Author's Note: don't know what to say, so here's the story.
---
It was a cool Summers night at the Xiaolin temple. The moisture from the air brushing onto your skin, the warm atmosphere lightening your senses, and the feeling that it would never end. Anyone would want that. But that depends on where you are. Say if you were living near the Equator, you'd wish you left. But if you were living where it snows, then you'd want to go somewhere where it's warm. When you are living in China, you can have it either way and still enjoy it. That's how she feels. That's how she likes it.
She snuck out the temple and took a stroll towards the content pond that was placed in the courtyard. She gazed at the mesmerizing water. It gave off an eerie color as the light travels under the surface. Making you see different shades of blue mix together in ways that you couldn't possibly imagine. Seeing that and feeling the warm atmosphere of night together is enough to take your breath away.
She took a step towards the rim of the pond and knelled down. She traced her fingers on the wet surface and let it absorb into her skin. She let out a breath of air at its cool temperature. Everything about this moment she wished could last forever. And that's what saddened her.
Then, she felt hands on her back and gave her a great force and her face met the water and the rest of her body fell in pursuit. Her head popped through the surface and started taking in breaths. The water only reached up to her shoulders. She turned and saw her attacker in a fit of laughter and immediately, her blood started to boil.
"RAIMUNDO!" she shouted. "WHY DID YOU DO THAT!"
"Because... you... with that... oh man... it was so perfect, I had to do it," he said through his laughter.
"Don't you ever consider what you're doing before doing it?" she asked, still angry.
"If I do that, then there's no fun." She sent him a death glare. But he did manage to stop laughing to offer her a hand. This gave her an idea of getting him back.
She reached her hand and grabbed his. But instead of pulling her up, she grabbed his hand with both of hers and pulled him down. He didn't expect it and lost his balance and fell in.
His head broke through the surface and started taking in breaths as well. He turned and saw her in a fit of laughter as well.
"What'd you do that for?"
"I'd call it even." As soon as she finished her sentence, a splash of water met her face. She turned and saw his smirking face and retaliated.
They were splashing at like there was no tomorrow. It was like Kimiko was getting back at him for every single prank he ever did and Raimundo was doing it for pure fun.
Then Raimundo got behind her and dunked her head into the water. She waved her arms frail like and he let her up only to meet a huge splash water. Then they stopped and took breaths. They were close now. So close that their noses were practically touching.
He got mesmerized in her ethereal complexion when the light reflected upon her. Her hair was down and wet to the scalp. Water dripped around her face, leaving trails all over.
She stared at the effects the light had against his tanned skin. The water rippling below his chin and ending up to his cheek. His hair matted against his forehead and dripping all over his face. He smiled at her. She smiled back. They swam closer together. Bringing their faces closer. Then their lips touched lightly.
It started out as tiny kisses, then they went in for more. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he placed his hand on her waist. Then he deepened the kiss. Gliding his tongue over her lips. She gladly accepted it.
They kissed for at least ten minutes. Filling in the gaps that both had longed for. Both overdue for a session of kisses since they came to the temple three years ago.
Then they let go. Breaking the kiss and stared into each other's eyes and foreheads touching. Completely lost in the moment. Then they smiled. He captured her lips again and slowly sunk down into the water without letting go.
