Re: It gets Complicated.. {open ; male ; mature}

[Spritz]

Ethan raised an eyebrow, not fully trusting these animals. Kori pushed herself up off of the platform and left his side, and Ethan craned his neck, wondering where she was going. She quickly made her way over to a small room, slipping inside and closing the door. Alone out here with the animals, he gave the dolphin's head a slight pat and stood up. He waited in awkward silence for a few moments, before the squeek of the shed door made him jump.
Turning around, his eyebrow cocked slightly as Kori stepped out of the shed, wearing a small black bikini that didn't seem to cover enough.
His eyes were immedietly drawn to her tall, slender figure, though he wasn't necicarrily trying to look at her in that way. Blinking once, he raised an eyebrow as she awkwardly aproached him, before thrusting out her hand and showing him a pair of blue swim shorts. He frowned and cautiously took them in his fingers, cocking his head to one side. He nodded slightly and walked past her, stepping into the threshhold of the shed and closing the door behind him. Only then did he lean against the wall, a smile playing on his lips. Damn, she was attractive. He quickly stripped of his clothing, changing into the shorts without a problem. Pushing the door open, he held his clothes under his arm, the cool night air on his bare skin.

[Sammi]

Kori smiled shyly, watching Ethan walk over to the shed. She ran her light colored eyes over his silhoutted figure. When he closed the door, Kori twirled around, smiling. Sure, she had just met this guy, but she was already falling head over heels for him. When she heard the door of the shed open she turned around, and looked at Ethan with shining eyes.

She approached him slowly, and when she reached him she slowly held out her hands and ran them down his arms, holding his hands when she reached his palms. She gently tugged him back, walking backward as she pulled him forward, facing him the entire time and smiling. "Are you nervous?" She stopped walking when she reached the edge of the pool, her hands still in his.

{omg. That was weak}

[Spritz]

Kori turned brightly shining eyes on Ethan, before she slowly approached him. As she walked, her hips moved from side to side and Ethan's eyes were once again drawn to her figure. She reached him, before she held out her hands, placing them on his arms and running down until her hands fell into his.
A slight tremor worked its way over Ethan's tanned skin, and he gave her a slight smile as she started to pull him towards the pool. Walking along with her, he wasn't necicarrilly sure he wanted to jump into the pool with strange marine mammal's, but still...
Soon, they reached the pool's edge, and Kori stopped walking. The moonlight from above illuminated the pair's features with a soft silver light, the warm night breeze gently playing with the strands of their hair. Giving Kori a smile that let her know what he was feeling, he looked over her shoulder and into the deep pool.
"Uh, yeah."
(Same here, lol)

[Sammi]

Kori dropped Ethan's hands, and turned around. With her back facing him she slowly walked even closer to the water, and slowly she took a step down onto one of the stairs that was locared at the corner of the pool. She repeated her move a second time before she turned around, waist-deep in water, and smiled up at Ethan. She pulled her hair out of her face and into a pony tail, then reached out her hand for Ethan to grab. "Dont be, everythings fine." she insisted.

She waited for Ethan to reach her side patiently, a shy smile on her face all the while. The three dolphins swam around closer to Kori, the smallest one swam in circles qaround her, and budded its nose against Koris ankles. Kori giggled slightly and reached down, shooing the small dolphin away. It obeyed her and retreated to the deeper waters where it ad come from, and occasionally it poked its small grey nose out to see what Kori and Ethan were doing, the other two larger dolphins waited behind Kori, making soft clicking sounds as if they were talking to one another.

[Spritz]

When Kori stepped away from Ethan, he had a good mind to step away from the pool, away from the dolphins. Looking around anxiously, he was rather worried they would get caught, and Kori possibly loose her job. It was a beautiful evening, the moonlight helping to illumunate the pair, along with the slight lights that were dimly glowing around the exterior of the walls. This must have been the private pool, and Ethan's light blue eyes traveled to Kori as she stepped into the water.
A soft splashing noise could be heard, and she stepped down the steps and into the shallow end of the pool. She turned slightly, smiling up at Ethan before sweeping her hair back into a high ponytail, her long dark hair falling down her neck. Ethan cautiously stepped forward, before setting a foot on the top stair and slowly lowering himself into the water. He took her hand slightly, before jumping as he felt something smooth brush against his legs. Backpeddling, he dropped Kori's hand and stared into the water.

