The Moment I Saw You
~ W.K.

Prologue

Today, I decided to skip my classes. It has been a boring day so far, walking in places where there are crowded people. Checking out a few clothing store and going out without buying anything from it. And then I started pondering as to why I skipped classes. Oh, it was Yuuno-kun.

'I love you, Nanoha. Please go out with me.'

'I'm sorry. Yuuno-kun… I-"

'You don't have to answer me right away, think about it first.'

I kept on walking in the crowd. Bumping into people I didn't know. Slightly tripping, even if the ground is flat, fixing my uniform every now and then, while looking for new places to go to. I left Vivio in Hayate's home for today, since she decided that she would be doing her thesis at home and skip school.

Yuuno has been one of my good friends since I was nine years old. But… he has always been… 'Just a friend,' I don't even know how I can turn him down without hurting his feelings, or how to go back on how we used to be. Yuuno-kun is only a friend. I stopped walking for a while and felt a slight bump on my left shoulder.

"Sorry," I looked at from whom the voice came from and saw a streak of blonde hair pass across my face. I thought she was unfamiliar, but this strawberry scent from her hair that was gallantly swayed by the wind. Why is it so nostalgic to me?

The figure that bumped into me stopped on her tracks, she was wearing an all black outfit, and she also has long blonde hair with a black ribbon tied at the bottom. 'A student from the Enforcer Department?' I thought to myself. When she turned to look at me, I felt my heart skip a bit. At the same time, I felt heat stroke creep into my skin… into my head. I might've been sweating a lot.

She looked so disturbed, so distracted. This cute girl with brownish hair, at least a head shorter than I am, has been walking in this district for at least three hours. I have seen those four men by that alley eyeing this girl with quite a few good looks at her body, and luscious chest. I should try to save her so I'll be waiting here for a while.

But this girl, she looked so familiar, too familiar. I just suddenly had the urge to… hug her, touch her, and keep her protected in my arms. My face turned red a little, because of the aggressive thought. But before I realized, I already bumped into her shoulder.

I stared into her slate blue eyes, catching the sweet scent of cinnamon that obviously came from a bakery. My eyes widened so… I turned around to face her.

"I… I've been looking for you," I didn't know what came over me, but, that, must've been my true feelings. "Nanoha." I breathed her name, syllable by syllable, as I saw her face blush, I did so myself.

She looked at me with worry, confusion, and happiness written all over her face. She opened her mouth.

"F-Fate-cha-.." Before I heard my name uttered fully… she collapsed as I caught her in my arms. Nanoha had never been good with crowds. Having a little heat stroke amidst the sun shining up above and people chattering and walking all around is not something new.

I brought her to a nearby bench and let her lie down with her head on my lap. I looked at her face, and scanned her peaceful expression. She had been wearing a white and blue uniform. 'Instructor Division? We have been in the same university and I didn't know?' I thought to myself and removed a strand of hair that's been going inside her nose for a while now. I laughed to myself.

"I missed you, Nanoha."
