"Now this is quite the nice little set-up, isn't it?" Kyousuke's gaze swept around the area. They had managed to find a little clearing among the trees with ample space to spread out a blanket. The trees were far apart enough that they got a decent amount of sunshine, which made it even better.
"Yeah, this looks nice." Rin plopped down next to the basket. "I can't remember the last time we had a picnic. Hmm. Oh yeah, it must have been with everyone else."
"It was the weekend before I graduated, remember?" Kyousuke smiled at the memory. With that fond memory came a little pang of sadness however. How nice would it have been if everyone else could have been here, but this would have to be enough.
"We don't really get to do stuff like this very often, do we?" Rin murmured. "Not as much as we used to anyway. We used to do fun things all the time as well."
"Well, that's the downside of becoming an adult, isn't it?" Kyousuke sat down as well. "At least we're doing something now." He opened up the basket and removed the contents, setting out containers filled with sushi rolls, omelettes and rice, as well as a couple of flasks of water. "Mmm. I'm already hungry after that walk, aren't you?"
"Yup. Absolutely starving."
After all the food had been consumed, the two lay down side by side, smiling in contentment as they basked in the light of the sun.
"Mmm." Rin stretched herself out, yawning. She then rolled over to rest her head against Kyousuke, slinging an arm over him.
Kyousuke turned over slightly, reaching out to stroke her hair and kiss her forehead. He stayed like that, resting his lips against her warm skin, holding into her. It occurred to him they definitely wouldn't have been able to do this with anyone else around. Though he missed the days when they all used to hang out with each other, some alone time now and then wasn't too bad if they could have moments like this.
