[ maybe he should get out of the water, but why? being wet doesn't really register to him, and mizuki's already here so the message seems to be they don't have to move. it's tempting to shut his eyes again and relax. it's tempting to let her continue stroking his face and staying this close, even if he thinks mizuki's never been delicate about a damn thing in her life but knows she's capable of being gentle.
typical grin. this is just what they do, isn't it? they banter and bitch at each other and push each other's buttons and that's how their relationship has always worked. there were so many people shoma locked out of his life, but she's always found a way to pry herself in. eventually, he stopped trying and left the door open for her. over the years, she's become one of his closest friends, a confidant, the person who knows pretty much everything about him.
"...I've made friends here. And there's people I like a lot. But you're still my favorite even though you're a huge bully."
"Well, good news! You're my favorite around too."
he's been aware that their time here is running short, because even if they're going home together and even if they live in the same city, even though he knows that she'll likely walk into his house uninvited the next day...things may not be exactly the way he wants. but right here, right now, they are.
the air is cool and refreshing and he's still not entirely sure why they're outside but he's grateful for it for the time being. he's grateful to be able to know what he's doing and have the time to zen. ]
Uh huh. All talk as usual. [ teasing. ] Nothing's stopping me from pulling you in though. Just remember that.
