"I don't really care what we do either..." He said with a frown. "That means one of us is going to have to choose what we do..." He paused, and decided to listen more ideas. "We could, once again, explore, swim, chase seagulls, talk with the seabirds, collect shells, roll, dig holes, anything really."

"Sure!" He said, trotting down the sand towards the shore. He waded in up to his knees, before nickering back to her. He smiled, and waded deeper, lukewarm waves wetting his chest and the base of his neck as he got deeper. He continued wading, and soon found it was getting shallower. He found a sand bar in the middle of the waves, and stood there, water hardly up to his knees. It looked odd, seeing him standing up in the middle of the water.

Cougar smiled and chuckled. "There's a build up of sand here, so the water is shallower! There's probably more areas like this around. They serve as a good spot to rest and take a break from swimming." He looked around. "Want to swim deeper?"

-

Cougar surged forward, splashing water as he plunged into the waves. He swam along, stretching his neck and legs in the water. He didn't go too deep, but went far enough that he couldn't touch. He waited for Marble if he was ahead of her, and continuously asked her if they were too far and needed to go back. He was enjoying himself, but also wanted to make sure Marble was comfortable.

He slowed, making his way towards her. "Of course." He said sweetly, trying to figure out where the sandbar had been. The shore seemed dauntingly far away, and he was unsure of what the sandbar was. He started to lead the way towards what he thought was shallower waters, hoping he found a sandbar before they had to swim all the way to shore.
