The warmth that Carissa shared with her by huddling close, vanished as fast as it appeared, and Amelia felt disappointed.
She nodded at Carissa's suggestion, and with that kicked her legs and began to swim on her front further out into the lake.
Faster and faster...trying to block any thoughts from her mind except the ones that told her to breathe and keep swimming...

Once again the cold water and air began to consume her. Shivering again, Carissa tried to forget about the cold, and began to sing “I would make you my world Move Heaven and Earth if you were my girl I will give you my heart Be all that you need Show you you're everything that's precious to me If you give me a chance I can love you like that”
The song was a classic. John Michael Montgomery was one of her favorite singers, there was no denying his talent, and his songs had often left the slight brunette breathless from the words.
Not being able to ignore the cold anymore, Carissa turned to Amelia, teeth chattering worse now than before, “I-I-I’m k-k-kind c-c-c-c-c-c-c-cold” She managed to get out through the chattering, “I t-think I’ma g-get out n-n-now, y-you c-c-c-coming?”

Singing. Carissa had such a beautiful voice, even through her feeling of disappointment: her voice managed to drag a smile onto Amelia's features.
"No...I haven't had my exercise like you have...think I'll just do a couple of laps or summit...I'll be a few minutes...you heading back to the school?" 'Mia questionned, unsure of what she wanted the answer to be now, as she was even more confused about Carissa.

Hiding the fact that she was disappointed about Amelia staying in the water, Carissa smiled slightly, “Nah, I don’t really feel like going inside yet, kinda want to enjoy the night… I’m gonna make a fire on the shore, though… So, y’know, if you care to join me, I’ll be there,” She said, before beginning to swim towards the shore.
“Enjoy your swim,” she said in a light tone, whilst swimming further away. One reaching the shore, she hauled her self out of the water, wrapping her arms around herself tightly. Going about collecting some wood, she made a small pile, and then picked up her silver Zippo, which she had placed on the ground along with her MP3 player.
Lighting the wood, Carissa let a small, pleased smile slip onto her lips as the warmth from it washed over her. How nice fire could be. So beautiful, so warm, yet so destructive, so dangerous. She loved it.

ooc: congrats on your 100th post
ic:
As the pink eyed female swam, she closed her eyes to the world. She was, afterall, in a large lake where there was no threat of bumping into something, and so 'Mia felt safe to do so.
The dangerously slender female slipped through the water with both ease and grace. 'Mia picked up quite a speed as she went, only when she was nearing the center of the huge lake did the brunette realise how much her boney arms and legs ached: they were not used to all the physical exercise since she had been resurrected.
Turning to face back to the shore where she could sense Carissa, Amelia could make out a fire burning, and the small silohette of Carissa in the moonlight. Treading water so that she wouldn't sink, 'Mia sighed.
She then slowly began to make her way back, towards the fire, towards the warmth, towards Carissa. It seemed to take an eternity for the return swim, but gradually she grew closer. As the water shallowed, and 'Mia was able to stand up, she got to her feet and walked out on her wobbly legs, almost collapsing on the lake's bank.
"Well! That's me pooped!" she admitted, embarassed at her lack of stamina. "See you got a fire going...cool" she said as she crawled closer to it to bask in its warmth.

Ooc: Aw, thankies ^.^
Bic:
Watching the flames flicker around, Carissa smiled slightly, memories flooding into her mind. Her family had always made fires during the summer. They would all get together, and sit around the fire, gabbing. It was always so fun.
Seeing Amelia approaching, Carissa’s smile grew larger. Patting the ground beside her, Carissa gestured for the other girl to come over, “Ah, that was quite a swim you had there, even for a lycan…” Smiling proudly, Carissa nodded, “Of course I got a fire going, you’re looking at some who’s been well trained in the making of fires, by cousins… And my dad, of course… We were pretty much all firebugs,” She said, laughing.

Obediently 'Mia crawled slowly over to where Carissa had patted, she then rolled over onto her back and looked up at the stars. However, as she was wet, the cool night air began to make her shiver, and so she rolled onto her side and shuffled closer to the fire to absorb more of its heat.
"Thanks...I guess?!"
Resting her head on her right hand, which was propped up by leaning on her elbow, 'Mia stuck out her left hand, which was still damp from her swim, and slowly she put her hand into the flames.
Smiling, 'Mia wriggled her fingers: the feeling of triumph at being stronger than the fire soon began to wear off though, as the water protecting her hand quickly evaporated and so the intensity of the flames reached her nerves. 'Nia quickly retracted her hand from the fire and admired it: no harm done.
"I love to play with fire" she explained.

