A/n: Over Christmas holidays, my cousin and I found a list of prompts and wrote many one-shots with said prompts. This is the first one. The prompt is at the top in italics. This particular one is set during Episode 2, while they're at the Lake Retreat on Naboo. Hope you enjoy it!
Swimming
He'd never been swimming before that day. Not once in his entire life. Being from a desert planet, though, he wouldn't have. On Tatoonie, water was a very precious commodity and to use it for anything but the necessities - to use it play in, no less - was absolutely unheard of and completely unimaginable.
Here on Naboo, though, water was plentiful. There was more than enough to drink, use for bathing, farming and anything else, leaving much leftover to do leisure activities in. To swim in.
The word felt as foreign as the idea. He found, however, as he donned what Padmé called a swimsuit, that he very much liked this thing called swimming. The cool water all around him as he dove and splashed… It was relaxing and indeed a very pleasurable experience.
It made him forget why he was at the Lake Retreat in the first place.
