Author's Note: I have a dream once of how I am saving Chaz Galloway from being drowned in a swimming pool despite how in real life; I am not very much of a swimmer however Paula is very much a strong and an experienced swimmer as she learns how to swim at a very young age just as the same time she learns how to surf and body board after she arrived to Hawaii with her British father James Thompson whom she got her last name from however she never ends up using that surname as she kept answering on 'Paula Leah' whenever people would ask her 'What is your name?' when she is younger except when she tried to answer 'Paula Leah Thompson' to the question; people would end up looking at her weirdly as 'who is Paula Leah Thompson?' when she mostly ended up answering 'My name is Paula Leah' when she is younger as people would ask her the question 'What is your name [Young lady]?'--she ends up answering 'My name is Paula Leah' during her younger generation; therefore her father legally ends up deciding to change her name from 'Paula Leah Thompson' to just 'Paula Leah' ever since she only answers with her two names ever since she never uses her father's surname since he knows she is part of his family.
However, I know I hadn't post anything in months except I felt as if I wanted to do more writing this time ever since I got an idea of a face claim on Allisha Gray as Paula Leah in my very own writing project that I did additionally you know that I am becoming a big fan of the WNBA ever since around either in the middle of the year on last year or slightly late last year ever since I have officially becoming a big fan of the Dallas Wings to be honest.
Plus I know this is only my first writing on my personal blog ever since the last time I did a Fan Fiction is on the December of last year thus I felt as if I am running out of ideas however ever since I am going do the writing that I have the ideas on my mind--then I'll definitely start writing it in a physical copy in my notebook as a paper and pen copy then I'll write it on my Pages additionally my phone if there is a much more important ideas [Which I very seldom have] therefore I'll do any of the writing on whatever I have in my mind additionally if I like the writing then I'll publish it however if I don't like the writing; then I'll keep it private mostly until when I decided to plan on either publishing the writing or to delete it if I didn't like it.
Anyway, this writing does reminds me of how Ariel does save Eric from the burning ship wreck from 'The little mermaid' which is one of my favorite Disney Movies and story I enjoyed as a kid personally as I also enjoyed the sequel followed by the prequel as well in particular to be honest.
Disclaimer: This is only a work of fiction therefore there is no need to take it seriously as if this happens in real life or in reality.
Plus I don't own any of the images as none of the images are mine--credits to Dallas Wings and Twitter for the image of Allisha Gray on a video which is a video titled 'Get to know the wings: Allisha Gray' via Twitter and credits of the image of Chaz Galloway goes to Hawaii Athletics (And their official website); University of Hawaii, University of Hawaii Men's Volleyball team for the lovely image of Chaz Galloway on his second freshman year. (Personally I'd think this picture has to be one of the best portrait picture I have seen of Chaz Galloway although his picture had changed on his sophomore year however nothing beats this one though--I would love to see one with his new hair style before he change his hair style ever since I prefer the way it is originally--plus credits of the second image of Chaz and the third image of this post goes to University of Hawaii, UH Athletics Department; Spectrum Sports Hawaii; UH Volleyball Fan via YouTube and YouTube for the third image of this post on Chaz.)
P.S Re-edited because of the spelling issues I ended up having.
One morning; as I am walking on the side of the swimming pool: there wasn't too many people ever since it had been a very cool morning despite how the morning skies may look grey this morning ever since I first arrived.
However while I am placing my bag at the side; I heard a voice being called out and it is a male voice that calls out a word loud and clear in just one word: "Help!"
As I look up while he is now lying down in the middle of the swimming pool and I thought it is just another guy however it turns out to be someone I am very familiar with.
Just as when I am looking for something in my bag; the guy's voice suddenly become more and more clearer when he is calling for help: "Help! Somebody help me here!"
"Hang in there; I am coming to save you!" I called as this time I pulled out my pair of my transparent goggles and I put it on without any hesitation as I run plus dive into the swimming pool without having a second thought or any hesitation about how I might get injured if I dive from the side of the pool or to think about having the time to tie my long hair into a ponytail or a bun ever since I need to save him despite the warning that says 'No diving' and how deep the swimming pool is except I have no time to simply wait for a lifeguard to come here ever since I got to do something before something critical happens.
As I dive in, I start swimming rapidly in a freestyle stroke at first then it morphs into a butterfly stroke that I am swimming in while my legs are kicking so fast that I don't know if I am swimming really fast as to break a past swimming record by a former swimmer back in the past or to even get a record for swimming so fast that I could get a gold medal for swimming so rapidly in a mixed relay of strokes.
While I manage to reach the fifth or the sixth lane; he starts choking on the chlorine water as I surface to gasp for air and when he got his head up; he called my name for the very first time as if he recognize me for the first time in a month or two since the separation between the both us after he had cheated on me with another girl back in his home town San Diego: he gasps as he said my name "Paula! I am . . . (*coughing*) I am . . . so happy to (*more coughing*) . . . to see you: Paula . . ."
"Chaz! Don't move, I'll try to free you; okay? Just relax otherwise you would ended up drowning yourself; okay?" I called as I look at his right wrist on how it got tied up with a white rope as it felt it is the same with his left wrist followed by both of his ankles.
