Chapter 1- Lavender

第1章 - ラベンダー

Winter, a season of pure coldness, especially here in Osaka where some temperatures drop to minus ten or fifteen. I wasn't a wintery type person, I instead enjoyed summer, when all the beautiful flowers blooming along with sunny beams streaming down, making a field of flowers feel like heaven.

But instead of the heavenly summer weather that I enjoyed so much, Osaka was instead surrounded by thick snow, icicles and freezing cold weather.

"You must really hate winter." Kura-chan chuckled at me, seeing as I jumped around the field, which was once bloomed by snapdragons and Camellia's.

"I really hate winter." I shivered, "It's just so dull."

Kura-chan bursted out into laughter as I glowed at him, bending down and grabbing a handful of snow before shaping it down to a perfect sized ball.

"Don't laugh Kura!" I exclaimed, throwing the snowball straight at my snickering boyfriend

Blocking the ball of snow with his arm, Kura-chan successfully shattered the snowball back to its original sandy form.

"Alright, alright Mrs. Shiraishi." Kura-chan joked between his chuckles, "You win."

I gaped at him, mouth hanging open like a oven door, "Do you want me to jump on you now?" I remarked, hands on my hips, "I am pretty heavy."

"If you insist so." Kura-chan sniggered

Raising an eyebrow at him, I twirled around and slowly walked for a few meters before stopping and turning back around with a cheeky grin.

"You better catch me." I called out

"Can't guarantee that sweetheart." Kura-chan shouted back, getting up from his current sitting and leaning (with a support of an arm) position.

I giggled, "If you don't catch me Captain Shiraishi," I teased, "I am going to make you run a hundred laps around your house when we get back."

"Ohh," Kura-chan made a funny face, "Scary."

"I am coming!" I warned, launching myself into a running speed before arriving near Kura-chan before throwing myself at him

A pair of hands caught my waist and pulled me into a small twirl before pushing me close into his warm chest, welcoming me into coziness

"Looks like I am not only good at hitting things away, but also good at catching things." Kura-chan murmured into my ear

I smiled, "Maybe you should play basketball as well, since you're so good at catching stuff."

Kura-chan chuckled, "You never fail to amuse me."

Pulling back out of the embrace, I gently brushed through Kura-chan sandy blonde hair, which today, seemed more like pure blonde under the reflecting rays of the pure white snow.

"Looks like your hair has grown longer." I announced, hands tangling through his soft hair, making small bits of snow roll and drop down.

"Trying to grow it out a little," Kura-chan explained, "You know, get a side fringe that covers my eye and then get the ladies going after me like mad."

Laughing, I untangled my hands from Kura-chan's hair, but instead tenderly clasp onto his cheek , "I am sure you'll succeed in that." I declared

Gently leaning into my hand, Kura-chan muttered back, "Maybe not, as I already have the most amazing girlfriend in the whole world."

"Now the sweet talk."

~20 minutes later~

Finally deciding to leave the snow covered field, Kura-chan caringly held my hand and began leading the way back to his house.

"Why does it have to be so cold up here?" I grumbled, wrapping my scarf around my bare neck as the freezing wind began to attack the skin

"It's the start of winter, what do you expect?"

Sighing and hugging closer onto Kura-chan's arm, I rested my head onto his comfy shoulder, inhaling in his light lavender smell at the same time.

"Ne, Kura-chan, why do you always smell like lavender?" I lightly murmured

Letting out a soft chuckle, Kura-chan replied, "Ask my mum, she's the one that does all the washing."

I grinned, "Lavender is a good smell, refreshing in a way."

We walked in silence for the rest of the way back to Kura-chan's house. Neither of us making a sound as I inhaled more of Kura-chan's lavender sweet smell.

~ 10 minutes later~

"We're home," we both announced in synchronicity as we stepped into the warm heated house before chucking off our shoes

Yuki-chan's high soprano voice was automatically heard from the living room, "I am in here Nii-san!"

