Let your hair down
We sat in a field of blooming flowers. He was there, smiling at me with those open eyes, running his finger through my hair, and giving me little kisses on my nose. I couldn't have been happier. He was my everything. He still is. He's taught me so many lessons in my life with him. From silly lessons like not bothering him during his napping time, to serious lessons like always following your heart.
"Hey, Touko?" N asked. I turned my head to face him.
"Yeah?" I responded. He reached out and pulled me closer to him. I felt my heartbeat quicken. I blushed.
"N?" I asked, unsure what he was doing. N smiled and gripped my hand in his.
"Touko, why do you always have your hair up in a ponytail? He questioned.
"I… Um… Why? N, why do you need to know?" I answered. He reached up and pulled my cap off my head.
"Because I've always wondered what you'd look like with your hair down," He started to fiddle with my hair band.
"H-Hey! In that case, you have to put your hair down too!" I swatted his hand away. He looked at me oddly.
"Ok. We'll do it at the same time!" He pulled off his cap and laid it next to mine.
"Fine…" I muttered. I began to undo my hair band while he struggled to do the same.
"Ok," He finally got a hold of his hair, "On three! One, two…" I held my hair in place with my hand.
"Three!" I released it. I looked up at N shyly. Then I looked at him in shock. His hair was unruly and wild when released. It stuck out in five different places, each a completely different direction from each other. I cringed at the mere sight of it.
"Wow, Touko. Why don't you normally leave your hair down?" He ran his hands through my wavy hair and I blushed.
"Because it gets in my way, and it looks bad," I answered and grasped his hand. It was holding a strand of my hair.
"No it doesn't. I think you look better with it down," He beamed.
"Well, it still gets in my way," I retorted, stubborn as a Tauros.
"How about this? If you leave your hair down, I will too!" He laughed at his 'genius'.
"Anything but that. Look, if it really matters to you, I'll leave my hair down. There's only one condition," He stopped laughing at looked at me when I paused, "You must NEVER let your hair down again," He started chuckling and nodded. I stuck my tongue out at him playfully. He grinned at put his hair back up in a ponytail. All the sudden he leaned forward.
"Touko, you have something in your hair. One sec, let me get it out," He said. He put his hand on the side of my head. What? What was in my-?
He swept his hand behind my head and pulled me forward into a sweet kiss. I let my self-melt into his arms as the flowers around us blossomed beautifully, just like our love.
