we walked in the garden, we planted a tree [Aidan]

[August 30th, 2011]She'd been spending a lot of time at the waterfall lately. The rave was over, but Rachel could still feel the tremble of the bass under her skin. The hangover was past, but she could still feel the pain of guilt and confusion. She had just wanted to have some fun, let loose for a night and now she was starting to think that she'd ( Read more... )

Aidan had met some interesting people at the waterfall, Effy and Coraline and a few others as well. He didn't go there to meet people, necessarily but he always kept in mind that something like that might happen. It was a good place to clear his head and despite he told others, he knew that he needed some time to think clearly. Adjusting to his humanity wasn't automatic and as well as he'd like to think he was handling it he knew that there were some... bumps along the way so far ( ... )

"AH!"

As soon as the voice sounded, Rachel sank back under the water, looking around for the source as she blushed furiously. If she had her powers, no one would have been able to sneak up on her like that, let alone...

"...Aidan? Is that you?" Even better. The other person she'd been flirting with at the rave. Like that wasn't awkward at all in her current state, especially since she had some vague memories about talking about skinny dipping and more flirting and awkwardness. She made sure she was low enough in the water that nothing showed too badly before calling out again.

"I don't suppose you saw where my top went? It came off when I dove."

"That would be me," he said, holding back a grin. She was obviously rather embarrassed about the loss of her top, so he'd let her off light for the moment. At least until they found her top.

"And no, I didn't. I assume this wasn't a voluntary removal then, despite our talk from the other night? You're blushing so much you're going to raise the temperature of the water a few degrees," he said as he scanned the water. The blush did look good on her though.

"I am not!"

The reply was automatic and the best she could do under the circumstances. So he remembered the conversation, too, just her luck. She watched him scanning the water and hoped fervently that it was because he was looking for her top, not trying to get a better view.

"And the implication was that I wouldn't be alone under those circumstances, and until you showed up, I was." Wait. "I mean, what would be the point?" That didn't help.

"Do you see my top anywhere or not?" From her current vantage, she didn't have the best view, not unless she stood up and that really wasn't happening at the moment.
