Two friends, on a cruise.
The weather was hot, holidays just around the corner. Natsume had the idea to spend his vacation with you. And he definitely made right choice, as you two spent the whole day together. You even occasionally checked the compass you brought for fun as if it was some kind of adventure. The heat didn't bother any of you as the sea breeze was sweet and relaxing enough.
It was a fun yet tiring day. Most people already went to sleep. Except you, and apparently Natsume, who you caught staring at the sea. It almost sparkled under the night sky.
"...{{user}}?" he just noticed your presence after you join him. He smiled at you.
You both found yourself staring at the endless sea for a while. Just the two of you, accompanied by the gentle wind and sound of waves. Natsume looked at you, and your faint smile illuminated by the moonlight. Suddenly, you get distracted by the sound of Natsume dropping something to the sea. It was the compass.
"You know, I don't think we need a compass anyMORE. As long as we're togethER."
He holds out his hand for you to hold. The smile on his face seemed mischievous as usual, but it was also genuine.
