Almerin was about to say something about her single status, maybe ask her out subtly. Well that was until she spat soda all over him. "Ew! Germs!" He tried to wipe all of it off but he was laughing way to hard, in fact he was laughing so hard he ended up falling over sideways into the sand.
It took him about a good minute to recover and lift himself up from the sand, chest heaving from laughter. It took him a few more seconds to regain his composure. "I find it... Well kind of hard to think a girl like you is single." He attempted to flirt with her smoothly, not adressing the fact that she spat soda all over him.

Gemma blushed reder than her hair. "I am so sorry." She said. She had just spit soda on this guy now he was laughing at her. She put her head in her hands and let herself fall to the sand on her side. She sighed as she tried to hide behind her hands. Maybe he wont be able to see me? No, that was a rediculous though.
Gemma felt kind of flattered though that Alme found it hard to think that she would be single. But she was still too busy being embarrassed to even really care at the much. "Having soda come out your nose burns..." She said.

"It's alright, I got a good laugh out of it. And I would think soda out the nose would hurt a lot." Almerin said with a small smile, crouching down and poking her head playfully. "So uh, I have another question to ask you." He said, pulling his finger away. /Oh geeze, take a deep breath Almerin.../
He took a deep breath and it helped a bit. "Maybe...Sometime... We might be able to go someplace together? Dinner, a movie, something?" Honestly he couldn't beleive he actually got the courage to ask her out. And he really hoped that she didn't think he was joking.

Gemma couldn't help but smile. It was pretty funny that she had just asaulted this guy with her 'germy' soda. She reluctantly pulled her hands away from her face and sat up, hoping the blush was at least half way gone. She zipped up her bag and then crossed her arms over her stomach self-consciously.
Gemma was a bit surprised at first when Alme asked her out. "Oh, sure." She said, picking at chipped nail polish on her finger nails. "So how about that swim?" She stood up and waited for Alme to answer.

"Sure, and that's great. I was kind of afraid that you'd say no. It seems like you should be going out with some popular hot guy or something." Almerin said, although that probably wasn't helping his case. Why should he remind her of her options above him?! Although she had already said yes...
As he looked back at her, Almerin could have sworn she was lightly blushing. /Probably just sun burn, what would someone like her have to be embarrased about?/ He thought, and without even realizing it he lightly blushed himself.

Gemma frowned when Alme said she should be going out with some popular guy. "They're all jerks, every single one of them." She said, maybe a little too harshly. "Why were you afraid I'd say no?" She asked curiously.
Gemma took Alme's hand and started to lead him down to the ocean. When they got down to the water she let go of his hand and slowly walked in until it was up to her knees. "You coming or not?" She walked out a little further until it was up to her hips. The water felt great on such a hot day, especially now that she realized she had been sweating slightly.

"I don't know, just because you're about the only person I know here. I wouldn't want to make you hate me for asking to soon, you know?" Almerin said, flashing a smile. "It would really mess up something, because I'm going to admit it- you're really pretty." What was with the sudden confindence? As far as he was concerned Almerin wasn't going to question it.
He blinked and hesitated as Gemma asked him if he was coming into the water. "Of course!" He finally answered, running out to where she was. The water went up to a bit past his knees. "This feels really good, I can finally get the sand out of my toes!" He joked.

Gemma nodded. "Yeah, I guess." She said to his 'wouldn't want to make you hate me'. When he said that she was pretty she smiled and blushed slightly. "Thanks," she didn't really know why she blushed, it's not like it was the first time she had been called pretty.
Gemma giggled slightly and slashed Alme. "Is my spit all washed off?" She tried to joke so it wouldn't look like she was too embarrassed about the whole thing. She walked out a little more ways into the ocean until the water was past her belly button.

"No problem, I don't give out compliments all to easy just so you know." This was the most confident he'd ever felt around a girl in his entire life! Normally he'd get all embarrassed and do stupid things, sort of like how he was acting previously. Maybe this boost in confidence wasn't all that bad of a thing after all.
As she asked if her spit was washed off, he laughed. "Yes, yes I think it is! If not I can always just throw my trunks in the washer and take a shower when I get home. No harm no foul right?" Almerin said with a kind smile. He walked a bit further too, the water was just about up to his belly-button where he was standing.

Gemma smiled and shrugged. "I guess that would work. And it's totally your fault for making me laugh." She stuck out her tongue and walked out deeper into the water before disspearing under the surface. She came back up a couple of yards away and stuck her tongue out at Alme again. "Bet you can't catch me."
Gemma wiped her hair out of face and smoothed it all completely back. She laid back and floated on the surface of the water as she waited to see if Alme would actually try to chase her or not. She gazed up at the clouds, smileing at one that looked almost like a perfect square. She couldn't help but think of SpongeBob, she was in the ocean afterall, right?

"Yeah, totally. I suppose it's my fault that you had a drink in your hand too?" Almerin said with a small smile. "But you know what, it's okay because I'm used to having people blame everything on me." He joked, as she went under he wondered if she drowned, then sent it to the back of his mind as ridiculous. Right after he did so she resurfaced a few yards away.
With no warning at all he lowered his body down to where it was almost fully in the water and kicked off the ground, surging forward and swimming strongly. "Bet I can catch you!" He said teasingly, laughing and getting some sea water in his mouth by accident.
