Flinches at the water hitting his face, then playfully splashing water at her.
"Oh? Whos your brother"
He said laughing as he splashed the water.

Beatriz makes a face. "Andre Star. He works with my father. He doesn't really like me," she explains, shrugging.

"Aw, how sad… Well, do you have any other siblings?"
He says looking at a fish swimming by.

"Yeah, my other brother, Caden," she told him. "What about you? Any siblings?"

"N-No… I've been an only child."
He runs his hand in the water, the waves washing over them. The water was almost as clear as newly cleaned windows.
"Although…they say that the only child gets spoiled. But my parents were far to rich to deal with me."
He says with a smile as if he wasn't saying something sad.

"Pfft, I feel you. I barely even see my parents. Plus, with my siblings, my parents are always otherwise preoccupied," she told him with an eye roll.

"Yeah… I wonder what it's like to have siblings"
He mumbled to himself, rather loudly though. Turning around, and diving deeper into the water, he was never very fond of the water until he was in it. He felt like he was free… Kind if like he was flying. He felt like a little kid think about it like that.

The sand is soft, water lapping at his feet as Maverick watches everyone else play in the water. He’s sitting close to the bridge CC had found, a fairly secluded area. Their laughs ring to his ears. He’s pulled back, to when… no, it would not do to dwell on the past. He can still remember the water surrounding him, though, suffocating and effectively trapping him from air. Cold liquid bathes up to his knees, a stark reminder of the present. The tide was rising. His green eyes dart around, searching for a certain girl.

CC looks around, her over-shirt now in her hands. She felt a little weird being out and about in this type of clothes, this is the first time she's worn this bathing suit. It was cute, all white with daisies on it. Two-piece, strapless and frilly, straps connecting the top and the bottom in the design of an X, with the daisies painted all over. She saw it and she just had to buy it. But she felt a little weird in it. Looking around she spotted Maverick, running up to him, smiling and standing right in front of him. Her hair was perfect with the outfit, along with her eyes.
"You gonna come in?"
She says holding a hand out to him.

Dumbly, Maverick shook his head. “I’m afraid of water, remember?” He gulps, daring, “You look… good.” A smirk brushes his lips, as his eyes trail over the design. “Of course there’s flowers, only you, CC, only you,” he mutters, teasingly.

"Yeah… I wonder what it's like to have siblings"
He mumbled to himself, rather loudly though. Turning around, and diving deeper into the water, he was never very fond of the water until he was in it. He felt like he was free… Kind if like he was flying. He felt like a little kid think about it like that.

Blinking, Beatriz shrugged and slid smoothly into the water behind him, looking around at all the sea life as she sawm farther towards the bottom. This was a strange experience, very different from the pool where she used to have her swimming lessons. BUt, in an odd way, it was fascinating. Marine biology had always interested her, and seeing it up close was possibly the most amazing thing she'd ever seen.

CC laughed a little and again doing a weird dramatic pose, which wasn't actually that bad… But she thought it was, therefore she did it.
"Ha! Only me?"
She says like she's challenging him, standing up straight she puts her hands on her hips,
"Yeah… I was the only one to order this."
She laughs again and sits down in front of him. She knew, that if Maverick was scared of water…there had to be a reason. And she wasn't going to pry.
"Will you go out into the water if I'm by your side?"
She says softly to him, suddenly realizing how weird that sounded.

Ryuu turned around underwater to see Bee following him. His golden hair floating in the water, his blue eyes lit up even more. His freckled cheeks puffed out, trying to smile. He wanted to grab her hand and swim in this beautiful place forever. If only he could breathe.
Pushing himself up, gasping for air, then looking down at Beatriz.

Frowning slightly, Beatriz reluctantly follows Ryuu up to the surface. "I take it you like to swim?"

He was going to deny the offer, he really was, but her hopeful eyes and CC… Maverick couldn’t resist her. He wanted to be the source of her happiness. “I won’t swim,” he cautions, “so we can’t go deeper than around five foot…”

Ryuu laughs a little then smiles brightly at her.
"N-No actually. But I've never swum in actual ocean water! The salt really DOES hurt your eyes!"
He says happily, laughing through the tears.
"So the answer to your question… Is only in the ocean!"
He laughs a little bit more before taking a breath and going back under.

CCS face brightened up, quickly standing to her feet and grabbing his hand pulling him towards the water. The sand flying with every step, the cold water rushing over their feet. Her white hair, silver in the sun, dancing with the wind.
"Ya know! I didn't expect it to work so well!"
She says to Maverick, laughing through the words. They stopped when the water was up to right below her shoulders. She forgot how short she actually was. Most of her hair in the water, flowing in the tiny current. A few fish swimming around.
"Isn't this amazing!"
She said through a big stupid smile. She really hoped Maverick would have a good time.

Throwing up her hands in exasperation, Beatriz follows him. It'd be nice to have an actual conversation but alright, she thinks to herself as she rests on the seafloor, watching the little fish as her hair floats above her head. Smiling, she remembers when she used to think she was a mermaid because she could hold her breath for so long and her hair floated underwater. Admittedly, it is still fun to see.

Maverick’s entire form contorted simply at the feeling of being surrounded, but his vision honed in on CC’s smile. A tentative one of his own grows on his face. “I suppose,” he agreed, ignoring the fact that all of his clothes would now be soaked.

Ryuu turns around, watching Beatriz rest on the floor. Her hair floating around her head, she was gorgeous. Swimming up to her, he laid on the floor facing her. His elbows on the floor, his hands on his chin smiling, the girl in front of his was breathtaking. Literally… Ryuu got so caught up in how gorgeous she was he forgot not to breathe. Splashing up for air, laughing a little.
wow

CC watches a smile form on his face, butterflies in her stomach started to swirl. Diving underwater, just sitting there, CC held his hand. Gently, her skin was soft, just like her smile. Her hair, now completely wet, sitting on the floor underwater. Waiting for Maverick to come down to.

Beatriz lay on the ground for a moment, exasperated. Then she quickly followed him up, pushing the hair that had gone directly in her face. "Augh, I can't see - " she laughed, rubbing her eyes.

Ryuu again forgot he couldn't open his eyes under the water. But it was definitely worth it, seeing her. His hand gently tucking strands of wet hair behind her ear, looking into her eyes.
goodness you're so pretty
He thinks to himself as the cold waves lap against his bare skin. Forgetting about him being shirtless, or the salt water in his eyes, or the fact that he almost died. He was focused on her.
"Do you… Like the ocean?"
He says calmly. He thought it was about time he tried to have an actual conversation with her.

Looking up at him, Beatriz nods slowly. "It's nice. The rest of the world sort of gets left behind."

"Yeah, that is nice… I just wish I could breathe, and I don't particularly like my eyes burning."
He laughs a little, ruffling his hair a little. Is was slicked back, which he hates. He liked it to be flowy with a hint of messiness.
"So….what's your favorite color?"
He asks, but again, realizing that normal people don't ask that.
"Ah sorry… That was weird…."

CC watches a smile form on his face, butterflies in her stomach started to swirl. Diving underwater, just sitting there, CC held his hand. Gently, her skin was soft, just like her smile. Her hair, now completely wet, sitting on the floor underwater. Waiting for Maverick to come down to.

Beatriz tilts her head down with a little laugh. "Erm, sort of a blue-ish green? Sort of like this water, actually, but - oh, have you ever been to Hawaii? The bay there is exactly the right color."
