(Y? A month has passed it should have went into winter. And ether way hes not crazy I did say there must have been a under ground river, and the hint that mist is coming off gives it a temperature thats higher then the current temperature. And Im pretty sure no one as been online to up date it yet. And if you play TOT the lake doesnt freeze for some stupid reason XD)

There was not a wick of ice on the water, better yet it was warmer then usual. The mist coming off the lake meant it was warmer then the current temperature and her knew that for sure because when he works in the mines he finds them all the time. It was cold at all, it was more like a hot tub. He smiled and relaxed. His head just peeking out of the water. It was relaxing, he really did like swimming here. Jaron smiled while scratching the back of his once more. (Hes wearing boxer shorts encase you thought something else) Jaron smiled and laughed waving at them. “The water is warm I’m serious. IF you want put you feet in I’m not telling a lie. Kitty if you want you can come in to” Jaron says before he dunks his head under water making his hair got down. His hai laid over his face like a emover.

[October was fall, November is winter. Any further arguing in this topic will result in consquences.]

"I don't think Ian would mind you crashing at our place," Kitty said thinking over the Jaron's question. Then she realized that everyone else had started up a whole other question about swimming. The river was an unusual place to swim, nietherless in the middle of winter as well. The thought was enough of a conundrum to make Kitty second guess herself.

"Wha?" she said hopelessly confused. Zoning out used to be a problem to her, but she thought she got over that a long time ago. Apparently not according to this situation. It was embarrising to the point she covered her face and started laughing. The whole situation was weird. There was a blushing woman in a kimono, Riss was bewildered that Jaron gave her a scarf, Genna was confused that Jaron went in the water, and Kitty was laughing at herself and the scene.

"I don't think Ian would want me to go swimming with another guy," Kitty chuckled at the thought. Ian was indeed the protective type and would get jealous in a heart beat. It was a wonder how a serious career-minded individual could fall for such a romantic. "Especially since I don't have a swim suit with me too. Besides I hate winter and couldn't stand it--even if the water is from some sort of spring."

If the water was warm enough for Jaron to be in it right now it had to be a spring of some sort. Otherwise he'd be in the hospital at the moment and Kitty would be in a sour mood for having to deal will it. Genna would be too freaked out to handle the ordeal, but Kitty wasn't possitive about the lady she just met.

Jaron laughs then gives kitty a glare. He sighs and laughs some more. “ Your so Stingy! Comon loosen up, if you want you can wear my shirt over while swimming instead of getting your cloths wet. Its like a hot bath, it relieves you of stress. And gives you a well needed rest that you don’t get from taking care of the kids, and me.” Jaron laughs at the last part as he put his hand under his bangs and pushes them up so he can see Kitty and the others. Jaron then pointed to the tree were his shirt was cloths were hanging. “I’m sure Ian would want you to have a break once in a while. And I’m sure hell be fine with it. So don’t worry, if he says something he says something and Ill take the attack. Sure I might get kicked out but Im fine with that.

Jaron was baiting Kitty and she knew it. She couldn't help but get angry at him for it. Even if she wasn't married she probably wouldn't jump in and the idea of her wearing his clothes was about enough to send her running up a wall. This was the sort of behavior she'd expect from a drunkard.

Her solution wasn't jumping in and listening to him. Quite the contrary, she decided to bend over, gather snow, and hit him in the face with a snow ball. She could have used her words; it was probably a better thing to do than pelt Jaron with a snowball. Ignoring him was a choice too, but she went with the snowball option. If it was spring she would have picked one of the other two. But snow was only on the ground during this season, so she might as well put the vile stuff to use.

The man starting saying something about the water that Riss couldn't hear. Then the man started undressing. Elizabeth pulled Riss behind her and had asked what the man was doing. Genna said swimming wasn't a good idea. Oh, he must be swimming then, thought Riss , ....ew. Riss was no genius, but she was pretty sure he started flirting with Kitty. Then Kitty hit him with a snowball.

By now the situation was just awkward for Riss; it seemed more for the older people. Unfortunately Riss was lost before she had gotten here, so she couldn't really go home. "Now I'd love to stay and chat," said Riss sarcastically ",but I've got to go home to do...not weird stuff". And with that she started walking away; better lost then scarred for life. But then she stopped, realizing if she was lost alot of bad stuff could happen. She turned back to Elizabeth. "Hey, can you help me get home?" asked Riss "Or at least to the Inn?".

((Wow, when I sleep in i miss alot...))

Next thing Genna knew, Kitty threw a snowball after the man flirted with her. She couldn't hold her giggle and just made it quiet. Soon the little girl Riss asked the woman in the kimono if she can take her home or atleast the Inn. She couldn't stay long here either.

"Yeah, I don't want to keep my family waiting,"

Genna said smiling awkardly. "See ya later," She added turning around to get back home. She sighed and she could see her visible breath as she walked.

Elizabeth nodded to them all then walked over to Riss. "Lets go now Rissa...I`ll help you get home." she smiled as she pulled riss onto her shoulders. Elizabeth started to walk down the small path to the town area the whole time thinking about Riss and Jaron. -Almost as if...no....- She shoved the thought away again.

Jaron smiles and relaxes as the snowball hits him hard. He sunk down into the water like he was knocked out. He then pops out of the water and starts laughed some more. He was most likely drunk. Even though he never was he was loaded this time and Kitty probably knew that. There was nothing wrong with him being drunk, in fact he was a happy drunk. He did some things others wouldn’t do normally. He stood out of the water, he cheeks seemed red from the cocktails he drank. It was finally getting to him. He stuttered around. He went to the tree and got dressed were no one could see him. He put on his shorts then walked out he was smiling slightly. He then put on his shirt and slouched on Kittys shoulder. He hiccupped and went into a light sleep. “Lets------go---Ho------me.”

Jaron took the snowball hit hard, maybe Kitty should have eased up a bit on it. He may have been a miner, but the face muscles weren't something typically used in the mine. She did have a strong arm and probably overdid her throw, thus making him go into some sort of daze.

The snowball conveyed the message clearly though, for the man got out and got dressed. He made the right remark saying that they should go home. Sighing deeply she nodded yes to the suggestion taking note of his red cheeks. Did the water overheat him? Was he drunk? Or she might of hit him really hard? Hopefully soon he'd get his own house--Kitty could already feel her hospitality wearing thin.

"Fine," Kitty said crossing her arms as she started to walk home.
