Butterflies

Butterflies. Karin always got them when she saw "her prince." But she never thought she'd feel them for the sexist male, named Kazune, but after meeting him in the bath at the hot springs, something inside her changed, shifted, or something. She knows that she loves Kazune with all her might, and now, Karin isn't able to even look Kazune in the eye without her face going a shade pinker.

Butterflies. Himeka always had them. They made her squirm with happiness. Of course, the cause of her butterflies was Kazune. Himeka found that the butterflies made her able to wear a smile most of the time, even though she knew her life was in danger. They make her really happy. Partially because they only affect her when she's with Kazune, and partially because they're bugs.

Butterflies. Michiru got them when he saw Karin. To him, she was the cutest thing in the entire world. She was energetic, determined, and a complete ditz. Michiru adored everything about her, down to her littlest toe. Even with adoring her to the smallest detail, Michiru found he also got butterflies for another person. Another male person... Kazune to be exact. Micchi wasn't very surprised about liking Kazune; after all he was the doctor's son! Michiru just didn't think he would like him this much.

Butterflies. Kazune got them. Not when he saw Himeka, although she sure wished. Not when he saw Michiru, like he wished. And not even when he saw Karin, like she wished. Kazune got them when he saw all of them. Kazune figured out that he fell in love with all the people he was close to. He didn't like it, but it was true. Kazune managed to bottle up his feelings for a long time. At the moment, though, he is unable to look anyone in the eye, or his face will go bright red.

Butterflies. Karin giggles when she feels them.

Butterflies. Himeka loves the way they make her happy.

Butterflies. Michiru wants to keep them close.

Butterflies. Kazune thinks they're a weakness.

Regardless of whether they like them or not, they all have them. The butterflies.


-cough-
Michiru is better in the books.
You know what I realized? Kazune is probably scared of them. Ha.
