A Little Encouragement

“Goddess, this is amazing!”

 

He grinned down at her.

 

“I knew you’d like it.”

 

“I do, I love- What are you doing?” She exclaimed quickly averting her gaze from his body as he stripped down to his boxes.

 

“What does it look like I’m doing?” He chuckled. “I’m going in.”

 

“But-“

 

Her reply was cut off by a big splash as he jumped off the edge of a boulder to the crystal waters below.

 

“Jeff! Jeff!” She shrieked when he didn’t surface straight away. She inched closer to the edge and peered over the side.

 

“By golly you scared me,” She called down when she spotted him floating on his back, his eyes shining as he grinned up at her.

 

“Come join me.”

 

“No.”

 

“Why not?”

 

“I… can’t.”

 

“Don’t tell me you’re scared of a little water.” He teased.

 

“Of course not!”

 

“Then come in.”

 

“I can’t… I can’t swim.”

 

“You’re joshing me,”

 

“No, I wouldn’t… josh… you.”

 

He paddled closer to the side.

 

“Come in, I wont let you go under Willow.”

 

His eyes pierced her all traces of his previous teasing gone as he stared up at her.

 

“Do you trust me?” He asked.

 

She hesitated, but then her resolve face came into view and she nodded.

 

“Yes, I trust you.”

 

“Well?”

 

“Okay.”

 

She stripped down to her bra and undies and leaped gracefully off the same boulder Jeff had, her head immediately popping up out of the water.

 

“Jeff! Jeff!” She sputtered her arms clawing for anything to hold on to.

 

“I’m here, I’m here,”

 

She felt his arms seize her around the waist.

 

“I’ve got you.” He said.

 

“Don’t let go,” Her arms snaked around his neck, her legs around his middle.

 

He grinned.

 

“Never.”
