The leaves underneath them crunched under the pressure of their weight. The cool winter-esque breeze blew over their bare faces. Kyouka pulled her wool beanie tighter on her head as the breeze passed them. Denki's warm exhales blew out little plumes of steam. Autumn was coming.

"Maybe it'll snow this year," he said quietly, lookung at his partner.

"I hope so,"  she responded, "I want to hit you in the face with a snowball, have a good laugh while I'm at it."

"Mean."

"Didn't ask for your opinion, did I?" she laughed in response.

"Tch, and here I thought you would just be nice and cute for once," he said jokingly.

"Just for that, I'm not giving you anything for Christmas," she said.

Denki's face fell.

"W-wait, I didn't mean that! Aw man..."

She turned back and stuck her tongue out at him and laughed. It lasted only for a moment but Denki could tell this image would stick with him until he died: the falling cherry blossoms and leaves shined in the background, accented by the warm afternoon sunlight. The breeze seemed to blow around her as she smiled at him, her face glowing in the sunlight and her mouth smiling from ear to ear. One thing was for certain; she looked like a picture, and he liked it. 

"Why're you taking a picture?" she asked.

Denki blinked a couple of times, his camera in front of him. 

"Just admiring the scenery," he said, a smile creeping onto his face, a warm smile.

She shrugged and kept walking. Denki looked at his camera and saw the same image, and without knowing, he blushed a warm red.

"Cutie..."
