Lucy loved the tree near the lake. Especially when they sat like this; Lucy's head in Hunter's lap whilst she played with Lucy's hair and passionately argued about the unfair misconceptions people had about dragons. In fact, this was how they had first met- her picking at the grass in boredom until Hunter had sat down next to her, babbling on about anything and everything. And something had brought them back to the tree ever since. Although she suspected it was more to do with Hunter's exuberant personality as opposed to their very much one-sided conversations on magical creatures.

"-it was so amazing, the unicorns!" Luce, you listening?" Hunter said and Lucy looked up with a guilty smile. Hunter had a wide grin etched on her face too; her kaleidoscope eyes sparkled with mischief. It was a look that set off several alarm bells in Lucy's head.

"What are you-" Lucy was cut off by Hunter, who grabbed her hand and ran to the lake. Before Lucy could say 'hippogriff, Hunter had dumped her in it. After a minute, Hunter dived in after Lucy, full of laughter. Her smile was so infectious that, although Lucy was soaking wet, she couldn't help but smile herself.


That's it! Please review, it helps me improve my writing and I'd love to hear your feedback! And tell me, how'd you like Hunter?
