Chapter 1

Haruka sat on her bed looking at the old pictures that she had found while cleaning her desk. A small smile formed on her lips, as she gazed at the photo that she held between her thumb and her forefinger. The old picture was of a young girl, no older than thirteen. She was carefree, laughing as her aqua locks blew in the wind. Haruka remembered that day; it was the last week of summer before their first year of high school. The girl in the picture, Michiru Kaioh, is her best friend...Well, she was her best friend.

-Flashback-

Long summer days and sweet summer nights...They were inseparable. A few weeks before their first year of high school, they wanted to spend every moment together. They were best friends.

Haruka, chased after Michiru, camera in hand through a grassy field. The place they went to get away. Michiru let out a gleeful squeal when Haruka grabbed her from behind and pulled her to the ground. They lay there for a while, just laughing together. Michiru rested her head on Haruka's shoulder; the clicking sound of the camera was all that could be heard as Michiru took pictures of the clouds. Haruka ran her fingers through her sandy blonde hair; she had let her hair grow longer than usual, she wanted a change. She felt Michiru snuggle up closer to her, her head now rested on Haruka's chest.

"I don't want the summer to be over", said Michiru pouting.

Haruka wrapped her arms around Michiru. "Don't worry, I'll stay with you," she said with a smile. Michiru leaned in and placed a soft kiss on Haruka's lips. Haruka smiled. Michiru ruffled Haruka's hair with a laugh. "You're going to cut this before school starts though, right?" she teased. Haruka laughed and rolled on top of Michiru straddling her. Her hands pressed the ground at either side of Michiru's face. Haruka leaned in close to Michiru's face, "You love my hair," she whispered softly before smiling. Michiru quickly snapped a picture of Haruka and smiled. She ran her fingers through the blonde's hair and let her hand trail down her face, her hand rested on Haruka's cheek. "I love you", she said closing the space between herself and Haruka and taking the blonde's lips with hers.

-End of flashback-

It seemed so long ago that Haruka and Michiru had talked. Everything changed after that day. The first day of school Michiru avoided Haruka, and she continued to do so throughout their remaining years of high school. Now, Haruka and Michiru were approaching the end of their final high school year and they hadn't spoken to each other since that day captured in that picture.

Ever since the first day in grade nine, Haruka had resorted to watching Michiru from afar. 'What I wouldn't give to talk to her...to kiss her...or just to hold her' Haruka thought to herself. She let out a sad sigh and gazed longingly at the picture of her former friend.

"…Michiru…" she said softly. Tears began to pool in her eyes... "I hate you." Haruka closed her eyes and clenched her jaw, a tear slid down her cheek... She re-opened her eyes and stared at the picture. Michiru's smile tore through her heart. "…I hate you…" Haruka choked out. "…I hate you for abandoning me" her voice shook. "I needed you. I hate you." Tears now streamed steadily down Haruka's face and onto the photograph. She hoped that if she told herself that she hated Michiru enough times that she'd believe it. That the pain would go away.

"Michiru…" Haruka said, her voice barely a whisper, her eyes still unable to look away from the picture "…I hate you…because you hate me".

Haruka crushed the picture into a loose wad and tossed it into the trashcan.

She fell back onto her bed, and stared blankly at the ceiling. She closed her eyes and rested her head on her hands.

"Nope..." she chuckled desperately. "…Still hurts."

To be continued…
