LOREN
Smirking at Eloise’s response, Loren found his eyes flicking to the lips in question. ”But it’s such an appealing mouth. How can I resist?” Letting out a huff of laughter, he winked at her. "I think you'll find that I'm full of surprises."
Faking a pout, expression mischievous around the edges, he batted his eyes at her, very much playing the part of the simpering sycophant. "But I'm so good at that." Still, as she splashed him, he decided to see what he could do. "Oh, so you want me to go down, then?" Taking a deep breath, he brought his body forward, treading water for a brief moment.
Then he took another deep breath and let himself slip under. His eyes stung from the salt, but he focused them on her form. Sinking, he tried to copy her movements from earlier, attempting to get closer to her with mixed results.
