“Hana-chan!” Two hands lightly touched the girl’s shoulder. Shaking
back and forth, rocking her with little force in waking up in the small girl.
“Time to wake up.” Angelic voice filled the room when shelves of books were
stacked in the area the two girls were at. Light orange hair fell on part of
her shoulder, lips press together lightly with her skirt falling lightly on
part of her back legs. The other girl stood with hands on both of her sides. Inside
the girl had been sleeping under a rectangle table that had sofa size of those
bench chairs in restaurants. Two on each side. A pink bean-bag chair, a
computer monitor only for library access to find books. The shelves had many
books inside the first floor. “Hana-chan, I can see your panties. I wonder if
they sell on E-bay.” Teasing the female moved closer; legs went to the ground
along with her two hands.
Crawling toward the girl who had no idea or perhaps
she went here for peace and quiet. Leaning forward slowly’ part of the
chocolate hair fell forward making her difficult to keep from touching the
other girl’s skin. “H-a-n-a.” No luck again! “Wake up!” The female moved both
hands at her sides when--- “N-No! Stop that, Azu-chan!” Both of Hana’s hands
moved to stop the tickling. Laughing in a soft tone; legs kicked forward with
the other girl pulling away. It worked every time with her being ticklish.
“Azu-chan…!” Crawling out her orange hair was sticking up. “Good you woke up!
After all, you had fallen asleep-again!” Leaning away Azumi left out from
underneath the table. Seeing the lady in the same outfit-only wearing pants.
“Wait, Azu-chan!”
Bowing toward the lady before picking up her bag with books inside.
Azumi felt the happiness of waking her up. Each day it was the same though it
did not bother her. Seeing how they are friends. “You were adorable.” Hana
cheeks puffedout with making faces at Azumi. “You should stop sleeping at 2 am.
It no wonder you’re so tired…” Using one hand, the bag’s elastic fabric would
swing over her right shoulder. “Hana-chan, where are your shoes?” Raising one
eye brow, hands picked against her two hips. Looking down making a frown, lips
curved downward only to pout. “The manga was too good to put down. S-So I
finished it, and then read it again four times!” Speaking out loud the petite
girl was talking about the elves, mages, ogres, and the humans.
“Alright,
alright…. Hana-chan, you should at least go to bed early. Working is ot a
problem but…” Pausing her finger would press against her lips. “Azu-chan, I
think you should read it! The world of demons is coming up next an---“Suddenly
her voice stopped when feeling Azumi’s lips collide with hers. Red would fill
in the white skin on Hana.
“A-Azu-Chan!” Covering her face the many people whistled at seeing
two girls kiss. “Come on, miss Fairy. Let us go off to food ville.” Shaking her
head, lips would form a smile at her loony friend. Time had passed for both f
them. They had met at a park with playing with the sand. Silly to compete
against each other in who made the best one. They had both fell into friendship
after that. Never being separate until---
“Hana-chan….I have to tell you something. We should get some food.” The
tone in her voice put worry in Hana. Why did she say that? Could it be she
wants to leave? N-No! I do not want this… The two walks down the street toward
the main mall building. It was late---at least at ten o clock. “Azu-chan, I-I
can change. S-So, please do not say good—“ Stopping to a halt; hands moved
around Hana’s back. “Sh! I am not going anywhere or will I leave you. I promise
that, Hana-chan.” Gently stroking down her back lightly. Nodding her head the
two girls walked inside with a fresh smell of sandwich. “Welcome young ladies.”
Greeted by a male holding a tray of Jello in different flavors. “A-Azu-chan,
t-the food!” A finger pointed toward the tray with salvia dropping. ‘Oh,
Hana-chan! What am I going to do with you?” Tall slender male had on the butler
outfit. “We got a free butler.” Hana reached for Jello when Azumi grabbed her
hand. “Hana-chan! Don’t just grab.” A soft chuckle left his lips from the
scene. “Do not worry. She can have the entire tray.” Blue orbs widen at his
words, lips opened slightly from shock. “Go on, Hana.” Fingers lightly touched
the silver tray when the male hand raised. “Milady, let me take it to a table.”
