Turin's eyes were somewhat glazed as he watched Kelebek's 'acrobatic display,' as it were. The way her scales glimmered in the light, the way her hair was carried by the sea's currents...it was as if he was growing intoxicated just by being around her.
Her hand in his, their forms floating close together, Turin still wore a constant, giddy smile as he looped his arms around her waist, forehead touching hers. "Ur so preddy..." he murmured, not noticing how badly he slurred. All he could see was Kel's eyes...if a little hazy.
The currents gently swirled around them, and Turin chuckled at belatedly realizing he was starting to drift sideways. Heh, whoops! Adjusting with a flick of his tail...then adjusting again once he over-compensated, he turned back to Kelebek, caught up once more in her gaze. He leaned in, brushing a hand against her cheek. "Ah think ah wanna' kiss you."

Kelebek bites her bottom lip. "Really?" she asks, voice full of girlish hope. "Because you totally can if you want." Every nerve in her body sings at all this contact she's getting with such a handsome man. His hands and arms about her waist, his forehead touching hers, and she can almost feel when her hair brushes against him.
She wraps her arms around his shoulders to draw him closer still, and touches her nose to his, giggling. "I mean...I wouldn't say no."

"'Kaaay, tha's good." Turin chuckled, happily floating in his hazy, intoxicated state. He had no worries, nothing on his mind except the pretty femme in his arms. How often did he ever really relax and let himself go anyway? He couldn't recall the last time he'd enjoyed himself like this.
Hand on her cheek, he leaned in, pressing his lips to hers as her hair formed a wafting curtain around the two of them.

The kiss sends her to a place of giddy ecstasy. Kelebek doesn't know what to do except be stunned with happiness. "Have you ever been in love, y'think?" she asks breathlessly, a silly smile permanently etched onto her face.
Gods and little fishes, I've never been so happy!

Turin tilted his head oddly, then chuckled 'cause it made him dizzy. "Dunno'. Dun think so, anyway?" he shrugged. Likely, no, he had never been in love. At the moment, he was having a hard time keeping his mind on the fact that he was in water, let alone in anything else metaphysical.
"Wa's it like?" he murmured, once more distracted by Kel's hair. He reached up, gently running his fingers through it with a dazed look.

"I dunno either..." says Kelebek, closing her eyes. Oh gods and little fishes, he'd put his hands in her hair! She shifts her hands to his waist to hold them close together. "I was hoping you could tell me, because I think I've fallen in love now. D'you feel the same way?" she asks earnestly, opening her eyes to look at him.
His eyes make her heart melt all over again. She'd fallen hard for the strong captain.

Turin seemed...confused. "Um...I dunno. I feel warm? And happy? Izzat love?" He wasn't sure. He wasn't sure about a lot of things right now. "All ah know is...I like it here." He chuckled again, pulling her close and resting his head on her shoulder. The captain nuzzled her neck for a moment before leaning back.
"There'sa nice reef...nah too far from here. If ya' wanna' talk more 'bout this 'love' thing?"

"It could be..." says Kelebek. She holds him close, and his breath on her neck makes her shiver slightly. "Mm, wha?" She pouts softly when he stops to ask her about the reef.
Reefs were nice and private...
"Sure, okay," agrees Kelebek. "Mmm....show me where the reef is, an' I'll show you what I think love feels like."

Turin pulled away slightly, bowing to kiss her hand. He looked like he was about to say something suave and romantic and elegant...
"Okie dokie!"
...or not.
Grinning widely, he turned and set off, going some distance before realizing he'd left Kel behind. Whoopsie! He pulled a wobbly U-turn and went back, reaching for her hand before heading off again for the nearby reef.

The next morning, Kelebek awakes with a slight headache, but nothing too unpleasant. The sight of Turin still sleeping next to her erases any pain she might have felt. Smiling, she ignores the rumbling in her stomach and cuddles up to him. She feels as if a new chapter of her life is beginning.

Turin's awakening...wasn't quite so pleasant. The sensation of something moving nearby was likely what woke him, but it brought with it a group of unpleasant feelings. Like a headache...and a general feeling of illness.
Even this deep in the water, with the sunlight dimly filtering through much of the cool water, it seemed...bright. The captain started to open his eyes, then blinked painfully, keeping them half-lidded. Ugh...
Wait, something moving? Where was he? And why wasn't he alone?
Raising a hand to shield his eyes from the light, he dared open them again, trying to gauge the situation. At seeing Kelebek, the previous night...slowly...started...trickling...back...
...oh crap.

Kelebek had just settled her head on Turin's chest when he started moving. "Oh good, you're awake," she says, giggling. "Mm, and you're still here." She bites her bottom lip cutely and hugs him possessively. "I worried last night was a dream, too good to be true. But here you are!" Clearly she's overjoyed. Her hair swirls around her face and body in the dimly-lit water, and even through the coral-colored curtain, her rosy cheeks can clearly be seen.

...to reiterate, oh crap.
What did I do? I didn't have THAT much to drink...did I?
If they weren't in the water, Turin would be sweating about now. As it were, the Captain glanced down awkwardly at the female clinging to his torso, wondering just what he was supposed to do about this. "Err...so I am?" He reached up, running a hand through his hair and trying to get his bearings.
With a glance around, he ventured another question. "And...where exactly is here?" The area looked somewhat familiar, but he was more stalling for a distraction while his mind raced...mostly in circles.

"Oh, some little grotto," answers Kelebek dreamily. "I think the city's that way." She gestures offhandedly in one direction. "But we're pretty far out." She giggles. "Just by ourselves...we could stay here all day if we wanted and nobody would find us."
She sits up. "Unless you have duties, that is. I've got nowhere to be, and even if I did nobody would miss me." She looks down and rubs her arm.