Sighing, Kura-chan took off his furry coat before trotting inside the house and straight to the living room. Quickly trailing behind him, I followed his footsteps.

"I though that you're doing your home-"

Kura-chan suddenly stopped and glared into the living room. Curiously, I glanced over his shoulder, wondering what made him stop so immediately.

Oshitari Kenya sat in the middle of the room, smirking at our reaction.

"What're you doing in my house Kenya?" Kura-chan questioned, still glaring at him, "With my sister in addition."

Oshitari bursted out into a fit of laughter, earning another darkened glare from Kura-chan.

"Ehhhh…." Oshitari sweat dropped after seeing his captain's death glare, "I-I am just here to see if I can borrow your English notes from last night, seeing that I feel asleep…"

Kura-chan let out a small scowl before hanging up his jacket on a nearby coat hanger.

"Serves you right for sleeping in English. Good thing sensei didn't catch you." Kura-chan scolded

"Yeah," Oshitari agreed, "But could just help me…just this once?"

Letting out a deep sigh, Kura-chan warned "Just this once."

Oshitari nodded back eagerly, "Just this once Shiraishi."

"I'll go get my notes." Kura-chan informed before leaving the room

Waiting till Kura-chan was out of sight, I quickly hung my coat up and sat down next to Oshitari who exhaled after holding a extremely long breath.

"Wow," I began, "Looks like you really got yourself into something. Otherwise you won't ask for help."

Oshitari flashed a smirk at me, "Yeah, the assignment is due next Wednesday and I haven't even started it!" he exclaimed

Over on the other side, Yuki-chan let out a twinkly laugh, "I never seen Kenya Nii-san in this kind of stage before." She said in between her chuckles

"You bet," Oshitari grumbled back, "If I don't finish this assignment on time, the damn sensei is going to crack."

This time, both Yuki-chan and I bursted out into laughter, "Why don't you try the method that my brother uses? Do homework first thing when you get home?" Yuki-chan suggested

"Shiraishi's method?" Oshitari repeated, "Nah, it sounds to girly."

"Ahem-"

Oshitari suddenly froze up and tensed

"What did you just call me?" Kura-chan's hollow and dark voice suddenly boomed

Slowly turning our heads around, we came face to face with a extremely pissed looking kura-chan. Immediately, Oshitari's face paled, clearly scared of his captain.

"Ah n-n-nothing Shiraishi…." Oshitari sheepishly muttered

Quickly getting up, I crossed over to Kura-chan's side and held onto his hand, "Mah, relax Kura-cha." I ushered, "Oshitari surely didn't mean it."

Raising a sharp eyebrow at Oshitari, Kura-chan handed him over the sheets of precious English notes," You better look after them Kenya." Kura-chan lectured, "Or else…"

"Y-yeah," Oshitari quietly took the paper, "Thanks Shiraishi."

"Thank Kagami," Kura-chan remarked, "If she wasn't here, your head will be rolling on the floor right now."

I frowned, "Don't scare him anymore Kura-chan." I grumbled

A soft giggle was heard form Yuki-chan who was watching us the whole time

"My Nii-san is scaring isn't he?" Yuki-chan softly muttered to Oshitari

Oshitari's cheeky grin came back on, "That's what makes him the captain." He declared in a playful voice, "And that's what also makes him my best friend."

Kura-chan chuckled and melted into a smile, "Oshitari Kenya, the speed star. Where would the world be without you?"

Grinning, Oshitari pulled out his phone, "It's already six?" he muttered, "Looks like I need to get home."

"Not so fast." I cut through, "It's snowing like mad outside."

Oshitari came and joined me next to the window, "Man." He breathed after seeing white snow falling like unending droplets of rain, "How am I going to get home? I didn't even bring a umbrella!"

From behind me, I heard Kura-chan let out a sigh, "Stay for a little longer than. The snow might stop soon." He insisted, "And besides, my parents aren't home for the weekend so your welcome to stay over."

Oshitari groaned, "Well I might stay for a little longer than. Just need to inform my parents."