His voice was soft with a British accent. “How nice!” Azumi felt her heart ache
just seeing this man act nice. Why was he being nice to her?
“Are we jealous?” Walking down the walk way with a smirk. “I am not!”
Stomping over to Hana. “Come on, we better follow. You want that Jello, right?”
Moving her head up then down, a hand would grab Azumi’s tightly. “Do not be
mad. I-I won’t love anyone else. You are my one, my only Azumi.” Leaning forward
toward the female; lips pressed against Azumi right cheek, gently and slowly
leaving a peck against the soft skin. Two red circles were on the female’s
cheeks of embarrassment. “Hana-chan…” Looking away her head would stare at the
people. Two couples held hands with each other. Two eyes narrowed at the sight,
turning her eyes back to meet Hana’s blue eyes. “Thank you, Hana-chan.”
Two feet walked toward the bench seat. Eyes stared at the male. The
tray was already placed on the center. In the back area had many other tables,
bench seats were the only place to sit down. On each table had a vase with a
few flowers. It smelled nice with a scent of Vanilla. “Your food is served, my
Queen.” Using one hand, he lowered his head with bowing in respect. “The name
is Mikaos.” Flipping her brown hair, a hand would place on her hip. Azumi shook
her head. “Thank you…we can serve ourselves.” Speaking in a rude tone to warn
him. “Now leave!” “Azu-chan, don’t you t-think that is mean?” Taking a seat;
her bottom touched the purple cushion right beside Hana.
“Do not worry, Miss
Hana. I am use to th—“Giving him the cold stare had sent him away quickly. “He
just put me on edge.” With her speaking out loud the wheels inside her brain
began to turn. “Azu-chan is thinking again.” A soft giggle left her lips,
reaching a hand for the Jello, touching the soft food made her fingerprints
become imprinted on it. “No…I don’t care. All I need is to tell you of my….”
Lips stopped completely when thinking of the mall. When had they hired a
butler? If so, why only one? He was targeting someone… “Azu-chan?” Two eyes
filled with worry over her friend. Had she upset her?
Eating in silence for fifteen minutes. The silence had put Hana in a
big panic. Only way Azumi would speak is if she gets her attention. But how?
Staring at her serious expression was enough of an answer. “Azu?” Fingers poked right on her right cheek. The
long brown hair really had beautiful color when out in the sunlight. It had a
little glow; enough to put Hana in a time freeze. Yes, it was silly to have a
crush on a friend. But… she was gorgeous! In her white tank top, another shirt
covered it that had a purple color, at the bottom was ripped for fashion. The
blue jean shorts ended at her top legs.
Leaving the eyes to see her
long-hairless legs. Only thing left were her black boots. On the front side;
black and purple were on the buckles of the shoes. With style her hair had been
in a bun with a pink rose off to the side, only to be tied by a ribbon. The
outfit I wore was not so pretty. A log sleeve white shirt had been worn. On the
chest area; was a black vest with small black buttons. For the skirt there was
small white ruffles underneath. The only thing in style was the socks, checkered
black and white. Silly I know-no shoes.
It was time she had woken up and told the problem. Lips locked in a
serious line. No more hiding! Turning toward Azumi, hands reached out grabbing
her cheeks, slowly moving toward her lips. They were not moved. Now for her
plan… Slowly lips had been inches apart. Closer… closer. Opening her small
lips, a soft giggle escaped when the pin tongue moved over toward the side of
her neck. Licking over on the left side, slowly raising up in a straight line
up on her jaw. “Eek!” Jumping up a few people around had looked. Shaking their
heads; whispering of ‘that is disgusting! It should be banned…’ Azumi grabbed her
neck, lips formed a small smile. She was worried again… “Azu-chan, speak to me!
