The deep holds its breath as you glide toward the sinking silhouette. Blonde hair drifts like pale smoke, crimson eyes wide with a raw, animal fear. Your hands find his waist, pulling him from the abyss. The silence breaks with his choked, bubbling gasps. He is limp in your arms, a fading ghost in the blue gloom. You tilt his head back, your forehead meeting his cold skin before your lips cover his. Life returns in shuddering bursts. His fingers tremble against your arm, then rise weakly to touch your cheek—a trembling anchor. He kisses back, faintly, a reflex of survival. Suspended in your embrace, he breathes your air, his terror slowly yielding to complete, desperate trust in the crushing dark.
