"The way to disappeared under the water, I thought sharks got to you," *he said with a mock serious expression.*

*She looked into his eyes, nodding very seriously.*
"Oh yes, there are some very dangerous sharks in the English Channel. I'm glad you saved me, otherwise who knows what would have become of me!" *She put a hand to her forehead, doing some sort of 'wilting flower' pose that was promptly knocked over by an incoming wave. She was dunked beneath the surface again, and rose sputtering some more.*
"I forgot how disgusting seawater tastes." *She laughed.*

*Chuck came out of the water just a few seconds after her. He smoothed his hair back and out of his face.*
"Chlorinated pool water's worse, in my opinion," *he said, remembering a certain illegal pool party he and his buddies had a few years ago.*

*She raised an eyebrow.*
"I won't even ask."
*She flopped back onto her back, letting the sun warm her front as she floated in the water. Unbeknownst to her, even the thick wool victorian bathing suit outlined the contours of her body--defined, but somehow soft and feminine.*

"Why not? It was fun. All the girl were wearing one those bikinis. Small ones too," *he enticed then swam towards her.*

*She lazily splashed water in his direction.*
"I meant the chlorine part, connard." *She said, but didn't mean it. In fact she looked quite happy with her eyes closed, floating in the ocean.*

*Without warning, he grabbed her by the ankle and dragged her under water with him.*

*She let out a noise that was somewhere between a laugh and a scream as she was pulled underwater, her fists flailing and feet kicking to try and make him let go.*

*Chuck let go but seized her by the waist instead. He was holding his breath but a smile was nevertheless on his lips ever as bubbles came through and rose to the top.*

*She couldn't see a thing, and there was a curious vacuum sensation in her stomach. She couldn't tell whether said sensation was from lack of air or being in such close proximity... or both. One last feeble blow was struck against his chest, but then she stopped struggling. And suddenly realized just how very close they were.*
*Again, she didn't move.*

*The smile slowly dissolved when he noticed that she had stopped moving. More bubbles, bigger now, continued to escape through his lips.*

*The water wasn't deep--it didn't take too much to push off the ground with one leg and break for air. She'd been taken by surprise, and as such, hadn't prepared to hold her breath. She gasped when she broke the surface, letting the air flood her lungs.*

*Chuck came through the surface right after her, laughing as she coughed and spluttered.*

"You know you really could warn a girl." *She said dryly, before going into a fit of chokes.*

"Where would the fun be in that?" *he said, running his hands over his face to get the salt water out of his eyes.*
