Way down in Kokomooo~

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

Who: Alphonse Elric and Usagi Tsukino
What: "Vacation" to the hot springs
When: After this post and some walking.
Where: Uuuh the hot springs!
Summary: Al and Usagi have been planning this a while, and now that thing have settled and the weather has cleared, they're off to enjoy themselves.
Rating: I don't expect over PG-13??


[ They'd been walking for quite a while, but Alphonse was used to walking. Through the forest was better than through the desert. There were no sunburns under the shade of the trees. No lack of water. No sun being particularly angry at him for dare treading in ITS domain.

But, even so, he felt it was time for a rest, and for lunch. Some time to step away from their bored singing and plucking at tall grass and lugging along their bags to set things down, including themselves. ]

Let's take a break. It's not much further now, anyway.

[ She pulls her hand away from his before taking off her dress, revealing the white bikini beneath. She then takes a quick moment to wrap her pigtails up by the buns so it creates cute loops, and she wouldn't have to be them wet. ]

Then let's go! [ helllooo warm water, usagi has missed you! ]

[ Al just shuffles out of his pants and shirt, leaving behind a pair of swimming trunks. Luckily, he adapted to them. Victorian swimsuits are pretty weird. He smiles at her and tugs one of the loops very lightly. ]

Alright! [ He follows her in, feeling the comfortable warmth crawl up his legs. ]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ She takes a moment to lower herself the rest of the way in, trying to get used to the warmth. It had been so long since she last had been in one. She finally lets out a sigh. ]

Aah! This is so nice! Isn't it?

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

[ He settles into the water and flexes his toes, smiling pleasantly with his eyes shut. ]

This feels amazing. You were right.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ She watches him with a soft smile, letting out a hum, sinking further into the water. It felt so nice to relax. ]

Of course.

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

[ He lets himself sink down to just below his nose, eyes shut, smiling under the water for a moment before rising back up to his shoulders. ]

This kind of place would be great for big brother back home. His limbs ache, especially if it rains. It'd help him, I bet.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ She moves towards him, finally sinking down next to him. ]

Wouldn't his limbs rust?

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

[ He puts his arm around her shoulders. ]

Not really. He can take baths and stuff, you know.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ She leans into him before giving him a quick peck on the cheek. ]

That's pretty amazing. If--When he does come back, we should take him here. I think it'd be a great group thing, drag Winry along, too, and Selim.

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

Kind of a family trip... hehe, big brother and Winry would definitely bicker in this kind of situation.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

What? They can't handle a nice trip like this without going at one another?

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

[ Al's smile turned pretty mischievous. ]

Hehe, it's more like they wouldn't know what to do with themselves. They really like each other, but they're both pretty bad with handling their feelings.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Sounds like someone should push them to confess!

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

[ He rests his head on hers. ]

It's not that easy. They're really stubborn.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ She plays with the warm water in her hands, splashing lightly, and squirting it. ]

Silly stubborn people. I'm glad we weren't like that.

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

I was definitely more nervous than they are stubborn, though.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ That causes her to laugh. ]

Why would you have been nervous? I thought it was pretty obvious I liked it.

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

[ He laughs a little, himself. ]

I've never really had time for this kind of thing before... especially with how I was, so I guess I just had no idea how things would work out. I'm glad that I told you, anyway.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ She moves herself so she can look him in the eye, smiling brightly. Gods, she loved him. ]

I am, too. I love you, Al.

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

[ He smiles softly at her and touches her face carefully. ]

I love you too, Usagi.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ She touches his hand, tears filling her eyes, her smile brighter if it were at all possible. ]

I don't know what I'd do without you here. You've made me so happy.

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

[ He strokes her cheek carefully with his thumb. ]

Don't cry, Usagi... I don't have any plans of leaving here without you. And... I'm glad to hear I make you happy. I'm glad I found you.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ She raises one hand to rub the tears from her eyes, laughing slightly. ]

I'm not gonna cry, silly. [ lies, but whatever. ]

[sing-thrush.livejournal.com]

You look like you are.

[ He pokes her cheek and laughs a little. ] Are you sure?

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[ she sniffles and splashes the warm water at him lightly. ]

Positive! See! No tears? [ all right, a few tears, but she can't help it. Her boyfriend is too sweet. ]
