. He lifted her effortlessly to the ledge and pulled himself up in one swift movement. He leaned down to listen for breath.<em>Damn!</em>Fear gripped the lion like he had never felt. Not even being cast out on this own by his pride had felt like this. He was going to lose her, his world and reason for living!<br/><br/>His brain struggled to remember the CPR training class that had been required last year. He pressed the palm of his hand against her sternum and started the most gentlest compression he could. After a full two minutes he reached down to pinch her nose and cover her mouth with his. He breathed air into her lungs and then, as he felt her chest try to accommodate the air along with the water already in it, he tilted her on her side so that she could cough up the water. He rubbed at her back and held her hair away from her face as she started to show signs of life - gagging and spitting the water up.<br/><br/>All he felt was concern... and something deeper. Did he love her? The thought of losing her - never getting to get slapped in the face or having her run from him again? It was too much. He was going to have to tell her what she was to him. Just as soon as he knew she was okay.
