She jumped in surprise as he popped back up and looked in the direction he pointed.
"Where?!"

"Over there."
He paused for a moment, before shuffling towards the trowel.

She saw it, and him shuffling after it. So, she hurried it up a bit to get to it first.
"I got it!"
Or at least, she would have had it if her feet hadn't decided to slip on the floor. With a squeak and no chance to catch herself, Erin's feet slide right out from under her.

That surprised him, he had to admit. So he did what he could. To make sure she didn't get hurt. He wouldn't say he tried to catch her, really. Just cushion her fall.
Lucky thing he was a Keeper.

It surprised her too, hence the wide-eyed scared look as she fell. And... landed on something much much softer and warmer than the floor. She's sure if it was Izzy's choice she would have landed in the perfect romantic story way, face to face. Instead she landed on her butt. But he did break her fall.

Thats exactly how it would have happened.
But this worked too, he supposed. Hm. Ow. She's not heavy. And she didn't fall that hard. Damn that gravity.

Erin blinked, and blushed, and quickly scrambled off of him to kneel next to him on the floor.
"Isadore, are you okay?!"

He sat there for a moment, then nodded.
"Fine. You okay?"

Could he see the worry all over her face.
"I'm so sorry~!"
She layed her hand on his arm without even really noticing it. She was just fine.

He waved it off with the arm she wasn't touching.
"It's fine."
He gave her a smile, not getting up. He enjoyed the moments.

She sighed in relief, not moving her hand.
"Isadore, you didn't need to do that."

He moved his hand lightly on to hers. A risky move, he knew.
"I didn't want you to get hurt." He said, somewhat softly.

Instead of pulling away, Erin found herself smiling a little. She could feel her cheeks warming up again.
"It was sweet.."

Izzy smiled a bit.
"It happens."

She didn't move her hand.
"Heh... I'm sorry I landed on you.."
