I wanna fade away with you

i'd probably still adore you with your hands around my neck

Keeping his lips against hers even as he released her legs, Everest combed his fingers across her cheek until his fingertips began to slip through her hair. Wanting nothing more than to pick her up in his arms again, the aviator instead began to slowly walk them forward if only so that they were out of the deeper portion of the pool. Somewhere behind Isla was the wall, but Everest wasn't willing to open his eyes or pull his hands away from her body to find it.

Allowing his eyes to flutter open, the aviator's lips began to form a disagreement that he wouldn't allow himself to give voice to. "No, of course." He agreed, shakily, and though his answer was immediate, his willpower was nevertheless only hanging on by a thread. "You..are..." With the Remedy's upturned lips and flushed cheeks so near, the aviator was at a clear loss as to how he was meant to reason let alone form a coherent thought. Laughing under his breath and momentarily trying to look anywhere but Isla, he found his gaze hopelessly dragged back to her pebble blue stare.

"...incredible." He decides at last, swallowing hard and wondering if perhaps Isla were to give him a good slap to his cheek if that would help redirect his blood flow back north.