[Sammi]

Kori looked at Ethan, her eyes following himas he moved into the water. She smirked a little when she saw him jump, and couldnt help but break into a soft giggle. "It was just a dolphin, Ethan," she laughed, her eyes shimmering. She scooted closer to him, holding out her hand. She grabbed his hands and smiled,intertwining her fingers with his. A dolphin bumped against the back of her calf and she softly fell onto him, her face landing perfectly on his chest. She blushed a hot pink, and looked up at him.

"Errr..sorry.." she stepped away, dropping his hands and stepping back, rubbing her arm in an embarrassed manner, looking down at the water.

[Spritz]

Just a dolphin, right.
Ethan wondered if they kept any sharks here with the dolphins, and cautiously glanced to the deeper, darker side of the pool. He figured not, it would be too dangerous. Still, he wasn't all too fond of the dolphin's teeth and inwardly wondered if they ever bit or attacked anyone. Kori giggled slightly, and once again Ethan felt the animal's smooth flesh glide across his own legs, flinching slightly but not moving from his position. The luke-warm water lapped around their waists, the surface disturbed by their entrance. It reflected the dim lights from the walls, casting a slightly golden glow on the water. Ethan felt Kori shift slightly, and glanced over to his side. She had moved closer to him a bit, and she soon took his hands, lacing her fingers in his his.
Ethan wasn't sure what to say, or how to react to that. They had only met an hour ago, but she was looking into his eyes, and he blinked suddenly, turning his head away. He was seriously afraid he was about to blush, and pushed the feeling aside, barley saving himself from the humiliation. Suddenly, Kori tripped over something and fell into him, her hardly clad body pressing into his hard, bare chest. Ethan could distinctly feel her body's shape, and his cheeks flushed slightly as she picked herself up. She mumbled an apology, her face also flushed, and Ethan gave her a weak smile.

[Sammi]

Kori looked around, not really talking to Ethan. She turned her back to him, stepping forward on the shallow part of the pool. She looked down, into the dark depths and occasionally saw the silver flash of a dolphins tail beneaththe surface. She looked behind her, over at Ethan, and turned around.

She closed her eyes and lifted her arma over her head, counting to three, she then jumped, falling into the 20 foot deep pool. Once submerged, Kori opened her eyes, looking around as she sunk to the bottom. The three dolphins came swimming at her amd she smiled, patting each ones nose. The largest dolphin came up to her right before Kori could touch the bottom, and it pushed her up gently with its nose and slid beneath her.

Kori grabbed the dolphins flippers, riding it to the top, as it swam quickly to the surface of the water. As the two emerged from the water Kori took a deep breath and looked at Ethan. She laid on the dolphins back, the dolphin swimming around on the surface while she laid there staring.

"Come on..its fun. I wont let anything happen to you." She smiled shyly.

[Spritz]

Before Ethan exactly knew what was happening, Kori leaped out into the deep, dark water. She immedietly sumberged beneith its surface, and her slight form dissapeared from his view. He blinked once, his light blue eyes troubled. Walking forward cautiously, he suddenly tripped, falling into the deep water and going under. He knew how to swim quite well, and opened his eyes to see the slight form of Kori further under him. Something sleek brushed against his leg, and he ran his fingers over the smooth back of a dolphin that swam by, down to Kori.
It slid under her body, and the girl grabbed onto its fin, before riding it up to the surface. Ethan powerfully kicked upwards, righting himself in the water and taking a deep breath as soon as he emerged.
(EPIC fail.)

