I looked at the water. It was crystal clear. Levi would be able to see everything clearly if I swam naked. It looks like I'd just have to swim in my pants. They were dirty as well, so it didn't matter.

"So, is this how you clean up?" Levi asked, taking off his shirt. I looked at him. Ignoring his question to admire the his body. For such a short man he really had a nice body. He had a six pack and all his muscles were defined.
"Pros of working a 3DMG?"

I felt my cheeks heat up. I was staring too long. I saw him raise his eyebrow at me and got even more embarrassed. "Oh! Yea! Umm...y-yea this is how I clean up...all the other water ponds and such are too cold or dirty," wait to go, fucked that up, pretty sure he noticed me staring. He probably thinks I'm a pervert now, that's great.

I distracted myself from the awkward moment just then by running and splashing into the water. I only took a couple of steeps before there was a rather large drop of and I had to begin swimming. Levi followed after, only to stop and sit down before the drop off. The water line was a little below his chest at that point.

"Not going to swim?" I asked, swimming over to sit beside him. I shook the water from my hair and wolf ears. Water droplets coming to hit him in the face.

"Oi! Brat watch it! No, I'm not going to swim..." He turned his head away from be.

"Why not?" I tilted my head.

He scooted back from the drop off some more. Then a thought crossed my mind maybe he didn't know how to swim.

"Do you...do you even know how to swim?"

He shot me a glare. A glare that could kill. I leaned back a bit. Assuming that he just couldn't swim I continued "I could teach you..."

His glare turned into an annoyed expression. "I don't need a brat teaching me how to swim,"

"Swimming is a great and useful skill to have. You won't always be able to use maneuvering gear to rescue a drowning person,"

He looked at me a moment; as if he was deciding weather he'd let me teach him or not. "Fine, you little shit, but if I drown with you trying to teach me, I'll come back and haunt you until you die,"

I only chuckled. "I'll teach your I. The wider area before the drop off. There's enough shallow space to teach you to swim," I pointed to my back "I'll help you over there,"

He looked at me. "You mean cling to you while you swim over there? Fuck no, what if you can't carry me over there and we both drown."

I was about to make a comment about his weight but decided not too. "Dude, in the water, you weigh like nothing, just give it a try. I have have more strength then the average human. Cut me some slack,"

Levi hesitantly grabbed my shoulders, pressing his chest to my back. I pushed off the ledge in the water right before the drop off and began swimming to the other side.

Levi clang to me for dear life. It was quite surprising for someone like him not being able to swim.
Within a couple short minuets I made it to the wide shallow area.

He immediately got off my back and scooted away from the deep indention in the earth.

"See? That wasn't so bad," I smiled.

Levi started walked out of the hot spring. "You know what, that's enough swimming for me, let's dry off,"

I frowned. Slightly disappointed. "Alright," I followed after him walked into the dry land. Both our pants were soaking wet and it was started to get really cold.
