Chapter 1 -Summer Begins
***Lunchtime***
It's lunchtime at Drake High School on a sunny afternoon as Cherry Tachikawa and Adella Avalon meet under an old, oak tree in the courtyard.
"Two and a half more hours then school's out for summer!" Cheered Cherry while walking towards her long-time best friend Adella. "So, what are your plans? Any summer love?"
Adella's face began to blush, but then she snapped out of it, and wacked Cherry on the head.
Cherry knew Adella and Youko Kurama were in love with eachother, but they would never confess to it. She wanted to find some way to hook them up, and summer would have all the time needed to do just so.
With Yusuke's arm around Keiko, they joined Cherry and Adella. "You two better be prepared for the Biology final,"warned Yusuke.
"It wasn't that hard now, was it?" said Kurama as he and Hiei suprised the group from behind.
"Well, science is always your thing Kurama,"replied Yusuke looking at the ground dissappointed.
"Where's Kuwabara and Yukina?"asked Keiko, "I have to get this math book back to her."
"They're probably in the lunchline. You know how Kuwabara stuffs his face with food at every chance," said Hiei with a smirk. Everyone agreed.
The group soon had to split up to go to class; Cherry and Adella went to Biology, Yusuke and Keiko went to Spanish, Hiei and Kurama went to Art.
***After School***
RING! The school bell gave it's final call for the year. The group met on the front steps of Drake High, even Kuwabara was there, but Yukina was still unseen.
"I can't believe I'm going to be a Junior next year!" bragged Kuwabara.
"We're all going to be Juniors,"added Hiei then he whispered to Kurama,"I can't believe he actually made it through 2nd grade."
Kuwabara jumped,"Hey! I heard that you little punk!"
Cherry budged in to break a fight."You guys are talking about next year already? What about summer first? Oh, look! Yukina's out now!"
"Yukina? What? Where?"searched Kuwabara, "Oh, hey girl! You ready for me to walk you home?"
"Yeah, sure,"blushed Yukina as she waved everyone good bye and they left.
"Well, we all should get going," Adella stood up from her spot on the stairs next to Kurama.
Yusuke and Keiko walked hand in hand towards Blossom Park as Cherry, Adella, Kurama, and Hiei walked towards Summit, the complex where each of the eight lived with their families in apartments.
***The Rose Garden***
The four walked home passing chains of stores when they came to The Rose Garden.
"Cherry! The Rose Garden is finally open!" pointed Adella, her specialty is plant while Cherry's is energy impulse,"We have to go!" Adella tugged Cherry towards the entrance and the boys followed. Cherry would normally resist, but she saw this as an opportunity to have Adella and Kurama spend time together.
Inside the garden there were roses of every kind and color. The air was filled with sweet aroma and the site was breathtaking. Two cobble stoned paths led to opposite directions as the four entered.
Cherry turned to Adella and smiled,"Maybe you and Kurama should take the path on the right, and Hiei and I will take the path on the left. We'll meet you at the exit."
"That sounds good,"agreed Kurama.
Adella blushed then walked off with Kurama. Cherry and Hiei went their way as well.
Cherry took a deep breath enjoying the smell, "You gotta love roses! There's nothing to hate about them," she stopped and sat on a bench, "maybe we should give those two doves some extra time together."
Hiei sat next to Cherry, "So, you like playing matchmaker?"
"I don't need to play matchmaker. Adella and Kurama were already in love. I'm just giving her the confidence," Cherry stared at the peach colored roses next to the bench,"besides ...I don't want her to grow old and be alone. Everyone should have someone to be with."
"And what about you?"asked Hiei.
Cherry's eyes widened and she lost focus of the roses, "I don't know. I never looked for myself." Cherry stood up and walked to a bush of red roses to play with the petals. Hiei followed her.
Cherry broke the silence after a couple minutes, "In Makai I was arranged to marry the son of my mother's best friend. I felt it was ...too early...and scared that the person I was meant to be with ...was still out there."
Hiei saw Cherry's eyes begin to moisten, but she didn't cry."So you reject those who come close ...because you're waiting."
Cherry looked up at Hiei, but didn't say anything. They exited the garden and met with Adella and Kurama to walk home. On the way to Summit, Adella talked about the garden, but Cherry couldn't help thinking of her conversation with Hiei. He was right. She rejects those who come close to her because she is always waiting.
