    Needless to say, as soon as Yamato was gently pulled from the light wreckage, she had mortification written over every inch of her face; if her cheeks were already rosy from the brisk Winter breeze, now they were practically crimson. Her eyes tightly squinted shut as she felt icy snow melt on her eyelashes yet despite the cold that threatened her gaze, all she could think about were the hands holding her arms.

“I-I’m fine! It was my fault, I shouldn’t have been so clumsy,” she replied. Usually such a predicament would make her want to run away and hide, she knew hedgehogs hibernated in the colder season, that idea didn’t sound all too bad. But Takeo-kun’s kindness and the care that emanated from him elicited a light smile. A small part of her was still inwardly shrieking over her arms still in his tender grasp but soon that grasp was gone and her feet were set down on the ground once more. She wiped drops of water from her face as she regained herself, blush beginning to fade. “Thank you, Takeo-kun, but you don’t need to go out of your way!”

When she opened her eyes the sight that greeted her only had her blushing again – his face! It was so close! And her heart was beating so fast! 

There was something so intense about the way he looked at her and with so much concern, while he remained oblivious to boundaries of personal space sometimes, she didn’t complain. In fact, she wanted him to do it more. If only she could actually talk without stuttering when he did so. 

“Y-Yes! I’m okay!” she blurted, looking away as her fists repeatedly clenched and loosened. “My nose is j-just a little c-cold.” She realised he was at her level then something in her arms seemed to itch, as if that small part of her was screaming to do something and take advantage of his equal height, she might not even get this chance again! Or at least for a while.   

So it was without further debate that Yamato practically launched herself at Takeo, arms encircling atop broad shoulders as her cheek pressed against his coat and it was cold but she felt a warmth that fluttered from her heart like the beat of a butterfly’s wings and the snow she stood on felt like a cloud and all she wanted to do was hold him for forever and a day, to live in a photograph of this moment.

Takeo was so focused upon Yamato, his heart fairly seizing in his chest even at her declarations that she was unharmed, that her next movement took him utterly by surprise. Usually, he was so alert to the movements of others and what was going on around him, but fear for the girl who had his whole heart blocked out everything else. Instead, he could only see her sweet face, hear her soft voice, lose himself in her.

And so, Yamato’s small arms reaching across his shoulders and her cold nose burying in his coat, was unanticipated in every way by Takeo. But wasn’t that how it always was with her? Rarely could he ever fully read her, know exactly what she might be thinking at a given moment, or understand with certainty how she would react to new situations. For him, Yamato was full of surprises each day — and never would he wish to change that.

Simply being near her was an adventure all in itself. Ever since that day on the train, Takeo’s life hadn’t been the same, in the absolute best way. It was incredible to him how much one person could make his life so much fuller. She was small, but her presence was everything.

His eyes widened as the sensation of Yamato’s body pressed against his sunk in. However, it was only a split second before Takeo’s own arms enveloped her, pulling her even closer. “I’m glad you’re alright! I’ll always take care of you!” The words came out sounding fierce, as though he had just saved her from the jaws of some ferocious beast as opposed to simply lifting her out of the snow. But he meant them, no matter the situation — and he always wanted Yamato to know that.

“Maybe if you press your nose against the inside of my coat, it’ll warm it up.” Takeo didn’t even particularly need such a padded jacket, but it seemed all winter-wear was a bit too warm for his liking. However, if it brought some help to her, he was exceedingly glad that he had purchased it.

“And we can get hot chocolate or tea after our snow people are finished. The steam is great for warming up noses.” The picture of his girlfriend carefully sipping a hot drink, cooling it off with little breaths as she did so, brought a color to his cheeks. So cute!

     “Those sounds good.” He could see why Takeo would pick those flowers. While Makoto wasn’t very familiar with the language of flowers himself, their bright colors were similar to Yamato’s bright personality. “And I’m happy to help when I can.” It went without saying he doesn’t mind helping with reasonable requests.

     “I’m free too, so yeah let’s go.” he stood up from his desk, bookmarking the page he was on in his book. And made sure he knew what they needed. “I think there’s a crafts store nearby. We cab probably get all the materials there.”

“Great!” Takeo wasn’t entirely sure that he had ever actually been inside a craft store. He had built things before, certainly, but he usually went to places specializing in wood and things of that nature. 

“Thanks for helping me out, Suna.” As the pair exited the Sunakawa residence, he felt the need to express his gratitude verbally. After all, even if you knew someone was happy that you helped, it was nice to hear it out loud once in a while, too. “Is there anything that you’re interested in making? We could both work on projects!”

