Chapter 2: Her dream, his nightmare...her nightmare his dream
I climbed out of the water and onto a nearby rock next to Merida. She was squeezing the water out of her crazy red curls and I pulled an apple out of the pocket in my dress. "Wont that be a little salty?" Merida asked as she continued to fix her hair. I shrug as I take off the boys jacket and lays it down next to me so it can dry. "I don't care really." I smiled as I took a bite out of my apple and spot Sinbad's boat coming towards us. I laugh as I see a boy without a jacket leaning over the railing of the ship. "Looks like somebody wants his jacket back. Are you going to give it?" Merida raised an eyebrow as I finished the small apple and take a sling shot out of my pocket. "Not a chance." I replied putting the apple core into the sling shot, pulling back, and letting go. I put my hand up so I could watch it sail up into the sky...and hit Rath in the head. He fell from his perch and into his ropes. Even from here I could hear him cursing at me.
I laugh and pull the now dry jacket back onto my shoulder. "Ready for another swim?" I ask Merida just as Sinbad calls out to me "Victoria! Come on you know how I hate to play chase the two princesses." I raise my eyebrow as Merida eyes glow with mischief. "Lets do it!" I laugh as my friend jumps up and down with excitement. Merida jumped into the water as i turned and saluted to Jim before doing a back flip into the water. Just to show off a little...or a lot. I sigh as the water engulfs me like a nice soft blanket. I look up to see Merida already taunting Sinbad. I swim up just in time to see Jim dive into the water. oh no, he's messing up the game!
I slide back under the water and swim down as deep as i could. Already it was hard to breath down here! I close my eyes as tight as i could as i curl up into the smallest ball i could become. Hopefully...he wont see me and wont mess up the chase game.
But i felt a hand grab me by the shoulder and turn me around. I meet a pair of gorgeous gray eyes, as my breath slips out of me. I cover my mouth but it was to late, my bubble of air was gone. I watched as it starts to float up. Oh no! That was all the air I had! Suddenly I was scrambling through the water to get to the top. But I knew I would never reach the top in time. Suddenly a pair of arms circled around my waist and pull me up. I look over just in time to see Jim before bright lights blinded me.
Jim:
Jim felt his heart stop as Victoria turned to him. Her dark chocolate eyes engulfed him making him warm under the cold water. She opens her mouth to let out a scream just as a bubble of air came from her lips. She slaps a hand across her mouth, but she was too late. Suddenly her eyes were filled with fear as her arms circled through the water. That was all she had to breath...she wont make it to the top in time! Jim quickly swam after Victoria as he arms circled around her small waist. Just as they reached the edge of the water world Victoria held onto Jim tightly.
Jim pushed her up so she could get the air first before he surfaced. Her knees rested on his shoulders as she fell back against the surface of the water. Jim watched with awe as her mouth opened so she could greedily suck in all the air her body could hold. Jim's jacket clung to her as she closed her eyes and lets out a sigh of relief. "Thank you..." she mumbled under her breath as she slips upright but wraps her arm around Jim.
"Are you alright now princess?' Jim watches the youngest princess as she continues to breath slowly. "I still feel a little weak, can you take me over to that rock please?" Jim was taken back at her manners. If she was some sort of princess theif, why did she have manners? Jim moved Victoria till she was cling to his back and his arms were free. He slowly swam to the nearest rock that was big enough for her to sit on. Jim held onto the rock tightly as he helped the weak princess onto the rock. Jim glanced over to see the red head still messing around with his dad. To busy to even realize that her friend was no longer by her side. Jim looked back to see the young princess struggling to stand.
Jim slipped his around around her slim shoulders helping her stand. Even though she was leaning against him her legs still collapsed under her. "Your acting like a land lover getting sea sick for the first time." Jim teased her as he hops to another rock pulling her along with him. 'Well, I am always in the water so I don't think that is possible Jim." Jim looked at Victoria with shock but kept his mouth shut. Who would have though that a princess who could pick pocket his dad could be so weak and in need of help.
Victoria:
I hate to have him see me in my weakest state. Well, I hate to have anybody see me this weak. But...if he was there I might have actually died. So in a way, I was glad that he was there. I never went that deep, so lets say I was playing with fire. I clung to Jim as we slowly stumbled arcross the rocks that were scattered around the lagoon till we came to the soft sand. My legs were as weak as the ribbons that kept my sisters Rachel's hair up. I finally let go of Jim and fall onto the soft comforting sand. "You are diffently a land lover." Jim said as he lays beside me putting his arms behind his head.
"I am not...besides has that ever happened to you?" I ask as I turn to look at Jim. He smiles at me before running a hand through his brown hair, is it as soft as it looks? "Yes actually, when I went solar surfing for the first time. It took me a while before I could walk normally." I nod "Oh, wait,wait,wait. what is Solar? what is surfing? what is solar surfing?" Jim looks at me before he burst out laughing, holding his stomach. Anger boils inside of me as I sit up getting ready to crawl my way back to the castle. Jim must had realized what I was doing because he grabs my hand still laughing. "Wait, please, ill explain...and stop laughing." I let out a little huff as if it annoyed me and lay back down
Jim chuckles as he continued to hold onto my hand. His hands were rough and I could tell he did some hard things, but they were still a comforting warmth. "Solar is anything having to do with the sun. Surfing as we are talking about it, is a fun thing to do to me. Solar surfing is surfing that includes solar power." I let this information sink into my brain. "That's so cool." I found myself saying looking back up into Jim's eyes. "Would you like a ride?" Jim asks me while a evil smile creaks onto his face making me shiver. "Victoria!" My mother voice calls and I moan. Not now! I was about to have some fun! "Maybe later then, i'll see you later princess." Jim stood bowing to me before he walked into the water and disappears under the blue water. Just as my mother leads me away I look back to see a boy leaning against the flag pole of the ship. We would see each other soon
Jim: she still has my jacket!