Kura-chan nodded as Oshitari rushed off to make phone calls. Chuckling after Oshitari , I returned my attention back onto Kura-chan as I softly stepped forward and wrapped my arms around him, pulling myself into his warm chest.

Seeing this, Yuki-chan let out a small 'Ugh' before turning around and flicking onto the TV, leaving us with some privacy.

"You sure do treat Oshitari like a brother." I whispered

Automatically, kura-chan encircled his arms around my waist, "I do oddly seem to care for him more than care for anyone else on the team."

"And that's what makes him a best friend to you right?" I murmured, leaning my forehead into his

Grinning a gentle grin, Kura-chan leaned into me and pressed his lips against mine, sharing a soft sweet kiss before Oshitari stormed back in.

"Eh, did I interrupt something?" he awkwardly asked, after walking in on a bad moment

Breaking apart, we both faced Oshitari, a soft blush growing on my cheeks.

"What's the news Oshitari?' Kura-chan questioned, ignoring the teasing snicker Oshitari gave us

"Dad was wondering if I could maybe spend the night here." Oshitari informed, "Seeing that the snow won't stop till tomorrow morning."

Kura-chan sighed and nodded , "That's fine Kenya, and the guest room is free anyways."

"Really?" Oshitari's eyes lit up

"I am not going to let you sleep on the streets."

Oshitari remarked, "Thanks Shiraishi. I owe you one."

"Ehhhh" Yuki-chan's voice suddenly came through, "Kenya Nii-san is staying over? Cool!" she turned around and exclaimed, eyes dazzling like stars.

Suddenly, Oshitari's face dropped and turned to me, "But where on earth are you going to sleep?" He exclaimed out, babbling like a lost child, "I mean, if I take your spot, you won't a place to sleep!"

I laughed, "It's fine Oshitari, I don't need to sleep in the guest room."

Sadly, that made Oshitari blab on more, "No, I can't do that! Just take someone's spot like that!"

Kura-chan raised an eyebrow at the flabbergasting Oshitari, "It's ok Oshitari, and she can share a bed with me."

Finally stopping, Oshitari stared at me, "You sure?"

I nodded, "Yep, so don't worry like a mother Oshitari."

"A mother?"

~2 hours later~

You know what I hate the most? Wet hair on a cold night. When you finally think that a nice hot shower could warm your spirits up, you get dripping wet hair clinging to your back, wetting your nice warm pajamas.

Groaning and trying to dry my absolute wet hair, I angrily stormed Kura-chan's bedroom, growling at my long damp ebony hair.

"You ok?" Kura-chan's soft voice rang through my ears, calming me down

"Yeah," I replied back quietly, still trying to wrap a towel around my drenched hair

Kura-chan chuckled and raised a delicate eyebrow at me, "I am not very convinced."

I grumbled and pointed to my hair, "I just hate it when my hair is soggy wet and damp."

Sighing, Kura-chan gently placed down the book he was reading before getting up and reaching for the towel that was wrapped around my long hair.

"I'll dry it for you." He urged, "I love you and your hair."

"But my hair is really hard to dry Kura-chan." I retorted, "Specially on a winter's night."

From behind, Kura-chan let out a small laugh,

"I don't mind at all. Your hair is perfect…Just like you."

~Half an hour later~

Crushing down onto kura-chan's amazingly soft bed, I dug my face into my assigned pillow, happily enjoying the lavender scent, which lay upon the surface of the pillow.

"Tired?"

Looking up, I smiled at Kura-chan who just trotted into his room after a shower, "Yeah, I am nearly dead."

Laughing, Kura-chan carefully climbed onto bed, carefully embracing me along the way.

"Sleep tight then." He whispered into my ear as I slowly closed my eyes.

"I am sorry I am falling asleep on you." I murmured back, vaguely huddling closer into my wonderful boyfriend.

"No worries."

And with that, a soft kiss met my lips before I was pulled in by a dream's blackness.
