Partners in Crime

And I Quote...

James: follow me then.. *turns around and stays swimming off towards a hallway*
Reggie:*hangs back by DBA* sooooooooo... *scratches the back of his neck nervously*
DBA:*raises her eyebrow* go on..
Reggie: well ummm..
DBA:*sees where this is going and stops and waits until Reggie turns around and faces her* Reggie I'm not mad at you
Reggie:*relaxes and let's go of the breath he was holding* oh phew... LSS did mention you rubbed off on her I guess that meant you forgive easily... *turns around and starts to swim after James who hasn't noticed them lagging behind*
DBA:*catches up to Reggie and turns to look at him and smiles* well I try it's hard but everyone needs a second chance in my opinion... *looks forward and drops her smile* though it's hard to forgive some people especially those who hurt people close to me and even when that person being isn't really someone close...
Reggie:*glances over at DBA who isn't looking the happiest* sorry didn't mean to upset you..
DBA:*shakes head to clear her thoughts* uh? Oh! no your fine *small smile* anyway let's catch up to James
Reggie: ok sounds good... By the way anything going on between you two? *sees DBA's confused look* what I mean is you guys are so casual around each other. You seem like you've know each other forever
DBA: hmm.. nope, nothing, we've just become really good friends over the last couple of hours
Reggie: uh huh... not sure I believe you... *winks then quickly catches up to James leaving DBA very confused*
DBA: what?! Why not?!! *swims after Reggie who is laughing like crazy, but can't keep up with him and his tail*
Reggie:*looks back at DBA and swims right into James* oops sorry James!
James:*turns around and looks at Reggie then over Reggie's head to see a very annoyed and confused more annoyed it seems DBA slowly swimming towards, closing the pretty big gap between them* uhhhh... Reggie what did you do?
Reggie:*glances over his shoulder* oops..
James:*looks over at Reggie* oops? Oops what?
Reggie: well I sorta started teasing her... *scratches the back of his neck*
James:*looks away from DBA and at Reggie* like..?!
Reggie: just wondered if anything was going on between you two... *looks back over his shoulder at DBA*
James: really? *shakes head* Nothing is going on
Reggie:*looks back at James* uh huh suuure.. then what was with the holding her like and I quote "a snuggly blanket?"
James: I was checking on her! She is literally the only friend I've ever had besides you! I didn't want to lose her!
Reggie:*flinches* oh.. yeah that makes sense... sorry..
James and DBA: it's ok
James and Reggie:*gasp and look at DBA*
Reggie:*mouth drops open*
James: how long have you been there?? And Reggie shut your mouth
DBA:*chuckles and shakes her head* only the last part about Reggie saying sorry so you can relax James *chuckles again and starts swimming past them* come on you two LSS is waiting
Reggie:*snaps out of his trance when he hears LSS's name* right let's go*takes the lead past DBA*
DBA: hey no fair you have a tail! *stops and looks back at James* you coming?
James: huh?.. oh yeah, coming *swims up to DBA and slows down so he can swim by her*
DBA:*puts her hand in James' causing to startle him making DBA laugh* chill ok remember what you told me? And I quote "we'll go faster since I have tail" but in this case I means you *looks at him smiles then stares ahead still smiling and laughing to herself*
James:*stares starstruck at DBA then finally smiles himself and looks ahead and speeds up to catch Reggie* by the way DBA ummm..
DBA:*still staring ahead* yeah?
James: well I just wanted to say that you are beautiful... *looks at DBA for a reaction and is a little surprised to see her smile she had turn to a frown*
DBA:*notices James a little shocked face and gives him a small smile as she turns to him* its just ummm..
James:*stops causing DBA to stop also and puts his hand, the one not holding DBA's, over her mouth* don't.. your fine, my fault I caught you off guard... it's just... I was surprised when you said and I quote "I'm not beautiful"... because you reeeally are I hope I'm not making things awkward but since your like my besty *feels DBA smile under his hand* that I'm able to tell you these things.. *looks down awkwardly and then realizes that his hand is still on her mouth and takes it off stop staring at the ground*
DBA:*smiles sweetly at him and let's go of James' hand and places both of her hands on either sides of his jaw on the lower part of it and lifts up his head, swimming up moving her feet back and forth slowly so she stays eye level with James* you are totally fine and your right we are bestys so you can tell me that and anytime I'm being stupid and annoying *smiles and lights up when James finally looks at her and smiles back* let's go Reggie is already waaaaaaayyyyyy ahead of us *drops her hands and grabs James hand and starts swimming after Reggie as James slowly comes out of his trance and swims with her picking up speed*
James:*smiles to himself at what just happened thinking it was kinda amusing and glances at DBA who has a serious expression on her face for some reason so he tries to figure out what to say to make DBA laugh* hey DBA?
DBA:*distractedly* hmm..?
James:*smiles at how pretty she looks even with that serious face of hers and her hair flowing around her..*
DBA:*breaks out of her trance still looking ahead* ummm James did I miss what you were telling me or haven't you said it yet?
James:*snaps out of it and looks ahead shaking his head* no sorry didn't say it.. what I was gonna say was have I told you how cold your hands are? *smiles*
DBA:*looks over at him an exaggeratedly sticks her tongue out at him and closing her eyes as she does it, then turns face forward again chuckling a little bit* *teasingly*does that bother you?
James:*widens his eyes not realizing she is joking* what?! no! It doesn't I'm totally ok with it I was jus... *stops and looks over at DBA when he hears her start to laugh* what?
DBA:*looks over at James and laughs even harder at his expression* I was teasing you chill!
James:*laughs* you got me! *winks and looks forward smiling proudly that he had succeeded in making her laugh*
DBA:*shakes head* alright Captain let's go catch up to Reggie he is really far ahead
James: alright sounds like a plan! *swims faster to get to Reggie and stops behind and let's go of DBA's hand to her a better look at what Reggie is staring at and gasps*
DBA: what's the matter *trying to get a better look behind the boys*
Reggie:*whispers half heatedly as he stays at the Rochdale in front of him* its blocked and there isn't a way to get through and there isn't another other way in...

Awww... aren't James and DBA cute and isn't James sweet! He is so caring towards DBA!! First snuggly blanket now trying to make her laugh! To bad they seem to be just friends and nothing more!😉 And what are they going to do with the way being blocked?! By the way when I spelt bestys or besty that is how I spell it even if it's not "correct" just so you guys know.
