I yawn and turn over in my bed. It is ten in the morning. "Nng?" I groan and sit up. The first thing I think of is Shinohara but I quickly push that thought from my mind.

"Stop it, Yoshiki, she'll never like you back!" I tell myself. Planning to go back to sleep, a loud 'ping' demands my i attention. I reach for my phone to see a message. Suddenly I feel myself flush. It's from Shinohara.

{Want to come to the park at one with me, Naomi and Mochida? ~Seiko}

{Love to ~Yoshiki}

Most likely, Satoshi and Nakashima will be with each other most of the time. Yet they hardly realise their affection for each other. So that means... It will probably be me and Shinohara together! This time I shall make every movement, every word count. All I want is to be loved back. People always say you will find someone, there is someone out there for you. If that's true and Shinohara really isn't meant for me, that means my soulmate probably got hit by a bus. Huh.

I prepare to leave, realising it's already five to one. "What have I been doing...? I'm gonna be late!"

I grab my phone, shove it in my jeans pocket and head for the park. It's not too far away so I can walk.

Seiko-

I sit at a bench. It was exactly one o clock. I see Naomi and Mochida approach me, not holding hands but walking close together. I smile smugly at them. As soon as they are near, I run towards them. "Naomi!" I shout and wrap my arms her waist, squeezing her tightly in an awkward hug. She pushes me away and smiles weakly. "Hey Seiko."

Mochida stood there awkwardly. "Hi Shinohara."

I wink at him. "So what have you two been up too?"

They both blush and don't answer. However, I am distracted my another presence. "Kishinuma! Hi!" I smile at him but strangely, he turns rather pink. "Hi... Sorry I'm late I was just a little... Occupied." He blushed again but I didn't want to push on further. Well, of course I did but I guess it wasn't fair.

We sit on the bench, Kishinuma on the end, then me, then Naomi and lastly Mochida. The last two seem to be sitting rather close together and I feel Kishinuma move sightly closer to me. "What you all been up to?" I ask.

"Just... Stuff." answers Mochida vaguely. I reach over and gently punch his arm. "Yeah, yeah. What have you really been doing?"

He rubs his arm and sighs, annoyed. Naomi decides to answer for him. "We've just been spending some time together, is all," she says casually but I can see that she's blushing. I am about to push on further for more details when she says "What about you two?"

I sigh. "Just looking after the family. Nothing better to do." I feel Kishinuma look at me but I don't make eye contact. When I'm with him, the atmosphere is… different. "What about you Kishinuma?" He sits up at the sound of his name. "Nothing really. Just been living my life I guess."

"Fair enough."

The four of us sit there, an unusual silence filling the air. It was peaceful but incomplete in a way. I feel a slight movement and look to my left. Naomi is resting her head on Mochida's shoulder. I giggle. Suddenly, Kishinuma moves so his hand brushes against mine. Without thinking, I grab it and I a light blush creeps onto both of our faces. I hear Naomi laugh and reach out to poke her. She laughs harder.

Yoshiki-

It's only three but there's not much to do here so I offer to walk Shinohara home. I am running out of ideas but I hear Satoshi ask Nakashima, so I, feeling like I have to do something, ask Shinohara. To my relief, she agrees, her cheeks tinted pink. Why is she blushing...? I suddenly realise I, too, am blushing. Nakashima and Satoshi are laughing knowingly and bid us goodbye. They walk off hand in hand. I turn to Shinohara. "Ready to go, Seiko?" I clap a hand over my mouth. Why did I call her by her first name? Blushing, I start to apologise. "Its fine," she giggles, "I don't mind... Yoshiki." I love the sound of my first name being spoken by her.

Seiko-

I reach out to stroke those soft blonde locks of his and I see his pale face is rather pink now. Is a relationship finally developing? And why am I so eager for it to? Do I like Yoshiki...? And even more thrilling: does he like me back?

He grabs my cold hand with his warm one. "Seiko..." He whispers in my ear, clearly enjoying using my name. Teasingly, I mutter his name back and together, we exit the park. The sun is fully out and it seems as though the tall trees were bowing down to us, making a path for us. Is this what it was like to be fully in love? I let my imagination wander as we silently but happily walk home.

We approach my house and at the front door, I place a small kiss on his cheek. Nothing special. But his blush was cute and I could tell it meant a lot to him. It certainly did to me.

That's the first chapter. Hope you liked it :3 I'm gonna alternate between Seishiki and Naoshi. Comment if you want more and thanks for reading xx
