I'll have the update by today. Sorry, there is something messed up with my sleeping patterns. Or more like there is none now. xD *needs sleep soon*
Um....mature content warning for the next update? More manliness.....um.... some food.... and Keelan being an ass. ^^ Wait, the Keelan thing is normal.

Keelan waded gently into the steaming water while trying to wrestle my tank top from me. The tip of one finger bumped my chest and a flash of silver caught my eyes. My iPod was still nestled in my cleavage, the one place I normally keep it!
"Keelan!" I cried out almost falling off his hand, "I give! Let me back onto the floor and I'll undress!" One eyebrow shot above the other.
"Why all of a sudden?" he grunted. Of course it was to save my iPod, but I didn't say that.
"Oh let her go you grump," Arrow stated making a face at the other. Keelan let me off onto the cold marble. I walked over to my forgotten pants and slipped the device into one of the baggy pockets. I pulled off my shirt and toddled back to where the four were, attempting to cover myself with each step.
"I'll watch her!" Arrow said with the biggest grin I've seen yet.
"I will," Keelan bluntly retorted, "You are too much of a child, Arrow." Arrow pouted slightly but gave no resistance. His red hair ballooned behind him like a cape as he sank deeper into the steaming water. I crawled into Keelan's hand, which he dipped slightly into the warm water. Goosebumps appeared on my arms as the water lapped around me.
"You didn't get completely undressed," Keelan sighed. I flushed red. He moved further away from Catra and the others and closer to the waterfall.
"They might start getting rowdy," Keelan explained. He was staring at me. I looked past his broad chest to see the last step of the short stair wrapped along the edge of the entire bath to form a seat of sorts. The bottom of the bath was small blue and purple tiles to form some sort of picture, but it was too large for me to make out what it was. Keelan sat and sunk back until the water lapped around his neck. He sighed and closed his eyes. I took a moment to wipe anything off my face and arms.
"You're moving a lot," the giant boomed from his position, "Do you want me to lower you?" Without waiting for an answer, He lowered his hand to allow me access to more water. I dropped to my back, letting it run through my thick brown hair. I was embarrassed by my body, but Keelan wasn't looking. Suddenly, a series of large drops fell on me and the resting giant. Keelan scowled and opened his eyes.
Arrow had splashed Catra and now the two were at war, each forcing typhoon-sized waves toward the other. Gillian laughed and cheered Arrow on. Catra moved to get him once in the face. Blinking, Gill adopted a mischievous smirk. He climbed out to face the two. I blushed and looking at Keelan saw that his pale face was as red as mine. Scars littered Gill's chest and what looked like an old arrow wound shone from his navel area. His body was taunt, ready to use every muscle the guard had to accomplish what he got out to do.
"Never mess with the guard!" he roared before jumping on top of Arrow and Catra. Keelan coughed as if to clear his head.
"I guess size does matter, hmmm?" I asked Keelan. He sharply pulled his hand from under me, letting me slip into the deep water. I went under. I flailed to get back to the surface before anything happened or I saw anything, but Keelan stood. His happy trail was eye level with me. He quickly moved, joining me under the surface. I was in shock. His hair was silver, but his trail had been black hair. His hands appeared under me. His clear blue eyes, almost glowing in the dimly lit water, were worried. We surged up to break the surface, the perfume and air stinging my eyes.
"What was that for you over-sized jerk?" I shouted at him desperately rubbing the distilled perfume from my burning eyes. I found that I was rubbing tears too.
"I was worried when you didn't come back up," he said bluntly wringing out his hair with a freed hand, "Can you not swim?" He was changing the subject to hide the fact I had wounded his male pride.
"I can! But.... why are you two-toned Kool-aid?" I coughed as he flicked some of the droplets from his hair onto me. He was staring.
"All in good time," he sighed thoughtfully, "If you are still here and alive, I will tell you about myself. Until then, you better not do anything to displease me. I can hold a grudge....when I want to." His face was red again and he refused to look at me.
"Keelan! Are you done?" Catra called out from the other side of the baths.
"Yes," the one holding me grunted. He walked slowly and carefully back the the stair.
"You smell has improved, little one," he joked poking me lightly with one of his slender fingers. His build was lithe compared to Gill's muscle. Even Arrow, the second thinnest, seemed to have more brawn then Keelan.
But what was with the 'little one' title? He knew my name.
Catra stood there with his hand out for me. A smile lit up his features. Without the mud, dirt, and tear stains he was almost angelic in his beauty. Keelan tilted his hand ever so slightly allowing me to tumble gently into Catra's palm. Keelan pulled the last robe from the closet and pulled it securely on. He looked at my cold form, me trying to cover and warm myself with my arms, before pulling out a light blue hankercheif. He pulled is thumb through it twice and ripped the top unevenly. Catra and Gill gasped.
