"Hmmmmbh-nnnnngh"
I moaned as I stretched out my back, raising my hands as high as I could. I quickly placed them in front of me though, when the wind decide to be a little perv and show the whole sea what I'm wearing under my dress.
I felt my face burn when I saw a few men on a fishing boat either: whistle and shout a few comments, or turn the other way, holding their noses.
'I should've wore my bathing suit' I thought miserably.
I would've if it wasn't for the meeting today, I was told that it was serious and it might infect our future badly.
My boss, Mr. Makarov, was on a vocation for a month in Maui, but it didn't even last for three days. Once Mr. Makarov got off that plane, he immediately called the company, saying it was an emergency and that we need to get our behinds in Maui before this week ends. Some of my co-workers couldn't go because of money issues or they have a family they can't leave, so all of the superiors, or what we like to call them, S-class, needed to go and take our place.
Sadly I'm not one of them, but I wish I was and at the same time, I'm scared to become one of them. There's a rumor going around that the S-class is full of scary people, and if you make one wrong move around them, you'll be fired before you could blink.
"Lu-chan. Luu-chan~."
Hearing my nick name, I turn to the direction of the only person who calls me that. Levy ran across the sand and dove at me, pushing us both into the water. I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to grab as much oxygen as I could, but instead a gush a salty water filled my lungs.
I felt some weak and small limbs circle around my neck, and the thought of me and Levy drowning filled my thoughts. Before I could even think about coming up for air, I felt Levy being pulled away from me, then a string pair of warm arms grabbed me from behind and pulled me up to the surface.
"Oh god, Lu-chan, I'm so sorry." I heard Levy cry.
I wanted to tell her that I was okay, but I can't speak, I couldn't move my mouth, then I realized something, I couldn't move at all. I want to kick, scream, bite, laugh, puke, I want to do something, anything, to prove that I was still conscious, but I couldn't.
I started to panic, in my mind of course, but stopped when I felt myself being pushed up from the water and into a much bigger, but colder pair of arms.
"Is she okay?"
Levy's voice cracked, she sounded like she was about to cry, or was she already crying.
"No"
A simple, cold less reply, from a rough, yet calm voice.
WHAT. THE. HELL.
"WHAT"
I heard Levy squeak. I was laid down on the hot, itching sand, from which I was just standing on just seconds ago, watching the sun set. I heard a splash coming from the ocean and sounds of feet stepping onto sand followed. Heavy breaths came closer and I felt the same type of heat from the arms of the man who carried me out of the water, engulf me.
"She's not breathing, crap"
The other man's voice said. Anyone would be scared after hearing that, but the fact that this man's voice sounded really closes, as in two inches away type of closeness, took over my thoughts, and left no room for me to think about dying.
"I'm so sorry, it's all my fault. My foot slipped, I didn't know the water was going to be that deep"
I was starting to feel dizzy and my lungs started to burn, actually, they must have been burning for a while, I just didn't realize it in till now. Everything felt numb to me, but when I felt something pound on my stomach, I was in need of coughing.
"Come on"
I heard the warm man hiss through his teeth, and just then, as I was about to slip into the cold, black darkness, I felt a pair of warm lips cover my own, and the water inside me was pushed out from the air he kissed into me.
I laid on my side, as I coughed up a storm. My right hand was immediately taken by two small, shaking hands.
"Thank goodness you're okay. Thank you so much,"
Levy thanked the two men. I laid on my back as I tried to regain my breath, and when the wind nipped at my face, I realized how cold I was.
Blue and pink hair came to view when I slowly opened my eyes. The sky was getting dark and the light post next to us turned on, blurring my vision and making me close my eyes again.
"Lu-chan"
I heard Levy gasp, when I tried to get up, but miserably felled back down on my back.
"Here, let me help. We need to get you back to the hotel"
The same two strong, warm arms picked me up bridle style, and started carrying me back to the hotel. The warmth of this man was so cozy, I couldn't help but want to snuggle deeper into it.
I heard him chuckle quietly.
"Go tell everyone that we found her and that she's okay"
My warm man whispered to the Levy and the other man.
"Come on shrimp. We need to get your ankle fixed, too"
"Wait- hey, I can- you don't have- I can walk on my- ouch"
"Idiot, just stay still and be quiet, your screeching is hurting my ears"
"Then put me down"
"We need to get back to the hotel fast, and with your ankle, all you're going to do is slow us down"
There was a moment of silence and I felt my warm man walk a little faster, like he was trying to get away from something.
"YOU MORON"
There was a crashing sound behind us, and I could swore I heard cursing, but the man carrying me already made some distance between us and them for me to fully make out what their saying.
After a while, I was too tired to care anymore, and snuggled back into the warmth of the man, his wet clothes cooled my head. I felt him stiffen, but relaxed and carried on with the walk back.
"Damn it, really"
He said under his breath, and I really wanted to say something, but I wasn't able to when the darkness finally took over me.
