The world was still, quiet, and watching. Waiting for the girl with lengthy, flowing cherry pink hair to react, but she remain motionless as her mouth parted slowly. The wind seemed to slow down, settling into a clam breeze that passed her, letting her pink hair sway steadily, blowing away the pink strands of hair blocking her eyesight as she stared at the two figures.
"Oh." the words passed her lips before she could even process it accurately. The boy must have heard her because he turned around in a start, blond hair blowing in the same breeze, scarlet eyes showing the emotion of panic as he became conscious of the fact that he had just been caught. A girl with the same blond hair that reached to her upper arm broke away from him, turning to see why he seemed so preoccupied.
"Who's she?" she asked, blinking in vigilance, the boy just stared at the girl with hesitation, then looked back at his recent date and broke out in a smile and shrugged.
"I don't know, I thought she might have been your friend." he said, smiling and wrapping his arm around the other girl. "Do you want to go get ice cream, Lulu?"
Pain spread from her chest, her heart felt heavy, as she watched him smile at the girl, lying to her so easily. The color drained from her face as she realized that he could have lied just as easily with her. Which, for a fact, he did.
"Um," Lulu said, her voice faltering as she looked back at the heartbroken pinkette with uncertainty. "Sure. I, I guess." then she looked away from her date with the same hesitating look in her eyes and turned to smile at the other girl. "What's your name?"
"Amu." the girl whispered, looking at the boy with hurt brimming in her eyes, but as soon as their eyes almost met, he looked away. Lulu beamed at the girl and smiled, nodding. She didn't seem to notice her date squirming.
"Amu, hi! Nice to meet you, my name is Lulu." she said, holding out her hand, which Amu took gingerly. But Lulu didn't seem to detect anything. "And this is Tadase," she gestured to the boy next to her, and suddenly Amu felt as if her heart was going to sink. "would you like to come get ice cream with us?" she asked.
Amu looked at Tadase, who didn't try to meet her gaze, once again, as he stared at his shoes with sudden interest.
"No, that's fine." she replied, smiling at Lulu, though it hurt. Moving stung. Talking ached. Smiling, altogether, hurt the most. Lulu's smile wavered, but she nodded.
"Alright, it was nice meeting you." she said, and turned around to smile brightly at Tadase. "Do you want to go now?" he took another glance at Amu, and nodded.
"Yeah, let's go."
As they turned to leave, Amu felt her chest. But she couldn't feel anything.
Its seemed as if, finally, her heart, had shattered.
" " "
She felt vacant inside, she finally realized what they meant by a "life with no meaning." The word seemed to be covered in black and white, the warmth and excitement she felt a few hours ago had already vanished. Although she knew she probably should have, she didn't blame the boy with the vivid crimson red eyes at all, she only could blame herself. For being so vulnerable, so loose, and having too much hope. She must have turned into a nuisance, always cheerfully smiling at him, talking to him so freely. Telling him she loved him, she had no right to force her feelings on him.
She sighed, as she realized how selfish she was. This had to be her consequence. And then, she felt it.
The first drops of snow, on the tip of her nose, as the rest of its family poured over the street. Her eyes showed no real emotion as she lifted her hand, feeling the chill of winter dropping on her hands, and then it left her too as it melted. And soon, she felt even more hollow than before.
"Deck the halls with bows of holly," she sang softly, though the bubbly song sounded gloomy when she sang it. A smile was adorned on her lips, the tune seemed to blow out like a wind chime. "Falalalala, lalalala."
A new year was approaching, and she already knew what her resolution was going to be.
From now on, she would never burden anyone with her own selfish feelings.
" " "
"Amu! Welcome home, how was the date with Tadase?" Amu closed the door behind her, bright light hitting her face as tore off her shoes, digging her feet in the carpet. His name left another scar on her, though the feeling was unpleasant, she was already used to it.
"It was alright." she could hear the emotion drained from her voice, and was aware of how she sounded like a robot. She lowered her head as she entered the family room, taking her jacket off sourly.
"Amu, dear?" she bit her lower lip as she looked at into her mother's eyes. "Is there anything wrong?"
Maybe it was the way Midori looked at her daughter, with kind, caring and delicate eyes that seemed to burn with concern. Or maybe Amu had just kept her feelings cooped in too long.
But, then and there, she felt herself explode.
And she began crying.