  “It’s kind of complicated but it’s basically about this boy who’s the only thing on his planet except for a couple of volcanoes and a rose he loves, so he flies from planet to planet and meets all different kinds of people but the only real friend he makes is a fox – ah, but now I don’t wanna tell you the ending because that’ll spoil it!”

“That does sound sad. Living in a world all by yourself would probably be one of the worst things I could imagine. But I’m glad he became friends with the fox — that’s definitely something Suna would do! He’s a great friend. Did you read that book just for fun, Yamato?”

         Speakin’ honestly with ya, planning ahead has never been my strong suit. I’m an in-the-moment kinda guy.

         I should probably think about it, really; I’m graduating soon and I have no idea what I’m doing after I do, hahaha.

“Hearing you say that makes me glad that I’m still a first year. I’m not much of a planner, either — I usually just do whatever seems right at the moment.

But my school is having a job fair this afternoon. You should come!”

[goldengouda]

[ classes started, and my work load doesn’t seem like it’ll be half as bad as last year. i’m relieved, to say the least. ^^ ]

Okay so here’s a lame edit and all that I did in like a few minutes because I wanted to get this thing over with. So basically as the edit says, I’ve been on this blog (actually this muse) for over a year now! This is really exciting news to me because I never, almost never stick with a muse for this long! The usual time spans of my blogs are around a month or two so this is a really big accomplishment and I’m proud of myself! I’ve never put this much effort into an OC before & having people tell me that Hisae is their favorite or that they find her interesting makes me cry happy tears.

“Facetime is just a way of video chatting on your phone. You can accept it by hitting the green button or cancel it with the red.”

“That makes sense! I’ve never had that happen before, so I wasn’t sure how to respond. Have you used it before, Suna?”

     “Well, less is more in some cases.” Like this one. He doubted anyone’s head was big enough for a hundred flowers to be necessary. “And at least you’re slowing down enough to think it through now.” He took out his phone and began searching for directions.

     “It probably looked easy because she’s used to doing them.” That one looked detailed and easy enough to follow. “Okay, I found directions, but we still need the materials. We don’t have any fake flowers in here, so we’re going to have to buy some. Just roses, or does Yamato-san have any favorites you know about?”

“ — I don’t know. I think Yamato would like daisies. Or sunflowers! They’re bright and pretty.” Takeo didn’t know anything at all about flowers, but those were the first to spring to mind at the mention of his girlfriend. Their aura reminded him of her.

“Thanks for helping out, Suna!! You’re way better at planning than I am.” It was basically common knowledge at this point that Takeo tended to dive right into things, and he certainly appreciated his friend pulling him back to Earth. “I don’t have anything going on today, so let’s go!”

“I can see that! Now you say it, he reminds me of the fox from that children’s book The Little Prince, even though that story was kinda sad…” 

“I’ve never read that one. What makes it so sad?”

❝No, I think I’m fine! It’s not as bad as when I had to carry stuff twice my size, so it’s totally—❞

She  stops  half  way as the bag rips and the fruits begin tumbling down the sidewalk, shortly touching the hill.

At the sight of the girl’s fruit rapidly rolling down the street, his eyes widen. What were the odds of that happening?! Turning to her before racing after the escapees —

“I’ll get them!!”

Chopper lowered his head with a weak smile, unintimidated by the man’s appearance. The young man was concerned, so he probably wasn’t a bad person. “I’m fine. It was just almost after all.”

“People bumping into you doesn’t feel good, though.” Not that Takeo knew from first hand experience. Most people tended to give him a wide berth, which he didn’t particularly mind. “They were probably in a rush to to get to that new ice cream place that just opened a few blocks away.”

“So.. does a big guy like you have a girlfriend?” She was willing to bet he liked the sweet girls who would fawn over him. He was like a big, muscular teddy bear. Couldn’t she just have a squeeze?

“Fruit tart sounds great! Don’t over-work yourself now, I’m sure you’d make someone sad if you got sick.” Okay, she might be teasing him a bit. He kindof made her want to bully him.

“I do! Her name is Yamato.” If there was one thing Takeo never minded, it was talking about Yamato. After all, it was because of her that he had taken the steps to find this job in the first place.

“Of course! Our fruit tart cake is delicious.” Not as great as anything Yamato baked, but it was still welcomed on his pallet. At the girl’s next comment, he gave a firm nod of his head. “Don’t worry. I do a lot more work than this just at school — with sports and everything.”