He nods quietly as I take a huge gasp of air while I dive back into the water and examine the knot on his right wrist--the way the guys tied the rope on his wrist is not too long ago therefore the knot wasn't too tight [Thankfully] nor it is too lose therefore I decided to see how I can untie the knot.
As I untie the knot slowly, he suddenly lose all of his energy therefore I got to work fast.
After freeing his right wrist from the first rope; I got do his right ankle which is the same result as the right wrist.
Plus for the other two on the left side of his body; it is the same result despite how removing the knot on the left ankle a little more harder but I manage to do it anyway.
While the ropes sinks to the bottom of the swimming pool; Chaz's body suddenly sink into the swimming pool and I knew I got to do something quick before he drowns; as I grab him with both of my arms: swimming to the surface as pulling his body is harder than I thought however I managed to pull him to the surface anyway.
As I pull him to the surface as I break the water surface for a gasp of air, I panted as I knew I have to bring him to the dry land which is tricky because I don't want to pull his body under water the whole time therefore I decided to pull his body to the top of the race lane while I duck down to pull his body and do the same time until I reach the ladder that gets you out of the swimming pool but pulling his body out of the swimming pool is a lot trickier than I thought because this is a race relay swimming pool; not a recreational swimming pool I've seen before in apartment buildings; houses and hotels as well as resorts.
"Come on, Chaz: come on." I said as I am panting while swimming to one side of the barriers which separates the eight race lane swimmers usually have to swim and I have to do it all the way from lane five to lane one.
As I put his body on top of the race lane barrier; I duck under water and pulled his body to do the same on the next race lane.
By the time when I got to the first lane; I find it to be really tricky to pull his body out of the swimming pool ever since the ladder is too small for two people to get out of the pool except I need to get him out of the pool for real.
I thought for a second then when I realize his body sinks as I carry him with only one arm; I suddenly go 'Oops!' then I hold his body with both of my arms and I decided to pull both of his arms onto the dry land.
Thus while I pulled myself out of the swimming pool; I pull both of his arm out while his body slide on the hard, wet and slippery floor I have to be really careful of--one slip and I could get hurt [unfortunately].
Thankfully I manage to pull his body out of the pool safely and I put him on one of the pool deck chair which is provided by the University of Hawaii as well.
"Chaz, Chaz: Chaz." I said after I put my pair of transparent goggles up on my fore head and I start pressing his chest a few times while I doing my best to perform CPR.
Except while I am doing CPR; Paul who is an Asian American just as we clicked together instantly as good friends as I told him I am a multi-racial with a descendant of an Asian mum/ mom and a British dad plus as one of my team mates on the swim team additionally who is a guy who sometimes hang with Chaz whenever I am busy with the girls call to me "Paula, what are you doing here?"
"Paul! I'm here because someone tied Chaz in the swimming pool here this morning." I replied to him while I am looking at him--Eliza would told me that he is a good looking guy as she found that many of the Asian American guys are yet she loves how kind-hearted he is yet other than swimming, he is a big fan of BTS: dancing [Especially hip-hop dance ever since he told he wants to learn hip-hop dancing as well when Coach Elliot and assistant coach Diana had did a break the ice exercise to getting to know the other swimmers plus to even learn more about them additionally may be to become friends with them.]; cooking different type of home cooked dishes he learned from his parents and having a future on either becoming a business man to run his own business or to become a chef or if he plans on staying in Hawaii--then he plans on training and becoming a life guard on doing his life guard duties on one of the beaches in Hawaii.
"What?! That's crazy. On another note; is he responding?" He replied as he got to the deck chair at where I am while reacting with a mix of shock and anger however his voice soften when he ask me about how C is responding to the CPR I am doing.
"I don't know, could you help me, Paul?"
"Don't worry, I got you; I'm working on it: Paula."
"Thank you, you're the best: Paul."
"Anytime, Paula." He replied as he and I both pressed at the same time yet C started coughing up the water a few times before we both react to how he is responding to the CPR we are doing a few times.
"Whoa, did he respond?!" He ask as he jumped back while I take a step back or two with an astonished facial expression we have.
"I think he did; Paul." I replied to him with a shrug.
After coughing up a few times, Chaz asked "Ugh . . . hey guys; what am I . . . doing here?"
"Actually I found out you are being tied up in the swimming pool as a 'so-called' prank, sweetie." I replied to him; looking at him with a true emotion of concern.
"Yeah, it's like someone or somebody wants to do a "so-called" prank on you; Chaz." Replied Paul as when he said the words on 'A 'so-called' prank on you'; he scowls in true anger that he felt as if he wants to do a search party for the person who is responsible for doing this towards him and getting to fight against the person who is responsible for the prank.
"Exactly, you don't deserve this type of prank; Chaz." I whisper softly as he coughs up more water and then after that; he did a final cough before he sigh as he collapse in my arms.
"Yeah; dude: I'll see if any of the cafe is open then may be we can provide a cup of warm water followed by an explanation on who does it to Chaz." Adds Paul before he runs off to get a cup of warm water and getting a help from one of the coaches.
