" Yes by holding my hand."

" Oh, okay." He removed his hand from mine and I suddenly felt cold. But I wasn't distracted anymore, I was able to concentrate. I took a deep sigh like my therapist would say. Then I allowed myself to be one with my surrondings, it took a while but I could feel the breeze, it was slight but I felt it. I could hear the waves crashing, they moved up and down on my feet. I could hear the sea gulls, a few people from a distance and my own heart; it was beating faster than normal. Everything felt heightened.

" Hey, lost you there for a second." He put his hand on my shoulder. It felt cold and hot and the same time.

" I'm good. Sorry for zoning out."

He moved his hand, " Okay great. So? What's the verdict?"

" How did you know it would help? I mean my therapist has been trying to get me to do that and sometimes I did it and it didn't work."

" Wait, you have a therapist? Wow, that's shocking."

" Like you didn't know already, I feel like you know everything about me."

" Right! I want you to try something else."

" What?"

I don't know what was wrong with me, I was doing everything he was saying. I was just going with the flow and it wasn't like me. Was it because of him? Or maybe because I wanted to be done with him!

" Try feeling the water!"

" I'm already doing that, with my toes." Then I wiggled them so he could see

" No ,with your hands."

" What difference does it make?"

" Maybe you should try and you'll know."

I bend down and touched the water with my fingers. Okay! There wasn't anything special that I felt.

" I don't know what I was supposed to feel when I touched the water but I didn't ."

" Actually you weren't supposed to feel anything. That was for me."

" What you mean?"

" I just wanted to see you bend down."

" Perv!!!"

He just didn't make me bend down just so he could, ew. That was disgusting. I knew exactly where he was standing so I cupped the water and threw it in his direction.

" Okay I'm sorry." He cried out but I wasn't done yet, I kept it coming. He moved directions trying to get away from me but I could sense him every step he took. I kicked the water in his direction and I was sure he was wet now. Honestly he deserved more but that was going to make it.

" I'm sorry, I'm really drenched for the next draught right now."

" You actually deserve to be dipped in the deepest part of the ocean."

" I could do with a swim actually."

" Then why don't you just dive into the ocean?"

"Dive huh? It's not that easy."

" Why not?"

" Well..." he moved in a bit closer to me and continued " the dive has to be the most memorable thing ever."

" The dive in the ocean?"

" Yes,or are we talking about something else?" He kept closing in the distance between us but I couldn't move, I was stuck because I was thinking about what he just said. He wasn't talking about swimming, was he? But I wouldn't say anything.
