The Last Ten Days to Live- prolougue, my fealings for her

"Ohgami!" Sakura ran out of the stage room in search of Ohgami skidding as she ran. "Ohgami!" She called again with her hands cupping her mouth.

"Hmm?" Two rooms down, Ohgami looked up from the broom he was using to see Sakura running franticly through the open doors.

"Ohgami!" Sakura's eyes seemed to be out of their sockets.

"It's alright Sakura. I can hear you. You can stop running now." Ohgami smiled and continued sweeping.

"That's the thing! I- can't- stop!"

"Oro!?" Ohgami looked up with his eyes coming out of his sockets as well. "S-Sakura! Wait! Stop!"

CRASH! "Huh?" Maria looked down at her feat. She could of sworn she felt and heard something coming from downstairs. "What could that of been?" She looked down at the table she was sitting at and stirred her tea a little. CRASH! Maria jumped a little bit. This time, she was sure she heard something come from downstairs. "...Sakura." She shook her head knowingly. Maria stood up and walked downstairs tword backstage.

Sakura landed on top of Ohgami in a 'pinning' position. She and Ohgami blushed furiously. "I, I am really sorry Ohgami! Really!" Sakura clasped her two hands together and then stood up. She then reached her hand out to try to pull Ohgami up.

"Ah. Thanks Sakura. It's okay." He smiled as he tried to stand up. "It was not your faul... Woah!" Sakura used a little to much strength and sent Ohgami flying on top of her this time. They were both speachless and might I add, blushing furiously. "Ahh... err... I am really sor..."

"What was that noise?" Maria came through the right door. "I heard noise. Is everything oka..." Maria stoped and stared at the posision that Ohgami and Sakura were in. An awkward silence filled the room. (Sweat drop) "Ohga..."

Ohgami stood up right away. "N-no seriously! It's not what it looks like! Seriously! She, I mean, socks, and sliding, and... err..."

Sakura stood up blushing and walked to Maria while Ohgami was busy babling nonsence. "It was my fault Maria-san. I mean, it was..."

Maria cocked her head. "You mean you wanted him that way?"

Sakura blushed furiously. "N-no! I tripped and then he came on top of me. I mean, not that way, its just that... well... I cant explain it. Just know it was not what it looked like." Sakura looked down half smiling blushing.

Maria looked a bit puzzled by Sakura's reaction. "Sakura, are you blushing?" Silence. Maria used her index finger to bring Sakura's chin up. "Did you get sunburned?"

Sakura sighed. Is she joking with me or is she clueless? "Umm, are you serious? Do you really think that?"

Maria gave out a chuckle and gave the 'what do you take me for?' face. "Of course not Sakura. I am not you."

Sakura blushed again. Maria looked up to see Ohgami still babling. "You alright there Ohgami?" Ohgami was not quite here and his mouth kept on moving.

(Sweat drop) "I guess Ohgami is going to be gone for a while." Sakura pushed up slightly closser to Maria without relising it.

Maria looked down at Sakura clearly uncomfortable with Sakura's sudden movement. "Umm Sakura..."

"Yeah?" Sakura looked up at Maria inocently.

"It's just that, well... you are really close." Maria blushed avoiding eye contact.

"What? Oh! Sorry!" Sakura pulled away from Maria quite embarrased.

"No problem." Maria smiled at Sakura reasuringly. Sakura still looked away embarassed and slightly depressed. Maria's smile dropped half way. "Hey." She said comfortingly. Sakura looked up. "You should get the hair out of you eyes. You have such a beautiful face." Maria took an index finger and put the strand behind her face.

"The same goes for you." Sakura's eyes grew glossy and shy.

Maria was taken aback and blushed out-of-control. "Why don't we go and make dinner for the troop. Just the two of us." She smiled and tried to change the topic.

Sakura smiled as they existed the room together. Wait a second, no one will be here with us. I stalled telling Maria-san my true feallings for her for a long time. I don't want to have to keep stalling! Even though she may not love me back... I have to tell her. "M-maria-san?" Sakura stopped walking followed by Maria.

"Yes Sakura? What is it?" Maria turned to face Sakura and walked a little closer.

Sakura studdered a little bit. "Maria-san, I have to tell you something." Sakura started to blush. "It has been on my chest for a while and is really important.

Maria looked seriously at her. "Well, what is it?" She could see Sakura was having a hard time speaking. Maria reached out and put a hand on Sakura's shoulder. "Sakura, you can tell me anything."

Sakura looked up with tears starting to fill her eyes. "Anything, and you still wont hate me?"

Maria was taked aback. "Y-yeah." She replied unsure.

"It's just that..." Sakura, you can do this. She has her hand on your shoulder. She is suporting you. Look... damn that's a nice hand. I have never sean it out of the glove... Okay! Enough stalling... oh no, I have been staling forever and she must truly think I am weird! Oh no! I am wasting even more time... "I, just wanted to let you know that... I see you as more then a team mate." She looked down blushing.

"S-Sakura. You are my friend to. What's so shocking about that?" Maria embraced Sakura into a hug. "You are truly close to me as well."

Sh-she hugged me... "N-no! That's not what I mean!" Maria pulled away from the hug. "What I mean to say is that I lo..."

DING! DING!

Maria and Sakura's heads shot forward. "Crap! Another Kouma!" Maria ran away from Sakura. "What are you doing!? Are you not coming!?" Maria pulled Sakura's hand and led her to where they neaded to be.

Yes, the ditzy one or should I say Sakura is me. This is my story. My tragety and my hearts end. And, this is the end of all dreams, the end of all time. The last story, and the last dreams that any human can dream. Theese are, the last ten days, of our lives.