[Sammi]

{nonono, EPIC win}

Kori smiled at Ethan, noticing he was in the water with her, she signaled the dolphin she was riding on to go over to him, and it did as it was commanded, dragging the girl on her back. When Kori reached him she smiled, and the Dolphin had stopped, and floated next to Ethan.

Suddenly, a splash came from the far side of the pool as the two other dolphins jumped onto the air, underwater, they looked like silver streaks of light as they raced around in zig zags. Kori smirked, "They're playing." She looked at Ethan. Th dolphin she was grabbing hold of began to rumble, and a loud chirp came from its closed mouth. Before she could blink, a swirl of water popped up right behind her, and Korbynn lost grip of the dolphin as it dashed beneath the surface of the water and made a flip as it was being chased by the other two.

The force of the dolphins tail against her thigh sent Kori toward Ethan, and she grabbed onto his shoulders, her pegs wrapped around his waist as she tried to keep her head above the shrface, her eyes closed the whole time. When everything grew quiet and the laughing clicks of the dolphins could be heard beneath the softly flowing water, Korbynn opened her eyes, and saw that she was grabbing onto Ethan for support. She blushed, and looked down, but her wet hair did not cover her face like she wished it would. She looked back up, her blue eyes shimmering with embarrassment. "Um..hi?" She cringed a little, but managed to give Ethan an awkward and crooked smile.

[Spritz]

Ethan kicked his legs to stay afloat, the water lapping around his bare, toned chest as he did so. His honey brown hair was wet and fell into his brilliant blue eyes, making him raise a hand and brush it away so he could see. Kori was resting near him on one of the dolphin's backs, leasurley lying over the mammel's body. Suddenly, a round of shrill chirps erupted from the animals throat, and it bobbed its head in anticipation.
The dolphin suddenly leaped forward, making Kori loose her grip on its fin. As the animal dove beneith the surface of the water, the girl was flung towards Ethan. She fell harshly into his body, her legs instinctivly wrapping around his waist as she did so. Having to kick with his legs to keep the pair from falling below the surface of the water, he cleared his throat and looked down, his chin slightly brushing against the top of her head. The dolphins splashed and played behind the pair, leaping in and out of the water with ease. Their sleek bodies flashed slightly as the light hit their wet skin, before they dove back under and continued to chase eachother around the pool.
A few moments passed, and Kori was still pressed against Ethan's body. It wasn't the fact that they were close to one another, no. That wasn't the issue here... Kori's bikini wasn't doing much to cover her, and he wasn't sure he liked touching girls so close when they were hardly wearing anything. She eventually pushed herself away from him, her cheeks holding a pleasing tinge of pink.
At her words, Ethan burst into hearty laughter, his eyes twinkling with mischeif and humor. "Hey there!"

[Sammi]

When Kori saw his humor she smirked and stared at him, trying to give him a mean look, but it was no use. She sprung out into a laughing fit, and splashed water in Ethans face playfully. She ducked beneath the water, submerginng herself again. She swam underneath Ethans kicking feet, and appeared on the other side of him, and she swam toward the shallow part of the pool.

She lifted herself up to sit on the edge, keeping herself still chest deep in water. She smiled, lifting her knees up and tucking them against her chest, wrapping her hands over the top of her legs. She smiled at Ethan, and looked up into the dark sky. With the little light of the pool, you could see almost all the stars in the sky. Kori smiled, looking up at the twinkling stars.

