Love under the sea
Chp2: Reaching out a hand.
Aqualad had searched everywhere and had no luck. Aquamarine was no where to be found. Then he saw a dolphin run pass and decided to follow it.
It seemed to be heading towards a lagoon he had missed somehow. There he saw some kind of cave and her heard some soft music. The dolphin made some kind of noise. The music stopped and Aquamarine came out.
She saw him and stopped. They stared at each other. Finally, Aqua lad made a motion to go to the surface.
When they did, Aqua lad was the first to speak " so; you live somewhere around here?"
" I live in the cave in the lagoon." She answered shyly.
" Can I see?"
" Sure." She said and dove under with Aqualad on her heels.
They swam under a big rock and came upon a small cave. It had only two exits. Underwater and a large hole up top where light can shine through and where oxygen and light could enter. The glow of the moonlight made things fairly visible. There was a bed in the corner and a pile of stuff. He couldn't quite make out what it was in the pile but he could see a silver Flute.
" You play an Instrument?"
Aquamarine looked a little surprised. She blushed and nodded. (A/N: Hey! I play flute too!)
" Do you mind.." Aqualad said pointing to it
She picked it up and began to play a soft melody. It sounded like a sweat Lullaby. When the song ended Aqualad seemed to snap out of a dreamy daze.
" You know," He said putting his hands on her shoulder " if you straighten up your shoulders and raise your head a little you'd probably get a better sound."
She followed his instructions and the sound was twice as good. But she could barely think. For some unexplainable reason the very fact that he touched her made her shiver with something. A feeling she couldn't quite figure out. Soon the dreamy song ended and they were back to being separated.
" So, what kind of powers do you have anyway?" Aqualad asked, trying to figure her out.
Aquamarine looked excited, " Not too different from you. Gills, control water, except I can shape it into anything and use it for anything."
" How's that possible?"He asked
Aquamarine's experasion went from excited to sad, " Well, I was walking by one of the many nuclear power plants in steel city when it suddenly just exploded. I fell into a lake nearby and I was so sure I would drown, but suddenly I noticed I could breath. I found the slits on my neck and I noticed the water would do whatever I told it to do."
" Wow, That's amazing." Aqualad said
"It was." Aquamarine looked even sadder " but it changed my appearance. My parents didn't recognize me so they kicked me out, and nobody would help in Steel City. So I ran away."
" Running away from your problems doesn't make them vanish." Aqualad said
" I know." Aquamarine said with tears in her eyes," but I can't do anything else. I have no one to turn to."
Aqualad wiped a tear from her cheek, " don't worry. People in this city look out for everybody. Including you." That's when he heard a bank alarm.
" Go save the day." Aquamarine said with a smile.
" Take care of yourself," Then Aqualad did something completely unexpected. He gave her a small peck on the cheek and went off.
Aquamarine touched her cheek and smiled. Then she climbed to the top of the rock and watched him swim away.
" Aqualad," She sighed " I think I love you."
" You like Water boy, yes?"
Ohhhhh! Who was that voice! Tune in next chapter to find out!
Toodles!
