He gave a small nod, closing his eyes tightly. He yawned a bit and rubbed his forehead. He found a floatie and laid on it, gigglign a little bit.
Star decided to let him rest for a while. He looked really happy and didn't want to see him stop being like that. Maybe she would save her questions for later. She laid back in the water, still in the shallow area, and closed her eyes for a moment.
He smiled and suddenly he dissapeared under the water. When she noticed, he suddenly grabbed her tail and jumped on top of her, plunging them under while laughing.
"Gah...!" Star yelled a little bit, completely surprised by what he did. When she realized what happened she just smiled to him and hugged him a little.
Star made a smirk and plunged him, she smiled and giggled a little after she made that. They started playing together in the water for a while.
He rolled around with her for a long while, smilng widely and giving her a small giggle once he'd managed to get her pinned under the water. He let her up when she needed air, of course.
After a while Star got a little tired, yet she kept playing and rolling around with him in the water, she was having a lot of fun. After a moment she kissed his cheek without thinking.
He instnatly gasped and suddenly a ton of memroies came flooding back. He gave a cry and threw himself towards the edge, grabbing it and coughed, shutting her eyes hard. He screamed, "MASTER PLEASE DON'T HURT ME!"
Star quickly got out of the water and went to the edge with him "C-Canvasta!" She yelled desesperately as she rushed to his side. "Canvasta, w-what is it?!" She asked him confused and worried at the same time.
Canvasta shut his eyes hard and he started to shake, "I-I... I just... I... I'm so sorry..." He grabbed the side and coughed, "Don't hurt me..."
"Canvasta..." she was still confused, yet she knew what she had to do. Star hugged him gently from behind and whispered softly to his ear. "It's alright. I won't hurt you."
He started to shiver, "I-I... I remember something when you kissed me..." He shut his eyes tighter than ever.
"I-I was tied to a large bed... my master was standing over me... he told me... told me that I had to do... do what he said... or... or... or..." He broke into tears.
Star eyes open widely, not sure what to say. She hugged him a little more tigher. "Don't cry..." she said softly, but that was the only thing she could say.
"I-I... master was a red earth pony... I-I... he... I was... it.." He collapsed into the side of the pool, shutting his eyes and shivering.
Star laid beside him. "If it is that hard for you, you can stop." She said softly to his ear. She knew he was having a hard time remembering that.
He looked down and he covered his face, sobbing into his hooves, "T-take us home, take us home please!"
