SOMETHING THERE || Wyatt Lykensen

Otters' playful nature and adorable appearance never failed to bring a smile to Aurelia's face. Their playful nature was one of Aurelia's favorites about them. Aurelia admired the sea otters' ability to effortlessly float on their backs, their furry bodies bobbing up and down in the water

But it wasn't just their appearance that captivated Aurelia. It also was their resourcefulness and intelligence. Sea otters were more than just animals to the blue-eyes girl; they were a symbol of joy to her

Wyatt finally made it to her side, "I can tell these are your favorites" He spoke looking at her instead of the swimming animals beside him. Aurelia turned her head towards him, her smile still plastered in her face "How could they not? They are the most adorable..well.." She jerked her head to the side considering the fact "Anyways, they're so cute and smart but yet they are so...vicious"

"Mm, reminds me of someone"

Aurelia rolled her eyes while kissing her teeth. She pushed him aside as she walked away from him to the wooden bench that was beyond them "Trust me. You don't want me being near like them" Aurelia pointed behind her not looking back. Wyatt laughed at her annoyed expression following right behind her to the bench

Wyatt got curious about what she had meant by vicious "Hey, what'd you mean by 'vicious'" He wondered as he did air quotes with fingers, they both sat down at the bench. Aurelia shook her head "Oh you definitely do not want to know. Trust"

Wyatt's right eye squinted as he tilted his head to the side. He decided to not keep asking about it and just stay quiet. The two stayed seated at the wooden bench, their eyes fixed on the sea otters. They observed the playful creatures as they swam, dove, and frolicked in the water

Wyatt was adjusting the lens of the camera, focusing on a particular mischievous sea otter that was twirling in the water, its fur glistening under the bright light

Aurelia was looking at the same otter, "Look at that one!" She exclaimed, pointing at the otter. "Already looking at him" Wyatt chuckled, his finger poised on the camera's shutter button

As the Sea otter continued its playful dance, she leaned closer to Wyatt, her eyes never leaving the otter's graceful movement. One of the otters swam closer to the glass. It's eyes meeting Aurelia

The raven-haired girl awed, her finger pointing right at him "he's coming this way" She slightly shook Wyatt. Wyatt raised the camera to his eyes, Aurelia stopped shaking him to let him capture a picture. Wyatt pressed the shutter button, capturing the moment. He couldn't help but smile at Aurelian's infectious joy while taking the picture

Aurelia turned to Wyatt, her eyes sparkling with excitement "Did you get it? Let me see it"

Wyatt nodded, a proud girl on his face "I've got it. Look" He turned the camera to her gaze, she smiled in awe at the picture. The otter was swimming with its eyes full of curiosity but yet seemed to sparkle a bit with excitement on the girl "I love it" Aurelia said, her voice filled with gratitude

Her eyes went to the tank for a quick second and then went back to the camera but she had to take a second look at the tank and saw two otters holding hands while lying on their backs so they didn't have to float away from each other. She squealed quietly at the two "Okay now that is worth taking a picture of!" Aurelia said encouraging Wyatt to take a photo of the scene. Which he of course did

Aurelia's love for these adorable creatures was still very evident in her face. Wyatt's smile had gotten bigger at their happiness, his beard swelling with affection for the girl. He stood up from his seat and held out a hand in front of Aurelia

Aurelia grabbed his hand and stood up, with their hands intertwining as they walked away from the Sea otters exhibit to the next; The best part of the whole Aquarium that Aurelia was saving for last
