Druig and Makkari Imagines

Off Cliffs

Imagine: somewhere in their 7,000 years of being together, they had to have taken time off. So imagine they went cliff diving.

————————————————————————
Druig and Kingo were the first to jump. No hesitation. Phastos took a deep breath as he looked over the edge. He then jumped, screaming the whole way down.
They loved days like this. Sunny, warm, and calm.
Gil looked over the edge, a smile on his face. He turned to Thena and motioned for her to go before him. She smiled at him and tipped her chin up. "Thank you Gil." She dived perfectly into the crystal water below.
Sersi and Ikaris were a few feet to the left, standing by themselves, obviously enjoying the view.

Makkari eyed them, smiling before turning her gaze to the water below. When she looked, she saw Kingo and Druig signing for her to come down.
She smirked at them, signing "One second."

She backed away from the edge. When she felt she was a good distance away, she began to run. She didn't speed this time, but instead, jogged to the edge before throwing herself off.
Ajak, who was sitting on the edge of the cliff, clapped her hands and cheered along with those of them who were already in the water.

Makkari hit the water beautifully, with a splash. When she resurfaced, Kingo was swimming towards her.
"That was awesome Makkari!" She read his lips and smiled so wide her eyes closed.
She signed a quick "thanks" as she treaded the water.
Her eyes moved over Kingo's shoulder and she almost let out a silent laugh when she saw Druig slowly creeping up behind her friend.
She started to move back a bit and one of Kingo's brows lifted in question.
"What's wro-?" Before he could finish his question, he was dowsed in water.
Druig splashed him again. Kingo glared playfully and quickly spun, dragging his arms along the water as he did.
Druig was now the one spitting water, his bangs weighed down by the water.

Ajak watched her family fondly.
Thena soon joined the water fight, Gilgamesh laughing as she did. Sprite then followed. Phastos, who had been happily floating nearby, was now vertical, salt water in his eyes. He glared before splashing the group, joining in.

Their laughter echoed off the rocky walls of the cliff. It was a beautiful sound.

Makkari felt her heart rate increase as her joy did. It was a beautiful thing; this time to relax and forget their mission for just a few hours.

The bustle died down and the group separated, Sprite and Thena diving under, Gilgamesh and Kingo floating beside each other. Sersi and Ikaris had entered the water at some point during their family tussle. Sersi had her arms wrapped around Ikaris' neck as he swam.

Makkari softened a bit at the sight.

As she was watching them, a head appeared, bobbing in the water and blocking her view.
It was Druig.

"Hello m' beautiful."
She smiled in greeting as he swam to her, gently wrapping his arms around her waist. She slung her arms over his shoulders.
She could feel the thrum of his blood, the vibrations of his heart, and the flow of water as he kicked gently, keeping them afloat.

Her eyes wandered down to his lips when she felt the air from his mouth hit her lips.

"You ok?"
She closed her eyes, nodding. Her eyes opened as he began to swim, brining them out further, away from the cliff and just a few feet away from the others. He didn't take his eyes off hers as they swam.

Smiling seemed to be all they could do when looking at each other. Her heart rate picked up and she looked to the very small space in between them. He nudged her gently and she tipped her head back with a silent laugh, then brought her eyes level with his again.

"Let go of me," she signed, "and I drown you."
He laughed.
"Are you a mind reader Makkari?"
She smirked at him and turned her head, being bashful.
He held her a little tighter as the waves pushed against their bodies.
Makkari pressed her cheek to his, the warmth of their skin calming her heart.

When the time to get out and head back came, she was devastated but excited at the same time. After this, she was going collecting.

But she'd be away from Druig.

What a shame.

This was bliss...
