Chapter 1: She Can Feel His Pain.

Satonaka Chie brought herself to jog around the town when it comes to days like these. It was sunny that day, the sun shone brightly towards the town of Inaba, it was the perfect whether for her. As she jogged around the town, she saw a figure, alone, at the graveyard. Without thinking twice, she have noticed that it is someone she know. Who else? Hanamura Yosuke, that is. Her clumsy and pervert brunette male friend.

At the moment she stood there, she saw something else; the part of him she have never expected before. He was crying and sulking, in front of the older female's grave stone that he have loved before, Konishi Saki-Senpai of the third year. She partly understood his feelings—and his pains after he lose her—for her. But she'll change that, however. She didn't stand seeing him like this, especially when he usually always cheerful.

Without anymore further thinking—which will strain her brain—her foot suddenly took her near him, but her hands stopped her before she could reach to him. She hid behind a tree to just took a peek of him, really wanting to approached him and make him feel better, but no, she was just not the type for that.

She was more the 'physical' girl than the ones who give advices through heart-to-heart conversation. But to see Yosuke just like this, she had the urge of approaching him. She just wanted to approach him, talk to him, cheer him up, anything, that would make him feel better other than just dissolving in grief, because that won't change the fact that she died.

On the other hand, Yosuke, was crying lightly. He didn't sob, or do anything that made him looked exactly like he cried, but it's not awkward that Chie would figured him that way, 'cause she know him better than anyone did; not to mention, not even Narukami Yu. He simply cried because no one was watching, not even there are that many pedestrians passing by.

"It must've been great up there, isn't it, Senpai?" He added, smiling bitterly as those words slipped through his mouth.

"Sure is great, huh… Without suffering here and there, without have to went through everything harsh, without have to take care of a pain in the ass like me…" He muttered, letting out a sigh.

Didn't seem to notice her presence, she still watched him there carefully behind the tree. And before she know it, her foot dragged her again towards him, this time, he quickly stole a glance to the presence behind him. His eyes widen, his emotions going haywire as he saw Chie stood there; right behind him—as obvious, seeing him cried. Quickly wiping off his tears, he removed his gaze from Chie, whom he had glanced for a moment.

"Y-Yosuke, are you… All right?" She opened up, trying to comfort him.

She hesitated to move, then Yosuke responded, with the cold tone of his voice, "I'm okay. It's no need for you to concern about me."

She was surprised of the sudden attitude he made towards her. Slightly feeling annoyed, she still keep her temper around him, it's because that she cared for him, because he is her friend—or maybe something more than that, she felt…

"Hey, but—" "I'm fine, it's no big. And like I just told you, there's no need for you to concern about me," He cut her in before she could say anything for more further.

She blinked for a moment, her eyes widen—practically shocked—as she gazed at his lone figure.

She gritted her teeth, "What are you talking about, Yosuke? Why are you always acting like a jerk? I want you to be happy, and I don't like seeing you like this!" She yelled out the words she really wants to say to him, but that doesn't matter anymore. What's important now is to make him feel better—no, make him happy.

His brown eyes were large with amazement. Chie said that? I mean, what the hell? Why is she… Why's she so care about me? "Chie. You don't know how I feel. You don't know exactly, how I feel of this," He responded, still glaring at her with those cold, brown eyes.

"I DO know! I do understand how you feel, idiot! So why don't you just cut it out with this?" She yelled in rage, her eyes showed anger that she couldn't stand anymore.

"Chie, I—"

"Forget it… I'm leaving…" She suddenly cut him.

She left, running. All that he saw was, a tear from her eyes. Yes, she was crying. Yosuke wouldn't just stand to see her like that, but this time his foot just won't bring him to chase her. Guilt spread into him so suddenly. I've never seen her like this, what's gotten into her? And, she cried… What the hell… What's going on here? He let out a sigh as he kept thinking of the previous incident. Well in case, I'll just see her at school tomorrow. Maybe I should apologize to her…

Chie was running faster than ever, hoping that Yosuke wouldn't see her cry. After a moment of running, she stopped for a while in front of Junes, and she wiped out her tears off her face. That idiot… He just pisses me off, everytime. What a jerk… She thought, cursing at him. Her feelings are screwed up; sad, angry, frustrated, and it mixed together as one. She decided to just go home for now, cursing and thinking about him just won't help her at all. She took a quick glare at the famous department store in Inaba—that is, none other than Junes—then she ran home, without even wanted to think about the 'Prince of Junes'; Hanamura Yosuke.

Okay~ That's it! Sorry for the disappointment because it's not long enough. I'll try my best and do the longer ones. Please leave review, and thank you!~ :D
