Only a little bit of panic was able to set in before he'd broken free from his would-be watery grave, and then it was just another swim up to the surface where yet again, he broke through with a gulp of air. But really, it was thrilling. He lived for it, for the rush of fear and the relief afterwards when he made it out of stupid situations alive.
When a voice came to him from above the falls, he craned his head to look up, a laugh bubbling from his chest. "Good advice, I'll give it a try some time!" he called back.
For a moment he treaded water, gazing upwards. Then he decided to swim around a bit, enjoying the lake before exposing himself to the now chilly air. "Will you be joining me or should I climb back up the falls?" he asked playfully, wondering if she minded the cold.
