A/N: Well, here it is. My second fanfic. This is not purely Namixas, unfortunately, but I hope you enjoy it as much as you did my main fanfic. I'll be working on this from the side. After all, this will just be a four-shot, covering the seasons. Hee. Oh, and I'm extremely sorry, but I can't seem to pull of an in-game fanfic as of now. D: Maybe in the future. So this will be AU again.

Well, cheers. Enjoy~

Seasons of Love

Spring.

It was the season of rebirth, of recuperating from the past year, past seasons. It was the time for plants to start growing, for flowers to start blooming, for the land to turn greener yet again. It was the time for laughter and for coming out of one's shell, being reborn into the world. It was the perfect time to be happy.

But then you could be happy any time at all, and not so when you felt like it. Being happy during spring seemed as much an obligation to other people as breathing, but some believed not.

For example, right now, a certain redheaded female stalked the halls of her DI High, furious. The people who saw her got out of her way, there were still quite a few left that were finishing up club activities—and there was no arguing with Kairi Masami when she was this way. It was this time when her eyes were flashing, and she was willing to shove anyone who got in her way until she reached her destination—which unfortunately turned out to be a tall sakura tree, with a snoozing, brown-haired boy underneath, his arms behind his head in a posture of relaxation. Taking a deep breath, Kairi prepared to shriek.

"Sora!" she cried, those two syllables laced with discontent and irritation.

The brunette was jolted out of an obviously good dream. Blinking, he peered up at the girl with groggy, but bright blue eyes, an eyebrow raised.

"Kairi?"

She rolled her eyes. "Yes, bedhead, it's me." She told him, plopping down on one of the benches that encircled said tree.

He smiled, turning cheerful. "Hey, Kai," he greeted belatedly, rubbing his eyes. "What's up?"

"Oh, nothing," Kairi replied sweetly. "Do you know what time it is?"

Sora glanced at his watch, noting that it read just a little before six. "It's a nearly six," he answered. He turned a curious gaze on Kairi, noting her glare and her stance, which looked ready to punch him. "...Why?" he continued, a little warily.

"Well, Sora, dear," she told him, her voice still dripping with that acidic sweetness, "you were supposed to meet me an hour and a half ago. We agreed on that yesterday. Ring a bell?"

The brunette gulped and blinked, trying to hide his nervousness. It was true; they had agreed the day before to meet up after school so that he could walk her home—it was a tradition of sorts for the last day of school before spring break. And Sora had completely forgotten. He realized his mistake, and lifted his eyes up to Kairi's to apologize, only to find her back turned to him.

"Kai..." he said slowly, wondering how to go with this.

"Save it, Sora," Kairi practically growled, obviously upset.

He sighed; he really hated it when this happened. He hated it when Kairi was mad or upset or sad, especially if it was directed at him. Again, he sighed and stood up, coming to stand in front of the redhead. She turned her head, but she didn't get to have her body follow because Sora clasped her hand.

"Look, Kairi, I'm really sorry. I know I wasn't supposed to forget that... I can make it up to you, if it's okay? I'm really, really sorry."

A few heartbeats later, Kairi relaxed her rigid pose. She sighed, her hand briefly closing on Sora's before releasing it. "It's so hard to stay mad at you," she pouted.

Sora grinned then, knowing he had been forgiven fully. "It's a skill," he joked. "But then that's why you love me, right?"

Kairi's face suddenly matched her hair. "Shut up, lazy bum." Try as she might, though, she couldn't help but let a laugh escape her. "Yes, and I am only saying this once; that is why I love you." She rolled her eyes and used Sora's hand as leverage to pull herself up. "Now, about that compensation..."

The boy laughed. "Well, I'll treat you to dinner, how does that sound?"

"Oh, you'd better," Kairi replied, suddenly hungry, and grinned. "I think that makes up for it... mostly."

"Yay!" Sora cheered. "Come on, Kai, I know this great place..." He rattled on about some "favorite" restaurant of his, and Kairi just laughed, previous anger evaporated. She felt happy now. So this spring held promise for a brighter day after all.

A/N: There it is. :D I hope you found that amusing enough. Heehee. On a side note, this is not the SoKai fanfic I was planning—this is just an outlet for my love of the song "Seasons of Love" from the musical, Rent.

Okay, so I got a question. Who should I do for summer, fall, and winter? I already got Namixas as one pairing, but give me a season for them, please? And the other two pairings, well, give me suggestions for those too! If I don't get a reply to this question, all my anonymous readers will suffer from my pairing choices, because I really don't know. XD Oh, and I hope Sora wasn't very OOC in this chapter. D: Tell me if he is, or if Kairi is, okay?

So, leave a review, a PM, or anything to let me know what you think! Thanks for reading!