[Spritz]

Kori attempted a mean look, but it wasn't working too well for her. She soon burst out into a joyous fit of laughter, and Ethan couldn't help but grin right along with it. His white teeth glinted softly in the dull light, his brilliant blue eyes twinkling with humor. Kori dove underwater, and Ethan felt her bare back hardly brush against the tips of his toes. Letting himself sink under the surface, he opened his eyes and ignored the salt in the water that was burning them. Blinking a few times, his eyes ajusted to the sudden darkness and he caught a flash of Kori's body, before she kicked up to the surface and clambored onto the ledge of the shallow end of the pool.
Ethan thrust his arms forward, moving quickly under the water. His lean muscles stretched each time he pushed forward, and soon he reached her. Swimming strongly towards the surface, he broke it and shook his head, his hair spiking up all over his head. Water dripped down his bare chest, and he took in a deep breath. He looked down to see Kori flash a quick smile at him, her knee's drawn up to her chest. She stared up at the sky, which in turn made Ethan look above him.
The black abyss was littered with tiny specks of silver, as if someone had spilled glitter on black paper. The stars shimmered and twinkled brilliantly, and he could easilly pick out a few of the common constelations. He wasn't sure why they were able to see the stars tonight, usually the city's lights were too bright to allow such beauty to play in the sky. Shaking his head slightly, his eyes reflected the stars. Turning his gaze back down to Kori's face, he gave her a gentle smile before moving so he was sitting next to her in the water.

[Sammi]

She looked over at Ethan as she heard and felt the water move as it was disturbed by Ethan moving next to her. She smiled softly at him, and looked back up into the stars, then trailed her eyes down to the glittering surface of the salt water pool, then further down into the black depths, where the dolphins backs shined silver streaks in the water as they swam around together.

She smirked, and looked at her toes as she wiggle them around beneath the surface. "I'm glad I met you tonight.." She looked at Ethan, and flashed him a soft smile. He was practically the only guy she knew that she wasn't afraid of. She felt as if she had known him her whole life. She punched herself in her head, she was falling too fast, but she smiked and looked at Ethan. She couldnt help it.

[Spritz]

Kori's light, gentle voice broke the silence, and Ethan turned his head slightly, drawing his eyes away from the sky. They settled on Kori's face, the girl gazing at him intently. A small smile played on her lips, and Ethan nodded. He turned his eyes back down to the water, the sleek dolphins moving beneith the surface. Silence settled over the pair for a few moments, Ethan in deep thought. His wet hair dripped slightly, the drops of water falling onto the back of his neck and rolling down his back. He ran a hand through his hair breifly, before turning to her and smiling. "Yeah, so am I. But we should probably head... back to... our houses?"

(OMG THAT WAS WEAK)

[Sammi]

(OMGGG . it was perfect)

Kori sighed, moving her lips to the side of her face. She looked down, and reached her hand to touch Ethans, her fingers moving around on the top of his hand. She looked at him, a shy smile played on her lips, her blue eyes shimmering. She wanted to stay with him, but she was scared to tell him that. "Yea...I guess we should, I bet my dog is missing me." she smirked a little, and stood up, looking into the night sky again.

[Spritz]

(BTW I LOVE YOUR SIG PICTURE!)
Ethan turned his head as he felt gentle fingers over his hand, and looked down to see Kori's fingers coressing him softly. Suprising even himself, he didn't pull away, nor stiffen as he usually did. When she finally spoke, he gave a weak nod and turned, clamboring to the shallower end of the pool. He turned and held his hand out for Kori to take, giving her a soft smile. "I bet he is. Plus, I have work tomarrow.
(I KEEP FAILING!)

[Sammi]

Kori smiled weakly, and took Ethans hand, climbing out of the pool and jogging to grab to towels from the shed. She handed one to Ethan, and ran hers along her legs and tried to dry her hair. She slipped her clothes on over her bathing suit, which was already practically dry. She looked at him, and smiled. "Yeah, me too.. well, could you take me home? If you dont mind. Its only a block from here, I just hate walking down the street at night." She flinched a little, her street was well lit at night, and her meighbors were nice, it was just the bar joint at the corner that she hated walking by.

{hehee thanks :3 No failure, tho .)

