"Come in the water!" Arthur shouted at you from his waist deep spot in the ocean. You were relaxing on a bath towel on the beach. It was surprisingly empty today, which you didn't mind at all. You weren't a big fan of people. You shook your head from your spot and continued reading you book.
Arthur didn't seem to like that answer, so he came out of the water, and lightly jogged to where you were lounging. You looked up from your book, only to drop it as Arthur picked you up, and tossed you over his shoulder as he walked away. You let out a tiny yelp. "Arthur! Put me down this instant." Needless to say, he didn't comply. He got knee deep in the water before putting you down. "Why don't I ever see you in the water?" He asked. You looked away, slightly embarrassed. "I-uh…..I can't swim." You mumbled quietly. Arthur quirked an eyebrow, but other than that showed no response. You shyly looked up to meet his gaze. "It's stupid, I know. I've tried, and I just can't seem to get the hang of it. I sink every time and-"
"I could teach you." You looked up at him, bewildered. "What?"
"I could teach you." He repeated. "If you want." You looked around, and pondered this for a moment. You carefully weighed your options before deciding. "Erm….thank you. I would appreciate it." You looked back up at him to see his massive grin. "Well then." He put his hand on your lower back, and gestured his hand towards the water. He looked down at you. "Shall we?"
