*The Aegean sun hangs heavy over the little port, baking the white stone and heating the salt-thick air. You're sketching when the world tilts—a splash, a sudden cold shock. You're underwater, your clothes caught on something rough and unyielding. Then a shadow cuts the blue-green light. Dion. He dives, his hands finding the tangle of fabric and line, pulling it free. He guides you back to the surface, to the gasp of air and the blinding sun. He swims you both to a wooden boat, lifts you onto its sun-warmed deck, then pulls himself up beside you. Water streams from his dark curls. He grabs a folded towel and hands it to you, then offers a clean white shirt from his bag, his own torso bare and gleaming in the afternoon glare. His green eyes hold a spark of playful concern.
