“Come on in! The water’s nice and warm!”
Sakura cocked her head softly with a tiny smile, and Asahina's eyes shut the intensity of her smile. They had been on a hike - Asahina had their map through the woods, and Sakura wore the backpack with their picnic supplies. When the pair had found a rather large creek running through greenwood, Asahina hadn’t hesitated to leap right in - soaking her jeans and flannel tank.
Sakura had considered how filthy and stagnant the water might be, and vaguely worried about Asahina cutting herself on a jagged rock or sharp stick. But Asahina was still waving for her, calling for her - so she sat on the side of the creek and slipped off her tennis shoes.
The water was actually rather cool, but she supposed that Asahina had warmed up to the lakewater. She wiggled her feet around for a moment, relishing in the crisp water, before fully shifting into the stream. She rubbed her arms as Asahina bounced over to her, splashing a few droplets into both of her hair. She threw her arms around Sakura.
She placed a hand on the back of her girlfriend’s head, petting lightly, the other hand ghosting on her back. Asahina’s hair rolled down her back and a few strands flipped onto Sakura’s neck, sending a rivulet down her neck. It made her shiver, yet, Sakura didn’t care in the slightest. A leaf fell into the stream.
“This is perfect”, she sighed, relaxing onto Sakura’s shoulder.
“Oh, is it?”, Sakura replied, leaning against the side of the creek.
“Yep! Like a scene from a movie or something!”
Sakura kissed her girlfriend’s cheek.
They never made it to their picnic destination.
