Day 9 - Out of order

Confession: Not all chapters are written in a linear order... including the one I'm currently working on.

With the exception of the first paragraph, yesterday's words were all plot (more like a skeleton than an actual story). I went back through and added a layer of detail before continuing with the rescue attempt (because a gentleman can't let a lady drown, despite her trespassing on the property). However, as I'm thinking about tonight's words, I realize I will need to expand upon the scene, because the image in my mind is much more desperate than it currently reads. And, if Patrick is voluntarily drenching his clothing and suffering through an invasion of his privacy, it better be a life or death situation.
