Secret Agent (Marcanne)

Chapter 19

3rd person's POV
After Anne left, Sasha waited a few seconds behind a tree before going back, she sat on the bench and sighed.

She closed her eyes and leant back, her feelings had been getting the best of her lately.

She hated it.

She still didn't get to think through her problems since she comforted Anne instead, but this fountain used to be a happy place for her but after that conversation it was only bittersweet.

She couldn't help but get lost in her memories.

Sasha guided Anne by grabbing her hand and walking towards the water fountain.

They stopped in front of it and Anne's eyes sparked with wonder, she turned to look at Sasha and sent her a confused look.

"Why are we here?"

Sasha laughed lightly and looked back from Anne to the fountain.

"Well, Blossom, I found this water fountain some time ago I think... Like when I was going on a stroll, I stumbled on it and yeah... I wanted to show you, figured it'd be rom-- cute... I guess... I don't know."

Anne flushed red, Sasha had thought about what she thought and it honestly made her feel as if maybe she had a chance at this crush thing.

Sasha sat down at the ledge of the fountain, and Anne sat down next to her. A silence fell over them for a second before Anne spoke.

"You... thought of me? Like, this fountain is gonna be a special place for us?" She beamed as Sasha met her gaze.

Sasha couldn't help her flusteredness at Anne's happiness, she tore her eyes away and nodded silently, too embarrassed to say it aloud.

Anne sucked in a breath, she felt a spark of hope building up, and she scooted closer to Sasha, which made the blonde more nervous than she'd like to admit.

They were now a few inches away from each other, invading personal space, Anne sighed and glanced at Sasha's lips, but before she could try anything, Sasha tried to get up but ended up stumbling, which made her flail but then fall into the water.

Anne got up immediately and peered into the fountain, a sense of worry flooded over her, but Sasha soon emerged from the water, gasping for air, which made Anne sigh in relief.

Sasha stayed there for a second, trying to wipe at her eyes, her vision blurry, she squinted to see Anne, only to see the girl trying to bite back a laugh.

"Anne! I almost drowned and you're laughing!"

Anne laughed more and shook her head, "No! I-I'm not laughing--"

Sasha groaned but tried to get up, Anne quickly calmed down and lent Sasha a hand and pulled her up, but when she did, Sasha tugged on her hand, which made her yelp and fall into the fountain with her.

"Sasha!"

Sasha broke out into laughter, and Anne gently hit her.

"You're such a jerk!"

"M-Maybe a little, but I'm your jerk."

Anne wanted to roll her eyes but she couldn't help but blush, thankfully the water cooled down her face so Sasha didn't notice.

"Whatever, lets go out."

They both struggled to get up but eventually got out, they trudged to the bench and sat down.
