like captured water

His aim to grab ahold of her shoulders had been successful! The feel of her fur was warm against his touch until suddenly his trajectory sent them crashing into the shallows of the bay. Before he could continue to roll them farther into the water, he felt Sayuri's paw reach up to shove his jaw away. Nearly biting his tongue, the boy felt her begin to flail around in his grip. "Why're you squirming?!" Kuroo rasped between laughter and gasps from the chilly water splashing up against them.

As he moved to try and roll her again into the water, he felt her teeth pluck at the fur along his neck. A startling sensation zipped through his body as he stared at her wide eyed. Not because it hurt but because it was making his belly do flip flops. Trying to keep his wits about him, he sidestepped once more so that their legs were half-submerged in the shallows. Even when Sayuri grabbed ahold of his shoulder, he reached over and tugged playfully at her cheek. His own tail slapped happily at the water's surface as they continued to wrestle.