I hate when you are quiet. It worries me…”
“Gomen---I am thinking of that butler.” Truthfully she worried he was
after Hana. The news giving her best friend was hard to tell. “About the news…I-I
am feeling sorry for hurting you this way.” Hurting? What was to be told? Azumi
turned to the right, facing the eyes that mirrored hers. “Hana-chan…I have urgent news. Gomen—It had been forced o
me.” Lifting her chest, air came out of her lips. Then lifting it down the eyes
looked down. “I have to move—to the United States. I-I am sorry for this.” The
news shocked Hana with fear in her eyes. Move…?! No! Why does this have to
happen? Arms wrapped around Azumi’s waist, laying on top of her legs with tears
falling out of her two eyes.
“No, why?! I want you to stay.” Fingers gripped
the fabric with never wanting to let go. “Please don’t cry! Please…” Gently the
fingers run through Hana’s orange hair. “Azu-chan…why? Why?! Can’t you stay?”
The tone was hard to hear. Eyes closed with fear this would happen. Every girl
had that stuck up attitude. It made her hate women. Except-Hanna who always
made her laugh and trust her. That what changed her reasons against woman. How
she wished to take with her. “I will be back.” Another gentle stroke on top of
her head. “When?” Azumi bit her bottom lip, fingers stopped against Hana back. “I
hate to say but---one year from now.” Hana lifted her head with red lines
underneath both of her eyes. They were puffy from crying so hard. “A year…” Right
now it was June 1st. In the summer which was quite hot here. In
Japan, Tokyo the time they lived together had been long but, now this is where
they say goodbye.
“Do not feel sad, Hana. I will return in a year. I-I will still call
you!” In a reassuring voice her fingers lightly stroke each side of Hana
cheeks. “Azu-chan, I want you to promise in calling me. I hate to lose our
connection.” With her head nodding, lips pressed on top of the other’s
forehead. “We should go. I already have my things packed.” Hana had to swallow
roughly. Everything was going too fast. Why today…?
Azumi walked with Hana down the street to her car. It was a mustang
that had purple for the color. On the right side had a butterfly design.
Silence filled the car ride when both of them left the mall. Mikaos had watched
from inside. His body was attractive to many girls who came. The butler my
story made Hana question it too. “Can you drive home?” Hana puffed her cheeks
out with that ‘of course’ look. “Oh, Hana-chan. I will miss you every day. That
look, those days at the library. Please be careful… and NO sleeping at work!” A right index finger pointed at Hana nose. “Y-Yes,
I will try!” Lips formed a warm smile at Azumi. It was their smiles that kept
the tears away.
The purple car pulled up right at the side walk. Parking the car;
Azumi moved her finger against the seat belt button when a ‘click’ was heard. The
seat belt was pulled away from locking Azumi in the seat. “Well…” Hana arms
wrapped around her waist. Giving one last hug the two had all the memories. “I
will call in the morning.” The door opened with her moving two legs on the
concrete. When her body left the car; all the tears fell. The one person who understood
me is now gone!
After seeing Azumi look back, eyes filled with tears. The job as a
nurse in going overseas toward the United States was exciting. Yet, she didn’t
like leaving the one person who changed her. It was painful, yet deep down
feeling that pain right into her chest. Pushing inside the airport with one
thing---no Hana Haku. The one good luck girl. Well, it was time to move past
the pain. This is not goodbye…. It was a step forward.
Switching into the driver seat; fingers had wiped away the tears
falling down Hana’s cheeks. “It time to go…back home alone.” Living with Azumi
was the best choice. Now, it was a test to work hard just for her. I can’t give
up now…
Driving home was calm-peaceful, but quiet. It was something missing.
