Long day [OPEN]

[kaitlyn]

Kaitlyn laughed as Arielle splashed her as she ran through the water. Mustering up confidence, she ran in and dove as soon as the water was deep enough, sputtering as she resurface. It was cold, but nothing a little swimming around couldn't fix. She dived back under to the bottom and looked around. The Lake was so pretty. Resurfacing, she looked around for Arielle, noticing Joe was still on the shore.

[Joseph Quinones Jr.]

I watched the girls running and having fun and decided that I wanted to join them. I changed quickly into my diving shorts and ran to catch up with them.

[kaitlyn]

Kaitlyn smiled as Joe finally got in the water with them. She laughed and swam over to Arielle, splashing her with water a bit. "Your boy, or... whatever he is to you, has joined us." she said.

[Arielle Sands]

Arielle laughed for no apparent reason at all. She just felt like letting go of all of her worries and enjoying herself right now. She had been forced to be too proper for her own good all of her life and now she just wanted to be herself, not Arielle Marie Sands, the nice polite little girl everyone at home saw, but Arie, the free spirited fun loving person she really was. As Kaitlyn and Joe approached her she smiled and splashed them both with the cool water.

”He is a friend.” Arielle said to Kaitlyn before splashing her again.

[Joseph Quinones Jr.]

I tried not to get too close to Arie so that I didn't discomfort, it was going to take a few weeks to fix the relationship that I had screwed up. I wanted to be with Arie, but I moved to fast every time I was in close proximity for a long time.

[kaitlyn]

Kaitlyn smiled and decided to keep her thoughts to herself - that it was completely obvious that Joe wanted more than just friendship. "Alright" she said, splashing Arielle back. She turned and somehow managed to jump on Joe's back to push him under the water. She laughed and swam away.

[Joseph Quinones Jr.]

I felt myself go underwater and laughed. I swam underwater for some way, visiting my many coves of multicolored coral, totally forgetting about the other. The sparkling coral consumed my every thought and vision, It was a beautiful sight.

[Arielle Sands]

Arielle was swimming over towards Kaitlyn when something else caught her eye. She smiled and swam right past Kaitlyn and right to the shore. She got out of the water and walked up to a tall tree that stood right at the water’s edge. There was an old rope hanging down from one of the edges. She held onto it and gave it a tough tug. It seemed sturdy enough. She tossed it up onto one of the branches on the tree and climbed up to that branch herself. She held onto the rope and put her foot into the small loop that was at the bottom of the rope. She hopped off of the branch and swung out, above the water. When the rope was as far out from the tree as it could get she let go and fell to the water below her.

Kaitlyn watched as Arielle got up on a the tree and swung off. Deciding to do it herself, she swam over to the shore and climbed the tree. Swinging off the rope, she screamed and let go, letting herself fall into the cool water.

[Arielle Sands]

Arielle shileded herself from the water that splashed up as Kaitlyn hit the water. She laughed and splashed Kaitlyn as Kaitlyn resurfaced. Arielle smiled and swam away. She looked around and noticed that Joe had seemed to have dissapeared. She shrugged her shoulders, figuring he would show up eventually.

[kaitlyn]

Kaitlyn laughed as Arielle splashed her, and wiped her hair out of her face. Instead of chasing after Arielle, she lay on her back, content with floating for now. Kaity closed her eyes, letting the sun beat upon her face, and started humming a tune.
