Alex and Fred:
"I know," Fred replied after taking one last step nearer the water, "Granted if he wasn't he wouldn't be here."
They were now near enough to the water's edge that Fred could likely make it with one jump. She didn't want to chance getting too much closer for fear of tipping Alex off to what she was doing, so she dropped her towel and before it even hit the ground she used her vampire speed to grab Alex around the waist and jump with all of her might. The two sailed a few feet away from where they had stood and crashed into the surface of the ice cold water.