Driving down a straight road in Tokyo. The city was busy as usual though her
heart felt a knife been stabbed. No! I need to be strong for Azumi. Turning the
wheel, the road had a curvy line going up toward a house. It was the place
Azumi and Hana picked together. Color had a mix. Light blue with a light purple
added to it. In the front were rose bushes of different colors. Pink, red,
blue, purple, and, white. Azumi loved to plant different flowers around the
house. It had brought a new life. Something peaceful and purity.
Taking a left, the car slowly drives in with a black, Iron Gate
slowly opening. At the front had a male who we found on the street. He was
unique or--- so I thought. “Fufu, how was the day?” The black haired boy had
light purple eyes that shined in the sun light. His slender body was skinny
with certain warmth. “No visitors but, where is Azu-chan?” He had on a black
long sleeve shirt, along with some blue jeans. “She…well, had a job business overseas.”
The truth hurt us more than anything. Looking down where he stood. “Poor you
both. I will be in shortly.” Giving him a nod, lips formed a small smile in
showing some happiness. Driving inside toward the garage. Taking a right there
was where the car be parked. Seeing the doors opened; slowly pressing on the accelerate petal, the car was moving forward. Once parked;
the key was turned left to shut the machine off. Safely drive home---check.
Stepping outside the cool breeze felt nice. Blowing her hair around,
moving part of her hand in pushing strands of hair out of the way. The house
looked tall with bricks standing tall. Taking a few steps, legs reached the
steps that had led up to a giant porch. On part of it; plants were in pots
filled with dirt. All of this was made by Azumi. The plants had come to life
from her. Quickly moving toward the door with keys brought out of her pocket. Finding
the door keys. Sticking the key inside the keyhole, slowly turning when hearing
footsteps behind her. “Hana, you are slow. Shouldn’t you be inside?” Grabbing
part of her shirt, lips opened so her tongue could come out. Fufu let out a
chuckle when seeing she still was a little happy. The two walked inside with
quickness. When inside the door was closed shut.
“I am so beat!” The male jumped on the sofa with his body just
slouching over. “Fufu, you are quite lazy.” Hana had teased him about that.
Food had not tasted ven after Azumi left. “Hana-chan! You can’t say that. I
worked hard an—“ Soft giggling left Hana lips at his comment. “No, no I was
only teasing. I-I just want to go sleep early tonight.” The news from Azumi had
hit everyone hard. Fufu knew that the Hana he saw was long gone or---sad. “Alright
Hana-chan. You can sleep…” His eyes filled with sorrow of her leaving. It was
he let her recover before anything else. Hana noticed his eyes were sad. It
hurt her heart when moving two hands on top of his shoulders.”D-Do, you want to
well, stay with me?” The male eyes widen at the thought. His bright purple eyes
looked Hana in the eyes. “Are you sure?” Nodding her head, hands would wrap
around Fufu’s hands. “Come on, Fufu-kun.”
Walking up the stairs had both of them whining. At the top stairs;
both of the two looked at each other. “Hana…” Fufu cheeks were a light shade as
he took her hand leading toward her room. It was stupid in asking Fufu of this.
He was sweet, caring, nice, and knew my pain. “I have something to tell you…”
Wait! Don’t tell me he is leaving too! “No! You c-can’t leave me too. I-I…” Part
of his body stopped when seeing Hana break down. “N-No, I meant when we get
there. Hana-chan…” How could he say this? Azu-chan, must have said the exact
same thing. He truly was an idiot. “Don’t cry…” Truthfully they both reacted
the same. It made the pain even harsher. I know crying was selfish and even
asking him to sleep with me was EVEN more stupid. I just had no time or fear
being alone.
