Care to Take a Dip? [Open To More Than One]

[emmawinters]

Emma was walking along the lakeshore, back straight and head held high in confidence. Her face was striking: high cheekbones; startling hazelalmond-shaped eyes; plump lips curved into an attractive smile; rosy cheeks.

Dressed in Muggle clothes, she had on a simple throw over dress, covering up her two piece suit. The dress was loose, and whipped around her gently as the wind blew.

Glancing around, she looked around for someone to swim with. The water was tempting her with its smooth waves and gentle rhythym, but she was looking for someone to join her.

Gabriella sighed, brushing her dark brown, almost black, naturally wavy hair out of her face as the wind whipped around her, causing her not to be able to see since her hair was always in her eyes... if only she had brought a hair tie.

Tugging her sweater closer around her as she walked she looked around walker lake, one of her favourite places at the school, not seeing many people around. She saw a girl though... that looked to be about her age... she thoguht they had met once before, maybe at that coffee social thing but Gabriella couldn't be sure. Taking a seat on the ground she wondered whether she should go swimming or not, she'd be alone and she was much to shy to walk up to someone and start a conversation.

Emma was wandering around, basically walking in circles. On her first round she noticed a girl sitting on the ground, that looked familiar. Coffee shop meeting? She shrugged and continued walking. When she rounded the corner again and saw the same girl still sitting there, she decided to walk over and ask if she wanted to go for a swim.

"Hi," Emma said, as she sat down to sit next to Gabriella. "I'm Emma Winters, I think we met before." She glanced out at the lake. "Wanna go swimming?"

[gabriella]

Gabriella noticed the girl she recognized from somewhere come and sit down beside her and she smiled friendely to the girl as she tried to move her hair out of the way so she could actually see the girl clearly... or at least clearer. "Hi Emma, I'm Gabriella. And yeah, I'm pretty sure we have," Gabriella replied, glad that the girl remembered her from somewhere as she looked out at the water then back at the girl. "That sounds fun, so sure," she then finished with another smile.

"Come on! Let's go!" Emma had been dying to go swimming all day. Not only now was she able to do that, but she might also be able to make a friend as well.

Pulling Gabriella up by her hand, she raced towards one of the piers and took a running leap off, laughing. Her head reappeared a few seconds later, dripping. "The water feels," her teeth chattered slightly. "...cold!" She shrieked and dove under again.

[gabriella]

Gabriella laughed as she too ran over to the pier, not caring if it was cold or not. She just wanted to have some fun... that was all Gabriella ever wanted actually, just to have a little fun. As she dove into the water she came up to the surface and realised that maybe she hadn't of done that, it was cold... freezing actually. As her teeth chattered as well she brushed her wet hair from her face as she stood in the water, more than a bit cold but she couldn't help but laugh at her stupidity. "Oh my god... it's freezing," she said more to herself than to Emma.

[emmawinters]

Emma smiled and laughed, shaking. "Well...maybe we should put a toe in next time to see if it's freezing or not," she said, teeth chattering. She dove under the surface and surfaced, lips slightly blue. "How many icicles do I have in my hair?" she asked, smiling.
