DaveDeHaas

While she was wildly moving about the still pool water Dave realized she didn’t have much experience with large bodies of water. While they were both standing at the shallow end of the pool he thought back at how scared he was when he realized she fell in the pool and didn’t know how to swimm while he was away from her. He was so scared for her that he dreaded to imagine how terrified she must’ve been. And her eyes showed the amount of fear in her eyes and he could feel it in the bumps on the skin of her shoulder where he touched her and the shaky cold breaths she was letting out. However he also noticed how her eyes mellowed out as she gazed at him and realized she was now safe in his arms. Looking at her and although she was still shivering and cold and a bit frightened, he just wanted to embrace her in any way. As the pool boy came with a big white towel, Dave wrapped it arround her shoulders and let it drop down to cover her whole body. The pool boy made a noise to get their attention so they know he wants to say or ask something. Dave looked at him as he asked both of them something. “Vocês precisam de roupas novas?” Dave shrugged, not knowing the languages. He chimed in again, realizing they didn’t understand him. “Não faz mal! Vou trazer roupões de banho. Qual é a pior coisa que pode acontecer?” He said while he trailed off somewhere in the distance. Dave turned his attention to her and started rubbing her shoulders where the towel was. “Friction helps keep you warm. I should’ve asked the pool boy to bring you some clothes or something like that.” As he gazed at her eyes and wet hair, he couldn’t help himself but tuck a wet escaped piece and placed it away from her face. Along the way he couldn’t help but cup her face with the same hand. Looking at her lip that now seemed to quiver more with cold than with fear and her eyes gazing at him so sweetly he wanted nothing more than to close the distance between them. Unknowingly he was very slowly making the distance between them shorter, but he wouldn’t let desire take him all the way there. He thought if he kissed her now he’d be taking advantage of the fact she was frightened and where she couldnt’ think clearly. If he kissed her when she was vulnerable like this, he’d know there’d be no future with her. It didn’t concern him that he already didn’t want to risk not having a future with this girl he just met half an hour ago, who he knows almost nothing about, more than he wants to risk not having a future with his current girlfriend. When she offered him a shaky smile and said “Guess you’re not just a movie star after all… You’re a hero too.” The smile she gave him, although it was shaky due to the coldness she felt from her soaking clothing and body being hit by the cool night air, it still warmed his heart. He wanted to make that smile linger. Although both of them were soaking wet at night and freezing to the bone, he felt a bit warmer just from the warmth of being close to her. He didn’t respond, just looked at her lips with desire, his breath shaking with it. His gaze rose to her eyes to avoid inching any closer to her lips. And then suddenly she inched towards him, which was difficult because he is quite tall, so he knew it wasn’t a coincidence. He made it easier for her to reach him by leaning down a little. The cloer she moved to him and the closers their lips were to each other, the heat grew, almost to the point she was warm enough to let go of the towel which was supposed to keep her warm. He dropped his face down, waiting for her to stop it, thinkin she couldn’t possibly want this and that any second she will come to her senses and remind him she is a married woman. But she never did and he hoped she wasn’t that mean of a tease to stop him just in the last second. When their lips were almost a lash apart, he could feel the breath she took before speaking, and he felt the words would be ‘What do you think you’re doing?’ but to his surprise it was more positive. “Thank you…” He took a shaky breath realizing his desire was about to become a reality. Although this desire was brand new as of a minute ago, it burned with the passion of a thousand suns. " … for saving me." He didn’t want to wait any longer so he closed the distance between them. Although she was actually very tall for the women he meets often, kissing her proved to be a challange purely because of his height, so he took hold of her hips and hoisted her up, holding her as they kissed. The towel was now completely on the floor and neither cared enough to notice it or the freezing night air. Before when Dave looked at Ravi’s clothing he thought they were just short of too revealing, and yet looked almost elegant on her. Now he thought it was too much fabric between them. He started to add more fervor to the kiss, making it linger and be passionate and fiery at the same time.

@Jass - If she puts her legs around his waist now that he’s holding her up, that would be a sight for Ezra to come upon
@eunoia - either Ezra or Helen will do, can’t wait for the drama
