*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 04:21 PM

it occurred to her vaguely that his spanish had been perfectly correct but for ONE letter. of course, he'd just kissed her so it occurred VERY VAGUELY.

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 04:31 PM

*Don just squeezed her a little tighter. He didn't want to let go.* I'm glad we got that sorted out Kya. Looks like we both were labouring under misconceptions.

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 04:57 PM

kya was a kite without a string and his "word of the day" vocabulary stuck her as being incredibly funny. She was just so relieved, the laughter just bubbled up.

Kya (between giggles) Yes, It was most sagacious of you to address our mutual discomforts in such a forthright manner, elucidating our misunderstandings, and facilitating speedy conclusions to our internal obstacles.

She stuck her tongue out at him through smiling lips and with an almost boneless ripple, wriggled free and did a few strokes away from him. She looked back with a glance that dared him to accept her verbal challenge ... or catch her... whatever.... she was too happy to care.

*The snow was falling softly, a soft breeze making the flakes dance along the walls of the cliffs. The sun was hidden behind the clouds, the sky looking overcast and gray.

Two bags dropped into the snow, making small puffs from where they landed. She sighed, and looked down at her watch. It was about mid-morning. She pulled the collar of her turtleneck up carefully, hissing slightly. She looked down in disdain. Two clenching hands slowly reached out, grabbing the handles. She winced, as she lifted them, and slowly climbed up the steps.*

~Everything's fine now, though...the debt has been repaid....~

*She took two bags into one hand, and slowly opened the door, stepping inside....*

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 06:42 PM

Don: Exactly. Better take a couple of deep breaths.

*He sank out of sight. Silence, and no movement could be seen in the water*

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 06:51 PM

kya didn't understand what he meant until he'd disaappeared.

kya: wha?... oh! .... (still not seeing where he went) ... oh....

sinking feeling as she took a deep, deep breath, she fought back the impulse to let it out and start humming the "Jaws" music....

kya tred water nervously and quickly took a second deep breath...

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 07:06 PM

*The silence in the pool stretched. One minute, two minutes. Don arrowed up from the bottom, and grabbed Kya's ankle to pull her down. He got her below the surface, and came up even with her face, a grin on his, and bubbles leaking out. He figured he'd timed it right, and she didn't have a lungful of air. Which gave him a perfect excuse to share....*

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 07:16 PM

kya was really being to worry she'd taken a deep breath four or five times over now and there still was no sign of him.

kya (internal, with her stomach beginning to knot) ... how long can he stay under anyways... it's been a long time...

kya: (swimming out a bit further to see if she can see him) ... Donnie?.... Don? Do--AH!

^^* SPOOLSH*^^

water rushing past. flooding her nose and her open mouth and a hand on her ankle. kya panicked and swallowed some water. She struggled to get back to the surface, but someone was holding her close. She felt someone pressing their lips to hers and air flooding through. If she'd been ready for it, it might have worked regardless of the water that had already flowed down her throat... but the bubbles went straight up to the surface....

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 07:25 PM

*Don pulled back, the grin still firmly fixed on his face. He wanted to see her expression when she realized what was happening. She was still clawing to get back to the surface, panic written across her features. Worse, her mouth was open, and there was no bubbles coming out. Don grabbed her and headed for the surface as fast as he could swim. They breached hard, and he pulled her towards the shallow end.* Kya? God, I'm sorry Kya, are you alright? Kya?

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 07:29 PM

AIR air on her face... but none going in! she breathed deeper and only choked harder on the water filling her throat. Things got more complicated when her body tried to expell it all and breath at the same time.

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 07:34 PM

*Don felt purchase under his feet, and waded up the incline as fast as he could go. He cleared the water, and put her down carefully, trying to get her to straighted out so he could roll her onto her stomach instead of her side. He had vague images left over from watching TV of pushing on her back to force the water out of her lungs. But she wasn't cooperating..* Please Kya... Just relax, I'm trying to help, I'm sorry...

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 07:39 PM

kya curled into a ball on the concrete and got herself onto her hands and knees. The fluids splattered as she threw up everything, wretching as her body forced out water and breakfast alike.

As the flow tapered off, she hung her haed breathing deeply with a bit of a rattle and coughing thickly from time to time.

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 07:46 PM

*Don pulled her hair out of the way as she vomited onto the floor.* God Kya, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry....

*Don knew he was babbling, but he couldn't seem to stop it. He was kicking himself. Way to go moron. You get the problems sorted out only to attempt to drown her. You are such an idiot...* One hand held her hair away from her face, while the other rested lightly on her back as he knelt beside her.*

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 07:54 PM

Kya slowly begin noticing things OTHER THAN the presence of air. Her throat burned... her lungs ached... she was shaking... someone was holding her hair... there was a hand on her back.

kya(internal) glad didn't puke in my hair... that hand... just pushing on me...

She sat up just to see if she could shift even the light weight of that hand off her back. The only thing she wanted to do right now was BREATHE without ANYTHING weighing on her. Stray drips from her sinuses rolled down the back of her throat as she changed positions. Her own racking cough called her attention to the other noises in the room.

kya: (wheezy, kinda thickly soupy) ...Donnie?...

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 07:59 PM

Don: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sor---Kya, Oh god, Kya are you all right? I didn't mean to...

*he got up long enough to grab her robe, and bring it over to her.*

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 08:04 PM

kya accepted the robe but just held it in her lap and shivered a bit.

kya: (eyes still a little squinty from the whole thing) 'm okay. 'm breathin' now...

she closes her eyes and focuses on that for a few seconds, catching her breath after speaking. She opens her opens her eyes and nods at him.

kya: 'm okay, Donnie. s'alright... (deep brething, some coughing as she makes things rattle) ... m' sorry. i puked on yer floor...

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 08:10 PM

*Don stopped dead for a second, then laughed kind of breathlessly* To hell with the floor Kya, I'll clean it up later. As long as you are OK...

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 08:16 PM

she shivered harder and blinked down at the robe in her hands.

kya(internal) how long have i been holding...
she put on the robe awkwardly in her kneeling position.
kya: warmer.... don... i'm fine... (she coughed thickly again and paled as her stomach rippled with some aftershocks) ...it's cold down here... and my mouth's all manky.... but i'm okay. can we go upstairs now? please?

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-01-2002, 08:22 PM

*Don nodded emphatically* I don't want you to get sick. *He moved towards, her and stopped suddenly, indecision stamped across his features. Do you want me to help, or have I done enough already? *The last was with a bitter undertone aimed at himself.*

*kyabetsu* · 12-01-2002, 08:29 PM

kya tried to stand on jelly-legs.

kya; help would be gra- (cough wretch -- she waves him back until it passes) ... okay. done. again. so yeah, help would be grand...