Watching Amelia quietly, Carissa took in all she could of the other girl. Mentally kicking herself, Carissa tore her eyes away from the other brunette briefly, reminding herself that straight girls were always off-limits. No matter who the straight girl was, or how much you wanted her to not be off-limits.
Tilting her head to the side as Amelia stuck her hand in the fire, Carissa couldn’t help but grin slightly. Then, of course, as Amelia stated that she loved to play with fire, a full-out grin spread across her lips, “Oh dear god, I have found my perfect woman,” She said in a playful tone, winking.
Picking up a leaf that had fallen from a tree, Carissa began to fold it, then threw it into the fire, having grown bored with it.

"I take it you like fire too then?!" she enquired, still gazing at the flames at they flickered and crackled. "I just think they are so beautiful....alive...its like...we can create a fire...but then...they get a mind of their own." she shrugged, wondering if she'd just made herself sound stupid.
Taking her head off the palm of her hand, she rested it on her arm, allowing her right hand to just flop to the ground and play with some grass.
"So, come on then...I wanna know all about you. Spill." 'Mia demanded.

Nodding, Carissa picked up the stick she had saved for poking, and began to poke at the fire, “I adore fires…” A small smile twitched at her lips as she listened to Amelia, absorbing in every word the other girl said. Nodding her head in agreement, Carissa poked at the fire once again, “T’is true… Very true… I agree with you completely,” She said in a light tone, her eyes looking as if they were dancing in the moonlight.
Reclining back on her elbows, Carissa began to once again play with the string on her shorts, “Well, what exactly do you want to know?” She asked, peering at Amelia curiously.

ooc: I like how you mentioned dancing in the moonlight in your post Carissa -pats- ;D ic: 'Mia shrugged. She was stumped: how was she meant to know what she wanted to know if she didn't know Carissa?! (I'm going for a world record attempt at using the word 'know' in one setence!!) "Hmmm...well I don't know...what are your best and worst memories?" she suddenly asked, picking the question out of mid air almost. ooc2: gawd I'm so sorry for my lame posts in both of our threads...the tiny bit of muse I ever had is slipping away....

Ooc: lmao, was a great plug, eh? XDDD Awww -Huggles you- Your post was still rocking ^.^ We must come up with a creative and fun way to get your muse back, then… Bic: Beginning to drum her fingers on her abdomen, Carissa stared up at the moon, thinking about what the answer would be, “Well… My best memories are all with my family… I love my family, we’re all really close… I think that’s one of the reasons I’m looking forward to having kids so much…” She stated, smiling softly. Suddenly frowning, Carissa looked out over the water, staring at nothing, “My worst memories, though… Oh boy… Those would probably be pretty much the whole time I was trying to come to terms with being… Well, you know… Plus, when I was about 13, 14... I fell into a deep depression… That wasn’t a fun time… but… anyways! So, yeah…”

Amelia nodded and smiled to show that she was listening as Carissa told her how she was close to her family.
When Carissa mentioned about depression, 'Mia knew that she shouldn't be nosey and intrude, but she was so very interested in knowing everything about the other brunette and so could not help herself...
"Er...what happened...you know...to...make you depressed?" she asked, sheepishly.

Wrapping her arms around herself now, Carissa turned her head slightly, so she could look at Amelia, before looking away, staring back over the lake. Her expression went blank for a few moments, “Well… Lots of stuff happened… I was trying to come to terms with being a lesbian… Then my two best friends moved away from me… One of whom I used to spend every day with… and I mean everyday … And then… My mom… Uh… Got put in the hospital… I nearly lost her… And, that was the worst feeling in the world…. My boyfriend gave me a hug when he found out, and that was it… My two best friends had moved, so they were there… It was just hard, y’know?” She said, her voice quivering slightly.
It had been so long ago, but it still brought so many bad emotions to her when she thought about it.

No wonder she got depressed thought the pink eyed girl as Carissa explained more of her past. Amelia looked at the other brunette in awe: she was so strong, she could sense it, and so it shocked 'Mia when Carissa's voice faultered; weakened.
"I'm sorry! I was just curious...I didn't mean to upset you..." said Amelia, quick to apologise for her wrong doings, and shuffling close to Carissa to put and arm around her shoulders.
"I'm sorry..."
