He accepted the kiss, returning it, this time being more intimate, more serious. He held her closer, moving himself closer as well. He was still calm about this, but still passionate at the same time. Something most found odd about him. He noticed how nervous he was making her again, mentally smiling. It was the good kind of nervous, he knew, so he didn't have a problem with it.
He kept it going, enjoying the moment as much as he possibly could.

Ski just melted into his arms as he drew closer. Slightly surprise by the passionate way he was kissing her. She had never kissed a man until now let alone been kissed like that. Her arms moving to around his neck holding into the moment as long as possible. drawing him down to her more she was amazed at how calm he was and nearly jealous of it. Her cheeks were lighting in color but her heart was still racing.
The air seemed thicker and more masking around the pool. Wandering if anyone was going to walk in on them or not at this point.

Sirion pulled back slowly, looking at her. She was lit up. She probably could barely breath.
Just then he noticed from the corner of his eye a towel floating along the water. He didn't quite want to look down to see whose it was, out of fear of upsetting Ski by seeing something she didn't want him to, so he just looked at her calmly, putting a hand on her cheek and stroking her skin with his thumb.
"You know... I think one of us is missing our towel... I don't think it's me, so... yeah..." he said, still partly in the moment, also unsure of how to say what he was trying to say. Footsteps echoed down the stone hallway that lead to where they were, so he waited to see what she'd do before looking up in case he needed to cover her himself.

Ski froze for a moment as she realized he was saying it was her. She stood there wondering just how that had happened. Slightly embarrassed now but not that much seeing as it was only Sirion. Pushing up against him to hide it a little more she kind of thought after wards that wasn't the best of ideas.
Glancing to the side as she heard the foot steps she let out a little yelp as she broke from Sirion's arms to reach for the towel while dipping down into the water more. Two very bad things to be doing at the same time as she slipped and went completely under. Her head popped up just so the water was below her neck as she gasped for air and her long purple hair hung all over her head and in her face. She was so clumsy sometimes.

Sirion went deeper with her, making sure she was okay, grabbing her towel with him as he went. He pressed her closer, making sure that his back was all that would be visible to this intruder, handing her her towel as he did so. And all without taking so much as a glance below her face.
As the towel was going to her a man peeked in their room, looking at them. The man from before.
"Oh! I'm-I'm sorry, I was just checking to make sure everything was good and... Right, I'll just, uh, go now, I-I guess..." he said nervously, retreating as soon as he could. Yet another person to receive the wrong impression.
"Well, here's your towel back... You okay, Ski?" he asked, looking back into her eyes, moving away so she wouldn't feel awkward.

Ski felt a rush when the man came in. It was awkward for someone to see them like this then again why was it?
"Yes I am alright thank you. Just another clumsy moment." She said taking her towel back and pulling it around her font. It seemed kind of pointless now but she was still slightly shy about it.
"He probably thinks we are some kind of intimate couple or something." realizing just after her wording wasn't really what she meant. "I didn't mean it to sound like that would be a bad thing... What i meant was... just." Ski just finally gave up leaning against the edge of the pool. as she covered her eyes with her arm sure she had pushed Sirion away with her little slip up.

"You don't have to explain anything to me, Ski, I understand the situation completely. You don't have to talk anymore if yo... Wait, something's wrong," Sirion stated, a sudden look of urgency coming to his face. As soon as he heard that a scream echoed through the halls, one of pain and death. Sirion rushed to get out of the pool, hard with all the water, but he managed. He looked back at Ski after getting out.
"Stay here. Luckily for us there's only one entrance but... Oh, no, damn it all..." he said, looking for his blade. He had left it back at the inn. This wasn't good. He looked up, for the first time in his life bearing a nervous expression on his face. Not only were two lives at stake here, but he didn't know if he'd be able to pull this off... He hoped for the best, waiting.

Ski froze what could it possible be now. It couldn't be anyone after her not after what happened just the other day. The time line didn't make sense. Seeing Sirion's face she knew what is was from. His weapons were no where to be found.
Looking to her clothes she sorted through a few things before getting out of the pool with her large white shirt hanging off her body much like a night shirt. Putting her small dagger into his hand she stood behind him.
"It isn't much but it is all I have." she said with a sad face she couldn't give him more to work with.

He twirled the knife in his hand, slicing at the air quickly to test the dagger's ability range. It wasn't as good as his blade, but he could work with it. He held it at his waist, looking at Ski.
"Thank yo-..."
Sirion was cut off. His eyes froze in place, a shocked expression on his face. A man whispered into his ear.
"We only want the girl. Everyone else can die, and that you shall," he said, pulling the blade from Sirion's back. He didn't go too deeply in, but it was enough. Sirion fell to the ground, eyes still blank, blood pooling below him.
The man stared at Ski, slicing at the air so the blood would come off his blade.
"Now, Skilynn, it's time for you to come with me. Obey and I won't hurt you," he said quietly with a slightly dark tone to his voice.

Ski backed up in horror not only was there another guy after her but Sirion was wounded and she didn't know how badly either which was the most frightening of everything. All she saw was the blood and it was enough to send awful things into her mind. Then panic as the man advanced on her. If she went they there was no telling what they would do, let alone what would happen to Sirion no she couldn't do that.
Making up she had hit something with the back of her legs. Looking down it was where the steam was coming from. Glancing into the whole there were hot coals no doubt to make even more steam. Couching down as if in fear and partly was. she reached her hand down into the hot coals as the man got closer. Not having given an answer she thought it was clear as she flung the hot coals into the man's eyes.
knowing she had got him got she used the time to sneak behind him to Sirion taking back her dagger she threw it at the man trying to hit him between the shoulder blades of his back. she knew that would be the most effective spot to hit.
