Don't Be Scared

Mairi was still disappointed with Michael, that he had pushed Jason into the lake and did nothing to help him. Or her. After all they had been through together. So she decided, that it was time to take action into her own hands and try to teach Jason how to swim.

It wasn't until two weeks after the incident,l she finally was able to break the idea to Jason. It needed a lot of coaxing to get him even to strip down and enter the water. She knew he had done so before though and eventually he agreed.
“It's ok, Jason, we practise were we could still stand.”
She looked over to the pier where Michael sat with a sneer on his face, legs dangling into the water and watching them.
“I'll let nothing happen to you.”
Jason, who refused to take his mask off, stared at her blankly.
That's what the counsellors said before they ran off having sex.
Mairi sighed, pushing her hair out of her face.
“Maybe. But I'm not like those counsellors. If I let you drown, to whom should I run then?”
Beneath his mask he smiled, as he bravely took her outstretched hand. She led him into the water until it reached up to her shoulders.
“Ok, Jason. Now try to relax and lay back onto my arm.”
He hesitated and she smiled up at him.
“I want you to loose your fear. Just close your eyes and lean back.”
She could see him swallow hard, as he finally leaned back on her waiting arm. The water let his arms and legs float and he could feel her other arm come under his lower back. She gently started moving him through the water and he opened his eye to look up into her sunlit features. For a moment he forgot the water around him as he was captured by the sparkling of her light blue eyes and her gentle smile as she swayed him back and forth.
“How do you feel?”
She asked in a low voice. He smiled.
Like a baby.
They both chuckled.
“It isn't so bad is it?”
Mairi had made her way back into more shallow water without him noticing.
No it isn't, it really isn't.
Mairi nodded slowly.
“OK. I will now slowly let you go. You just stay this way, gently move your arms back and forth and you'll be fine.”
His eyes widened a bit at this.
“I stay at your side.”
He nodded and she slowly let go of his lower back first. Nothing happened and indeed he managed to say relatively relaxed. Then she let go of his neck too and to his surprise he really stayed afloat, despite his size and weight. He did as she advised and moved his arms forth and back. And then his head dipped a bit too low and water rushed through the airvents of his mask. In a split second he tensed up and couldn't keep himself afloat any longer. He panicked, having the feeling of drowning again. He struggled, not even noticing that his knees already hit the ground. Suddenly she pulled him up straight on his shoulders. Still panicked he wrapped his arms around her knees, hugging his cheek to her thighs. She bend over to him, pressing her naked breasts against his back and softly running her fingers over the side of his head.
“Hush Jason, don't be scared.”
Her soft voice finally pulled him out of his panic and he noticed, that he knelled in the water, while it reached only a bit over her knees. He looked up at her face, wet hair hanging down like a curtain, shielding him from view. She smiled, slowly lowering herself down until she sat beside him, the water rippling around her breasts with every breath. Somehow he found it hard to avert his gaze from there but when he finally did, she slowly reached for his mask and took it off, before tossing it to the shore. She leaned in, lightly touching her lips to his, sending a jolt through his body.
“It's easier without that thing.”
She whispered against his lips, while she let her hands wander from his shoulders over to his strong pectoral muscles, her gaze locked with his. He smiled, leaning in to steal another kiss.
Then lets try again.
