The long journey to the star island was a long one. But Samekichi didn't mind one single bit. How could he resist the way Wadanohara had sweetly asked if they could go in the evening to watch the stars? In his shark form, he was able to zoom through the crashing, foamy waves as he carried her on his back swiftly. He heard her occasional giggles, and cute remarks along the way, and he'd answer with a grunt, or a 'yeah'.

It was a bit later than speculated when they reached shore. After fumbling with turning to his humanoid form, the shark male approached the sea witch as she traced random circles and happy faces (she even drew a Tarako) with a stick onto the soft sand. "Remind me not to be leaving you with Tarako."

"Eh-?" Wadanohara jumped at the sound of her boyfriend's voice, and exhaled a tiny chuckle. "That's rude, Kichi."

A roll of his eyes and a grunt was all she got from him. In an instant, his gloved hand curled around hers, pulling the pigtailed girl closer to him. "Well, we're here. Any specific reason as to why we're here?"

She nodded, letting their fingers intertwine. "Yes. We're here to see the stars at night."

"Lead the way," he pressed gently. Samekichi was able to muster enough courage to lean in and press a gentle kiss to her temple. Their relationship held so much trust, it almost seemed impossible to try and twist it. They held compassion for one another, and it was obvious how much the two loved each other. They simply had... a much slower pace with showing physical affection. Sure, they held hands and cuddled, but not as much as lips and body-exploring. Arousal was a different topic—it has happened, but they've managed to get through completely only twice.

Samekichi shook his head from his provocative thoughts. Although the girl led the way, he was right behind her, keeping his gray eyes scanning around, in case of any trouble. Half way there, he was the one to give her hand a squeeze, to which she looked over her shoulder, and smiled. It was times like these where the shark had the need for attention and physical contact from her swirl inside him. He wanted kisses. He wanted body-exploration. He wanted soft moans being exchanged.

The male sighed loudly, unaware that they had arrived onto a hill with a tree that gave of a beautiful scenery of the ocean's two trotted along closely, deciding it was best to snuggle up against the tree bark. "No," he disagreed anxiously as she was making herself comfortable next to him. Gloved hands easily lifted her small body up, snuggling her onto his lap. A bright red blush tainted her cheeks once his arms snaked around her, and his chin rested upon the crown of her head (he had swatted her hat aside rudely). It was something she couldn't help, so she snuggled up against him and relaxed.

Her wide eyes gleamed with excitement at all the stars dotting the night sky. Their hands came into contact, and they laced together softly. Samekichi lowered his head to the side of her ear, and exhaled gently. "You know I love you, right, Wadanohara?" he asked in a kind voice.

"Of course. And Samekichi knows that I love him back!"

The shark took a moment to bask in her words. They brought great reassurance to him.

Suddenly, she squeaked when she felt him press a kiss to her neck, once again blushing furiously. Her body shivered in delight, her head tilting away.

He thought he had perhaps gone one step too far, but that thought shattered when she giggled cutely. "Soft, please..."

Throughout their starry gazing, and whispering, he planted gentle kisses along the sides of her slender neck, and she gave him quiet squeaks and giggles of delight. This is how he wanted to spend time with her; more private, alone time showing each other how much they loved and cherished one another.
