Covet took a deep breath of the pure air and turned her eyes to him with a smile as he spoke.
"Yes. You can," she smiled simply, allowing her eyes to travel over his features. The remanants of Yaku's attack were still there, but fading quickly and he looked as if he were at utter peace.
"Aren't you getting hot with that heavy coat on?" she asked, reaching out to tug lightly on his sleeve.

Mecca looked back at her and raised an eyebrow.
"No. I'm fine." He said turning back to look at the waterfall and leaning back on his hands as Scim got bored and decided to come and pester them.
"Don't you feel restricted in that corset you are wearing?" he retorted. He didn't know why she was wearing the damn thing. They were on holiday, time to breathe.

Covet arched a brow and studied him for a moment at his retort. Looking away, she chewed on her lip as she looked back towards the waterfall and large pool of water it fell into. Slowly a smirk started to slip across her lips and she rose to her feet, reaching behind her to start unlacing her corset.
"Hmm... you're right... of course," she smirked, glancing down at him over her shoulder. Slipping the restricting article of clothing off, she smiled and turned to face him, tossing it into his lap. Smirking, she started to untie the scarf at her waist, then tossed that at him as well. "But you know," she began as she started to lift her top up over her head. "So are the rest of these clothes," she said, dropping her top down beside him and then reaching behind her to undo her skirt. With a teasing smirk, she let the material drop to the ground, then turned and took a couple of steps into the chilly water before diving beneath the surface. A little more graceful than her cannonball days, she thought with a smirk as she swam through the cold, clear water.

Mecca watched her with a weary smirk as she decided to strip off.
"Such an exhibitionist." He said with a small shake of his head laughing as Scim barked at her feet and jumped into the water after her.
Closing his eyes he breathed in the fresh air and listened to the sound of Scim splashing around in the water.
"Don't think because you're naked I'm jumping in there with you." He called opening an eye and watching the pair of them.

"Don't think because I'm naked I want you in here," she smirked as she treaded water. Telling Scim to stay, she swam across to the falls and slipped up behind them. Looking around at the small alcove, she smiled and turned to look through the falling water. She could see Mecca, but just barely. He was a dark smudge through the running water. Turning back to the alcove, she found a small ledge and pulled herself up onto it. If he was looking for solitude, here would have been perfect, she thought as she smoothed her wet hair out of her face and looked around again, the sound of the falling water a deafening roar, but pleasant music to her ears.

Mecca laughed at her and shook his head, shrugging his heavy coat off and leaning his elbows on his knees so that he could channel some energy from his surroundings.
Breathing deeply through his nose he went into a state of meditation, trying to focus on his growing powers and how he could use the magic around him to his advantage.

After a good long while of watching the water fall and listening to it's sounds, she took a deep breath and dove down to swim back towards Mecca and Scim. Breaking the surface silently, she breathed in deeply as her feet found purchase on the sandy bottom. Watching Mecca for a moment, a michievious smirk slipped across her lips. Edging closer, she drew her arm back and quickly lobbed a large cold splash at Mecca.

Mecca was jolted from his meditation as she water was hurled over him.
"Hey!" He said opening his eyes and glaring at Covet. Raising an eyebrow he stood and walked over to her.
"THat was uncalled for." He said folding his arms and looking down at her.

"Yes... but it was so much fun," she smirked devilishly. Pulling herself out up above the surface so that she was waist deep in the water, she crossed her arms over her chest for a moment.
"So Mecca... I must ask... How does it feel?" she asked, tilting her head to the side with a coy smirk.

Mecca raised an eyebrow and frowned at her.
"How did what feel?" he asked with a slight hint of confusion. Looking down at her and smirking at Scim's antics he shrugged. "getting wet? It felt ... wet and slightly cold."

Without a second thought to the consequences, Covet reached out and yanked him into the cold water. Stepping away out of his reach, she put her hands on her hips and looked down at him. "How does it feel to get a taste of your own medicine?" she smirked.
Mecca cried out as he plummeted into the cold water. Splashing in panic for a moment he swallowed half the pool before he realised he could stand in the water. Coughing and spluttering he glared at her angrily.
"I didn't push you over the bloody thing." He said, tilting his head back to keep the water out of his mouth.
Sinking down to her chin, she swam over to him and reached for his hands to pull him towards the shallower end. Smiling a little, she reached up and smoothed his hair out of his face. "True. You didn't. But I wouldn't let anything happen to you Mecca," she said softly, wiping the water off of his face. "You want to get a close up look at the waterfall?" she asked, arching a brow.
Mecca flicked his wet hair out of his eyes and shot her an unamused look.
"How can I go over there." He said waving his hand in the direction of the waterfall. "I cannot swim." He said shakily looking at the darker water by the cascading falls.
She was amused that she had -finally- managed to shake him up. He was more normal than he would have her believe, she thought with a small smirk. Closing the space between them, she wrapped her arms around him and traced a finger up his back. "I can teach you. It's not so hard. I promise," she smiled convincingly.

Mecca looked at her suspiciously and narrowed his eyes.
"Fine." he said with a small shrug as Scim paddled up to him and licked his shoulder. Mecca smirked and stroked his wet head.
"Show me, if it is so easy."

Smiling happily, Covet pressed a quick kiss to his lips and pulled away.
"First you have to learn to float," she smiled, leaning back on her back and smiling at him as she began to float. "It's really relaxing and once you realize you're lighter than water, you won't panic like you did just now," she smiled and winked as she sat herself up and swam back to him. "You wanna try?"

Mecca raised an eyebrow and took a deep breath. O.k that didn't look so difficult. Laying backwards he attempted to lie on his back. Though as soon as his feet left the floor he felt unsafe and started to sink. Swallowing water again he coughed his way upright and frowned.
"Wait." he said holding his hand up. "Let me try again." He said lying back again, his stubborn nature taking over his fear.

Covet quickly moved to his side as he began to panic and reached out to help him back up.
"I'll help you this time," she smiled, glad that he was still willing to try. Holding her arms out underneath him, she held him afloat and smiled down at him. "Tell me when you're ready for me to pull away," she smiled.