Pulling from the hand, lead Hana straight to her room. Inside had few
clothes on the floor. Looking on the bed; it was clear with the blanket neatly
placed. “Fufu…if you are uncomfortable…I-I can sleep alone.” He was silent. Why
did he lead me? Is he actually leaving? “Fufu-kun I---“Arms pulled around the
back of Hana when feeling their bodies collide. “I did not mean to hurt you. I
really had been holding back all my feelings.” His words echoed inside. They
were soft, yet fear sank in. “I-I… hate to hurt you again! But no I am not
leaving if you think that. Please forgive me.” Raven hair fell down toward his
right eye. “….” Hana felt in her chest was only pain a fast heart beating. “Fufu…”
Pulling forward the actions were fast. To her it played slowly, Slow…even
slower when feeling something soft. It was nothing but, his soft thin lips.
They held her heart for so long. It drove her crazy even shocked.
Had she been blind all this time?
One minute passed when Fufu pulled away. Moving his bang away, eyes
shifted toward her eyes. “I—I am sorry! Did, I hurt…you?” Fufu was still the
same. Even when he kissed. “Oh, Fufu-kun! You do not have to apologize but, a
kiss?” He pulled away so suddenly when feeling her eyes pierce his. “I-I had to
let you know. Even if you refuse me. This will be our gate to move forward o---“
“Yes, yes!” Fufu eyes widen from her words. “Yes…to what?” A hand would smack
his chest when pulling his body over toward the teddy bear blanket. “Yes, I
accept your confession.”
Fufu sat on the bed in shock. “But…Hana I---“ His lips
were silence once more by a finger. “Fufu, you been here since a little boy. My
parents took you in I know I am selfish asking but, can you sleep with me?”
Jumping a little his body laid down on the pillow. Covering his dark red face
with embarrassment. Hana got up off the bed. “Let me get changed.” Leaving to
her closet, fingers rubbed the night gowns. Grabbing a pink one with hearts at
the bottom. Had she really accepted? It was too fast! Moving to the bed. He
laid there still with his own thoughts. She was sure he question his logic.
Taking off all her clothes had been hard. Always Azumi had dressed her and
now--- “Are you crying?” Nodding he rhead, tears fell from both of her eyes.
The pain hit his chest from seeing her like that. “I—I use to have Azumi dress
me bu---“ The words stopped when feeling her body pulled right on the bed. It felt
warm with his chest acting like a pillow. “Do not cry no more. I will protect you;
even kill whoever has harmed you…” Hana felt happy yet, scared he will kill
Azumi. “I do not mean Azumi! She had no choice and this is painful to her too!”
Feeling a cold breeze; Hana moved under the blanket quickly. “W-What are yo—“ Hana
wrapped her arms around Fufu. “Warm…”
Baka-Hana! What will Azu do? He was sweet, yet…I love them both.
Gripping tightly on his back shirt, tears came falling down both her
cheeks. “Baka…stop that!” Fufu ran his fingers in her hair slowly. She felt
cold even soft. Why? He ran his hands down thinking she was dressed. Had he
pulled her too soon? Azumi…will kill him! Hana lay her head up against his
chest. Fingers ran against his back. “Hana…y-you want to wear y-your clothes?”
Letting out a gasp, cheeks hid on top of his chest. “No…I want to sleep.” He
had a tight hold of her into his arms. Pounding… pounding. It was hard to
silence it. Shut up! He had told his heart. No luck…
“Fufu-kun… you are cute when embarrassed I---“ Fufu looked away from
contact. “No! Hana, you need rest. I-I will take care of you. I will!” Laughing
from his reaction was too cute. “Alright, alright Fufu. I love you, Fufu-kun.”
It was nerve-racking to say it. But truthfully she felt he was someone to
trust. “Hana…” Closing eyes softly, she had prayed for Azumi safely. Fufu
noticed she fell asleep. Kissing top of her forehead when he closed his eyes to
sleep. What would she say if I had feelings for you both?
A full moon shined through when seeing the two. Mikaos opened the
window, a small creak made them both move a bit. “Such young love…I want to
have some fun!” He reached down scooping Hana away. The moon had a red glow
when he left the window with Hana in his arms.
It was time to start this little party---or shall I say, the new
world?
