For the past few weeks Coco had been visiting Earthland. She knew that she probably should have told someone else that she'd found out how to get there, but she just kept forgetting... at least, that's what she planned to say if anyone found out.
Normally she'd arrive then go hunt for people to make friends with, however, today was different. Today she simply sat on a riverbank close to where she'd arrived and stared at her reflection. She wasn't quite sure how long she'd been there, but it had been quite some time, when she was approached. She saw another figure's reflection in the river and didn't even bother turning back. She could recognise who it was already.
Pink hair, ram horns, pretty white clothes. It could only be one person, Aries. She'd met Aries some time ago when she'd first travelled to Earthland and she had learnt that Aries was a Celestial Spirit under Contract with the Princess. She wasn't quite sure what that meant, but she assumed it was something like how everyone in Edolas served under the King.
"A-are you alright, Coco?" Aries asked cautiously, before adding, "I'm sorry."
Coco couldn't hold it in anymore. Tears started to run down her face, and soon she couldn't hold in her misery anymore. She whirled around so she was facing Aries and wrapped her arms around the pink haired Celestial Spirits waist.
"Sorry..." This time it was Coco who was apologising, however, she wasn;t apologising to Aries, "I'm so, so sorry..."
Before Coco could say anything else, or make herself even more upset, Aries hugged her back. Aries didn't ask what was wrong, or tell Coco not to cry. She understood that sometimes bad things happened and you just had to cry about them, but it was so much easier when you had the comfort of your friends, and as Aries was the only one there, she'd just have to do for comforting the younger girl.
A/N: I wrote this for my Tumblr (I RP Coco, my Tumblr is called aceoftheracecoco if you want to check it out) and decided to post it. It's a bit rushed, but I hope everyone out there likes it anyways ^_^
