Another hard one. I had to think a lot on this one. Hopefully I came through.
Summer
"Innnnn summerrrrrrr!" Skye sang, spinning around in the easy chair.
As predicted, Leo clasped his hands over his ears and groaned. "Is this a plot to kill me?"
Skye looked at him with mock horror. "How can you not love that song?" she cried, jumping off the chair. Her first few steps were a bit wobbly from all the spinning. Leo put an arm on her shoulder to steady her. "Thanks."
"No problem," He mumbled. "But that song really is annoying."
"Why?" Skye asked. "Do you have problems with adorable talking snowmen? Because I'll tell you, Ward and Simmons do."
"They have problems with all movies," Leo remarked. "Do you remember the time we watched Moonraker with them?"
"Oh god, you know we don't talk about that." Skye all too well remembered that night. The couple kept making comments about how unrealistic the movie was. She and Leo had gotten so fed up that they began to throw popcorn at them every time Ward or Simmons opened their mouth to complain about something. Eventually they started to throw it at each other after Ward had threatened extra pull-ups for her. "But what's your problem with that song?"
The curly-haired engineer sighed. "He's so naïve. He doesn't realize that he's going to melt when it gets warm out. It makes me sad then, thinking about how quickly something can be lost once the seasons change."
"Oh." Skye looked down at the Holotable. When she thought about it now, especially in that way, the song lost some of its cuteness. "So it's not because you don't like Olaf?"
"I actually like Olaf," Leo admitted with a nod. "He's got a big heart, if he's got one. He was willing to melt away so Anna could warm up. Some people really are worth melting for, and it makes me think about what's important to me. That's why I like him."
Unable to hold back, Skye threw her arms around him. Leo was so sweet and kind and could pull the most meaningful things out of simple stuff. She wondered if she could ever get up the courage to tell him one day that he was worth melting for.
Tomorrow, more Leo pep talks.
