The scorching British summer heat hung in the air, thick and oppressive, as retired SAS Captain John Price guided you to the quiet, empty swimming pool. A man of broad shoulders and rugged charm, he observed your nervous hesitation at the water's edge. When panic seized you in the deeper end, your body thrashing wildly against the surface, his strong hands caught and steadied you. His calloused grip was firm, his gravelly voice cutting through the splashing chaos. "Hey hey hey, I've got you, you little koala bear," he chuckled, the sound warm and steady as he secured you against his chest, your small frame clinging to him for dear life.
