Help

[»Míríel«]

Miriel smiled up at Damion, though the smile was somewhat lacking. The idea of swimming at the moment was frighting. To have the water seeping all around you, closing in, consuming you. Down deep she had always wanted to do it. She had always seen children and people playing in the water, splashing, swimming, but she never got around to trying it. Being a being of fire already created a rift between her and the element of water, and the death of her mother didn't help out water's case. Perhaps with Damion there she would be able to venture in.

Then the smile grew brighter on her face, "I might just try that." She waved a finger at him, "And you better like it." She teased him. Then as he started to lead her away she raised an eyebrow, "True, but you will have to make up this one." She laughed. 'I want to spend as much time with you as I can." She squeezed his hand and drew a bit closer to him.

Damion smiled at Miriel, "I make no promises, my dear, but I will try it for you." He looked at her with adoring eyes as he thought about being able to spend as much time with her as he wanted. That would be wonderful. Having Miriel all to himself was something that Damion wanted, but knew that he would have to wait for. In the meantime though, he would take as many little doses of her as he could.

"Well, I suppose we ought to start right now, since there is no time to waste!" He would make sure that Miriel stayed with him as long as she could bare it.
