a shitty spring dove fanfic :D

Chapter 3

The meadow was absolutely bustling with beautiful, brightly colored flowers, they all had a layer of glittery dew still covering their petals. There was a glint on all of the water from the sun shining down onto the valley, it was quite the beautiful scene. Moomin, Snufkin, and little my all sat down in the field together, moomin started to mindlessly braid himself some flower wreathes. Snufkin pulled out his harmonica again and played his new tune in full this time, in the meantime, My was lying down in the flowers, looking up at the clouds, watching them pass by.

"I quite like this year's spring tune, Snufkin. It's very pretty." Moomin commented, while carefully putting a wreath on Snufkin's hat. Snufkin smiled at him during a rest in the song, as a quick 'thank you' to moomin.

Little My had dozed off while cloud-watching, and moomin started another wreath after tying a flower to snufkin's tail. "Is that too tight?" He asked as he tightened the knot in the flower's stem, not wanting to cause snufkin any discomfort. "No, it's fine." He replied, a soft smile on his face. Moomin nodded before going back to weaving flowers and other plants into this new wreath. Snufkin had finished his song, he picked a flower and tried nestling the short stem in a tuft of fur on moomin's head, it didn't stay for very long though. Moomin didn't notice this at all, he was too fixated on his wreath. Snufkin leaned back in the soft grass, his hands behind his head, and his hat over his face. Once Moomin had finished the new wreath, he lie down next to snufkin in the grass with his paws resting on his torso. They spent the next few hours like this, they all eventually fell asleep amongst the flowers, napping peacefully in each other's company.

It was around noontime whenever they had woken up, Little my was the first to wake up, as she was the first to fall asleep. She'd gone off back home for lunch without waking Moomin or Snufkin. Snufkin woke up not long after Little my had left. He sat up and placed his hat back on his head, his legs crossed and his pack leaned against his side. He noticed how Moomin was still sleeping, he checked the position on the sun and decided to wake his friend by gently placing a hand on moomin's arm and shaking him just enough to where he would wake up. "Did you rest well?" He asked, as soon as he could see signs of consciousness in Moomin. He got a nod in response, as well as a sleepy murmur.

"Would you like to head back for lunch now? It looks to be about noon." He suggested with a smile, his hand still gently resting against moomin's arm. "Sure.. that sounds fine..." Moomin replied, sounding a bit groggy, he smiled at snufkin before sitting up.

Snufkin stood up and held a hand out for moomin. He took snufkin's hand to brace himself as he got up, they walked back, still in no hurry to get there, just silently enjoying each other's company and the warm spring air.
