James sighed, "I warned you..." he muttered, looking upset, "But I didn't think I'd stay under for so long."

"... Being gone and being there but mentally absent are two completely different types of leaving," she explained.

James blinked, "I'm gone, my heart is gone. My identity is gone. It's the same to me."

"Not to everyone else," Yue elaborated.

James blinked, "What's the difference?" he asked.

It didn't look like Yue felt like explaining the difference.

James tilted his head a little and tried a different approach, "Why are you so hung up on it?"

"You started it," Yue retorted.

James leaned back in the hot tub with a grunt, "I don't even know what we're fighting about..." he muttered.

Yue didn't try explaining that to him either.

James reached out and nudged Yue with his foot, "I don't wanna fight," he whined a little as he started to move closer.

Yue brushed his foot away, but didn't move.

James continued to move closer until he was seated beside her. "You look hot," he suddenly complimented her.

Yue continued to ignore James for a little while. Then suddenly she stood up. "... I can't do this," she decided as she moved to get out.

"Alright, let's go take a hot shower... it's like a normal shower but with us in it." James nodded, standing along with Yue. Yue could tell James felt a little awkward too, like he didn't know how to act around her now.

"No," Yue clarified, gesturing to both of them. "This."
