Their fingers barely brushed against each other.

Then, Mitchel pulled with all his might, drawing Raegan into a tight embrace. They seemed to fuse together. They were tightly wrapped around each other.

"Bang!" A loud noise echoed through the air.

They hit the water hard, causing massive ripples.

As the current swept them along, Raegan's stiff body suddenly eased.

It was water! They were in water! They wouldn't die.

Raegan had always doubted her swimming skills, but once submerged, she instinctively rose to the surface, driven by a familiar sensation.

In a panic, she yelled out, "Mitchel!"

The water was eerily quiet.

Raegan took a deep breath, diving back into the depths to find him desperately.

Then, suddenly, she was lifted above the water.

Mitchel, his hair drenched, swept it back, looking strikingly handsome with droplets cascading off him. He brought her to the shore and said softly, "I'm here."

Raegan was momentarily stunned and wrapped her arms around him tightly, breaking down in tears. "You... You had scared me!"

She sobbed and choked, filled with fear. Mitchel was unbelievable! He actually jumped down with her!

She gently pounded on his shoulders, her anger mixed with relief.

“You're crazy, truly crazy..."

After expressing her frustration, she managed a grateful smile.

“Thank goodness you're okay..."

Seeing her cry and then laugh, Mitchel couldn't help but smile. Next, he wrapped his arms around her in a firm embrace. "I'm not losing my mind. I'd lose my mind without you."

Raegan felt a turmoil stir within her. It felt like a crack had opened.
