[Locked to Yasmeen] Time for beer and soaking up the sun

[st_illcounts]

The pool at the hotel wasn't anything like the Harvest Fest on Leith, but it was a hell of a lot better than what was on Westerley. He missed Dutch and even D'Avin, but mostly Dutch. Johnny had left them behind on purpose, but knowing that you can get back to them any time you wanted and being cut off from them were two different things. There wasn't a doubt in his mind that he would eventually see them again. Life was not that cruel, especially after Pawter, for him not to believe in that.

The waterfall at the pool was an indulgence as was the pool bar and Johnny wasn't about to turn down either temptation. It was also more comfortable in the water, floating, than walking. It felt more like he was on Lucy with the anti-grav, which also made him a little homesick. He picked up a bottle of beer and headed toward the waterfall. It wasn't until he was just behind it, in the shadows that he noticed someone else was there. "Oh, sorry. Didn't see you. Mind if I share the space?"
