The winter air so cold and crisp it hit Shin's skin he was shaking his jacket wasn't enough to keep his strong body warm. Kumiko was on his mind how was she keeping warm on these cold winter nights. He wanted to be the one keeping her warm, he walked passed her house and saw it was dark. Everyone must be a sleep he thought and he kept walking. Kumiko image was printed on his mind, her beauty was strong.

Though she had a flat chest and was very tomboyish in her figure and her glasses took away her sexy appeal. He was so mush entrance though she was the first to fight back and he liked that about her. Her kindness to the gang and sticking up for them even though they where guilty sometimes.

He wished that she was a wake so he could see her face in the moonlight. He kept walking and soon passed her house. He saw five guys walking tours him, should he stop he didn't think he had done anything wrong. He walked right in to one he said sorry and the guy grabbed him" hey punk, wanna fight" the big guy shin had bumped in to said. Shin said nothing and pulled himself away from the grip of the guy.

Shin made his way back to his house, he staggered up the stairs. He climbed in to his window , he climbed in to his bed and clasped. He wrapped the blanket around him and cuddled himself into it. Kumiko still haunted his mind, he tossed and turned thinking about her.

The next day at school he stared at Kumiko he was blushing. Kuma and Uchi looked at him and they pinched his cheeks " Shin's in love with Yankumi" they said Shin grabbed them off him. Class soon ended and Shin decide today he would revile his love for Yankumi.

He approached her , Kumiko looked up at him from her desk " Oh Sawada I thought you would have been the first to leave , why are you still here" She said in her sweet voice.

" Um Yankumi" he spoke

" Kumiko" came Shinohara's voice Kumiko and Shin both turned and Shin looked at Yankumi and saw she was blushing. He smiled and then Yankumi got up ignoring that Shin was there and walked out with Shinohara . Shin left up the stairs and walked out.

Outside Shin saw Kuma and Uchi waiting for him "Shin, What the hell why make us wait" Shin walked on passed them.

" come on guys" he said in his bad boy voice. He wanted to kill and/or just fight, he hated that Shinohara. He was pissed so he stopped and looked up into the sky "Damn Shinohara" he said showing his evil face

" what's the matter Shin" Kuma and Uchi said looking at him. Shin turned and smiled greatly " nothing you guys come on" Shin marched forward leaving Kuma and Uchi confused.

A few hours later Shin was alone again, the snow was gone today and the air just a little warm. He passed Yankumi's house, the lights where on. He saw a car pull up in front and he saw Shinohara get out and walk over to the other side. Shinohara opened the door and Yankumi stepped out. Shin froze and stared at them, Shinohara didn't invite Yankumi in any form. Yankumi blushed at Shinohara " thank you for bringing me home" Yankumi said smiling from ear to ear.

Shin felt so depressed he wanted to be the one to opened that door but he would invited her to a kiss. He waited until Yankumi went in to the house and Shinohara had left before he passed the house. As he walked passed the door it opened " Shin, Hi" came a sweet voice. Shin turned and it was Yankumi.

" Yankumi, Hi" Shin said stopping in his tracks. "what are you up to" Yankumi said leaning up against the door.

" oh nothing just thought id take a walk out side" Shin said trying to be cool and putting his hand in his lushes red hair.

"oh well you should be getting home, don't want to be late" Yankumi says waving to him "goodnight" she says. Shin smiles and starts walking off . In front of him is a patch of ice, Shin doesn't pay attention to it and keeps walking. As soon as his foot hits it, his foot gives out and he slips he yell out a loud scream. Yankumi and the gang rushed outside and found him. Yankumi checked him and he was okay just passed out from the bump still she thought it best to take him to the hospital. The Gang cared him to the hospital.