[Spritz]

Ethan pulled Kori up out of the water, before dropping her hand and making his way to the stairs. He stepped up them, before watching as Kori ran to the shed, dissapearing inside it for a few moments before re-emerging with a few towels in her arms. Moving over so he was near her, he grabbed a soft white towel and ran in through his hair, unknowingly making it spike up at all angles.
After drying himself off, he cleared his throat and stooped down, snatching his discarded clothing from near the shed's enterance. Drying his muscular torso off, he gave her a quick smile and stepped into the small room's dark interior. He changed back into his jeans and t-shirt within a few moments, and re-emerged from the shed quickly. Wringing out the wet trunks in his hands, he heard Kori speak once again and turned his head so he could look at her. He gave her a kind smile, nodding his head once.
"No problem, no. I would be happy too."

[Sammi]

Kori's eyes brightened and he heart lifted once again at the answer she wanted to hear. She smiled shyly, reaching out her hand and offering to take the swim trunks from Ethan. Once he handed them to her she hung them on a peg by the gate. She looked around and felt her pockets, making sure she had everything she came with.

She nodded once, and turned around to wave goodbye to her swimming dolphin friends, before she opened the gate with a clicking sound, and waited for Ethan to follow before she shut it with a bang, turning the keys and locking it.

She walked side by side with Ethan silently, walking back out of the aquarium and to his car. She climbed into the passenger seat, allowing him to drive this time, and she rested her elbow on the armrest. She gave Ethan the directions to her house, and when he pulled up infront of it she sighed and sat in the car, starkng down at her feet when Ethan turned off the car.

[Spritz]

(I'm skipping until he drives her home.)

When Ethan pulled up at the house, he wasn't sure if he should park the car, or keep it running. To park it meant that he wanted to stay, or something of the sort. He tapped his fingers on the wheel for a moment, but then noticed that Kori hadn't really moved from her current position. Figuring he should just go with the flow, he moved his hand down to the ignition and slid the key out of it. The trucks engine died down, coming to a gentle halt. Silence filled the air, and Ethan pursed his lips slightly. He snuck a sidelong glance at Kori, seeing her staring at her feet. He wasn't sure if she was about to get out or not, but cleared his throat. The sound was unusually loud in the silence, and he winced slightly. "This is.. your house?" He commented lamley, before his eyes fell.

[Sammi]

Kori looked at Ethan, and winced slightly. She unbuckled her seat belt, and reached for her small purse. She looked at Ethan, then to her big white house. It looked like a mansion compared to the average looking houses around it. "Yeah..." She moved her hand slowly to the door handle, she tapped it with her fingers a few times. She saw her Border Collie barking and pressing its face against the window. She smirked before she looked back at Ethan, and her face went a little more serious, almost sad. "So...I guess this is goodbye?" She cocked her head.

[Spritz]

Ethan's hair was slightly damp from the swim, his eyes looking ahead of him. Pursing his lips, he turned and looked at Kori, giving her a slight smile. "Yeah..." He wasn't used to dealing with situations like this, so had no idea what to say, or to do. His face was slightly troubled, and he looked away, at the house that his headlights were shining on. "It's... It's really big." A smile shone on his face, and he pushed her shoulder slightly with his fist. He looked around the truck, before he spotted a small notebook jammed between the two seats. Reaching down, he pulled it out and scribbled his number on one of the sheets. He tore it out, before handing it to Kori. "Here..."
(Gaa... ):)

[Sammi]

(that was good dont 'gaaaa' meee. xD)

Kori looked at Ethan, and her eyes lit up. She reached her hand out, taking the piece of paper. "Thanks. I'll call you." She smiled shyly, then slowly she got out of his truck, closing the door carefully. She began to walk toward her house, walking up the walkway, and then she looked back at him, a big smile on her face.

"This was fun. I'll see you." She smiled at him kindly, and turned around and entered her house.

[Spritz]

Ethan smiled gently, nodding slightly. "Alright. I'll look forward to it." He started the engine of the truck once again, turning the key in the ignition. Kori got out of the truck, starting back up the driveway. He pulled out of the driveway, giving her a slight wave before turning the wheel and starting down the road, back to his house.

(Sorry, I'll get better next time. I just need to think.)
