Okay, forget 'later'. :L
When Caleb reached the pool, Irma was delighted to laugh at his scrunching face, then surprised look and she wondered what he thought of the smell of chlorine. "Is that poison?"
He knew the smell then. Hay Lin, amusingly grinned and pulled the poor guy in as shock crossed his features that they were walking, quite literally into the poisoned building, and Irma walked lazily behind. "Pure, diluted poison my friend. Didn't you know that on Earth all swimmers are suicidal?"
The joke dropped though, as soon as Caleb looked at her with a badly disguised panic, and Irma wondered if it would be inappropriate to pull out her camera-phone in order to take a picture. Will would want this look as her screen-saver, but before Irma got the chance Hay Lin smiled and shook her head, "Ignore her."
"Why would you swim in poison.. Is Will insane..?" Irma rolled her eyes as Caleb frowned in confused thought; allowing Hay Lin to easily careen him through the door which Irma held.
"Probably, but I don't think that's relevant."

Elyon Escanor tilted her head slightly, with curious eyes that lingered on the brooch in her reflection, and the curves it made the beautiful ensemble divulge and publish of her barely shaped figure. She was no less than she should be, and would even be considered as slightly curvy, but that didn't begin to change the fact that Elyon was barely close to fifteen years of age. She wouldn't be sixteen until next October and Elyon hated that she was one of the youngest in her class; in technicality she'd have been in the year below if she hadn't skipped kindergarten on her parent's wishes of the school. It didn't matter because they weren't her parents at all, but it had been the one thing she'd truly actually been mature enough to thank them for. She'd have been less likely to have warmed to Hay Lin or Irma without Cornelia to introduce them, and thus she'd never have had her best friend. Though that didn't matter either, as Elyon's eyes wandered across the desk to pink. "Are we finished here, then?"
Elyon jumped as she remembered Cedric's hands on her shoulders, which moved in an almost massaging manner when she tensed her arms in a slight shrug; dropping it when she realized that it wasn't exactly the prestigious thing to do, and clearing her voice and straightening her back to speak. "I suppose we are.. I was just.."
"I have something to show you then, " Cedric's glimmering smile relaxed Elyon and her curiosity grew. If this was just a means to fix a problem, what would be his true idea of surprise. "I do think that you'll very much like it."

"Entyposiásei." Caleb breathed the word with no intent or awareness that he was actually saying it, but truth be spoken he wasn't entirely sure if it was the poisonously thick sensation flowing in his lungs that was deluding him with this fazey feeling of dreamlike clouded thought as he watched the brightest blue water he'd ever seen, rippling in a box of pristine blue tiles that encased the shimmering 'pool'. And Will was there; he'd found her quickly as he scanned over the few bobbing heads, and he knew that she was obviously better and faster than the others - some who barely moved and only splashed playfully, but it was the entire visage and experience of the pool, and although he already found an enjoyment of swimming (not in particular, but it was not an undesirable sport), Caleb could see why Will liked swimming on Earth.
"Caleb..?" And she was good too; her flaming red contrasted the pool nicely, now pushed back in thick, wet locks and Caleb knew he would never get the smell out of his clothes, but it was starting to elude him as almost enticing. The entire experience was, though it seemed more terrific to watch than the prospect of actually swimming scene. That was until she stopped at the edge and turned to look and then turned a little pinker at the cheeks, looking at.. It was that boy again.
Entyposiásei - Wow.
