New Smyrna Beach, Florida

'Oh dear god.' I mutter, putting my mask on and copying them both

Death was waiting for River just a few feet from the boat. Mike fell in just after River and a cloud of bubbles surrounded him.

I swim straight up to death aand take his hand, squuezing it slightly before letting go

Mike motions for the pair to follow him.

Death follows Mike, keeping River's hand in his.

The sunlight was muted by the water, to my relief, but i watched death out of the corner of my eye anyway, knowing he would be more effected by it

Death felt some slight discomfort on his exposed skin, but nothing that concerned him.

Mike lead them to a sand bar. There were dozens of medium sized sharks swimming around, looking for fish. Some of them came up to Mike and did lazy circles around him, like they knew who he was.

My eyes widen slightly. their beautiful i think, longing to go up and touch one.

Mike reached out and let his hand trail a sharks back, from the dorsel fin to the tail. He motioned for Death and River to do the same when a shark passed them.

One passes close and i reach out, touching it gently.

He reached out and touched the same shark. The skin was oddly rough, like a rock, nothing like Death imagined it.

OOC I've actually touched a shark before, it's very much like touching a moving rock.

ooc swimming with shark is on my bucket list. lol

ic
....


ooc I DONT KNOW WHAT TO SAY

OOC

IC The shark acted as if they weren't even there.

Mike pulled a bag off his belt and reached in. He pulled out a hefty chunk of raw fish. He offered it to River.

ooc im tired, lol, i have no imagination today.

ic
I take it, holding it out infront of me for the shark

Death tensed as a shark slowly swam up to River. It opened its mouth and engulfed the fish, turning quickly away with it's prize in its mouth.

Mike pulled out another chunk and offered this one to Death.

I take the fish from Mike and place it in deaths hands

He held the fish out. Another shark came by and took the fish from Death's hands. Death reached up and touched the shark as he swam by.

I take deaths hand back and hold it tightly

OOC warning i'm gonna time lapse if you don't mind

IC They spend an hour down there feeding and touching the sharks. Mike looks at his pressure gage for the oxygen tank. He tapped Death and River and pointed to the surface.

I roll my eyes but reluctantly swim back up to the boat.

They break the surface and Death pulls off his apparatus and mask. "That was fun."

I practically squeal. 'Thank you!' As i throw my arms around him

"Alright, come on you two lovebirds." Mike began swimming back to the boat, just a few feet away.

Death laughed. "You're welcome."

I laugh quietly, still smiling as i reach the boat

Both men climb into the boat and Death helps River. He sits down on one of the seats and pulls River down next to him.

Mike raises the anchor and starts the boat. He turns around and drives off back to the boat dock.

'What next?' I ask, half joking.