"Plus the explanation from me on how I had saved him from drowning while I am swimming so fast though." I said as I sighed.
~
As he got back with coach Elliot and assistant coach Diana; neither of them are happy about how Chaz got tied up in the swimming pool as a so-called prank; I hand the cup of warm water to Chaz which he confirmed to me it does feel slightly hot when he drinks the water.
"I know but you got to drink it up, okay?" I said while he drinks the cup of water as luckily one of barista recognizes Paul as he knows he [Paul] is a good friend of mine therefore he decided to give him a complimentary cup of warm water he deserves to be honest.
C nods as he drinks up the water in one sip.
"Whoa there; Chaz; not too fast; one small gulp at a time: okay?" I coaxed him softly as I am stroking his arm.
Chaz's P.O.V
I nodded as she told me to drink the water slowly ever since she had saved me from drowning in this swimming pool; she looks at me in the eye full of concern and sadness yet I felt a lot of mixed feelings that I couldn't even read right now.
I still don't know who would do this to me however I knew that she had saved me thankfully and I felt a lot of waves on gratitude; joy and happiness ever since she had saved me from drowning in a swimming pool.
"Chaz," she whispered my name softly while she is staring at me with a lot concern; gratitude and love as well as hope.
"Paula," I whispered my name very softly as well to let her listen to me and my voice as I whisper her name softly out of of love and gratitude as tears started watering my eyes while I am staring at her softly.
"I miss you, I really miss you a lot--dearly." She whispered to me softly.
"Me too," I whispered to her then I add equally with a sad smile as tears starts falling from both pair of my eyes: "I miss you too, Paula."
"I love you so much, Chaz. And I really miss you too; Chaz. I miss you so dearly," She said to me with sadness in her voice as tears started to fall from her pair of her eyes too.
"And I miss you too; Paula: I miss you so much that I started to think of you every day as well." I replied to her as I wipe her tears off from her face.
She gives out a soft sob while I wipe her tears away with my left hand.
"And I love you too, Paula: I love you so much: Paula Leah." I speak up softly thus the coaches and Paul didn't heard a word we had said to each other and this is the first time I mentioned her full name for the very first time.
"I love you too, my dear." She replied as she lets out another sob softly as I wipe another of her tears.
Paula's P.O.V (Narrator's P.O.V)
When he wipe my tears away, I started crying softly ever since we got back together for the very first time and I am so happy that he and I--we are truthfully back together; I thought we are not going back to each other ever since the both of us are planning to move on from there however after I saved him from a drowning accident; it turns out he did truthfully cares about me and he did truthfully love me for real.
I thought he would only love me for something else instead of loving me for the real me; however Chaz thinks that I am just a person who is different from many people and just like a millions of people on planet earth; I got a story to tell to everyone but I couldn't because it is so easy for people to judge me however there are people who did still truly care about me for me and people who did understand me or acknowledge me for what I am going through in my own life.
And yet there are people who love me for me, my dad James Thompson; my best friend Eliza, my team mate and good friend Paul and now; here it is Chaz Galloway. (Plus his own family too as well.)
"Oh Paula . . ." He whispered my name softly as he wipes more of my tears away softly while I am sobbing quietly with quiet sobs I decided to let my voice out to let go of the pain.
"Paula." He said my name as he holds my face in both of his hands: I stared at him while my eyes are still feeling sore from the crying that I am experiencing.
I stared at him however I ended saying nothing towards him.
"I want to let you know that you are the one and only girl that I love you no matter what even if we had a fight or if we had to go through the bad times here; there and everywhere, Paula. I want to let you know that you are the only one girl that I want to be with you for the rest of my life."
Before I could say anything; he said to me "Even when we are apart [As either best friends or just strangers with memories we had in the past as the best of exes]; I'll still be with you no matter what; Paula--I'll be with you in spirit no matter what: Paula; even if you are dating and loving somebody else; don't worry, as long as any one can treat you in the way that both of you wanted to be treated by how the both of you want to treat each other; I'll still be with you in spirit no matter what--just as how god never leaves you and he is always listening to you no matter what you are going through in your very own precious life: Paula Leah."
"Wow, Chaz--I just really don't know what to say here: Chaz." I replied just as Chaz pull me into his arms.
"Me too, but right now; I want to enjoy this moment: Paula." He replied as he takes a deep breath as I know he is about to kiss me.
"Yes, Chaz; I am ready . . ." I whisper as I am falling into the love spell of Chaz Galloway himself.
As he kisses me, I let myself loose as my lips lock in with his lips: I just couldn't help but falling in love with him again.
Although I wanted to move on someone else at one in my very own life however when he told me 'Even when we are apart; I'll still be with you no matter what [In spirit]; Paula. Never forget that, Paula. Never forget who you truly are; Paula.'; I felt as if I wanted to fall for Chaz all over again just as when we first met each other at Mission Beach back in San Diego when I am still looking for a job while having to heal a heart break from an ex-boyfriend and going through a rough time with my dad; he makes me want to fall in love with him over and over again.
