Sora smiled at the other, «Yes, Reflex is one of the most useful magic I know. Gravity based spells are super cool, but I have to admit I focused on other kinds so far.»
As they reached the tent and the other told him what to take care of, Sora simply nodded. After all, it was the same to him which of them would go collecting firewood and which one would stay behind preparing the area for the fire and filling the pot with snow.
«Yeah, I love camping too. Brings back memories…» he wondered just how similar their experiences were. It was strange, to think he shared parts of his story with other person, and that this story was almost exactly the same. This very moment too was something they would remember in almost exactly the same way.
«I’m having fun,» he said then, looking up at the other, «Being with you right now is what makes it special.»
As Sora finishes making the little pyre. He summons his keyblade and ignites the kindling. Soon the boys had a nice campfire going to help keep them warm. He finds himself blushing at smiling at the others comment. About how special this moment was. He couldn’t agree more. This wasn’t exactly something everyone gets to do, that’s for sure.
“Come sit down next to me, warm yourself up.” He offers his double a bright smile and pats the ground next to him. Taking the bucket of snow from the other boy as he takes a seat next to him. He places it over the fire so the ice can melt. He’d then lean over and press a kiss to his double’s cheek. Then wrapped and arm around him so they could keep each other warm while they waited for the ice to melt.
When the ice eventually melted, he took it off the fire and placed it in front of them. Then crawled into the tent to grab some wash clothes from his satchel. As he retakes his seat next to the other, he hands one of them to his double. “Alright, lets get each other cleaned up a little.” He dips the cloth into the warm water then gentle begins to scrub his doubles face. Completely unable to stop himself from giggling a little when the other starts doing it to him as well.
The heat from the fire was pleasant against his skin, Sora felt like he couldn't get enough of it. The snow had melted into mildly hot water inside the bucket, when the other wetted the cloth he'd been holding onto and brings it to Sora's face, he is amused, and he guessed that the slightly unpleasant sensation of the fabric against his skin is due to the bruises he got. They burned a little when grazed upon by the cloth, but Sora didn't complain, as the overall feeling was good and soothing.
«You're all for doing cheesy things like cleaning each other up, uh?» he whispered to the other, amusement in his voice. This was something he would rarely suggest to hardly anyone. They truly were different. Sora dipped his own wash cloth into the water and started doing the same to the other's face.
The boy had really few and small scratches on his face. The bigger one laid on his right cheekbone and Sora cleaned it as carefully as he could. Then he passed the cloth on the rest of his face just because he didn't want to leave any part of his skin uncovered. After all, they also sweated a lot while fighting.
His double seemed to enjoy the gesture too, so Sora allowed himself to feel at ease, while some part of his brain remembered how things played out similarly in the shower that very morning. He wasn't sure how to feel about everything, but once again, he tried not to ask himself too many questions.
