So it covers your whole face..." </em>, he reached out to her with his free hand, not touching her face but his large, open hand all but concealed her beautiful features and momentarily moved downward to her throat before drawing it back.<em>"So from forehead to neck...you're covered and it suctions right on because of your breathing..."</em>, he was looking at her...but she could see his eyes go a bit distant...looking at her but not seeing her.<em>"So you have it on...and the fire nearby is roaring and the wind and heat is enough to push you over...and all you can hear is your breathing while you try to tighten the straps as quickly as you can because once it seals...you really can't breathe.  You need to secure everything before you turn on your bottle of air because you don't want to waste it.  You'll need every second of it."</em>He shook his head slightly...<em>"So you get it on...and the first few breaths you take are hot and smell like rubber and taste like dirt and soot and every time...every time there's a little flare of panic."</em><br/><br/>His eyes came back to her...and he cleared his throat, not smiling...<em>"So you turn your bottle on and cold, clean oxygen comes rushing into your mask and it's just...everything is going to be alright.  Get back to work." </em>, he shook his head slightly.<em>"That's you.  You're oxygen."</em>He paused, his lips parting slightly as he realized all that he just said...pressing his lips together and shook his head slightly.<em>"I just...I mean talking to you is like breathing pure oxygen."</em>Motioning with his free hand...<em>"I mean that it's just nice...to stop feeling stressed and anxious and just...talk to you.  You know...talk to someone I mean that is as easy to talk to you as..."</em><br/><br/>He stopped talking...no longer laying down and sitting up once more...having not wanted to get so...exposed.  He nodded his head slightly as he looked out to the sunrise once more and turning to give her a smile.<em>"You're just nice to be around.  I'm sure the crew had a great day in the paddleboats with you."</em>
