Olivia Blair clung to the tree beneath her for dear life. Her normally messy black hair was pulled into a severe bun, and her usual lace and silk dress had been traded in for a tank top and shorts.
Above her head, Topaz dangled precariously, a wide smile adorning her freckled face. The sunshine dappled through her white blonde hair, and Libby took a moment to realize how comfortable her girlfriend was away from the city.
" Libby, you have to be brave" Topaz teased. Green magic almost hung in the air, a far cry from the dark earth Libby preferred to stay on.
" I AM being brave!" Libby squeaked.
" I let you talk me up here, didn't I?"
Topaz swung down beside her girlfriend and smiled sweetly.
" Sweetie, trust me. I'll never let you fall."
Libby slowly sat up, and the look on Topaz's face was worth the dizzying height.
" You are beautiful." Topaz whispered. Her mismatched eyes were shining, as though she was looking at a work of art, and the attention made Libby's face burn red.
" I'm gonna go out on a limb here.." Topaz started.
Libby groaned loudly.
" Monkey, I swear to all the gods, if you are going to make a tree pun..."
Topaz smiled and pressed a kiss on Libby's cheeks.
" Well, I was, but I won't."
Libby smiled and hugged her girlfriend.
" That's a first." She teased,
Far below, the sound of laughing echoed through the grove.
