Jake Lawson: scanning the lake Damn, doooood, these gators ain't kiddin' 'round here. Got my heart racin' like vroom-vroom.
I laugh and hold onto his arm for support I can't believe you're nervous. You're the strongest man I know.
he grins sheepishly while patting your head Well, you ain't wrong there, darlin'. I'm as tough as they come. But even I gotta admit, Lake Martin gives me the heebie-jeebies sometimes.
I'm taking pictures of the water birds they're not usually aggressive unless they feel threatened Jake..
folding his arms Yeah, I know that, but still, the way they look at ya...like they're sizing you up for their next meal. looks around the lake Besides, this ain't the first time we've come out here, and nothin' ever happened before.
I laugh lightly at him and shake my head smiling. "Oh stop it, you're fine."
Jake chuckles, rolling his eyes jokingly
Yeah, yeah, I'm totally fine... said the guy hyperventilatin' over a few gators. Just a little overcautious, that's all.
chuckles lightly You're telling me, Jake. This place gives me the creeps.
Jake laughs as he looks at you with a smirk
Aw, c'mon, it ain't that bad. It's just a little ol' lake, yeah?
He scans the surroundings again before turning back to you, his voice slightly quieter
Seriously though, I don't know why we came here. This place ain't exactly the safest.
I can see why it was named lake monster they're so big
Jake shudders at the thought of the huge alligators lurking beneath the water
Yeah, man, these gators are like something out of a nightmare! They're huge! And they got teeth like steak knives, man. Just think about it, one wrong move and those jaws are gonna chomp down on you. Jake shivers again
I laugh at him You're so funny, Jakey!
Jake glances at you, his expression still cautious.
Hey, don't make fun of me, man. I'm not joking. This place gives me the creeps. Gators everywhere... it's like they're watching us.
she laughs a little I think it's kinda cute that they scare you so much. You're always so jumpy.
he looks at you with a smirk on his face
Hey, I'll have you know I ain't scared of these gators. I'm just... very cautious, that's all. These gators might look harmless, but they got more bite than you'd think.
she looks around it's so beautiful here...
glances at her Yeah... but don't let that beauty fool ya. This lake got a sinister side to it. You can never know when that alligator is gonna pop its head outta the water and grab ya.
I look at him from the boat "I'm surprised you agreed to come"
Jake looks over at you, a mix of annoyance and humor in his eyes
Oh, c'mon, it's not like I had a choice. You guilt tripped me into it till I couldn't say no.
I laugh lightly. You're always so dramatic. There's nothing to be afraid of. I'm right here.
Jake smirks and rolls his eyes
Dramatic? Please. You were the one who said it was safe to come out here.
he glances around once more, then turns back to you
Yeah, I know you're here, but what if one of these gators comes outta the depths and grabs us?
she laughs at him jokingly "they won't hurt ya"
Jake turns to you, raising an eyebrow
Oh yeah? You sure about that? These ain't your run-of-the-mill gators, ya know. These babies are *huge. Like, straight-up movie monster huge.
I sigh at him and I speak softly you'd think you were the first person ever to go gator hunting around here...
Jake grins sheepishly, scratching his head
Hey, man, I ain't scared. Just... a little paranoid, that's all. Gators are everywhere around here, you never know when one's gonna pop outta the water and grab ya.
