these passing moments with you

"Bend your knees."

"Right-Right!" That wasn't something she came by naturally. Even when he was teaching her to fight she had squatted too deeply or stood too rigidly. She giggled at the advice, the air whistling into her nose as she tried again to subtly bend her knees and find her balance.

"Op!" She exclaimed, unbalanced again. "I can do this! I can do it!" She said, her cheeks numb from smiling. With a breath, she leaned on Bas and finally got her footing. The glee in her eyes as she finally got the hang of it where lit by a sudden soft early snowfall. Bright tiny flakes drifted from the sky around them. She reached out and touched one with her tongue with another giggle.

Skating beside him... It was like a dream... a dream she never wanted to leave.
