Love:The Gift of Oneself

Author's Note: Well, this was an idea I had six months ago. I guess I was feeling in the Christmas mood, so I listened to the song, Last Christmas and came up with this. I hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own Hikaru no Go, it belongs to Yumi Hotta. I also don't own the song, Last Christmas. I only own the character Asami who however, is just a character I made for this fanfic.

Sai pointed to another spot on the Go board and Hikaru placed a black stone down. They were both silent. Focused completely on the game. Hikaru narrowed his eyes. He was aiming for a win. Never once, had he won a game against Sai.

Sai pointed to another spot on the board. Hikaru's eyes brightened. He was ready for a counterattack. Could Sai really have made such a stupid move?! Hikaru lifted a white stone from the goke, just as he was about to place it, a call came from downstairs.

"Hikaru! Oh, Hikaru! Look at the snow!"

It was his mom. Hikaru rolled his eyes and got up from the game. He headed straight towards the window and looked out. The place was overflowing with snow. White was everywhere you looked.

"Whoa!" Hikaru exclaimed in awe. He then thought of Christmas. He ran over to his bed, and jumped off of it to get to the other side. On his closet door, a calender showed when his games were and such. He flipped it to see that today was December 16th. Hikaru slapped his forehead. It was past the day. Touya's birthday was the 14th. He was two days late. He hadn't gotten him a gift or anything. Hikaru turned around to see the shiny, polished, kaya Go board in an empty corner of his room. It had an elegant design on the sides which were golden squiggly lines. It was the best board he had ever gotten, but he had never used it. He wanted the first game to be played on it to be against him and Touya. Hikaru sighed.

That's the gift that Touya had given him for his birthday. Yet, Hikaru had noting to give him back. Another Go board would mean nothing to Touya. He probably had a million by now. What about a gift for Christmas instead of his birthday? What if he combined the gifts? Hikaru sighed again and headed back over to Sai's side.

"Sai, what do you think I should get Touya for Christmas?" Sai blinked a few times before answering. "Something that would mean a lot to him." Sai said matter-of-factly. Hikaru sweat dropped.

"NO DUH!!!!" The half-blonde yelled. Exasperated, he laid down on his bed.

"Man, Touya. Why is it so hard to think of something for you?" He closed his eyes and after a quick nap, he jumped up. "Hey, Sai?! Let's go out and buy presents for everyone!" He jumped off the bed and ran downstairs not even waiting for Sai. Sai looked at the covered Go board and then figured there was nothing he could do about it, so he ran out after his host.

The snow was falling from the sky slowly now. It lingered and danced around in the sky for a while, and then it fell to the ground.

"You know, Sai," Hikaru said looking pretty annoyed as they strolled down the snowy sidewalks of the crowded Tokyo streets. "You don't have to follow me everywhere. I mean, I am 14. You look like my parent, or a child molester or something." Sai stared at Hikaru, a questioned look pulling on his face.

Hikaru groaned. "In other words, quit following me! You could at least go over there." Hikaru pointed at another store a while away from where Hikaru was heading.

"B-but, nobody can even see me. Sai stammered. However, Hikaru was already leaving him. The purple-haired ghost sighed and headed in the direction to which Hikaru had been pointing. He mumbled as he walked alone.

"Hikaru is so mean sometimes." Sai's eyes were on the snow covered ground so he was obviously oblivious to the figure turning the corner in a hurry. They both ran into each other and the other figure's belongings spilled all over the place.

Sai was shocked.

Had they actually, RAN INTO EACH OTHER!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! He was a ghost. That's impossible. He couldn't touch. He must have been daydreaming, she must have bumped into someone else. There had to be something to explain this. Sai looked up, his head was throbbing. He was about to leave but he felt something under his hand.

Opening his eyes, Sai saw that his hand was laying on top of the person he had bumped into. He looked up and both people's eyes met. The figure was a beautiful woman. She had eyes the color of an iris flower, and her violet hair cascaded elegantly down her back and on one shoulder. She felt Sai's hand on top of hers.

She looked at him a little bit more closely. He was extremely handsome.

Suddenly, Sai's mind began to process that his hand was on hers. His entire face turned about 33 different shades of red. He quickly pulled his hand away. "I'm sorry." He stammered not making eye contact. Sai hurried to his feet and ran off.

As the woman watched Sai hurry off, she knew he was shy, so she didn't blame him for not helping with the gifts. She gathered them up herself and then began to wander what his name was and if they'd ever meet again.