"Keelan? What was that for? You love your han...?" Gill gasped as Keelan held it out for me to grab.
"Here," he snorted. I took it from him. The soft material flowed like silk, but felt like cotton. I slipped my arms through the holes and wrapped it warmly around me. It was shorter than I expected, but still too long for me. Gill lifted the bottom and tore a thick, almost straight piece off of it and offered it to me.
"To tie it shut," he smiled. I took the strip for his thick fingers and tied it around me. The makeshift robe fit nicely.
"Where did Arrow go?" I asked shyly, just noticing the flaming red-head had vanished.
"It is supper, isn't it?" Catra asked. Keelan curtly nodded.
"Well, we better go. You know how Arrow is to people who are late to supper," Gill sighed with a smile. We left the baths together, Keelan in the lead and Gill trailing behind.
Weird thing was, I noticed my cloths had vanished from the floor. I already began fretting about the fate of my beloved iPod. Moaning, I slumped against Catra's fingers.
"I think we are all in your state," the giant chuckled deeply, "I am so hungry!" I heard his stomach let out a long growl and something else, something strange.

Click. Click. Click. The sharp sound of heels striking the tiled floor echoed in the hall silencing the three I was with.
"Is that?" Keelan gasped, "Hide her!" He spun around and frantically looked for a place for me to conceal myself from whatever was coming. Catra's wide eyes were frozen on the bend in the hall.
"Catra! Give her to Gillian!" hissed the retainer nudging Catra roughly in the ribs. Catra handed me unceremoniously to Gill who dumped me onto his shoulder. He flicked his hair to cover my form from prying eyes just as the mystery person turned the corner.
He had to be as tall as Keelan without the heeled boots. His hair was cropped short and a stunning copper hue. His cold golden green eyes snapped on the three other giants. In his hands was the handle to a silver tea tray complete with cookies on a plate. He strode confidently to where we were.
"Sullyman," Keelan curtly hissed.
"Good greetings Keelan. Gillian. Lord Catra," Sullyman said with a short nod. Gillian tensed from under me. I could faintly hear him grinding his teeth.
"How is my sister?" Catra asked, his face pale.
"She is well and thinking of you," Sullyman stated. His eyes almost robotically scanned the trio as if looking for the source of their nerves. They fell on my hiding place.
"Gillian," Sullyman quietly said stepping forward, "You have an insect in your hair. Hold still." His slender hand reached for me and touched Gill's thick hair. Sullyman's eyes widened with the smallest gasp. 'Human?' he mouthed with a slight blush to his cheeks. He gaze was forced off of me by Gill's thick hand, which had wrapped around his wrist.
"Did you get it?" he asked in a quiet, venom-filled voice. Sullyman's amazed expression swiftly returned to the stony look of cold disinterest.
"It flew off," he stated bluntly, "And Arrow is looking for you." With that, he pushed gently past Gill and trod off, looking back to where I was once before vanishing down the hall with the tea set.
"I hate my sister's habits," Catra moaned, "Her evening tea that she hardly drinks among many other things." A sigh of relief filled the hall.
"Did he see you? Because if Seraphina's dog barks, you're dead," Keelan stiffly inquired. I shook my head.
"I don't think so. But who was he? And who is Seraphina?" I stammered. The way the three of them put up their defenses must have meant he had been powerful. And how did he know I was a human? Had he seen humans before?
"He is my sister's attendant," Catra explained, "And Seraphina is my sister."
"Witch," Gill added, "She is more of a witch then a loving sister." Catra hung his head.
"You are late!" Arrow's voice echoed down the hall. A fist slammed into the back of Keelan's head sending him sprawling to the ground with a booming cry.
"Arrow!" the floored giant shouted. Arrow had a menacing pout etched on his features.
"We are coming," Gill soothed pushing Arrow gently forward. Arrow gave no resitence, but moved as if to lead the gang.
"Why is it always me?" growled Keelan getting to his feet and rubbing the back of his head.
"I will hit you again!" warned Arrow and Keelan closed his mouth, fuming but silent.
"Hey Amy," Arrow asked, suddenly very close, "You will eat with us, right? I worked hard!" I nodded to the giant's joy. Blush outlined the stars on his face as he smiled and backed away from my spot.
"If you want my hand, I can let you on," Gill said holding up a hand.
"I'm fine! I think I'll hide for just a bit longer. Just in case," I replied. I grabbed a lock of his bushy black hair and hugged it close. We entered the dining hall and I gasped.
