Summary
He joined her, much to her surprise – slowly, struggling with his boots far more than she had with her tennis shoes, taking the time to actually roll his jeans up to his knees before he waded into the water and stood next to her – and she snorted back a laugh when she saw this, had to resist the urge to point out how stupid he looked, because when she looked up at his face to tell him exactly that, there was so much fondness etched across those aging features that she just couldn’t bring herself to do it; couldn’t bring herself to be cruel, even jokingly so, to the one person she could always count on to look at her just like that.
