Thread: Safe & Sound [Merc & zPrimal]

Elliot raised an eyebrow at her request to change the radio channel. Normally pop was associated with these types of environments, but with your leave, He swapped it out for something more suited for his own tastes. The sound of power metal blared from the speakers as he lay back, his arms folded behind his head in the guise of relaxation. Any genre, usually metal or rock held the beat and coarseness in the instruments as well as lyrics which are drastically different from popular music, something not about love. After listening to the same thing, the melodies had melded together, barely distinguishable from each other since all they did was to follow what was the trends. He watched as she descended into the pool, the cool liquid rippling around her flawless form, like a model on the front cover of a tourism magazine. The view offered from where he say was superb, overlooking the vast city without any obstructions in the light of the late afternoon heat. Her eyes flashed back and forth, lingering on him as though she would like to say something, perhaps to turn the radio off entirely, but since she said nothing, he was not about to make assumptions on what Kekoa wanted. But soon it was obvious she was observing or studying him, which was probably a good idea to remain rather still as though his attention was turned elsewhere. She turned to face him, her elbows draping up along the edge of the pool, the action forcing her back to arch, presenting her bikini-clad breasts to him. She probably knew full well what she was doing. I see, we should be fine then. Everything within expectations. He commented, For these events, it'll be likely only one of us will be physically present with you, since your audience is younger. Don't want to intimidate them, but I think for the first few I will be the one present with you. Don't worry, I won't be wearing formal attire. It makes you seem less approachable too. I have been wondering, He continued, seeing that she was open to continue conversation as though he were an acquaintance instead of an employee. His gaze lingered on her knowing that his eyes were completely shielded from her sight, enjoying the sight of glistening droplets rolling off her skin. What kinds of music or better, bands, do you enjoy? First and foremost he could think of was not liking your own pictures as they would seem embarrassing or for artists, painters and such, was that they could always spot flaws in their own drawings. Elliot remained where he was as she inquired if he would join her in the pool, silent for a second as though contemplating the young lady's invitation. Only if you invited me. A hint of a smile curved the edges of his lips as he teased, I am on duty after all. He sat up, shed his shirt and dropped it on the chair before joining her in the pool, the water lapping around his sides, the temperature of the liquid much more bearable. He was well built from constant exercise to keep his fitness and over a head taller at than her at 5'9, an impressive build but not like that of a body builder's. For the sake of us working together better in the future, would you rather less formality between the security team and yourself? Considering how she had expected him to join her that combined with her mention of not having time to do anything else, presumably her personal life, it was expected that she would want more interaction with others. He set his sunglasses along the edge of the lounge chair before diving under to allow for the water to cool his face. Still, he kept a distance from her and there was plenty of room in the pool for that. Do you have plans for dinner? Anything you'd like to have since both of us, He gestured towards the door, where beyond that was his female colleague, Are joining you for tonight and tomorrow's until ten in the morning, where we will be replaced by our colleagues. I'll have send you the team phone number as well as mine later just in case you need anything. If you have issues with my team's lineup, be sure to inform me and I'll see what I can do to remedy it. Then he became silent again, if for a bit. Allowing himself to enjoy the view as well as the sensation of the water swirling around his limbs as he rested his back solidly against the edge of the infinity pool.
