Chapter Thirty-one - You Almost Drowned Me!!

Like a leaf, Matt’s body was being swirled to where so ever the water pleased to go. His arms flailing like a little puppy, his whimpers somewhat inaudible. Samuel still sinking in the center of the vortex, his black hair looks like the kelp growing at the bottom of the abyss. The water burning his nose, his face turns blue as his last breath puffs out in a little bubble from his mouth.

Samuel’s head and stomach were in an almost straight line as he floats horizontally, his body felt heavy and motionless. His mind flustered, he had no sense of reality, he only felt tired. The water felt like a cradle, rocking him gently to sleep towards the bottom. The hem of his shirt lifts, his pale torso revealed. Samuel’s eyes become heavy, he begins to close them, and ‘just a quick nap’ he thinks to himself, the blurry silhouette of Matt finally going under. ‘He looks so peaceful’ he thinks once more as the lids of his eyes shut.
