Days like this keep me warm, keep me warm, keep us warm
and love like this means more

She loved the water.
She loved the way it trickled through her fingers, gentle and soft and liquid, as the light cascaded through the open window, sea breeze intermingled with the exotic scent of cherry blossom and water lily and desert rose all weaving around her.
She closed her eyes, soft bubbles against her skin as she sunk down deeper, until only her nose and lips were still touching air, the warm water enclosing around every part of her, comforting and caressing her as she lay completely relaxed.
She hardly noticed the gentle click of the doorknob as he quietly stepped in, softly closing the door behind him. His bright eyes gazed down at her, smiling, drinking in her beauty. As her eyes fluttered open, she smiled, pleasantly surprised to see him standing there, the man with the sun in his hair, stars in his eyes, and her heart in his hands.
A soft gasp escaped her lips as he slipped into the water beside her, his arm sliding beneath her and pulling her close to him. She snuggled up to him, resting her head on his shoulder, his soft blond hair tickling her forehead as she breathed him in and smiled.
She loved the water.
