You woke up at the sound of a chuckle. With reluctance you opened your eyes to see that the sun was already setting. With a gasp you sat up straight. Then you heard that chuckle again. You looked towards your left to see Taiyou observe you with curiosity.
"Good evening, (F/n)." He said, an amused glint in his eyes.
"Taiyou... how long have I been asleep?" You felt strangely calm.
"An hour or two, I think." He shrugged.
"Two hours!?" You stared at him in disbelief.
"Yup." He gave you a smile.
"Wait.. when did you come back?" You frowned a bit. He thought for a moment.
"About one hour and forty-five minutes ago."
"W-what? Why didn't you wake me up?"
He gave you a sly smirk. "Because you were so cute, sleeping like that. Did you know you mumbled in your sleep?"
"I did what now?" You swallowed nervously. What have I been mumbling about then?
Taiyou seemed to be able to read your thoughts as a he gave you a casual answer.
"You talked in your sleep. Wanna know what you said?"
You pulled up your knees and hid your red face behind them. You heard him chuckle and then you felt a hand going through your hair.
"You said my name." He whispered in your ear. A shiver went down your spine. You had the feeling that your face could put a tomato to shame so you didn't move. After some time Taiyou broke the silence, his hand still in your hair.
"(F/n). You should look up."
"Why?" You mumbled to your knees.
"Or you'll miss the scenery." His voice was soft and caring. You sighed and reluctantly raised your head a bit so you could see what happened in front of you while Taiyou couldn't see your red face. But you quickly forgot about your blush when you saw the beautiful scenery in front of you. Namely, on the lake lots of little paper boats were sailing. Each one had a different colour. Since it was almost dark it looked like little fairies fluttering across the water. Your head snapped up and you stared at the lake in awe.
"Wow.." You whispered. "..it's so beautiful."
"I'm glad you like it." Taiyou smiled. You sighed with a smile and let your head lean on your knees. You were completely absorbed into the beauty.
Next thing you felt was a warm body against your own and an arm wrapped around your waist. You blinked as something heavy, you guessed a head, used your own as support.
"Taiyou?" You asked quietly.
"Yes?" He murmured. You shifted a bit, making him lift his head. He also wanted to remove his hand, probably thinking that you were uncomfortable with him being that close, but you grabbed his arm and held it in place. Then you shifted a bit so you could look him properly in the eye. The moment your eyes met you both leaned in.
As your lips molded together in a passionate lip-lock a lot of questions shot through your head, but as quick as they came they vanished again. After some time the two of you finally broke apart, gasping for air. After some time staring into each other eyes, you returned to your former position and Taiyou pulled you close again.
You sighed contentedly as you watched the little boats drift by with Taiyou leaning on you again.
"Taiyou." You started quietly again.
"Hmm?" He only hummed.
"Nii-san'll kill you."
"I know that, but you're worth it."
You chuckled at that. "If you say so.. I'll try to stop Nii-san, okay?"
Now he chuckled. "I'll be glad if you did."
And the two of you sat there for a while longer, enjoying the closeness you shared.
